Fire Country Season 4 Episode 1 recap: Goodbye Battalion Chief Vince Leone

Fire Country Season 4 began with a tragic loss and it was revealed that Battalion Chief Vince Leone had perished in the fire. While Bode blamed Jake for stopping him from going after his father, it was just a way to forget his own shortcomings during the fire. Bode was lucky enough to get his Grandfather Walter's call because he had a bad knee and was suspended from duty. That is when Walter asked Bode to rescue them as the fire had spread to their Retirement home.

Bode managed to reach Walter in time but his grandfather was not ready to leave his best friend. However, when Bode reached Walter's best friend, his knee gave out. That is when Walter's friend also had a dementia episode and he wandered off but Bode managed to get him out. However, Walter was still inside. Luckily, Sharon and Vince breached and rescued Walter just in time.

However, Sharon and Walter got out but the roof gave way before Vince could get out and he died.

Fire Country Season 4 Episode 1 recap: Sharon suspends Station 42

Sharon and Bode suffered a great loss and were barely able to hold themselves together at Vince's funeral. Station 42 needed a new Battalion Chief, but Sharon was infuriated to see everyone discussing the job prospects at Vince's funeral. While Bode and Jake butted heads when the latter announced his interest in the position, Vince's sworn enemy Brett Richards also seemed like a befitting option. Sharon finally decided to suspend Station 42 as their Division Chief.

The suspension continued longer than expected and Sharon was not ready to bring back Station 42. While Bode threw himself and helped the community, Sharon blamed herself for Vince's death.

Station 42 was still benched when they got an emergency call and asked for everyone's help. Bode convinced Jake to help, but Sharon learned that Station 42 has unbenched themselves, thanks to Luke's radio.

After an Olympian turned paramedic saved her stalker's life, she became a hit in the media and on the Internet. Gabriella was offered a job in the PR department. Additionally, she would also travel the country and recruit people for CalFire.

This meant goodbye between Bode and Gabriella for now. However, they confessed their love to one another, suggesting they will always remain each other's true love.

In the final moments of Fire Country Season 4 Episode 1, Luke pulled some strings and managed to get a new Battalion Chief for Station 42. However, he messed everything up in the process as he was none other than Vince's enemy, Brett.
