The season finale of Chicago Fire was filled with several wholesome moments, including Casey proposing to Brett for marriage. However, the latter was going through a world of trouble; she wanted to adopt a baby but the process was lengthy and complicated. The baby's mother was reportedly a teenager named Amber who wanted nothing to do with the child.
The only way the process could be sped up is if Amber took custody of the child and named Brett the guardian. Unfortunately, the former didn't want custody but she knew that nobody could love the baby like Brett did. The episode even showcased Casey's bravery but fans are worried that the beloved Mouch might die.
This episode of Chicago Fire, titled Red Waterfall, was directed by Reza Tabrizi and written by Andrea Newman plus Michael Gilvary. It was released on NBC on Wednesday, May 24, 2023.

The woman told him that he was going to enter a world of pain and that she was sorry about what was going to happen to him. After this encounter, Herrmann wasn't able to sleep and was constantly anxious about life and death.
It was then revealed that an anti-government group was planning an attack on the city's power grid. The terrorists were successful and shot powerful bullets at the grip and tragically, Mouch too was caught in the crossfire. He had taken a deadly shot and was hence rushed to the hospital.
