Firehouse 51 has a new battalion chief in the Wednesday, April 1, episode of Chicago Fire — and he could mean trouble for some of the characters.
Following Pascal’s (Dermot Mulroney) termination for what he did during the three-show crossover’s investigation, he told 51 that Hopkins (Rob Morgan) would be coming in to oversee their house and five others. Severide (Taylor Kinney) later described him as “a real hardass” when Cruz (Joe Mińoso) asked about him. So, how does the first shift with the new boss go? Warning: Spoilers for Chicago Fire Season 14 Episode 16 ahead!
