!Fire Part 2
->Directed By: Nick Gomez
->Story By: Creator/HenryBromell and Creator/TomFontana
->Written By: Jack Behr
[[Recap/HomicideLifeOnTheStreetS4E1FirePartOne After a second building is burned and another dead body is found]], there's even more pressure on Bayliss, Pembleton and Kellerman to solve the case. Russert informs Giardello Barnfather will let him have another detective to replace Bolander and Felton if they solve the case. Because Kellerman is able to do so, Giardello offers him the job. Kellerman initially turns it down, but changes his mind. Munch decides he wants to take the sergeant's exam as well, but doesn't show up on exam day, with Howard alone taking the exam.
!!This episode contains examples of:
* EvenEvilHasStandards: The mysterious informant ([[Recap/HomicideLifeOnTheStreetS4E1FirePartOne who had contacted Pembleton in the previous episode as well]] is a thief, but is disgusted at the fact two kids were killed in the fires.
* FourEyesZeroSoul: Gavin Robb (Creator/AdamTrese), the chemistry teacher who turns out to be the arsonist, is somewhere between this and AffablyEvil - he's cold and uncaring when Bayliss, Pembleton and Kellerman are interrogating him, but apparently, he's kind to homeless people and he loves dogs (which Kellerman uses to get him to confess).
* GoodCopBadCop: Played with - Robb thinks Bayliss, Pembleton and Kellerman are pulling this on him, but Kellerman tells him he's the bad cop in that he's not as smart as the other two.
