A firefighter's life hangs in the balance, plus a friend still asking for help. And questions are being called about how House 51 acted on the crack house fire in last week's episode. A lot comes into tonight's episode.
Casey and Dawson act like everything is normal and try to keep the baby news a secret until Dawson asks to transfer to Arson and spells the news to Bowden. The reaction from Bowden was priceless. I couldn't stop laughing. "Gabriela Dawson, get your ass over here and hug me." As I said, it's priceless.
Now, with Dawson at Arson, she spots a report about the crack house fire she was a part of and looks into it to see if it was arson. There seems to be enough support to be an arson. That also puts the big question into another situation.
The Deputy Chief calls for Bowden to answer some questions about how they handled it. Somehow, they could have gotten there sooner, but of course, they had that neighborhood blockage of cars. Soon, Patterson talks with his crew, including Severid,e who tells him he doesn't want surprises. Something is fishy with Patterson.
Casey was questioned and asked about his actions in the last couple of weeks. Plus, Severide gets asked too and responds with them asking the neighbor, but no one knows who or where that guy is.
Severide soon does his investigation while he is off and visits the site. He was looking for the elderly guy that lived next door. With no one at home, he goes to the next house, and a guy opens it but tells Severide that he has no idea. The elderly guy soon comes out and tells Severide the same thing. Someone has kept the neighborhood silent.
Meanwhile, Casey gets stopped by Nesbitt and asks for the whereabouts of Katya's files. Casey doesn't know but goes to Voight to help prevent this guy. Voight can't and makes Casey out to go full Voightal.
But when talking to Dawson about the arson fire report on the crack house, he remembers something that drove him back to the bar. There, he searches and finds something beyond the wall. There are the files, and Casey tries to make a run from them but is followed by Nesbitt, but with the save by Voight and the Feds, Nesbitt is finally in custody.
Also, in this episode, Britt and Chili rescue a heart attack victim who looks like he will be dead. Not to mention that the patient's fiance was there and got in the way of getting shocked and needed to be rescued, too. Britt can't seem to get that baby out of her mind. Visiting him many times, it looks like maybe she might be thinking of adopting.
And it's a neighborhood war between Molly's and a family next door. Hermann tries to be nice, but it backfires, and that sends him to make it karaoke night, playing "Don't Forget About Me."
This episode was great. The story of an investigation and Bowden losing his job is a perfect storyline starter. The character Patterson is a moron and fishy with what he's been doing. That scene with Casey on the edge hanging on the bank van was on the edge-of-your-seat stuff.
Overall, I give this episode an 8/10.
Here's a promo for next week's episode.
