In the last episode, Firehouse 51 tensions boiled over. Chief Pascal was all set to mark his wedding anniversary when disaster hit. His wife, Monica, was caught in a horrific multi-car accident that put her out of action for good. The tragic loss left Pascal heartbroken and looking for someone to point a finger at.

At the same time, Damon was at odds with himself after his teammate Jenner left him behind during a rescue operation in a fire building. As Damon bravely rescued a civilian, Jenner falsified the event and then intimidated Damon into silence. This made it uncomfortable for Damon to work, and he consulted Severide.

Severide told Damon to keep his head down, but things went too far when Jenner accosted him at Molly's bar. A fight was narrowly averted, but the tension hung in the air. Severide and Kidd debated reporting the incident to Chief Boden but did not, fearing it would exacerbate the hazing Damon endured.

While the firehouse grieved Monica's loss, Severide and Kidd were advised that their adoption was finalized. Still, in respect for Pascal's loss, they maintained the news within themselves.
