It’s almost time for the Chicago Fire Season 14 fall finale, and we know that means a heavy episode.
At the end of Chicago Fire Season 14 Episode 6, Kidd decided to take some time off to take Isaiah out of the state to be with his mom. It was a huge move to show just how much both Isaiah and his mom have become part of her family, and it tells us that Kidd won’t be in the new episode.
While this is sure to annoy some people, there are plenty of storylines to look forward to as we learn more about one of our paramedics.
Lizzie Novak’s Sister?
The promo gives us a look at Novak’s story, and it’s going to involve her sister.
There’s very little we know about Lizzie Novak, but Chicago Fire Season 13 hinted at something big happening to the entire family.
She doesn’t often talk about her siblings, but we may get to meet one of them in the new episode, as Novak gets a call about a patient who happens to be her sister.
It probably isn’t that surprising that Novak is on the emergency list for one of her siblings.
After all, she is a paramedic, so if something happens, Novak can likely remain calm enough to get all the information, and it does look like she will remain calm in the episode.
What’s odd is that we don’t have any images to look at for this part of the episode, which suggests it will be a huge part of the story to come.
Van Meter Is Back
While Novak has her family drama, we’ll get to see Van Meter return for a storyline with Severide.
The synopsis for Chicago Fire Season 14 Episode 7 says it’s a suspicious fire at a high school, and that’s likely what’s happening at the end of the promo.
Severide investigates a suspicious high school fire; Novak gets an unexpected call; Violet brings a 51 firefighter onboard the ambulance for a shift.
Severide tries to stop a man as he breaks some glass, and there’s a big explosion.
What started this fire that we see Squad and Engine dealing with?
If Van Meter is coming in, it suggests arson, but the question is whether the perpetrator is a teacher or a student.
Could this be a student who just doesn’t understand the seriousness of what they did, or is it possible that someone wanted to hurt this teacher in particular?
That will be something Severide and Van Meter need to look into, and the more I see Severide work on an OFI case, the more I want to see him join OFI permanently.
However, Chicago Fire Season 14 seems to be gearing up for Severide to move up the ranks.
Back on Chicago Fire Season 12, he didn’t really want to move up the ranks, being happy where he was and not really liking the paperwork.
However, as Pascal has put Firehouse 51 in his hands and has asked Severide to shadow him, Severide has gone with the flow, almost as if he’s forgotten about the paperwork side of things.
Yet we know, at his heart, he’s a great arson investigator, and he can’t help but take on cases — so which direction will his career take?
Vasquez Works with Ambo 61
Also, at the end of the previous episode, Vasquez decided he actually wanted to work with the paramedics, but we know it was for an ulterior reason.
However, he will also want to help people, and that is something that he’s good at, so it’s not too surprising to see him working directly with Violet in the promo for the new episode.
They have a patient who is unconscious and behind a door, and they’ll need to pull the door off the hinges to get to her, it seems.
Violet needs the firefighter program to work, as the medics are seriously burnt out, so Vasquez better not mess this up for her.
While he’s proven to be hot-headed, he’s also shown he cares, so it’s hard to tell what he’ll do to help or hinder this plan for the paramedics.
This episode could leave viewers with a huge cliffhanger for Vasquez, as it is the Chicago Fire Season 14 fall finale, and the new kid has taken up much of the storytelling since the start of the season.
Chicago Fire airs on Wednesdays at 9/8c on NBC.
