My wife almost got k*lled

because of some cop on the take.

- We're on top of it.
- Well, what's the hold-up?

Hey, it's a police matter,
let the police handle it.

- You're not!
- Stay in your lane.

You just lost yourself
a valuable friend.

How come you're going along
with me in all of this?

You don't even like me.

Chief Boden sees something in you.

This has been a chance
for me to see it for myself.

It's you I'm worried about.

You haven't slowed down
even for a breath.

Casey and I broke up.

So can you help me?

- Yeah.
- Great.

Listen, and I get that,

but I've been a lieutenant for a while,

and it seems a little off that
I don't have my own quarters.

What are you talking about?

I waited five years.

Like Minnesota Fats said,
"Them's the breaks."

Uh-huh.

It's a seniority issue.

You're third in line.

You really don't
understand marriage, do you?

- Always support your wife.

You were agreeing with me!

Listen, I cannot keep using this room

as my temporary workspace.

It's not right.

How's your partner doing?

Between Casey
and the paramedicine incident,

not good.

That was one hell of a one-two punch.

No, no. What's up?

Well, you've been with us

I just want to check in with you,

Very much so.

It's a great house.

Great.

She's an outstanding lieutenant.

As for our personalities, sure,
we're a little different,

Right.

- Hey, don't mind me.
- Okay.

Did you agree with the
incident report format

that Boden was talking about
this morning?

I hadn't thought about it.

Well, it seems like if we
have been filing the reports

in a certain way for literally forever,

we don't need a new system

The laundry room is more

The laundry room?

It's right next to the bunk room,
so I'd be close to my men.

And it can easily be
cleaned up and refitted

to accommodate a desk.

What the hell are you doing here?

This is a fire scene, Pryma.

The better question is,

what the hell are you doing here?

I was looking over
suspicious cases in the area,

and this house stuck out...
bedroom on fire.

With a floor safe nearby.

Exactly.

I was doing the same thing.

Our detective working the case

said the safe was never opened.

Fire investigation said the same thing.

Ruled it arson.

Yeah, but CPD couldn't
figure out a motive.

Homeowner?

Spends half the time in Florida,

wasn't in Chicago when this happened.

Interviewed him remotely,

but we didn't get a bad hit off of him.

I looked through both addresses
to see if there's any connection,

but I'm pulling zeros right now.

This is a similar model to
the cracked safe this morning,

which drew both our attention,

only this wasn't opened.

That's correct.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

The fire started here...

Here...

And here.

Meaning someone lit the drapes
or curtains on fire.

Okay.

Okay, what if our safecracker,

he comes in, he moves over to the safe,

he tries to torch his way in,

but he doesn't know what he's doing yet.

He gets spooked or pissed
or whatever and he gives up.

Then he decides to...

Light the room on fire
out of frustration.

Or to cover his tracks.

So you're saying this safe
was his first attempt?

Well, most arsonists start small.

They work their way up.

Partly a mental compulsion.

It's also practice.

Maybe safecrackers do the same thing.

So he fails here,

waits a few weeks,
and then cracks the safe on West Hersh.

Exactly.

All right, it seems like if we find

a connection between the two houses,

- we land on a suspect.
- We?

Experience tells me
you're gonna see this through

whether I want you to or not.

So you share anything
you find in your files.

I'll do the same thing.

Done.

That's why I called
equipment and supplies.

I don't have the hoses
you promised me in August.

I did.

I still do, apparently.

These are from a fire scene
a couple of weeks ago.

These studs here and here,
they're different, right?

Yeah, you can see them here.

This house had some renovations done.

Behind this sheetrock,
old studs that are pre- ,

actual x s.

And over here,
that's newer construction.

Those studs are...

No.

Go on.

Those studs are modern / x / s.

And light and color.
