Where Did Our Boy Casey Go? A Dramatic Pause

Okay, so, let's talk about the elephant in the firehouse: Matt Casey. Where did he go? Did he get lost on the way to get more coffee? Did he find a hidden room in Firehouse 51 filled with gold and decided to become a recluse? No? Well, that's a shame.

Casey: From Firefighter to Forest Gump

Remember when Casey was all about saving people and looking ridiculously hot in that uniform? Good times, right? But then, bam, he up and leaves Chicago for the great, wide, and apparently very fire-free state of Oregon. Some say it was for a noble cause – becoming a guardian to those kids. Others (like me) suspect he just couldn’t handle the competition from Severide’s hair.

Seriously though, leaving Chicago for Oregon is like trading deep-dish pizza for kale smoothies. I mean, don’t get me wrong, kale is great, but it’s no pizza.

The Return of the Prodigal Firefighter

Now, there was this whole thing where Casey came back, all mysterious and brooding. I was like, "Casey, is that you? You look like you've been eating too many of those Oregon pine cones." But then he proposed to Brett, and I was like, "Okay, maybe you're not so bad after all."

So, the question is: will Casey stay in Chicago? Will he bring back some weird Oregon accent? Will he start a lumberjack competition at Firehouse 51? The possibilities are endless, and I, for one, am here for the drama.
