Spoilers ahead for the second episode of Chicago Fire Season 14, called "Primary Search" and available streaming next day with a Peacock subscription.
After the Chicago Fire Season 14 premiere wrapped up some stories like Damon transferring to another firehouse, Carver settling in to his new life in Denver, and Stella's short-lived pregnancy plot, Episode 2 dedicated some more time to Ritter. Daniel Kyri had been among the cast members whose departures were confirmed before the fall of the 2025 TV schedule, but Fire bought him back for the first couple episodes to set up his exit. While I knew that I'd be bummed to lose Ritter from 51, he did get a pretty solid sendoff.
