After Fire Country Season 3, Episode 16, I No Longer Want Bode To Be A Firefighter

A massive objective since Fire Country season 1 introduced Bode’s story has been Bode becoming a Cal Fire firefighter, but season 3, episode 16 just proved how unexpectedly good Bode would be in another job. If rehabilitating Bode, letting him be as far away from prison and Three Rock had been at the heart of Fire Country seasons 1 and 2, Fire Country season 3 entirely focused on his goal to join Cal Fire as soon as possible, which became reality once Bode passed his graduation in Fire Country season 3, episode 7’s ending.

After the wildfire in Fire Country season 3, episode 8 almost cost Bode and Audrey’s lives because of how long it took Bode to admit he couldn’t keep his promise and save a house, his experiences as a firefighter only got worse. Indeed, losing his first patient in Fire Country season 3, episode 12 showed why Bode is bad at firefighting, and meeting the coach of his teenage years aggravated him even more, especially as Coach Kimbro handed Bode drugs. Investigating Wes Fox’s attempted murder in Fire Country season 3, episode 16 instead let Bode’s detecting skills shine alongside Mickey’s.
