第 2 季，第 4 集: Still unable to shake the unsettling visions that he's been having since he stopped drinking, Tommy's anger over having his truck towed causes him to attack the beat cop he holds responsible. Though he gets the best of the officer in their brief fight, Tommy comes away the worse for wear when he breaks his hand. Then, after letting everyone at his AA meeting know just what he thinks of them and their problems, he heads for a rendezvous with Sheila. But when he has trouble performing and Sheila insists that he take a drink to get over it, Tommy leaves instead. While spending the night together has Franco and Laura wondering about what comes next, Tommy's dad finds that, instead of being murdered over some unpaid gambling debts, Uncle Teddy is making big money working as a plus-size catalog model. As Sean offers to take Mike to an informal shooting range to blow off some steam over his being dumped by Teresa, Tommy becomes a hero on his first day back at work with his daring rescue of a little girl and her cat. And after Laura formally complains about a derogatory slur hurled at her by Lou, listening to Tommy and the others defend their verbal assaults on one another as a form of camaraderie causes her to question her reaction. As Franco works to keep up his steady supply of painkillers by continuing to date a nurse, the trip to the firing range with Sean goes awry when Mike accidentally shoots a cat. And though the tall and attractive vet they seek out for help is unable to save the mortally wounded animal, she makes sure that Mike doesn't leave without her phone number. Finally, after another round of disturbing hallucinations makes his struggle to stay sober even more difficult, Tommy is stunned when his daughter, Colleen, shows up at the firehouse.
