Sydney's Law of Might-as-Well-Have-Been Intended Consequences states that a superheroine in her civvy disguise tagging along on a first responder's call will absolutely cause the situation to escalate, forcing her to choose between revealing her identity, doing nothing (which is not really an option unless the super in question is more of an anti-hero,) or ducking behind a port-a-potty to break away and do superhero stuff, then be forced to try and come up with a lame excuse like "Oh, I got separated during the excitement and couldn't find you."
It's not a pithy law, but it is the law. At least if you believe anything Sydney says.
At some point, Max has to come clean with Rowan about her identity, at which point, Rowan will realized he fully grabbed Maxima's ass and came away unscathed, which puts him rarified company. I have a scene with them that I really want to do, but... I honestly don't see how to work it out because it would require Max to remain mum about her identity for longer than she should. I'll have to give it some thought.
I looked up fire codes for this page. I didn't see a Code 11 anywhere, and the ones I did find didn't seem to get as specific as trapped "limb," but I it's possible dispatch is putting 2 and 2 together, especially if a certain address is a repeat offender. I assume there are regional codes for certain parts of the country that wouldn't come up elsewhere, like Code 53; Maple Syrup Tsunami, or Code 71; Armadillo Swarm, or Code 86; Hipster Riot due to Infinity Scarf and Flannel Shortage.
