Chicago Fire Season 12 Episode 7 Review: Red Flag

Uh, no.

Who did not know as quickly as Chief Robinson was launched that she was going to be hassle?

Well, Chicago Fire Season 12 Episode 7 simply proved it.

What do all of you do in your lives?

Do you make it your online business to tear down any and all the things that you do not perceive, agree with, or condone, regardless of who it impacts?

I positive as hell hope not. It’s such a depressing place to be, and it has been a guiding mild of this collection since Chicago Fire Season 1.

Well earlier than we knew this place just like the backs of our palms, individuals had been making an attempt to destroy it. It could possibly be ironic that first responders and rescuers are all the time beneath assault, however as an alternative, it is simply annoying.

It’s pure to revisit storylines on long-running reveals, however the variety of occasions individuals have infiltrated Firehouse 51 to rush alongside its demise is alarming.

There are three-alarm fires, after which there are the Firehouse 51 naysayers.

Jealous a lot?

These storylines spotlight infantile individuals who snarl and work underhandedly to realize their nefarious targets. The worst half about “Red Flag” was that it got here at us on two fronts.

Well, I lied. Even worse than the two-fronted assault was that the characters on the core of them had been buffoons.

Look, we all the time knew that when Sylvie Brett left, Violet would spend a great deal of time struggling consequently. Nobody ever will get a great accomplice when their outdated departs. That could be too regular.

Normal individuals go to work and simply have a day. Things occur. They might go your manner or they might not, however you’ll be able to typically relaxation assured that no one is out to get you.

(*7*)

Chief Robinson is cartoonish in her deception and want to destroy Firehouse 51. In what world would not one chief give one other a heads-up a couple of new worker? Any new worker, not to mention one who’s tasked with saving lives!

When Robinson did go to Boden far too late to be of any service, her face distorted when she tried a smile, one participating sufficient to be present in Smile 2, coming this fall.

There wasn’t a touch of camaraderie or fact behind that smile, and it made me sick. She was virtually gleeful at treating her fellow Chief with such disdain.

So who within the hell is she?

Robinson has been in for Ambo 61 since we first acquired wind of her on Chicago Fire Season 12 Episode 3. I assumed it might have been as a result of Sylvie and Violet had been chasing unhealthy guys as an alternative of doing their job, however there needs to be extra to it than that.

The manner she’s enjoying it, it is as if she has it out for the entire of Chicago Fire.

Why would you threat lives by toying with medics?

Braying that she needs the perfect for the CFD is unnecessary. She pulled a really inexperienced medic from the burbs to accomplice with Violet her first day out at PIC.

There’s no manner she missed the indicators of the boys’ community that should have been the Greenview Fire Department. As a girl, that is not one thing you overlook.

You would not need anybody to rethink bringing on a person’s man to a job the place you, a girl, are in management, however when you spot it, that you must bear in mind and accommodate the habits.

Honestly, I thought-about that it was all a mistake and that Danny might need been Dani, and Violet and Stella are so used to issues going fallacious that they misinterpret Lennox’s intentions.

Silly me!

Lennox is each disrespectful and overly verbose. Calling out Violet as “new” on scene was callous and impolite and will have value a person his life.

If his spouse had been of a thoughts, she may have demanded Violet cease therapy. Then what would have occurred?

By the top of the hour, it appeared like Lennox was introduced in particularly by Robinson to make waves. Why else would he open up with Carver and start bad-mouthing his coworkers?

Sure, it isn’t the primary time Carver has taken that function, however nothing about him screams confidante.

We additionally had the nitwits from the Chicago PD hoping to abscond with drug cash and doubtless hoping no nail its disappearance on a teenage lady within the course of.

Severide is all the time in safety mode and dealt with the problem effectively, however that complete story was bordering on farce.

Apologies to the fellows enjoying the CPD officers, however they had been very misplaced. Perhaps that is how the scripts had been written. Or maybe the effectively of expertise in Chicago is lastly drying up after over 25 full seasons of content material created with out too many acquainted faces.

As a young person caught in an not possible state of affairs, Maya was additionally off-kilter. Someone was making an attempt to kill her on a metropolis road, and he or she did not make a peep. Her facial features by no means modified.

Look, I really like the Chicago universe, however care must be taken in order that too many ludicrous, over-the-top tales do not happen directly.

You may assume which means Mouch’s antics with the parking ticket. Nope. That’s what we anticipate — lighthearted and playful scenes to offer levity for the extra terrifying scenes of fires and spiders choking the life out of individuals.

But when what is meant to be a dramatic scene is crammed with characters doing their finest Snidely Whiplash impressions, then they have to be known as out.

How the present would get well after shedding Gallo and Brett was a priority, and that is not going away any time quickly.

The unusual look on Ritter’s face as he hid his new man from view was bizarre. It appeared unusual that swiftly, he was anxious about his sexuality, so it was a reduction that it was a bit of totally different than that.

Chippy, I’m not secretly homosexual. I’m secretly relationship a cop.

Ritter

But to make use of the present’s title, the man going by means of Ritter’s pockets and even trying on the dates on his receipts was a “Red Flag.”

We want a bit of romance, so here is hoping the man seems to be a great catch and never one other Snidley in disguise. We have sufficient darkish characters lurking round. Bring on the enjoyment!

I assume the excellent news is that we’re already midway accomplished with Chicago Fire Season 12, so we do not have to strap in for too tough of a journey because the forces of darkness attempt to shut Firehouse 51.
