STOKER SPEAKS!
desert_dilbert23 March 2018
This episode is ABSOLUTELY REMARKABLE because the actual L.A. Firefighter, Mike Stoker, (who is an Engineer, meaning he drives the pumper and operates the pump equipment once at the incident) SPEAKS! In almost EVERY episode, he's on camera, but has NO lines. This episode features him actually speaking with his own voice! Will wonders never cease!

There is much blah blah blah in this episode, but I don't want to give anything away.

I will say, sadly so, there is no hemp! Holy rolickers! L.A. Firefighters fighting a fire in a 3 story Amityville Horror house (rather than a 2 story like in the movie), never using any hemp? How is this possible?

Marco decides to make enchiladas. No, not racist...

Chet loses his badge...

Henry...well, he does his Henry thing.

A little dash of cold-warism...there is an appearance of an Estes Rocket, a Pershing Nuclear Short to Medium range missile model. Complete with launching pad and non-regulated engine! Chet get the worst of this!

All in all, a decent episode.
