‘Fire Country’: Jordan Calloway Gives Update on Jake & Violet Romance

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for Fire Country Season 4 Episode 4 “Like a Wounded Wildebeest.”]

Station 42 has a new battalion chief — but it’s not Jake (Jordan Calloway), as he thought it would be after a conversation with Richards (Shawn Hatosy) on Fire Country.

Instead, it’s Manny (Kevin Alejandro) that Richards leaves in charge after witnessing him on a call involving a man stuck in the corn in a silo, which Calloway, who directed the episode, says was “all about the theme that I was going for for this episode, which is pressure.” Manny’s also the one who confronts Bode (Max Thieriot) about the pills he has. By the end of the episode, Bode has flushed the pills, and he and Jake do seem to be on better terms. In fact, Jake and Eve (Jules Latimer) then clue Bode in on the note she found in his father Vince’s guitar case by an “R” threatening to blow up his life by reaching out to Sharon (Diane Farr) about something. Plus, Bode and Audrey (Leven Rambin) break up, and she’s transferring to another station.
