A New Recruit[]
- [Oliver Duffy climbs a ladder, while three other firefighters carry another ladder]
- Cornelius Burns: Okay, recruit. What is your name?
- Chase McCain: Pete... Peterson... sir?
- Cornelius Burns: Right, Pete Peterson, being a Fire Officer is all about team effort. TEAM EFFORT! Isn't that right, McGurky?
- McGurky: W-what?
- Cornelius Burns: Don't help him! It means knowing what your fellow officer is thinking. What's my favorite flavor of cake, Pete Peterson?
- Chase McCain: Er, chocolate?
- Cornelius Burns: EVEN THE NEW RECRUIT KNOWS! Ah... Well then, Pete Peterson, we'd better start your training...
- [Chase begins his firefighter training by using a fire extinguisher to throw water everywhere, until Cornelius interrupts him]
- Cornelius Burns: What are you doing, man? I haven't given you any instructions yet!
- Chase McCain: Sorry, I got a little excited.
- Cornelius Burns: Fire extinguishers are not toys! They are not to be played with! Follow me over here.
- [He gets on a skateboard and rides it using the fire extinguisher instead of a leg]
- Cornelius Burns: This is Officer Lopez-Delgado.
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: [Spanish] Hello!
- Cornelius Burns: He'll give you your basic training. I've got to write a talk on the importance of BUYING THE RIGHT FLAVOR OF BIRTHDAY CAKE!
A Shiny New Uniform[]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Alright, Pete is it? This is wonderful. First of all, we'd better get you looking like a fire officer, hadn't we, huh? There is a shiny new uniform in the middle garage. If you can get the door open...
- [When approaching the yellow lever at the first door]
- Chase McCain: I guess I just pull this lever?
- [When opening the first door]
- Chase McCain: Yeah, that would have been too easy.
- [If the player approaches the second garage before painting the door]
- Chase McCain: Looks like someone forgot to finish painting that garage door. That garage door would look a lot better with a lick of paint. Someone really oughta finish painting that garage door.
Starting Firefighter Training[]
- [After getting the Fireman suit]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Well don't you look as bright as a button? Ok. We are going to start things out nice and easy. Oh no! Look! A raging inferno has erupted!
- [When trying to put out the fire]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: That's great! Well done! You will be an asset to us, as there have been an unusual amount of fires of late.
- [After putting out the fire]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Well done! Wait a minute! That door...is shut! [He leaves an axe on the ground] And an innocent valve handle is trapped behind it! And look here! A fire axe! Do you think you could somehow use this axe to get through that door? Don't worry, you won't get into trouble.
- [If the player approaches the first Brad Hoggle]
- Brad Hoggle 1: Heeeere's Petey! Haha!
- [After opening the first boarded up door]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Well aren't you big and strong? Pick up the valve in there.
- [When grabbing the green valve]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Gooood. Great heavens! Look! One of your soon-to-be comrades has accidentally turned their hose pressure up too high! But who could help him? Who might have some kind of... valve... Yes. Do you see where I'm going with this? Some kind of valve to lower the pressure?!
- [After closing the fire hydrant]
- Brad Hoggle 2: Oof!
- Brad Hoggle 3: Alright! You lasted ages! That's gotta be a record!
- Brad Hoggle 2: Eurgh...
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: [Spanish] Very good! [English] You made short work of that, didn't you? Let us go to the next area, shall we? What excitement could await us in there? [He runs towards the gates] Open the gates!
Saving the Firefighters[]
- Firefighter 1: Oh no! Look!
- Firefighter 2: Several of your co-workers are trapped on that building!
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Am I not a most excellent actor? Now, tell these other officers which way to carry the trampoline... ...so you can catch your stranded friends.
- [If Ramon asks the savior firefighters to go to the left]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Left a bit!
- [If Ramon asks the savior firefighters to go to the right]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Go right! Right! Keep going right!
- [Upon arrival at a designated place]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Get ready! Stop! Wait there! Good work!
- [When a firefighter in danger jumps on the trampoline]
- Firefighter 1: Geronimo!
- Firefighter 2: Woo-hoo!
- Firefighter 3: Yaaaay!
- Firefighter 4: Weee!
- [When saving a firefighter]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Haha! Excellent catch! Got him! Nicely done!
- [When saving the last firefighter]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: And that is the last one! Well done!
Putting Out the Fires[]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Now that they are safely down, we can put out those fires up there! But they are too far and too ferocious for your own extinguisher. But not for these! [He uses a control panel to reveal two water cannons] Yes. They are impressive, are they not? Say "hello" to my massive friends! Hop on to one of them!
- [When climbing one of the water cannons]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Excellent! The water cannon can squirt a lot higher than your extinguisher can.
