Warning! SPOILERS about Fire Country season 3, episode 14 ahead.
The unexpected death inFire Countryseason 3, episode 13’s ending shocked Three Rock to its core, butthe events following Eve’s attempts to investigate it in season 3, episode 14 hint at a major danger ahead for everyone at the fire camp. While Birch was never the focus beforeFire Countryseason 3, his defiance towards Manny after he called out his drinking and Eve learned about the contraband alcohol being in the fire camp propelled Birch at the center of the drama.Birch’s death inFire Countryseason 3, episode 13thus risks shifting Three Rock’s careful balance.
The contraband alcohol problem could have already threatened Three Rock if it got out, as the drug scandal inFire Countryseason 1 proved by changing Three Rock’s management even if Bode had never relapsed.Fire Countryseason 2 still bore the consequences of Sleeper’s plot against Bode, as Manny had been demoted to firefighter and Three Rock almost closed down, not doing so only thanks to Station 42’s efforts.The worrisome details regarding the investigation into Birch’s death and how it was stonewalledinFire Countryseason 3nonetheless allude to major impending threatsagainst everyone at Three Rock.
Three Rock Continues To Be Impacted By The Illness That Killed Birch
What Happened With Birch’s Sister Is Incredibly Odd
Birch’s illness hit him suddenly, having him develop strange symptoms that eventually killed him.As Eve championed the investigation into what caused his death, convincing his sister to consider asking for an autopsy on Birch,everything that happened after his death was suspicious at bestand with a clear intention to muddy the results of the investigation if the worst was to be believed.
Fire Country Season 4: Confirmation, Cast & Everything We Know
The gripping CBS procedural series, Fire Country, has blazed a trail for itself across three seasons so far, and now it has been renewed for season 4.
Between the inmates’ harrowing experience of seeing Station 42’s firefighters trying to resuscitate Birch in front of them and losing their friend unexpectedly to an unexplained illness that looked like a cold, Eve and Manny had their hands full at Three Rock.What was even more worrying was the rush put on the cremation of Birch’s body, which opposed the talk Eve and Manny had with Birch’s sister and had Eve and Manny immediately feel paranoid about someone trying to cover up the truth about Birch’s death.
Birch’s Death & Manny’s Illness Hint At A Major Three Rock Conspiracy In Fire Country Season 3
It’s Unclear Who Is Trying To Get Manny & The Other Three Rock Inmates
Fire Countrynever explained why there was a push for the closure of all fire camps in general, and Three Rock particularly, in season 2. With the past threats against Three Rock going unexplained and the unlikely push not to have Birch’s death investigated,Eve’s fear that someone might have wanted to cover the truth up could be justified. Indeed, the reaction of Birch’s sister was also worrisome, as she seemed amenable at first and completely closed-off once Eve called her atFire Countryseason 3, episode 14’s ending.
Manny took Birch under his wing inFire Countryseason 3, episode 10, helping him swear off alcohol after Birch’s initial refusal to own up to his mistake almost cost everyone at Three Rock their privileges.
Manny’s return to his leadership role inFire Countryseason 3meant he spent a lot of time with Birch, helping him get sober after his impassioned speech about owning up to his mistakes.With Manny effectively acting as the glue between all inmates and Eve, and his symptoms appearing very similar to Birch’s before he died, Three Rock is effectively under attackfrom several fronts. Manny being a keyFire Countrycharacter also ups the stakes of the fight to protect Three Rock, as everyone in the firefighting drama is close to him, making his potential death massively impactful.
