In 7×01 "A Closer Eye", Casey's life changed dramatically, which made it difficult for him to cope with it. He felt confused, then angry, unable to understand his wife's sudden decision. At the same time, the fire station welcomed a new member, and Boden had many conflicts with the newly appointed deputy fire chief Jerry Gorsch (Steven Boyer). A fire breaks out in a 15-story building and a maintenance worker is trapped in an elevator shaft. Casey rushes in recklessly to save the person, causing concern among others.
What else you need to know about this season...
Monica Raymund announced her departure from the show at the end of last season, and her character Gabby Dawson left Firehouse 51 (to go to Puerto Rico to help victims of Hurricane Maria). Not only does this mean that Firehouse 51 has lost a member, but it also means that Dawson and her husband Casey's relationship may be over (long-distance love on TV never lasts long). Although Dawson didn't make it clear where she wanted to go at the end of last season, her decision was already obvious. The producers hinted that 7×01 may have a time jump of several months, but not at the beginning or end of 7×01, but in the middle - obviously, a time jump is the best way to "send off" Dawson.
After Monica Raymund leaves, Annie Ilonzeh will take her place. Annie Ilonzeh plays Sylvie Brett's new partner on ambulance No. 61, first responder Emily Foster. Boden offered to pair Sylvie with Dawson's successor candidate Emily, but Sylvie had reservations about her from the beginning because she still didn't understand Dawson's decision and was angry about it. Emily is diligent and efficient at work, but her colleagues don't like her. Even Boden's first impression of her was not good. She had experienced setbacks at work in the past, which had left her feeling resentful. She is confident in everything, has an easy-going temper, and can handle anything she encounters calmly.
Steven Boyer plays Jerry Gorsch, deputy chief of the Chicago Fire Department, who has greater political ambitions. He once worked as a grassroots firefighter, but he is not a hard-working person. He just wants to do a relaxing and comfortable job in the fire station headquarters building. Jerry Gorsch and Boden had conflicts in the past and certainly can't get along now.
Kristen Gutoskie plays Chloe, a smart and enthusiastic office clerk who has a crush on a certain firefighter. This firefighter saved her life in a fire, and she planned to go to Fire Station 51 to express her gratitude. Coincidentally, another news stated that "Cruz met a woman who made his heart beat while fighting a fire this season, and he soon began to pursue her." Maybe this lady is referring to Chloe?
Severide's father Benny Severide (Treat Williams) and mother Jennifer Sheridan (Kim Delaney) will both return this season, and the relationship between the family is still so awkward.
Eamonn Walker's performance contract was not renewed at the end of last season. The producers considered that he might quit the crew, so they specially arranged a plot in which "Boden handed over the position of director to Grissom". Later, Eamonn Walker finally signed a performance contract for the seventh season, so Boden naturally "returned" and competed with Grissom's loyal lackey Jerry Gorsch.
Brittany Curran may play Katie again, but this is not confirmed.
Casey's relatives (sister Christie, mother Nancy) may appear again this season, but not in the first half of the season.
Severide and Stella Kidd are finally together, but Severide's love history is full of chaos, and the possibility of him messing up again this time is extremely high. What's more, the situation of Casey and Dawson sounded a warning to them: love between colleagues can easily go wrong.
In this year's crossover between " Chicago Fire ", " Chicago P.D. ", and "Chicago Med" (the second episode of this season), a fire broke out in a 15-story apartment building. The fire spread out of control and many people were trapped on the upper floors of the building, including an "acquaintance" from the fire brigade.Not all rescuers were able to leave the fire scene intact. When a rescuer was sent to Chicago Central Hospital for treatment, the characters of "Chicago Med" including Dr. Connor Rhodes became busy, and "Chicago P.D." Members of the intelligence team also began to investigate the cause of the fire (this was a man-made arson case).
