"A stupid cow burnt this city to the ground." "Exactly." "The challenge would be to get away with it more than once." "It would take a very special cow to do it over and over" "And over again for years." "Go ahead." "Show me how you do it." "[inhales deeply]" "Always underestimated."

"Years ago, he killed peter mills' father," "And burned chief boden and who knows how many others." "As far as i'm concerned," "We don't sleep until this lunatic roasts." "I hear that." "So how do we handle him?" "We get under his skin." "Make him feel us everywhere he looks." "Arson is hard to prove unless you catch him in the act," "So that's what we're gonna do."

"I don't know what to tell you, sergeant." "It happened so fast..." "Just so i'm clear, the guy you were tailing got free" "From your sight, snuck out a bathroom window," "And then molotov cocktailed your squad car." "Okay, the details are a bit more complex then that" "But basically yeah, yes, sergeant." "And you didn't arrest him why?" "Because halstead and lindsay said we need something bigger." "Bigger than one of my squad cars?" "These things happen." "The important thing is that you two are unharmed." "Listen, don't let the behavior of others affect your day today." "Do some good out there." "All right, out with it." "Who is that man and what is he holding over you?" "Fine." "He works for the city bureau" "Of disciplinary action or something." "I don't know."

"Chief." "Hey." "So here's the map from the ifo logs." "With all the suspected arsons going back to 1970." "We don't know how far gish goes back with all this," "But figured the more information you had, the better." "His name's not gish." "He's been using a fake identity for a long time." "We don't know how long." "He torched a patrol car yesterday." " You serious?" " Yeah." "It's actually a good sign." "Our plan is working." "This helps too." "Atwater, why don't you and me cross-reference all these fires" "With the name ross mcgowan and see what pops." "Pardon me." "What did you say?" "Ross mcgowan, gish's birth name." "That is not his birth name." "What's that, chief?" "Ross mcgowan was a firefighter." "He died in the same fire" "That killed peter mills' father, henry." "Same place i got my scars." "So mcgowan's a fake id too." "Going back 20 years." "Who is this guy?" "Huh?" "Thanks, guys." "We'll update you as soon as there's anything to update." "Yeah." "Please don't tell me this means you guys aren't" "Megan, look at me." "This prick is going down." "Hey, sis." "Voight's just frustrated because we're all taking" "This a bit personally now."

"Haven't you come full circle on voight." "Well, what are you doing?" "My job." "[scoffs]" "Man, everyone keeps saying that." "Because it's the truth." "You may not want to hear it," "But i believe in the system, gabby." "Because at the end of the day, it works." "Now, we're gonna catch gish in the act," "And he's gonna spend the rest of his pathetic life" "Right where he belongs." "Locked up." "Alone." "In the darkness, like you said." "I really hope you're right." "Before he kills somebody else." "Because if he does, that's on you." "." "All right, we know his age," "We know his weight, we know his face."

"I've worked with sergeant platt for a while now," "So i think i have some good perspective." "Okay, she would kill me for saying this, but..." "She is an amazing woman and cop." "Nobody cares more about this district" "Than sergeant trudy platt, okay?" "She runs it firmly and fairly" "And with a..." "Just ton of charisma." "Hmm." "Charisma."

"I've been looking to trade this in anyway." "Let's go." "(gish) danger..." "Flammable..." "Gas..." "Under..." "Pressure..." "Do you know why arson is so hard to prove?" "Why don't you tell us?" "Because fire eats itself." "Destroying all the evidence." "It's as if you had a gun..." "Used it in a murder," "And then the gun self-destructed." "Poof!" "Why don't you tell us more?" "About the fires you started?" "Get it out in the open?" "You know you want to." "Excuse me." "I tried." "[register beeping]" "I can take you over here." "I'll wait." "How you doing today?" "Dandy." "And you?" "Oh, getting by." "Oh, um..." "I hope you don't mind my asking, but..." "A fire?" "I was trapped in one at my old school." "I don't remember much about it." "Lucky to be alive, they tell me." "Was it the school fire at august ele" "Elementary on 38th, about... 8 or 9 years ago?" "Yeah, it was." "(gish) i remember that." "A nasty one." "Glad you made it out okay." "(woman) me too." "And thank you." "This will be $62.67." "You know what?" "I decided i don't want any of it." "I'm going to the grocery store next if you want to come."

"We know he changed ids at least twice" "Going back 20 years." "What do we know about psychopaths?" "They work up to their first kills" "And usually aren't very careful in the early going." "So either gish burned himself starting a fire," "Or more likely," "He suffered an inciting incident," "And that's what set him off." "Exactly." "In the interview room," "Gish mentioned men who kill their own families." "Let's look at some of the earlier fires" "In the bridgeport area," "See if maybe there was one" "That took out a family except for one little boy." "Hey, we got one!" "Fire in bridgeport in 1975."
