The ongoing love triangle involving Violet Mikami, Sam Carver, and Tori on Chicago Fire is testing the patience of many fans. As Season 13 unfolds, viewers are eagerly predicting what’s next for the trio. The slow-burning tension between Carver and Violet, who broke up in the Season 12 finale, has fans wondering if they will rekindle their romance or if outside interference, particularly from Tori, will keep them apart.
In the Season 13 premiere, Carver (Jake Lockett) rejected Violet (Hanako Greensmith), and since then, the dynamics between them have only become more complicated. Tori, a new player in Carver’s life, seems determined to keep him close by using manipulative tactics that have fans raising concerns. This has prompted many to question if Carver will wake up to her game before it’s too late—and if his complicated history with Violet will come back into play.
Will Carver and Violet Reunite?
Fans are buzzing on Reddit, speculating about the future of Carver and Violet’s relationship. One user shared their theory: “It’s clear they’re going to confess their feelings and get together either in the mid-season finale or by the end of the season. But the show isn’t going to let it happen without a lot of drama first.”
This user also pointed out that Tori, aware of Carver’s unresolved feelings for Violet, is manipulating him to maintain control. “She’s telling him no one knows him better, that Violet is messing with his head—it’s classic manipulation,” they said. Fans are predicting that something extreme, like Tori’s reckless partying or actions that endanger Carver’s career, will eventually force him to see her true intentions. Others believe that Tori may even harm Violet, pushing Carver to finally break free from her influence.
Violet, on the other hand, is keeping her feelings for Carver at bay. One fan speculated that Violet’s new love interest might be a temporary distraction, designed to highlight how much happier she was with Carver. “I think he’s another obstacle on her way to Carver,” the fan noted, suggesting that Violet’s storyline could pivot toward rekindling her relationship with Carver after she realizes the new man isn’t what he seems.
Fans Sound Off on Tori’s Role
Fans are divided on how this love triangle will ultimately play out, with many voicing their frustrations about Tori’s role in Carver’s life. During a recent interview with Us Weekly, Jake Lockett teased that Carver’s relationship with Tori isn’t as straightforward as it seems. He hinted that Carver is avoiding facing his true feelings for Violet because it’s easier to stay in a toxic relationship than deal with unresolved emotions. “Sometimes it’s easier not to move forward than it is to deal with the person you really care about,” Lockett explained.
Lockett also promised “juicy” drama for the rest of the season, adding that fans will witness Carver’s growth as a character. While the actor couldn’t reveal how things will shake out between Carver, Tori, and Violet, he expressed hope that Carver would eventually find someone willing to meet him where he is emotionally.
Fans Want Tori Gone
Viewers haven’t held back on social media, where discussions about the October 23 episode of Chicago Fire reveal that many believe Tori is toxic for Carver. On the One Chicago Instagram account, several fans commented on the unhealthy dynamic between the two, with one writing, “Tori and Carver are a toxic relationship.” Another echoed this sentiment, saying, “Carver is going to miss out on Violet, and it’s his fault!”
The general consensus seems to be that Tori is trouble, and fans are eager for Carver to move on and reunite with Violet. Whether this will happen remains to be seen, but fans are anxiously awaiting the twists and turns ahead in Season 13.
