Bobby resigns as the leader of the team after he and Athena (Angela Bassett) deal with a life-threatening situation and their house goes up in flames in the process.
Christopher makes this choice because he is angry with Eddie for lying, and it seems that Eddie is dealing with the change by trying on a new look for 9-1-1 season 8. Elsewhere in the season 7 finale, Bobby (Peter Krause) is replaced as the captain of the 118 by the loathsome Captain Gerrad (Brian Thompson). Bobby resigns as the leader of the team after he and Athena (Angela Bassett) deal with a life-threatening situation and their house goes up in flames in the process.
Hen (Aisha Hinds) and Karen (Tracie Thoms) faced their own setbacks with the adoption process, as Hen drew the ire of a popular politician. The only two characters that seemed to end the season on an uncomplicated note were Maddie (Jennifer Love Hewitt) and Chimney (Kenneth Choi), who got married at last. But even that milestone takes place after Chimney almost dies. Suffice it to say, there is a lot to deal with when 9-1-1 season 8 debuts beyond the bee crisis.
