Countdown to Chicago Fire Season 14 Episode 3: Air Date, Time, and Where to Watch
Chicago Fire cranks up the pressure in Season 14 Episode 3, In the Blood, as city budget cuts squeeze the crews and push Pascal toward a high-stakes move. Here’s the release date, time, and where to watch.
Heads up, Chi-Hards: Chicago Fire is back with Season 14, Episode 3, and this one leans into the city-budget-drama-that-feels-a-little-too-real territory. The episode is called 'In the Blood,' and the fallout hits multiple corners of Firehouse 51.
- Date: Wednesday, October 15, 2025
- Time: 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT
- Where to watch: NBC (live broadcast) and Peacock (NBCUniversal's streaming home for its shows, originals, and movies)
What to expect in 'In the Blood': city funding cuts start squeezing the crews, and Pascal decides to handle it the DIY way. Vasquez reaches out to someone from the past for help, and a call in the field lands a little too close to home for Violet. If you like your firefighter drama with a side of real-world pressure, this is that.
Quick refresher if you need it: Chicago Fire follows the firefighters, paramedics, and rescue squad at Firehouse 51, the folks who run toward danger while everyone else heads the other way. The job is risky, stressful, and chaotic, but it’s also the big reason we watch — those life-or-death swings, the found-family dynamics, and the occasional blaze that looks like it took half the VFX budget.
