When we last saw the gang from House 51, they had thrown a wedding for their Captain, and as soon as the party was underway, a call about a fire in a warehouse building. That's where everyone went in except for the Captain.
There seems to be a problem; quietness sets in, and suddenly, the top building explodes. Boden yells for Casey and Severide to respond, but nothing and everything goes dark until Tuesday night when we find out who will live and who will die.
The premiere of Season Three of the hit NBC series "Chicago Fire" picked up where we left off. We find Severide waking up from the mess and ensuring that everyone on his and Casey's teams is all right.
We see that Mills is injured with a leg injury, and they call the Captain to be in Shay and Dawson. But it was that moment when Casey and Severide heard that Dawson and Shay were in the building at the time of the explosion.
They searched for them and came to an emotional Dawson performing CPR on an unresponsive Shay Severide. Casey tried to help Dawson, but he didn't want to stop. They try to do as much as they can, but no response. Leslie Shay has died.
As we cut to Severide and Dawson looking at each other while Shay is carried away, we come to one of many flashbacks of Shay's first day at House 51, meeting Dawson and the gang.
The second was when she met with Severide, and we found out how they became roommates. The third was as both Shay and Dawson went into the building to help a victim, we came to what had happened to Shay and how she died of a head injury. Some of the rest were just of both Dawson and Severide's good times that they have had.

Months after the incident, we come to a depressing firehouse 51; everyone returns to doing their best. Mills is back, and Dawson came in late after her appointment.
Dawson is having a difficult time when trying to find a replacement. Also, we see that she isn't quite herself and then meets Shay's replacement, Sylvia Brett, who looks like Shay. If that wouldn't be enough on her plate as it is.
Severide hasn't been back since Shay's death, and House 66 is pissing off Casey and the team for their remarks about Dawson joining their team.
Casey looks for Severide and finds him at his logo cabin. Casey explains that the only thing that matters is the lives they save and that he should represent death.
Severide thinks and later comes back to House 51.
Dawson goes to her appointment with the firehouse chaplain, who she's been seeing for the last five weeks and has not spoken yet. That is until she finally talks and tells him that she blames herself for the death of Shay.
Near the end, we see Casey helping Severide pack up Shay's things for her family. Severide comes to a recording of a promise they made on the first days as roommates that they "always" kept a guarantee that they did not bring work home and stay as friends.
This series shows that no character is safe; this is what it is in the real world. This episode proves that not even our favorite character can last forever. This episode packed so many emotions it's hard to wrap my head around. I think this could be one of the saddest episodes of the series so far.
"Always" seems a game-changer for the series for both Severide and Dawson. We'll see how this season plans out.
You can catch "Chicago Fire" on Tuesday nights at 10/9c on NBC.
