The episode begins with an intense rescue operation led by the Tokyo Fire Department's Company M. Daigo and Shun, both firefighters, are at the forefront. Their mission is to rescue two individuals trapped in a tilting building known as Code 252. Despite the building's precarious angle and the risk of running out of air, Daigo manages to secure the survivors in a rescue basket. However, he returns to the observation platform, causing concern among his team as he struggles to breathe. A rescue line is thrown to assist him, and he successfully completes the rescue.
The episode then takes the viewer back to the time of the Tokyo Fire Academy, where young firefighters undergo rigorous training. Shun, a 19-year-old firefighter, is part of this training. He struggles with the strict discipline and high physical demands, often falling short of the instructors' expectations. Daigo, on the other hand, excels in all areas, demonstrating exceptional endurance and skill.
During their training, the two are part of a group led by Fire Captain Yamagami, who is known for his tough training methods. Despite the grueling exercises, Daigo remains the last one standing in most drills, even impressing the strict Yamagami. Shun, fascinated by Daigo's abilities, tries to befriend him, but Daigo is reserved and distant.
At the end of the episode, there is a glimpse of the next challenge the trainees must face: exercises involving fire-resistant buildings. The narrative hints at the evolving story of Daigo, Shun, and another firefighter named Yuki, setting the stage for their future endeavors.
