The involvement of Mickey’s father, Wes, simultaneously resolved the big mystery of Bode’s more unsavory connections per his parole officer’s words and shaped the basis of Mickey and Wes’s relationship, which will undoubtedly be at the heart of the upcoming Sheriff Country. However, Fire Country season 3, episode 16 also massively focused on Cal Fire and Three Rock’s newest enemy Oxalta, with Eve, Sharon and Manny hoping to convince them to pay for the restoration of Three Rock’s water supply. This storyline and its unexpected resolution nonetheless put an unlikely pressure on one of Bode’s more stable relationships.

Bode Fundamentally Disagrees With Manny Having To Sign An NDA To Get His Freedom
Fire Country season 3, episode 16 ended the best possible way with Violet’s help in the form of the report confirming Oxalta was poisoning Three Rock’s water supply, as having proof gave Sharon a better starting point from which to ask for Oxalta to repair the contamination. Manny’s surprise appearance outside Three Rock effectively revealed that not only had Sharon succeeded in asking Oxalta to pay for the restoration of Three Rock, but she had also bought Manny’s freedom in exchange for Manny not revealing to anybody what had happened to him and what Oxalta had done.
This revelation however shocked Bode to his core. Fire Country season 3, episode 16’s ending showed Bode vehemently opposing Sharon’s plan after it had already been concluded, as it might have gotten Manny his freedom back, but that came at the expense of the truth of Manny’s experience and the terrible actions Oxalta had committed. Bode and Sharon’s exchange in Fire Country season 3, episode 16 showed him on the offense and Sharon bewildered, as she celebrated how she had gotten Manny out, not being able to see that Bode viewed the acceptance of Oxalta’s terms as them winning.
