Ambulance[]

Later, the two take a lunch break before returning to work. She talks to Scott about her past relationship with Colin, which they broke up 6 months ago.
Later, while walking around in LA, Cam and Scott were informed about a shootout at the LA Federal & Trust Bank. They took their ambulance and head towards the bank after heading from LAPD Officer Mark that his partner, Zach, was recently shot and needs medic. They meet up with them and takes Zach to the ambulance. While leaving the bank, two bank robbers: a longtime criminal Danny Sharp and his veteran brother, Will Sharp; hijack the ambulance hijacked the ambulance with Danny forcing Scott out of the vehicle and Will wearing his uniform and driving the vehicle. While Will steals the ambulance, Danny holds Cam hostage and has her cooperate by saving Zach's life or she will be killed. As they drive out of the parking lot, the Los Angeles Police Department and their undercover officers soon surround the vehicle soon but Danny forces Will and Cam to make an excuse to drive Zach to the hospital and manages to exit the parking lot unharmed. The two brothers hide in an alleyway due to LAPD helicopters trying to spot them. As this happens, Cam tries to flee after using a fire extinguisher on Will, but Danny stops her. Shortly, Zach starts flatlining and Will also has Cam go back in the ambulance to save his life. Cam then flips Danny off saying "fuck you!"
The Los Angeles Police Department and the Special Investigation Section led by Captain Monroe, sends police cars and helicopters to go after the brothers leading into a chase throughout LA. Cam gets Danny to help her use a defibrillator and Will to transfer some of his blood to Zach. The chase leads to the LA Convention Center where Danny tries to shoot one of the pursuing officers. When Cam stops him, Danny angrily scolds her for ruining his attempt saying that anyone can get hurt. Going inside the Convention center’s parking lot, Danny attempts to throw Cam off the ambulance as the police surround them in every direction. However, the police are forced to retreat when Nitro, Captain Monroe’s dog, is inside Mark’s vehicle.
Zach then starts to bleed out and Cam gets help from Colin, who is currently on lunch break before heading back to work at Mount Sinai, and two trauma guys (Dr. Farcy and Dr. Resnick), to help her with Will assisting her while Danny drives. During the operation, Zach unexpectedly wakes up and freaks out when he learns that Cam's hand is in his stomach but Will knocks him unconscious which resulted him being scolded by Danny. Cam is able to successfully perform the surgery using her clamp despite a ruptured spleen and losing contact with Colin and his other colleagues due to the laptop she used to FaceTime them ran out of battery.
Meanwhile, Captain Monroe, believing that Zach is dead and unaware that the surgery was a success, decides to move forward and prepares a SWAT team to wait for both Danny and Will to pass and kill them simultaneously despite knowing that Cam is still alive. However, Cam contacts FBI Agent Anson Clark, an old friend of Danny in college, that Zach is still alive and warns both Danny and Will about the snipers as she wants to keep Zach alive. They are able to outrun it despite taking a few hits as well as causing other cop cars to crash with their maneuvers. Danny, having had enough of Cam, attempts to kill her, causing the two brothers to fight, also monitored by the police. Anson also begins to be familiar with Will, having heard Cam say his name and finds out his involvement in the bank robbery. After the scuffle, Cam begins finding out Will’s marriage to Amy as he began video chatting her and their son. He also explains to Cam on Amy's situation and her upcoming surgery and why he took part in Danny's bank heist.
The brothers head down to the Los Angeles River, with Cam asking if they're on an LA Tour because she still wants to go to the hospital. The ambulance gets into the chase with the helicopters at the river, then drive on the opposite lane of the interstate, creating multiple accidents before meeting with Danny's friends to help them distract the police and FBI, which results in Monroe’s death. While the plan is in motion, the brothers heads to a hideout belonging to crime boss, Papi. Will tells Cam not to leave the ambulance before he and Danny heads to Papi, who is distraught of his son's death after a scuffle with Mark, and wants the brothers to leave Cam and Zach for him to deal with. While this was happening, Zach wakes up and Cam catches up with him, with her informing him that he was some of Will's blood. He finds Mark's gun and gives to Cam as they realize that Papi's men wants to kill them. When Will refuses to cooperate with Papi, he and Danny teams up to kill Papi and his crew. This gets the police's attention after hearing gunfire. In the chaos, Cam accidentally shoots Will using Zach's gun after mistaking him for a sniper who was going to kill them. Danny takes the ambulance to a hospital and orders Cam to save Will’s life just as she saved the cop as the police go after them more.
They arrived at the hospital. When Cam reveals that she was the one who shot Will, he gets enraged of this. Danny vows to kill Cam for Will's injuries along with himself on live television before confronting the police. Will, left with no other choice, reluctantly shoots Danny in the back to ensure to him what Cam did was an accident, thus saving her life. The police begin to pin him to the ground and arrest him next to the injured Danny as they are both handcuffed, while Cam is escorted away. Shortly, Danny's dies from his injuries while apologizing to Will for dragging him into the drama. Amy, along with her and Will's son, arrive at the scene after being escorted by a cop and informed of Will's action. She begs someone to helped the injured Will and the police doesn't do anything due to Will's recent crimes, despite that the emergency room is right in front of them. Despite Clark telling Cam to forget Will, she states that her job isn't done yet. She informs Mark that Will helped her saved Zach life. Convinced by this, he and the police uncuffs Will and takes in inside for a surgery while Cam secretly gives some of the heist money to Amy for her surgery. She also asks her to forgive him. She meets up with Scott again, who wanted to know if she's okay. While in the hospital, she sees that Will is recovering and later, checks up on Lindsay and is tearfully relieved to see that she's doing ok before collecting her things and leaving the hospital at the end of the day.
