What to Expect from Chicago Fire Season 14 Episode 20: Speak of the Devil
Last thing we saw on Chicago Fire Season 14 Episode 19, “Exit Point,” was Stella opening an envelope with all the files she wanted about Hopkins and Kelly’s father. Now on Chicago Fire Season 14 Episode 20, “Speak of the Devil,” Severide is picking up a cold case that was buried decades ago, and we can’t help but wonder if it’s related.
Could it be that the information Stella received helps Severide understand why Hopkins is coming after him? Or is this cold case completely unrelated to Hopkins, and just another way to tell us that Severide should be working at OFI full-time?

Meanwhile, the team must continue operating business as usual. When they answer a call, Novak quickly realizes it hits too close to home. Could it be related to her family history?
Here’s everything you need to know about this episode, including the air date, cast, promo, and how to watch.
