The Season 12 finale of Chicago Fire will be a scorcher.
Throughout Season 12, viewers have been taken on an emotional journey as Firehouse 51 acclimates to its new company. After losing Blake Gallo (Alberto Rosende) and Sylvie Brett (Kara Killmer), it's been a change of pace for everyone. Amid these staff changes, we have some unresolved tension. Leadership shifts in the CFD have threatened 51's livelihood and complicated Wallace Boden's (Eamonn Walker) position. Meanwhile, suspicious new candidates have made their way to 51 with unclear motives. Plus, Violet Mikami (Hanako Greensmith) and Sam Carver (Jake Lockett) still haven't taken their "casual" relationship to the next level.
