Chicago Fire Season 13 Episode 16 Preview: Dom Pascal is Spiraling as He Seeks Justice
Following the tragic death of his wife, Dom Pascal is determined to get justice on Chicago Fire Season 13 Episode 16, “In the Rubble.” From the looks of the promo video, he’s spiraling, making rash decisions, and losing his temper.
As Pascal’s behavior grows more erratic, the rest of the firefighters at 51 become worried about whether or not he can continue to lead the firehouse. “If he keeps showing up to work like that,” Herrmann says in the promo video, “What do we do?”

Meanwhile, Violet struggles to reach out to Carver with a letter. He’s still away for an unknown amount of time.
Jack Damon could wind up filling that void at 51. He’s hoping to land a permanent spot at the firehouse, and Stella and Kelly have already discussed bringing him back.
Here’s everything you need to know about this episode, including the air date, cast, promo, and how to watch.
