Can't Handle The Truth

Gage becomes obsessed with truth telling.

A pretty good episode. The first rescue concerns a gas explosion in a home. It turns comedic when the slightly injured couple (Michael Lerner and Beverly Sanders, two performers who often did comedy guest roles on shows) talk about his cigar smoking. A young boy is brought choking but the doctors can't figure out why. A young man may be paralyzed from doing a high dive from an apartment building.

The final, tense rescue is a home fire and a baby and an old man. Shocking scene on a staircase. One of the stories ends tragically.

Final comedy moments at the end involve Chet talking about Gage's new girl friend.

Trivia
On the Structure Fire response on Miller Canyon Road, Engine 34 & Engine 9 are also dispatched to assist Station 51. In reality, Engine 34 is stationed out of Hawaiian Gardens in LA County, and Station 9 was based of off Makee Street in South Central Los Angeles until its closing in the 1990s. It housed Engine 9, Squad 9, and Squad 209, the latter being a modified Los Angeles County Fire Dept. Rescue Squad, Dodge Tradesman Van Paramedic unit placed into service in 1971.

Goofs
In the beginning John is driving the Squad as it leaves the firehouse to go to the explosion, when they reach the scene of the explosion, Roy jumps out of the drivers seat.