- [When putting out half of the fires]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: That is half of them. Aren't you Officer Awesome?
- [After putting out the nine fires]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: And there you go! That wasn't so hard, was it?
Rescuing Pompom-Moggins[]
- [Ramon pulls a yellow lever to open a red door and reveal a box]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Quickly! A most urgent situation has arisen!
- Chase McCain: What is it?!- Oh, you're acting again, aren't you?
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Yeees. Our station mascot, Admiral Pompom-Moggins The Third, has become trapped on a ledge!
- [The camera pans to Pompom-Moggins trapped on a ledge. Then it goes back to Chase and Ramon]
- Chase McCain: You want me to rescue a cat?
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Oh yes, now you will truly learn what it is to be a Fire Officer in LEGO City. To rescue cats is our highest calling. Because they're usually on the top of buildings. But first, you will need some way to get up to him... Hmm...?
- [If the player takes a long time to build a ladder]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Build a ladder! Go on!
- [When trying to climb the ladder]
- Chase McCain: I hope my training's almost finished, I've still got to get to the Fireboat. Then, once Vinnie's got the boat I can follow him to Rex...
- [Upon reaching the blue walkway on the second floor]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Quickly! Hurry! It is almost time for Admiral Pompom's nap!
- Chase McCain: Is this why there was a stinky fish in the pocket of my uniform?
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Yes! Also in case you get hungry.
- Chase McCain: Yeuck!
- [When clinging to the ceiling on the third floor]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: Admiral Pompom took over from our previous mascot, Commander Claws. And believe me, Commander Claws earned his name. He was quite the contract negotiator.
I'll Wait for You on the Chief's Birthday[]
- [After rescuing Pompom-Moggins]
- Ramon Lopez-Delgado: You saved him! Okay, well, we're all done here. I'll see you inside for the Chief's birthday party. There is lots of food!
This Place is Nice[]
- Chase McCain: Wow! They've done this place up really nice! Huh? Maybe if we did the same for Dunby's birthday he wouldn't be such a grumpy-pants.
How is your New Job Going?[]
- [Upon receiving a message from Vinnie]
- Vinnie Pappalardo: Hey, Chasey! How you settling into your "new job"?
- Chase McCain: Good, but I'm gonna have to get the Fire Chief out of his office so I can open the door to the boathouse.
- Vinnie Pappalardo: I'm sure you won't disappoint me, kid. The last person who disappointed me bought the farm, y'know?
- Chase McCain: You mean-?
- Vinnie Pappalardo: Yeah. Even after I told him it was terrible investment. Anyway, don't sweat the Fire Chief thing. You'll figure it out, kid. Everybody has a weakness. [He cuts the call]
Will Burns Leave His Office?[]
- [If the player approaches Weingartner before destroying his table]
- Jessie Weingartner: Who would have thought being a fire fighter would involve so much paperwork!?
- Charlotte Hannon: Not me! There are like a hundred different forms just for rescuing cats!
- Jessie Weingartner: I know! Speaking of which, d'you have a thirty-seven-B? It's the one for short-haired tabby-cats up an oak tree.
- Charlotte Hannon: Sorry, we're all out. I've got one for a long-haired, green-eyed Persian with a foul temper on top of a traffic signal if you like?
- Jessie Weingartner: Nah...
- [After destroying his table]
- Jessie Weingartner: You think the Burns'll come out of his office again today?
- Charlotte Hannon: I hope no. Last time it was just to yell at me for playing on that squirty clown thing downstairs.
- [After a while]
- Jessie Weingartner: You ever snuck into Burn's office?
- Charlotte Hannon: Almost. I got up on top of the light fitting outside it... ...but I couldn't make the jump to his office.
- Jessie Weingartner: Hmm... What if we brought in a hang glider?
- Charlotte Hannon: I'd so be up for that.
What Are You Doing In My Office?[]
- [If the player enters Burns' office while Burns is there]
- Cornelius Burns: What are you doing? Get out of my office! And stay out!
- [Burns takes Chase out of his office]
- Chase McCain: I should probably wait until tomorrow before asking for a raise...
Helping the Firefighters[]
- [When approaching the firefighter playing a minigame]
- Firefighter 5: It's no good - I can't beat it. The heads keep spinning and I can't aim my extinguisher straight!
- Firefighter 6: I had the exact same problem. Which is kinda worrying seeing as we're meant to be Fire Fighters.
- Firefighter 5: Y'know, Chief Burns is such a party pooper!
- Firefighter 6: Yeah! Just because we got him the wrong kind of cake...
- Firefighter 5: And blew out the candle before him...
- Firefighter 6: And opened some of his presents...
- Firefighter 5: And congratulated him on his fiftieth birthday when he's only forty...
