Bode’s Out of Jail, However Is He Out of The Hearth Too?

When Hearth Nation ended its second season, followers had lastly gotten what that they had needed all alongside — Bode’s freedom.

Bode is out of jail, however does that imply he’s out of the hearth, too? For 2 seasons, we’ve seen Bode as a member of the North California Hearth Division. However that’s as a result of he was on the Three Rock Jail Conservation Camp.

Since Bode’s affiliation with the hearth division was contingent on his standing as a prisoner of the California Justice Division, will he nonetheless be a firefighter as a civilian?

Bode was Born to Go Into the Hearth

It’s an odd world to image — Bode Leone out of jail and dealing as a development employee as an alternative of combating fires alongside his household and buddies.

However that’s precisely the place we left him on the finish of a too-short busy second season. With a legacy like Bode’s, there’s zero shock that his narcissistic hero complicated leads him into life-threatening conditions.

Even when he’s not there in an official capability.

Once we first met Bode in his freshman season, he was new to the hearth camp however to not the realm. We rapidly discovered Bode was an Edgewater native who had the misfortune of getting positioned with the hearth division run by his estranged household and buddies.

It didn’t take lengthy for us to see that Bode is a full-blown pure at firefighting.

It actually should be genetic — Chief Vince (dad), former Division Chief Sharon (mother), and present Division Chief Luke (uncle), to not point out a retired firefighting grandfather.

However it’s not simply his household who’s concerned within the harmful career. Paradoxically, his two childhood finest buddies — Jake and Eve — are additionally members of the identical fireplace station he has to work with intently.

Particularly when there’s a lot historical past among the many trio — a lot of it darkish and heavy.

Bode’s Previous Stays His Future

It’s not misplaced on this viewer that Bode’s finest buddy Jake — and infrequently accent to Bode’s impulsive hero antics — dated two crucial ladies in Bode’s life pre-prison.

Each wound up useless.

The loss of life of Bode’s sister — Jake’s highschool girlfriend — resulted in Bode’s jail sentence. And his subsequent sobriety from a tablet dependancy.

An dependancy he changed with the fun of adrenaline from enjoying hero.

As soon as Bode and Jake repaired their relationship within the first season, we noticed a fantastic friendship evolve. With out Jake and Eve, Bode’s private progress might have been very completely different.

However the writers appear to have it out for the Boke bromance as a result of, in Hearth Nation Season 2, Jake will get engaged to Bode’s ex-girlfriend, who has a teenage daughter.

With an unknown absentee father.

Duh, duh, duh.

Jake used Bode’s potential fatherhood information as a strategy to manipulate him into not turning into a killer.

So, we spent the vast majority of the second season immersed within the drama of Bode’s child daddy drama, with an additional layer of rigidity from Jake, the uncle turned stepdad.

Bode made main adjustments to his persona to develop right into a extra mature man able to tackle his obligations.

Solely to be taught his potential daughter isn’t his. Okay. Bummer.

However possibly not, as a result of right here comes extra Jade bro-daddy drama. Cara dies and makes use of her final moments to request that Bode and his household increase her daughter.

So Bode is likely to be enjoying Dad anyway. However whereas he’s locked up, Bode’s mother and father get guardianship. And Daddy Jake is again to enjoying Uncle to an adolescent who desires to make her personal alternative about her future.

She desires to stay with Jake as her dad as an alternative of Bode. So now Bode is within the uncle function and Jake is fathering the orphaned Gene.

Yeah, we stayed just a little misplaced, too, with the Jerry Springer Maury love triangle drama.

It took some time for Bode and Jake to get on the identical web page about Gene’s future. Not that we blame both of them. Perhaps they may co-parent since they each appear to have a crappy run with relationships.

All of Bode’s Relationships are Difficult

Now that we’re on the subject of failed relationships, let’s focus on Bode’s dislike of taking his work residence with him.

It began with a budding romantic curiosity with a feminine firefighting inmate, Rebecca, who was liable for serving to Bode’s first-season inmate finest buddy, Freddy, get out of jail early.

Earlier than a relationship might actually get underway, Rebecca died on a harmful fireplace name. That’s three females who liked Bode useless.

After which he met firefighter Gabriela Perez.

Bode spent the remainder of the primary season ensnared within the drama of an nearly relationship with the daughter of his jail camp fireplace captain. Issues appeared promising till Bode threw jet gas on a match to wreck any likelihood of a future as a result of he thought he was returning to jail.

In one of many yr’s worst sequence premieres, FC writers proved that the torment of Bode returning to jail can be an deserted storyline.

He obtained out after the unrealistic rescue of the person he deliberate to kill. Then we had been again with Bode in jail camp firefighter mode with a large superiority complicated and a brand new boss complication.

Bode’s essential flaw, alongside together with his hero syndrome, is his lack of respect for authority, which fits as deep as his entitlement.

His finest buddy is his boss, his former boss is his mentor and father of his ex-girlfriend (and probably a re-offending convict who finally ends up as an inmate within the camp within the third season), and his ex-girlfriend, who he nonetheless desires, is marrying one other man.

We are saying “marrying” as an alternative of “married” as a result of we noticed the marriage in progress. However we by no means witnessed the couple exchanging vows, so there’s nonetheless the chance that the wedding by no means occurred.

Or will it occur? Maybe with a brand new groom this time.

One who’s now out of jail and that gaudy orange jumpsuit. And now we’re present to the conundrums left behind by the second season finale.

Though Bode is lastly free, his current maturity spurt means he’s limiting the injury of his messy societal re-entry by pretending to be blissful for his ex-girlfriend to marry her paramedic associate.

A paramedic Bode has needed to work with earlier than. Diego witnessed Cara’s deathbed plea for Bode to be the guardian of her youngster throughout a horrendous ambulance wreck.

If Bode plans to discover a approach again onto CFD, they’ll most likely work together sooner or later. In any case, they’re each in emergency companies.

Now we have to marvel what their working ‘ship might be like post-wedding.

Will Bode Discover His Method Again to Combating Fires?

However the greatest query of the upcoming season is how Bode will get again to combating fires as an alternative of working in development with the potential precise father of Cara’s child.

What’s subsequent for Bode if he can’t discover his approach onto a fireplace squad, given his less-than-stellar prison report?

There may be zero perception that he’ll cease enjoying hero, even when he’s not affiliated with a authorities group.

Will probably be attention-grabbing to see if Hearth Nation plans to journey to different elements of California extra, maybe for an additional marketing campaign fireplace or for Bode to attend official fireplace coaching.

We all know he’ll meet SoCal surfer maverick firefighter Camden (Jared Padalecki), who will arrange the third sequence, Hearth Nation: Surfside.

It’ll ultimately make up the Hearth Nation trio universe, together with Sheriff Nation, starring Morena Baccarin.

Bounce into our feedback part and tell us what you consider the utter chaos that’s the lifetime of the heroically attractive Bode Donovan Leone and his ragtag crew of NorCal firefighters.

Are you excited to see Bode stay life exterior the confines of jail?

Or do you assume we should always have seen him keep locked up for some time longer to make us extra invested within the Three Rock Hearth Camp?

It almost closed within the second season, due to Bode’s uncle Luke. His egocentric actions affected not solely the prisoners on the camp but in addition their fearless chief.

This fan is extra excited to see Manny’s future after he was escorted from his youngster’s marriage ceremony in handcuffs. I’m able to pitch in together with his lawyer’s prices as a result of Luke completely deserved that swift punch within the face.
