"Chicago Fire" Season 5 is now on a hiatus but when it returns early next month, viewers will be treated to explosive episodes. One of them will even come with a surprising return of a character.
Antonio’s ex-wife enters the picture
According to “Chicago Fire” Season 5 spoilers, America Oliva will be back in the series to reprise her role as Laura, Antonio’s (Jon Seda) ex-wife. She is expected to make her appearance in episode 12 of the current season. It could be remembered that Laura first appeared in “Chicago P.D.”
Antonio’s new girlfriend
Details of Laura’s return back into the Chicago fold are not known. Interestingly though, “Chicago Fire” Season 5 is where Sylvie Brett (Kara Killmer) appears. She is currently dating Antonio in a cross-over romance. Seda, who has been a series regular in “Chicago P.D.” has made the big move to the newest Chicago spinoff “Chicago Justice”. But, as with all the other actors of the sister shows, he is still expected to appear in his original show in crossover episodes.
Louie’s birth father surfaces
In other news regarding “Chicago Fire” Season 5, something will happen on the way of Casey (Jesse Spencer) and Dawson (Monica Raymund) making their being parents to Louie official just after getting married. The birth father suddenly appears and thus making things difficult for the couple to adopt Louie.
Protecting Louie at all costs
“Chicago Fire” Season 5 EP Derek Haas teased in an interview that this particular storyline will be surprising to viewers since the story will not go where people think it would. It is not going to the direction the viewers will expect. It is complicated as Dawson is fiercely protective of Louie. And, since Casey also wants to be his dad, the two of them will pull out all the stops and do whatever it takes to protect Louie.
Knowing what Louie has been through, Casey and Dawson want to give him the stability and the love he needs in his young life. The show, according to Haas, will try to answer what the couple should be doing given their situation. “Chicago Fire” Season 5 returns on January 3, Tuesday, on NBC.
