The plot continues to focus on the rigorous training program at the Tokyo Fire Academy. Daigo, Shun, and Yuki are among the trainees applying to join the elite Special Rescue Team. At the beginning of the episode, Daigo participates in additional exercises that go far beyond the scheduled training sessions. Shun and Yuki observe this and wonder if Daigo has a secret reason for his extra efforts.
Shun is curious about Daigo's motives and decides to join him during the additional training. He tries to strike up a conversation with Daigo, but he remains reserved. Later, Yuki reveals that Daigo has been tallying the group's collective mistakes and performing corresponding exercises as a form of self-discipline. This revelation leads Shun to reflect on his own commitment and determination.
The episode then transitions to a demanding training exercise called the "Burn Room Training," which simulates real firefighting scenarios. The trainees are divided into teams, with one person handling the hose and two others responsible for search and rescue. Daigo and Shun are selected for the search and rescue team, while Yuki is assigned to handle the hose.
At the start of the exercise, the trainees enter a burning building. Visibility is severely limited due to smoke and steam. Daigo and Shun are connected by a rope, which allows them to communicate nonverbally as they search for survivors. Daigo's calm and methodical approach contrasts with Shun's eagerness and recklessness.
Eventually, Shun finds a dummy representing a survivor from Code 252 and signals Daigo. Just as the two believe they have completed their task, they discover that the entrance door is blocked by the fire's backdraft. Forced to find another exit, they rely on Yuki's situational awareness and decide to head to the second floor.
