His personal life took a hit as well, with the heartbreak of his wife Bailey (Chandra Wilson) suffering a miscarriage. The season ended on a chaotic note when a car crashed through the wall of Joe’s Bar, trapping Ben and Pruitt (Miguel Sandoval) inside.
Ryan’s Family Drama
Ryan (Alberto Frezza) dealt with serious daddy issues when his criminal father, Greg, returned. Instead of turning him in, Ryan helped him evade capture, complicating his moral compass. This culminated in Ryan keeping a duffel bag of cash that his father left him, choosing a dangerous path over listening to Pruitt’s wisdom.
Travis’s Legal Troubles
Travis (Jay Hayden) faced his own challenges, breaking up with Grant after their differing views on marriage. After a traumatic loss—Chief Ripley (Brett Tucker) dying in a fire—Travis got into a drunken bar fight, resulting in his arrest for assault and battery. Despite the turmoil, he had a brief moment of connection with a paramedic amid the wildfires.
Complicated Relationships
Maya (Danielle Savre) and Jack (Grey Damon) became an official couple after a harrowing subway incident, but complications arose when Dean (Okieriete Onaodowan) introduced his new girlfriend, Nikki, who had a history with Maya. The dynamics at the firehouse became even more complicated as past relationships surfaced.
Andy and Sullivan’s Turbulent Connection
The relationship between Andy (Jaina Lee Ortiz) and Captain Sullivan (Boris Kodjoe) was fraught with tension and unresolved feelings.

The heartbreaking romance between Vic (Barrett Doss) and Chief Ripley came to a tragic end when Ripley died heroically in a fire. Their poignant goodbye at the hospital left fans in tears. Meanwhile, Vic was seen dating Dr. Jackson Avery (Jesse Williams) on Grey’s Anatomy, suggesting she might be moving on, though the trauma of her loss still lingers.