- Firefighter 6: And got him a Mother's day card instead of a birthday one...
- Firefighter 5: And got his name wrong on it.
- Firefighter 6: He is so touchy.
- [If the player takes too long to win the minigame]
- Firefighter 5: You gotta aim for their mouths!
- Firefighter 6: But only when they're facing you!
Burns Leaves His Office[]
- [When winning the minigame]
- Firefighter 5: Hey! You did it!
- Firefighter 6: Aw! Well done, man!
- Firefighter 5: That is outstanding!
- Cornelius Burns: What's going on out there?! You people better not be enjoying yourself on my birthday! [He uses a control panel to leave his office] I better not see anyone smiling down there!
Finding the Boat[]
- [Upon finding the green valve in the final area]
- Chase McCain: Time to find this boat and sail it away.
Stealing the Boat[]
- [Upon arriving to the side with two Vinnie Goons and the boat]
- Salvatore Calzone: Hey! Chase! Over here! Pssst! Over here Chase!
- Chase McCain: How did you guys get in here?!
- Carlo Jerome: We swam.
- Salvatore Calzone: He swam. I used the back door because I'm not a simpleton.
- Chase McCain: Aw man! I just went through basic training to get in here!
- Salvatore Calzone: And it's a good thing ya did, because we're stuck on this side of the fence.
- Carlo Jerome: Yeah, an' we can't open that big door to get the boat outta here.
- Chase McCain: Leave it to me.
- Salvatore Calzone: Like we have a choice!
- Carlo Jerome: Aw... I like him.
- [When arriving next to Salvatore and Carlo]
- Salvatore Calzone: The boss said you should get on the water cannon!
Dizzy Chase[]
- [The fireboat leaves the fire department]
- Carlo Jerome: Whatchoo think that little joystick does?
- Salvatore Calzone: [off-screen] Dunno. Try movin' it.
- [Carlo moves the lever, causing the water cannon to move]
- Chase McCain: Whoa!
- Carlo Jerome: [on screen] It don't do nothin'. [off-screen] See?
- [Carlo moves the lever quickly, making the water cannon move faster]
- Chase McCain: Whoa! Wey! Woooargh! Waaah!
- Salvatore Calzone: Ah, jus' leave it alone then.
- [Carlo stops the lever, causing the water cannon to stop moving]
- Chase McCain: [Dizzy] Oooargh...
- [The level ends]
Story[]
After delivering the dinosaur skeleton and a fireboat (obtaining the Firefighter disguise in the meantime), Vinnie considers Chase his new right hand man and goes to meet his "private buyer".
Walkthrough[]
Level Prelude[]
You access this level when you go to the Fire Department in Festival Square to steal a fireboat. (Look here for more information.)
Level Walkthrough[]
You start in the first zone of the fire department parking lot. Ramon Lopez-Delgado will tell you that you will have to look like a firefighter and, to do this, there will be a new uniform inside the second garage. To open that garage, pull the yellow lever near the starting point to open the first garage. Inside the first garage, destroy a large box to build a space box. Use the Astronaut suit to open it and reveal some bricks inside the third garage. Use them to build a color swapper with the color red. Use it to change the color of your Robber suit's Color Gun from purple to red. Use the red color from your Color Gun to paint the missing parts of the second garage door and activate a yellow lever nearby. Pull it to open the second garage door. Inside the second garage, open a closet to unlock Chase McCain (Fireman). Ramon will call you and tell you that there is a fire next to him. Use the Fireman suit to put it out and Ramon will give you an axe. Grab it and you can use it to open boarded up doors with the Fireman suit. You will see that Brad Hoggle will allow you to open a boarded up door. Approach it and use the Fireman suit's axe to open it and find a green valve. Grab the green valve and you'll see that two more Brads will have trouble with a fire hydrant. Place the green valve on the fire hydrant and turn it to close the fire hydrant, also stopping the madness of the two Brads. After this, Ramon will open the gates to the next zone.
