‘Station 19’ Season 5 Episode 4: Crisis One intervention training with Diane Lewis
When Dean and Diane gather Station 19 and Station 23 together for Crisis One training, it doesn’t go as planned. Diane immediately calls Andy and Sullivan up to role-play the marital dispute section. However, she has no idea that they are on the verge of a divorce. The couple gets into a very heated argument, but before it’s resolved, there’s a fire call. Maya Bishop (Danielle Savre) calls Sullivan to head out on the call with her. When Diane suggests that Captain Beckett (Josh Randall) fill in for Sullivan, Lieutenant Ruiz takes his place, but again they take things too far.
Dean is frustrated with the relationship dramas, but he attempts to have Jack Gibson (Grey Damon) and Lieutenant Maddox (Shane Hartline) work through a role play. Dean tries to help Maddox, who is role-playing a finance employee who barricaded himself into a room. However, Maddox takes it too far and begins acting like Hulk.
Later, Ben Warren (Jason George) talks to Captain Pat Aquino (Alain Uy) through a role play. They successfully empathize and present an alternative plan of action. When Dean gets a Crisis One call, he asks Jack to help him in the field. Jack tries to help a man with Autism get off of a public bus. Although the man won’t let Jack touch him, he explains how the man can clean his hand on his own. Instead of the situation escalating, Jack talks him through it and gets him to walk off the bus independently.
Diane insists that the training was a success, but all Dean can see is the work needed.
