Fire Country Episode 16 Recap [My Kinda Leader]
The loss of Rebecca was felt by all. In the wake of her passing, Bode became enraged. He needed a scapegoat, and the captain was an ideal candidate. The team leader was absent. As a result of the negligence of another fire department, Eve was hurt while Manny was out trying to work a side hustle. In the end, Rebecca was a protagonist and a victim. To put an end to her life was cruel. Bode claims that if Manny had been present, she would not have died. They all needed Manny to step up because nobody else in the fire camp was willing to do their duties. Which meant Bode usually had to pick up the slack. But in trying to take charge, he alienated a friend.
Even though he was in charge, he failed to ensure Rebecca’s safety. Now that he has doubts about his own worthiness, he has decided against penning a eulogy. Instead of writing it himself, he suggested that Manny do it. Since no one has died under Manny’s watch, he believes that Bode should step down in favor of Manny. Bode has now suffered two workplace deaths. Maybe he wasn’t cut out for this line of work. Then he met somebody who stoked a flame in him and he found the strength to keep going. Bode was among those who responded to a major blaze in a foreign country. The fire camp’s sole purpose was to lend a hand in extinguishing the blaze before it could be expanded to the city.
While there, Bode encountered a person who put his tolerance to the test. That other guy was the town’s fire chief. When circumstances deteriorated, the last Leone he worked with bailed, so he told Bode he wasn’t interested in working with any more of them. This director claimed that the other Leone was actually named Vince. The paternal grandfather of Bode. Bode didn’t want the supervisor to see him back down because he was a 4th California Firefighter. Bode preferred to remain in the action. Though it put the lives of firefighters in danger, he insisted on staying. One firefighter was lost when the tent he was tied to was blown away.
The only option was to chase after the criminal. They unhooked the harness that was squeezing his throat and saved his life. The head administrator ordered everyone to begin making their way toward the blaze. Manny, in his capacity as fire captain, argued against it. He thought it was risky and unnecessary. The director of education, so he said, was out to prove himself. The safety of the fire camp was not something he was willing to risk. Manny gathered up his gang and fled. No one was going to run into the flames to try to direct the blaze away from the city. Bode was only allowed to stay by Manny. Bode stayed with the wackadoodle superintendent because he needed to talk things out with him. Bode hoped to stop the blaze from spreading to the nearby prison. His dad and some of his closest friends were probably locked up there. They were making their way out of the structure. Due to the jail disturbance, they had to perform first aid on the inmates who had been restrained.
Prison walls closed in on Vince, Eve, and Jake. Closer and closer came the flames from the forest fires. The captives within were beginning to feel restless. Inmates began attacking guards and firefighters were running low on equipment. Vince was responsible for calming the inmates. He made up his mind to go have a word with the decision-makers. The safe section was where he headed. The guards were summoned at his request, and he freed them. Continuing, he inquired as to whether or not a leader-to-leader conversation was possible. Vince’s one and only goal was to help people. He hoped that no one would be hurt in the blaze. The same was true for Bode. Bode, however, was adamant about remaining in the company of the deranged in order to establish his point that Leones aren’t runners. Even before the fire could spread, he hoped to save the town as well. Even before Rebecca’s death, Bode had a hero mentality, and now he was willing to risk death if it meant saving someone else. Bode didn’t comprehend how far he’d gone to save lives until much later. He recalled that he had not wanted to die, and he understood why his father had opted for retreat.
When things became too much for him, Bode left. He did as his father told him to. At the same time, his father had the gang’s shot callers put an end to their conflict. They all calmly made their way to the waiting vans, and the jail was quickly cleared. Yet, the fire appeared to be part of a series set ablaze by the same arsonist. The fire marshal suspected that someone working for Vince ignited the blaze. As they attended Rebecca’s wake, Sharon attempted to keep this knowledge from Bode’s eulogy.
Sharon made the connection between the two events. Her suspicions have been focused on Jake as the culprit behind the string of fires. It’s likely that she also recalls the time Jake set fire to his bedroom as a child because he wished to be the hero who saved the family home. As a result, she has come to the conclusion that his hero mentality was driving him to start fires specifically so that he could put them out himself. Sharon did reveal this information to Manny, but her primary motivation was to conceal it because she considers Jake to be an amazing son.
