The episode began with Cruz, Otis, Chaplain and Herrmann, who watched the final game before the PeeWee Hockey Championship game, in which Herrmann’s son tripped over his feet, and didn’t score, as Herrmann would like to think. However, their team managed to win, which meant that they were going to play for the championship that weekend.
As soon as everyone came to work, Boden informed Mills that he was back on squad for now as Rice was going to be acting lieutenant for that shift as Lieutenant Severide was still recovering from his injuries. Boden then told them that he had gotten a certain paramedic to ride with Brett, while Peter was with squad, but after hearing who it was, Dawson ended up riding with Brett for several shifts as they did not like the substitute paramedic.
They then went on their first call, in which Mills and Rice managed to bring down a man who had gotten impaled on a lamp post.
At the hospital, Severide insisted that he was ready to go back on shift in seventy two hours, and went over to April's place after discovering that she wasn’t on the schedule. He then learned that she was taking a short break to see the world, especially after the attack that happened on the hospital’s emergency room.
Meanwhile, Mills' mother and sister swung by, and told him all about the restaurant that their grandfather had left hem in North Carolina. He then got surprised as they announced that they wanted to give it a shot and were moving to North Carolina to do so. However, while they were on break, Mills agreed to help Rice out with his upcoming family dinner by volunteering to make him some TexMex Lasagna.
While this happened, after a call due to a rumble in a school cafeteria in which Dawson knocked down a kid who later got arrested by Officer Burgess as he was swinging a chair at Brett, the two learned that their impalement victim was an importer from Miami, who disappeared after taking a phone call during a client meeting.
The next day, during Rice’s party, Rice made Mills realize that family was indeed everything and it made him realize that he really did enjoy cooking.
Later that night, Cruz and Otis got thrown out of Molly’s after they asked Herrmann to bench his son in the upcoming game.
Meanwhile April visited Severide before she left, and the two slept together.
While this happened, Mills informed Boden that he was going to leave Firehouse 51 in order to be with his family. After announcing this to the entire house, Severide, Casey and Boden asked him to make his final decision after the end of his last shift.
After saving a man who had gotten involved in a car crash due to a sudden heart attack, Cruz wondered why Mills would give everything up for North Carolina. However, after discovering that their impalement victim had been trying to commit suicide due to the fact the woman that he loved and had been separated from for four years had died, he realized that he had made the right decision in leaving.
That Saturday morning, Herrmann decided to bench his son, and became surprised that his son had wanted to be benched all along.
Meanwhile, Casey swung by Stilettos and became uncomfortable when Jack Nesbitt informed him that he wanted him to talk to some shady looking men who wanted him to build the other new chains of the club.
He then went over to Molly’s where they celebrated the fact that Herrmann’s team had won the championship, and as it was Mills' farewell party, in which presents were given, and the entire firehouse group hugged him.
After Mills left, Dawson followed him as he had not gotten her present yet, and to her surprise, he kissed her! He then told her that she knew where to find him if ever she needed a change in scenery.
The next day, he cleaned out his locker, said goodbye to Pouch, and after one long look at the trucks, left for his new life in North Carolina.
