Previously on 911 Crisis Center…
The fifth and sixth episodes of 911 Crisis Center Season 2 were released last Saturday, September 17th, 2022. Just like all the previous episodes of the series, the 2 episodes told two different stories.
Episode 5 titled “Dispatch Dad”, told the story from the standpoint of the rookie Steve Schieferstein. Although he may be new to the Chagrin Valley Dispatch, he is not at all new to the scene as he had the immense experience of working as an EMT and a police officer.
This doesn’t exactly mean that he’s prepared for everything, as he has never been at the receiving end of the endless dispatch calls. But he bravely takes up the task as he maneuvers around calls with various situations. From roadkill to a full arrest.
The sixth episode, which was dubbed “Supernatural Women”, was centered around Chagrin Valley Dispatch’s Melinda Pilat as she helps distressed callers. Melinda’s upbringing by her dad had made her a complete believer in the unknowns like aliens, bigfoots, etc., and such an upbringing had made her not be negligent toward any strange cases.
Keeping all this in mind, she helps out a distressed caller who has called to inform the horror of her house on fire and that her dog is trapped inside the burning house.
We also see Melinda helping another caller who has called in distress as she discovers her nephew unconscious and unresponsive.
