What’s next for Bode and Gabriela after that big moment in last week’s episode of CBS’s Fire Country? Fans will find out when the Max Thieriot-led drama returns with a new episode in its regular timeslot on March.
In “You Know Your Dragon Best,” the crews work to contain a dangerous forest fire and save a group of environmentalists protesting a housing development. Meanwhile, Bode (Thieriot) and Gabriela (Stephanie Arcila) are trying to figure out what’s next after they shared that passionate kiss at the end of “Two Pink Lines.” After they locked lips, she told the inmate firefighter she wanted them to focus on becoming better people before they jumped into a relationship. But a second kiss suggested that keeping their feelings in check will be a challenge.
A teaser for the upcoming (via TVLine) makes it clear that Gabriela wants to talk about what went down. But Bode isn’t feeling too communicative.
“Are you really just going to shut me out after what happened during the last fire we worked together? After we kissed?” she asks as they work cleaning up after a fire.
It turns out, Bode has other things on his mind. He’s upset that Jake (Jordan Calloway) is also a kidney match for his mom, Sharon (Diane Farr).
“This was the one thing I could do for my mom,” he says, adding that Jake’s obviously the better choice to be his mom’s kidney donor.
“I disagree,” Gabriela replies.
Another issue? If Bode is cleared for surgery, he’ll have to go back to prison to recover. That means he may not be able to return to the inmate firefighting program, Eve (Jules Latimer) explains to Jake (via YouTube).
