As skeptical as I am about Dom Pascal as Chief Boden’s replacement, I admit that he did the right thing by firing Damon in Chicago Fire season 13, episode 3. The moment is as straightforward, however, as he was initially thinking about booting out Kidd, convinced that she was the reason for the high turnover of members in Truck 81. While this seems to be the case, considering its history under her supervision, I was also convinced that his choice was partly because he didn’t want Kidd and Severide to work together on the same shift.
Officially, Pascal firing Damon is good for Firehouse 51 because of his attitude toward work, but on a personal note, not having him around lessens the potential issues for Severide and Kidd.
Luckily, before Pascal can officially write Kidd her transfer papers, he learns the truth about Damon. Getting rid of Severide’s brother is ultimately the right decision, especially after watching him drastically change in the last couple of Chicago Fire season 13 episodes Not only is he reckless and disobedient, but he also has no issues causing problems for his brother and sister-in-law. Officially, Pascal firing Damon is good for Firehouse 51 because of his attitude toward work, but on a personal note, not having him around lessens the potential issues for Severide and Kidd.
Why Is Dom Pascal Such A Jerk In Chicago Fire Season 13? Chief Boden May Be To Blame
Chief Boden’s replacement, Dom Pascal, makes a first bad impression. However, there’s a good reason why he’s such an immediate jerk to Firehouse 51.
Aside from getting rid of Damon and preventing any more problems that he could create, I also appreciate that Chicago Fire season 13, episode 3 gives us more insight into Pascal’s leadership style. He did have such a bad introduction, and it will still take a while before he and the rest of Firehouse 51 can truly trust each other. That said, seeing him change his mind makes me realize that, despite his harsh demeanor, at least we can always count on him being fair.
