* {{Flashback}}: Other than Lindsay (who was still living in Montana at the time) and Adam (who shamefully admits to her that he'd slept thru the whole event), the team members are shown in flashbacks to what they were doing when and/or shortly after the towers fell. Lindsay and Adam share a moment in present-day when they tell each other how they had responded.

* TheDeadHaveNames: When a young co-worker at Piper asks Mac about his wife and keeps saying "she" and "her," he snaps, telling the girl that her name was Claire and that the victims are not just statistics - they have names. The girl goes silent and he immediately apologies, saying he knows she doesn't think that. (It being the 10th anniversary of the tragedy, he's more on edge about it than usual.)

--->'''Flack:''' Great. I got Mike Black. The white guy. [''She gives him a questioning look, he grins.''] Don't think about. But trust me, it's right.
** Det. Jo Danville and Mac's fireman buddy, Joe Vincent.Vincent. In this case, tho, they don't cross paths on-screen; Mac is the only one who talks to both of them.
