Nanette is a server who was killed when the floor collapsed at the Firefighter's Ball.

History[]

Nanette was one of the servers working at the Firefighter's Ball. When she slipped on the floor, Jack helped her up and asked if she was okay. She told him she was fine and said she had to get back to work because she needed the money. Jack understood that, seeing she was pregnant, but she said she was only housing the baby and once he was born, he would be placed for adoption. He said it was great that she was doing what was best for both of them and she was surprised as not many people shared that sentiment.

Nanette was in the kitchen when Chef Wolf discovered something was wrong with the oven, as it burned the bread he was baking. Nanette said she needed to rest because her back was hurting, which he attributed to her working too much. Jack, who'd been asked to look at the oven, discovered some smoke and said everyone needed to leave the kitchen.

When Jack found Nanette again, she was still in pain and told him she was in labor, but didn't want to admit it because going to the hospital would mean it was too real. After he was born, she'd never stop being his mother, even if someone else raised him, and she hadn't even chosen his parents yet. She worried she'd seen him and not be able to do the right thing. Jack told her that whatever her heart told her to do is the right thing and she said she wanted him to be adopted. He left her to go get his keys so he could drive her to the hospital.

Jack returned just as Andy came in and told everyone to get off the dance floor. Before they could do that, the floor collapsed and Nanette fell into a large hole in the floor. Once the firefighters got her out, they started CPR and moved her to the kitchen to get her away from the chaos of the ballroom. Jack had Carina join them there. After five minutes of CPR were unsuccessful, Carina decided to do a c-section in the kitchen in the hopes of being able to save Nanette and the baby. She used a kitchen knife that Ben sanitized to operate. Once the baby was delivered, they continued compressions on Nanette and got both her and the baby into an aid car. ("Glamorous Life") Despite Carina's best efforts, Nannette died of her injuries. ("This Woman's Work")
