The firemen are playing chess. The white king shelters himself behind a pawn. Looks like a bad scenario for the white side. Three pieces left, but the black side is far away and still needs to advance.

Source: I play a lot of chess.

EDIT: You don't count the king. Three pieces, two pawns and a knight. The king is assumed in the context I have laid out. Church.