In the next zone, go to the designated spot to play a minigame. In said minigame, you have to signal four firefighters to go to one side to save one of the four firefighters in danger. Ramon will tell you where the firefighters should go, to the left or to the right. Have the firefighters go to the designated location and when they are there, have them stop and wait for the firefighter in distress to jump onto the trampoline. Repeat this with the four firefighters and when they are all safe, you will have to put out the fire in the building. The fires are too far away for your extinguisher, so Ramon will use a control panel to reveal two water cannons. Get on one of them. Using the water cannons, aim at one of the fires and hold down the attack button to shoot water at them. There are a total of nine fires. With one water cannon, you can only put out eight, so you'll have to get on the other cannon to put out the remaining fire. After putting out all nine fires, you will have to rescue a cat named Pompom-Moggins. To do this, Ramon will pull a yellow lever to open a red door and reveal a box. Grab the box and place it on a green pad to the right to build a ladder. Climb it to reach the first floor of the building, go left, jump from a window to reach a scaffolding platform, and use a trampoline to reach the second floor. There, use the Fireman suit to open a boarded up door, walk on a blue walkway to get to the other side, and open another boarded up door with the Fireman suit. When you reach the other side, jump to the roof on the right, move across some drain pipes to reach the third floor, and use the Fireman suit again to open one more boarded up door. In the room behind that newly opened door, you'll find a dynamite vending machine. Use the Miner suit on it to receive a dynamite. Grab it and place it in a barrel next to a silver wall. Move away from the dynamite and it will explode, allowing you to cling to a roof to reach the other side of the third floor. When you reach the other side, use the Fireman suit to open another boarded up door and use the Undercover suit to go down a ladder that will take you to the upper roof of the building. There, destroy a brown box to reveal a designated point. Stand on it and press the action button to drive an RC car with dynamite. With the RC car with dynamite, drive it under a gap and take it to the silver posts to destroy them and make a water tank destroy a gate. Go towards Pompom-Moggins, stand at the designated spot and use the Fireman suit on it to make Pompom smell like fish. Chase will grab Pompom and put him in his helmet. After rescuing him, Ramon will thank you and open the door to the fire department. Go through the newly opened door to reach the next area.
In the next area, you will hear a message from Vinnie. After listening to it, go left and go up the stairs to the second floor. There, destroy three black chairs on the right side to reveal a question mark scanner symbol. Use the Undercover suit on it to find a key in the drawers on the left side. Grab it and use it to open the door next to you. In the office behind that door, destroy a pile of gifts to build a blue trampoline. Use it to reach the top of a ledge and then jump across the lamps to one that is far from Burns' office. Use the Farmer suit to cross the gap and reach the roof of Burns' office. There, use the Robber suit to open a trap door to Burns' office. However, since Burns is inside his office, if you enter when he is in his office, he will take you outside. To get him out of his office, go back to the bottom floor and approach a firefighter playing a minigame. He'll tell you that he and his partner can't complete their minigame, so you'll have to help them. Use the Fireman suit to play the minigame. In 1 minute and 30 seconds, you will have to shoot the fire extinguisher in the faces of five clowns (in continuous fire) to inflate the balloons above their heads. The balloons inflate slowly and only when the faces are turned towards you. After winning the minigame, Burns will leave his office and go play the minigame. Repeat the entire path you took to enter Burns' office and when you're inside, Burns won't notice you or take you out. Use a control panel to open the office door and then use the Robber suit to open a safe and find a key. Grab the key, place it in the lock on the right side of the first floor and turn it to open the door to the basement of the fire department. Stand at the designated point and press the action button to climb down a pole and reach the final area.
In the final area, go right and destroy a coat rack to reveal a question mark scanner symbol. Use the Undercover suit on it to find a green valve inside a refrigerator. Grab it, connect it to the lift and twist it to raise the lift. Swing on the blue post on the right to cross the bars. On the other side, destroy a large box to build a space box. Use the Astronaut suit on it to reveal a dynamite vending machine. Use the Miner suit on it to receive a dynamite. Grab it, go left and use the Robber suit to open a door that will take you back to the main side. Back on the main side, place the dynamite in a barrel next to a silver door and walk away until it explodes. When it explodes, it will destroy the silver door, allowing you to use a color swapper to change the color of your Robber suit's Color Gun from purple to red. Go back to the other side and use the red color of your Color Gun to change the color of a panel from green to red. This will disable the fans above, also revealing a Super Chicken point on the platform to the left. Go back to the elevator, raise it again, and swing on the blue pole again to return to the platform with the Super Chicken point. While you have to use the Super Chicken point, it is not necessary, as you can cross the two gaps with the chicken in the Farmer suit without using the Super Chicken point. Crossing to the other side, you'll meet Salvatore Calzone and Carlo Jerome, who tell you that they can't open the big door to get out of the fire department, so they're trapped. Destroy the blue and white boats to build a blue and white catapult. Use it to get to the other side of the water. There, use the red color of your Robber suit's Color Gun to change the color of another panel from green to red. This will deactivate the power that immobilizes a door. Go back to the other side and use the Robber suit's crowbar to open it and join your companions. Salvatore will tell you that you can use the boat's water cannon to open the big door. Hop on the water cannon and use it to fill the small tank to the left of the big door. This will open the big door, ending the level.

Trivia[]
- When closing the fire hydrant in the first area, the second Brad Hoggle says "Oof!". This may be a reference to the old death sound that Roblox characters played when dying, which was replaced in 2022 due to it coming from a game called Messiah.
