Feeling his authority was undercut and his reputation damaged, Anderson uses his power to make things miserable for Wallace Boden and all of House 51 feels the repercussions. Meanwhile, Kelly Severide (Taylor Kinney) contemplates a major life-changing decision, Christopher Herrmann (David Eigenberg) does a good deed and Sylvie Brett (Kara Killmer) looks to make some personal changes to herself."
