‘Chicago Fire’ season 4, episode 6 preview: Is Patterson on the way out?

If there is one thing that we can say at the moment about most of the “Chicago Fire” following, it is this: There are not many fans of Captain Patterson out there. The character is getting a heck of a lot of grief at the moment, and we understand why given that he has treated Severide at times like dirt.

On Tuesday night’s new episode, you can prepare to see this conflict explode in many ways after an incident causes the two to go toe-to-toe with each other. We’d say to ultimately expect conflict and plenty of it with this story, and also for some other characters to try to get involved in some ways.

The synopsis below does a pretty solid job of giving you at least a few more clues as to what to expect:

“Chief Boden (Eamonn Walker) meets his new neighbor (guest star Ilfenesh Hadera), who asks him for a favor that leads to serious consequences. Severide (Taylor Kinney) takes offense to being treated like a candidate by Captain Patterson (guest star Brian White) by undermining him during a call and the situation reaches a boiling point. Cruz (Joe Minoso) receives a surprise visit from his past when Freddie (guest star Ralph Rodriguez), a gangbanger who knows Cruz’s brother Leon, comes to visit and ask for a favor. Elsewhere, the team is called to a harrowing scene of an 18-wheeler and receive a thanks in the form of tickets to see the band Rush, much to Mouch (Christian Stolte) and Herrmann’s (David Eigenberg) delight.”
