Welcome to Chicago Med: Chicago Fire "I Am the Apocalypse"


This week's episode takes us from one situation to another problem. This episode opens up to the possible spin-off of Chicago Med.

When a call came from a factory and a chemical spill, rescuing two others from the roof, the gang from 51 took everyone to Chicago Med to get treated. Almost every day in the ER is busy, which isn't new to the folks of Chicago Med ( I know because I was used to it at County General's ER).

When Med gets the call, they try to make things as smooth as possible. When 51 came with patients, things started to get heck and by the time April, the head nurse of Med, tries calming everyone down and giving directions, a patient walks up, gets on a chair, and yells that he is the apocalypse and that he has something worse than the elbow virus.  

Then he tried to blow himself up with a bomb, and Severide ran to stop him, knocking him down, and the patient went boom.

Welcome to Chicago Med comes to my mind after that scene.

Things went from bad to worse; patients needed treatment fast, and others feared the virus and tried to leave but were blocked by the rest of the 51 outside. Chaos ruled the event, as you could see—Casey and the rest inside attempted to maintain the fire situation. 


But it was Severide that took a toll on the rest of the story that he was hurt, and even Will, the doctor, and Halstead's brother, was just to let him die. Oh, hell no, he wasn't going to do that.

Lauren Holden's character comes in and tries to help and save Severide, who, while under, saw flashbacks of Shay, who was moving and thinking to himself that he couldn't die. 

But Severide makes it through and will make a full recovery. 

The suspect who blew himself up happens to be carrying a virus that didn't grow into what he had hoped it would have, and no one has been exposed to any virus. He came from an experiment factory that was testing viruses as weapons. 

I think one or maybe two things to take out of this episode is that one: this is an excellent episode for the spinoff to Chicago Med. Maybe one more episode dealing with the Chicago Fire and PD wouldn't hurt. It's so that we can get a bit more into these characters. But all in all, I'm in for the series. 

The other thing #2: Casey and Dawson are back together!!!! YEAH!!! And boy, did they miss each other. 

I loved and enjoyed this episode. It was the most intense episode so far that it had you holding your breath. I love these characters from Chicago Med; I thought that they were exciting, and one thing to point out is that I do wish and maybe hope that Dylan Baker would make an appearance. He was the guy who had us thinking of the Chicago Med spinoff. 

In the next episode, it looks like that Mils is leaving. What the heck, man? Being a paramedic is good enough for you? Also, the band is back together this coming April 28th, baby! That's when Fire, SVU, and PD become one in another star-stunning crossover event, and this time, it looks more significant than the last one in November. Who can't wait for this?

You can catch Chicago Fire on Tuesday nights at 10/9c on NBC
