Overview

  • An explosion at a tier 4 biomedical lab has trapped Station 118 firefighters, exposing them to a rapidly progressing strain of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF).
  • Scientist Moira, recently fired from the lab, is implicated in the crisis after stealing the only available antidote and accelerating the virus’s lethality.
  • The U.S. Army canceled planned extractions due to the heightened biohazard threat, leaving the firefighters in extreme danger.
  • Hen suffers a collapsed lung, while Chimney shows signs of viral exposure, worsening the already dire situation inside the lab.
  • Rescue efforts continue as Athena and Buck search for a way to retrieve the antidote and save their colleagues despite mounting obstacles.
