While Bode and Jake always had their major problems
Eve helped them with, little put her at the center of Fire Country
season 1’s story. Indeed, only her romantic relationships
with Aydan and Mel helped revealing more about Eve, as every other personal interaction she had showed how she followed the rules at Station 42 and was a supportive friend to Jake and Bode. Fire Country season 2 expanding Eve and Gabriela’s friendship already showed a more emphatic side of Eve, but it still never put Eve and her problems at the center.Renkin playing with Eve’s doubts that she may be seen as a disappointment by her family after she hadn’t talked with them in six years can showcase the qualities Eve already proved had when helping Bode in Fire Country season 2, but this time with a storyline that puts her at the center. Eve’s vulnerability in Fire Country season 3, episode 4 finally establishes her isolation from the Edwards as a major problem she will need to face, setting it up as Eve’s key storyline that can also impact Cal Fire in Fire Country season 3.
