Hopefully, all these questions and more will be answered when the show returns.

For now, here’s everything we know about what to expect from Chicago Fire Season 13.

Where Did Chicago Fire Season 12 Leave Off?

Chicago Fire Season 12 Episode 13 was chock full of jaw-dropping moments.

For one, Chief Boden was promoted to the Deputy Commissioner position, beating out Paramedic Chief Robinson for the job.

This promotion was the show’s way of writing Boden out since Eamonn Walker decided he wanted to take a step back from Chicago Fire.

This move allows Walker to return as Boden periodically, so thankfully, we don’t have to say goodbye forever.

In an emotional exchange, Carver confessed to Violet that he’s fallen in love with her.

Their relationship was always supposed to be casual and no strings attached, but feelings had clearly been brewing between the two of them for some time.

The episode ended with Violet searching for Carver after finding out from Stella that he’d taken more time off.

Kelly told Stella that he’d been thinking about having a baby, and Stella was thrown for a loop.

Fans predicted this storyline, but we didn’t see much of Stella’s reaction before the credits rolled.

Before finding out he got the deputy commissioner job, Boden asked Herrmann to take his place as Chief if he left 51.

The biggest moment of the finale was newcomer Jack Damon’s big announcement.

He finally pulled Kelly aside to tell him the secret he’d been keeping for weeks: his father was Benny Severide, making him Kelly’s half-brother.
