A new rule at Firehouse 51 has already proven that Chicago Fire’s Chief Pascal is a hypocrite. Dermot Mulroney’s Dom Pascal is the newest addition to the Chicago Fire season 13 cast. He replaces Wallace Boden, who was promoted to Deputy Commissioner of the Chicago Fire Department at the end of season 12 and thus will no longer appear regularly on the series. Eammon Walker is expected to still make some appearances, but Firehouse 51 needs to get used to having someone new in charge.
Pascal already had big shoes to fill in the season 13 premiere of the oldest One Chicago series. He was replacing Chief Boden, who had been with the show since its first episode. The paramedics and firefighters at Firehouse 51 were unlikely to immediately trust Pascal, so he had to prove that he was as capable a leader as his predecessor. Thus, Pascal instituted several new rules that were supposedly meant to whip the firehouse into shape. However, at least one of those rules seems pointless and hypocritical.
