One day, the command center receives a search and rescue request from the emergency call center. It is said that an 11-year-old boy named Ryota Sakurai has gone missing in the forest of Sasanodai in Isogo Ward, and a rescue team is dispatched to the scene.
Meanwhile, Yuki receives a silent call. When she checks the caller's number, it turns out to be the mobile number of Konatsu, who has been losing her voice for about five years. "If it's a fire, tap once, if it's an emergency, tap three times," Yuki tells Konatsu, to which she taps three times. As she listens to what he says, she learns that Konatsu is currently halfway up a hiking trail on Mt. Okamine, and that someone needs an ambulance.
Yuki and the others check the footage from the scene using video 119. They discover that the person who needs an ambulance is Sakurai. Sakurai is showing early symptoms of hypothermia, but the search team has difficulty locating Konatsu and the others. Furthermore, it starts to rain.
Meanwhile, Konatsu notices a search party nearby. She tries to reach them, but slips down the slope. Yuki calls out over the phone, "There's someone here who needs rescue!", but the search party doesn't reach her...
"Help! I'm here!" Konatsu was shown screaming for help at the top of her lungs.
On social media, people posted comments such as, "I was drawn into Misako Renbutsu's acting," "She desperately cried for help...it made me cry," "I burst into tears when the older sister cried out," "This week was great too! I watched it while bawling my eyes out," and "It's moving every time, it's amazing."
