‘Fire Country’ Season 3: Will Gabriela Marry Diego? (POLL)
Did Gabriela (Stephanie Arcila) say “I do” to Diego (Rafael de la Fuente)? That’s one of the questions Fire Country left fans with at the end of Season 2, and with the fall season just a couple of months away, we’re looking ahead to the returns of our favorite shows, including the firefighter drama on CBS.
At the start of Season 2, Gabriela seemed happy with Diego and excited about their future together. But since the beginning of the series, there have been sparks (that have sometimes ignited) between Bode (Max Thieriot) and Gabriela. But just as it seemed like the two might have a real future together near the end of Season 1, Bode, at his parole hearing, shocked everyone by taking responsibility for drugs at the Three Rock fire camp and getting himself sent back to prison (to help a friend whose release was being held up by the investigation). To say their relationship has been tense since is an understatement, but even her engagement didn’t stop them from sharing a kiss as Season 2 neared the finale.
Then, Bode got an early release and became a free man… but her wedding remained on. While he did show up at the church ready to tell her he loves her, a conversation with her father Manny (Kevin Alejandro) stopped him and he instead, after briefly sitting in a pew, left before anyone said “I do.” And that was the last we saw of the wedding. The Season 3 premiere will reveal if Gabriela and Diego get married.
That decision is now entirely in the couple’s hands. Bode was able to stop himself from saying anything because the person he is now wants her to be happy. “Bode, even though it’s tearing him up inside, can’t take that happiness away from her because it is what he wants,” Thieriot told TV Insider after the finale.
In fact, by leaving like he did, “it’s like he’s trying to close this door,” he continued. “It’s him taking in everything that he’s seen and really trying to move on.” Because at that moment, he does think that Gabriela is going to go through with the wedding.
As for what Gabriela’s feeling standing there, “she is trying so hard to listen to her head over her heart, and she sees [Bode]—who looks into the crowd like that on their wedding day?” said executive producer Tia Napolitano. “You are sort of laser-focused on your future permanent partner, and she looks over and sees him, wills herself to look back at Diego, and then decides to turn and look back. I think she’s hoping to meet his eyes in a way that he’s going to stand up for her and stop that wedding. I really do. And then he’s gone, which sort of leads her to believe, I would think, that’s right. That’s Bode. He does things on a whim. He makes decisions for me. He’s not reliable. Diego is, I’m making the right choice.”
That does make it sound like Gabriela’s ready to say “I do,” even if it’s not for all the right reasons. What we do know, Napolitano teased, is that “regardless of whether [Bode and Gabriela are] together or not, their chemistry, their bond, the way they keep being magnetically drawn to one another is not going to go away.”
So how could Fire Country resolve that cliffhanger? There are certainly a few options. Gabriela and Diego could get married, but it doesn’t last, maybe not even until Episode 2 or they’re divorcing by midseason. One of them doesn’t say “I do”—Gabriela realizes she can’t just follow her head, or Diego can’t deny any longer where her heart truly lies. But what do you think? Do you think Gabriela will marry Diego? Will she follow her head or her heart? Let us know in the poll and comments section, below.

Fire Country...Gabriella doesn't need to marry Diego..it's not in her heart! It doesn't have to be easy or immediate but she does need to be with Bode..He needs to keep trying for Cal Fire...I want to see him with Vince and Sharon and Jake and Eve and Manny working together...there is plenty of drama and fun to be had with that happening at the same time..make it fun!!!

I LOVE fire country, but she can NOT marry anyone but Bode or I'm out! The 2 have an onscreen chemistry you can't deny and they belong with each other.

Hopefully she’ll go with Bode, but I don’t think it’s going to be as easy as it sounds, of course there will be some drama involved.

What I hope happens is Gabriela sees her father is gone and she basically can't go thru with the wedding until she knows where he is . . . so no more wedding. I also hope Bode goes to work with the Hot Shots further North so he's not around his hometown. That said, Gabriela can then wonder where he is and pine for him. Hopefully she will realize marrying Diego would have been a Huge mistake since she is still in love with Bode.

I think she falls in love too easily and seriously do we need another soap opera because happily ever after with where the series is now is not in the cards. She most likely is not marrying anyone for a while.

She will go through with the wedding because she saw Bodi leave. Plus that will add more drama to the show as she still loves Bodi and will have to try to live with her decision.

I think gabi and bode belong together you can see they still love each other . Diego just doesnt seem like the right guy for gabi.

Gabriella should not marry diego . That whole storyline the writers messed up with . Gabriella and Bode are the ones that should be together . She doesn’t really love diego you can see it . Absolutely silly of the writers and producers to do that storyline.
I will be majorly pissed if writers have her marry diego . As it just spoils whole show for me . Its always been about bode and his journey so why ruin it by having the love of his life marry someone else ?

The show won’t be as magnetic if Gabriella marries Diego. The chemistry between her and Bode is electrifying. A definite “driver” in the show. Enough already and get these people back together permanently and follow them on their journey together as a married couple. Besides Bode deserves a healthy start on his happiness, independence and self-worth.

I think if she’s not marry Diego she will find someone else, someone else will come to that town. She’s on fire!!!

She CAN'T MARRY DIEGO!!! I almost boycotted season 2 after the way season 1 ended! I agree though with what was said below I think she won't marry Diego and she will end up with bode but it won't be easy definitely some drams and suspense. Although I would love season 3 episode 1 to start with Bode running back inside and stopping the wedding!!!

R
No I hope she gets back with Bode

Dear Fire Country... Don't do it Gabriella you and Bode need each other!! Plus I want themto

Sure hoping she follows her heart.

You don't marry someone because he will be a good husband and. Take care of you.. you may a man that you love and can't imagine your life without him in it. She is not in love with Deago Like that. The chemistry is not anything. But with Bode is electric! And he loves her so much and hates how he handled the going to prison not talking to her so she would move on, but he regrets that and had apologized, but will she realize she's making a mistake. I hope not! I want her with Bode!

If her head is on straight she will cancel the wedding. You can not love someone so much for most of your life and just walk away because you think that it's the best thing to do. You have to see where it still takes you.

I think Gabriela and Diego should say I do and give Bode a chance to deal with his new found freedom on his own terms without Gabriela. Their connection isn’t going to just disappear.There are so many options and opportunities for Bode for season 3. A relationship will limit and complicate them. I Think there’s a lot of exciting possibilities for Bode!

I think that Gabby will say "I do" but she really doesn't. She is torn between Doago and Bode. I guess that we will find out in Season 3.
