Levis’ struggles ought to solely be magnified towards a Buffalo protection that’s now virtually again to full well being with the return final week of Taron Johnson and Taylor Rapp, plus the anticipated return Sunday of Ed Oliver. And on offense, assuming Cook dinner returns, the Payments ought to be capable of transfer the ball on the bottom even when Davis finally ends up lacking, and that ought to open issues up within the move recreation for Allen.

SPOILER ALERT! This story accommodates plot factors from Friday’s season 3 premiere of Fireplace Nation on CBS.

Within the episode titled “What the Bride Stated,” disaster wreaked havoc on the Diego and Gabriela nuptials, but it surely wasn’t due to something Bode did after we final noticed him go away the church within the season 2 finale.

As a substitute, a helicopter crashed by means of the stained glass window and solid a pall on the ceremony, prompting everybody in attendance to spring into motion and assist the victims. Right here, showrunner Tia Napolitano addresses why she determined to delay the will-they-or-won’t-they drama and what we are able to anticipate from half 2 of what we’re unofficially dubbing Copter-nado.

DEADLINE What number of totally different situations did you might have for the marriage?

TIA NAPOLITANO We talked about a number of stuff. We actually checked out what viewers are accustomed to by way of weddings that didn’t find yourself occurring. We wished to ensure ours was so much totally different. We kicked round a bunch of concepts within the room. After which one in every of my writers stated, ‘effectively, you wish to crash a helicopter into that marriage ceremony, proper? Deliver the motion to the cleaning soap.’ And I stated, yeah, that’s what we’re going to do.

DEADLINE You have been positively suspending some disbelief there by having Gabriela [Stephanie Arcila] save lives in a marriage costume. Did Stephanie ever get to the purpose the place she was saying, hey that is foolish?

NAPOLITANO She was recreation. She liked it. And actually, they’re not on responsibility. They’re residents serving to till the on-duty firefighters get there. So it’s not like her alternative was to cease serving to and to go get totally different garments. She simply continued to assist and stated ‘screw the costume.’

DEADLINE What’s on the root of Manny [Kevin Alejandro] not wanting his daughter to finish up with Bode?

NAPOLITANO Manny loves his daughter and he roots for her. He loves Bode and he roots for him, too. However that dynamic, to him, appears paying homage to him and Roberta, which was not a totally wholesome relationship. He fears that Bode and Gabriela are drawn to one another for the issues they bring about out in one another … breaking the foundations. They’re a bit bit co-dependent or at all times pushing the envelope in a foul means.

DEADLINE Why the two-parter?

NAPOLITANO Actually, the crew constructed these lovely units. We had that entire forest and the helicopter and all this work went into it. It was so visually spectacular, we wished to remain in that world longer and simply milk it for all the things we might.

DEADLINE Will Gabriela give Diego [Rafael de la Fuente] a solution within the subsequent episode?

NAPOLITANO We are going to get Gabriela’s reply for certain.

DEADLINE You had Rick [Adam Aalderks] work out fairly rapidly that Genevieve [Alix West Lefler] could possibly be his daughter. Why?

NAPOLITANO We all know, we performed round a lot final season with paternity. We actually lived within the unknown for thus lengthy. So this season, we wished to ship the knowledge, the pink meat, and actually digest what penalties come from that info.

DEADLINE Max Thieriot advised us this week that the brand new season is about legacy. Are you able to develop on that?

NAPOLITANO We heard Bode say it within the finale final season. He’s prepared to assert his legacy as a firefighter and as a Leone. We actually wish to dive into what meaning. The Leones are a multi-generation firefighting household. We’ve talked about parental scars handed down from Papa Leone to Vince [Billy Burke] and probably to Bode. What does it appear to be to essentially lock into that household historical past, to essentially have interaction with the place he got here from? After we met Bode, he was a person who didn’t wish to come residence, and now he’s saying, I’m residence and I’m going to dig my heels in, profession clever and household clever. We’ll additionally get into another households on the present. We’ll study a bit bit extra about Eve [Jules Latimer] and the place she comes from. And also you’re going to see a number of new characters. We’ve already introduced we’re going to satisfy a brand new character named Audrey [Levin Ramblin]. And clearly, Jared Padalecki is becoming a member of us for a bit bit to play Captain Casey. We’ve bought a enjoyable visitor solid this season.

DEADLINE Padalecki might end in a possible spinoff. What do you want to this point about what he’s bringing?

NAPOLITANO Oh, I really like the character. Jared himself is great. We wrote Captain Casey with him in thoughts, and we have been fortunate sufficient that he took the position. He’s simply nice with Max on display. They’ve wonderful pal chemistry. And Jared has a bit little bit of enjoyable. You already know, Casey has sass, and he encourages the adventurous aspect of Bode, the aspect of Bode that goes rogue. He encourages the aspect of Bode that perhaps desires to interrupt a rule at times.

DEADLINE Will you must do any extra lifting to assist prepare for the spinoff of Sheriff Nation?

NAPOLITANO That writers room opened final week. They’ve bought their very own writers and their very own showrunner, they usually’re doing nice. We all know a number of associates over there. We had a giant mixer. There might be a number of collaborating. We’ve bought grids to ensure we’re working collectively. We’re in the identical universe, we’re in the identical city. We’re going to be sending a number of service pigeons backwards and forwards to ensure we’re telling a cohesive story.
