13 Nov
Summary
- Firehouse 51 faces budget cuts, with Engine Company 51 set to be decommissioned
- Severide investigates a targeted school fire, uncovering a sinister plot against the principal

As the heroic firefighters of Firehouse 51 continue their vital work, they now face the looming threat of budget cuts. According to the chief of staff for the Chicago mayor, funds are being reallocated to avert a teacher's strike, and the rig on the chopping block is Engine Company 51, led by Randall "Mouch" McHolland.
Amidst this financial uncertainty, the firefighters are also grappling with a serious investigation. A targeted fire at a local high school has Severide and investigator Tom Van Meter on the case, as they work to uncover the culprit. Their probe leads them to a private Facebook group accusing the school principal, Mr. Cole, of mistreating students, raising the possibility of a sinister plot against him.
