The episode titled "A Small Person in Need of Rescue" begins with firefighter Daigo and his colleague Shun at a location where a solar panel fire has created a dangerous situation. The firefighting team, led by Yamagami, coordinates the safe shutdown of the power source to prevent further electrical hazards. During this, they discover that a cat named Mei has been left behind in the house, triggering an urgent rescue operation.
Daigo manages to locate and shut off the distribution box, eliminating the electrical danger. He then focuses on searching for Mei, navigating through the hazardous environment to save her. Eventually, Daigo finds Mei unharmed, brings her to safety, and reassures her grateful owners, who express deep appreciation to the firefighters for rescuing their beloved pet.
As the story progresses, the personal and professional lives of the other characters are also highlighted. Chief Firefighter Toyomu and Chief Firefighter Matoi discuss the establishment of Fire Company M, a special unit preparing for a major event scheduled to take place in July two years later. Their conversation revolves around the secrecy of their unit, the challenges they must face, and their commitment to protecting their team members—particularly Nakamura Yuki, whose dedication and willingness to sacrifice are acknowledged.
The narrative then shifts to Yurie, portrayed as having a revelation about her life's path, leading her to pursue a career in firefighting instead of public relations.
The episode concludes with a preview of the next episode, which will focus on Sato Yurie's role in the Tokyo Fire Department's Public Relations Division, her unique approach to her work, and her thoughts on the nature of rescue operations.
