In a recent interview with Collider, Fire Country actor Max Thieriot discussed the possibility of a Bode and Gabriela reunion in the show. While the two characters are not together at the moment, Thieriot insisted that the door to their relationship “should never be closed,” suggesting that fans can still hold out hope for a happy ending.
Undeniable Connection
According to Thieriot, the connection between Bode and Gabriela is “undeniable” and was established in the very first episode of the show. He believes that as long as that connection exists, the possibility of a reunion remains a powerful storytelling tool, creating intrigue for audiences. “Gabriela will always have a place in Bode’s heart, and vice versa,” he said, so the question of their future should always be there.
Plot Tension
Thieriot explains that the suspense of “will they get back together” keeps the story moving. Keeping these two characters apart not only creates tension, but also makes the audience want to see them reunite. This creates more opportunities to explore the story in the future, an element that Thieriot considers “really interesting” for the show.
Complicated Relationship Background
Bode and Gabriela’s relationship has gone through many ups and downs in previous seasons:
Bode’s time in prison: After returning to prison, Bode pushed Gabriela away, forcing her to move on.
Near-Wedding: In the Season 2 finale, Gabriela almost married Diego before calling off the wedding.
Different paths: At the start of Season 3, Bode has found his place as a free man and firefighter, while Gabriela is still finding her way.
New Relationships: Both of them got to know new people in Season 3, but their bond didn’t disappear.
Uncertain Future
With Fire Country’s fourth season approaching, Max Thieriot’s comments suggest that the writers may continue to use Bode and Gabriela’s relationship as a central focus of the story. While their romance has died down, the door is still open for a surprise ending, which Thieriot says would make for a “fantastic” episode.
