‘Fire Country’ Adds Mike O’Malley as Danny Marks — What He Means for Bode
What To Know
- Fire Country has cast Mike O’Malley as Danny Marks, someone from Bode’s past.
- Check out character details, plus an exclusive sneak peek and photos.
Bode’s (Max Thieriot) past has come back, and because of it, he could “lose everything,” as he notes in the Friday, May 8, episode of Fire Country.
TV Insider can exclusively reveal that Mike O’Malley is playing Danny Marks, the man whose house Bode broke into 10 years ago, through the rest of Season 4. Bode confessed to doing so following Danny’s accusation surfacing online at the end of the May 1 episode. The finale airs May 22. We also have first-look photos and a clip of him.
Danny is described as “down on his luck, shabby, jacked up on fear and adrenaline.” The “angry homeowner brandishes a baseball bat while confronting a late-night intruder, only to be seriously injured himself.”
In our clip from Friday’s episode, which you can watch above, Bode’s taking time in the middle of Jake’s (Jordan Calloway) bachelor party to watch Danny’s video calling him out. “Ten years ago, I was attacked by a guy who broke into my home. They’re calling this guy a hero. Now, I’ve been reaching out to Cal Fire, but they’re ignoring me, so Bode Leone, if you’re listening, I’m talking to you,” Danny says. Eve (Jules Latimer) tries to stop him, but Bode presses play again. “Bode, you ruined my life,” Danny says, promising, “I won’t stop until you answer for it.”
Watch the full sneak peek above for more, including what Bode wants to do, what Eve warns him could happen if he does, and his reaction.
In this next episode, titled “Best Man,” CBS teases, “When Bode’s past resurfaces far from Edgewater, a volatile chain of events leads to a perilous off-duty rescue that forces him to confront guilt, accountability, and what it truly means to step up when lives – and friendships – are on the line.”

Plus, we have two exclusive photos of Bode going to see Danny from Episode 19, titled “Rain Check for Tomorrow” and airing on May 15. In that episode, “When a volatile blaze at the Pineville Dam triggers a cascading infrastructure failure, Station 42 races to execute a series of perilous rescues.” Then, in the finale, titled “Try Not to Drown,” CBS teases, “After a catastrophic dam failure unleashes historic floodwaters across Edgewater, Station 42 and Three Rock battle rising waters and dwindling resources.” As we previously revealed, Shawn Hatosy returns as Brett Richards in these two episodes.

Don’t know but hoping it leads to Chloe leaving. Can’t stand the way they ignored consequences with her and Tyler and disrespecting Vince’s memory.

Didn’t Bode already have to face a man during his parole hearing that he robbed at gunpoint. Kind of seems like a repeat storyline. The show just isn’t as exciting as it use to be when Gabriela and Vince were on there.

I think Bode will try reaching out and apologize and try to make up for past harms. I believe Danny will resist his kindness and make trouble for Bode, but in the end Bode will rescue Danny in his time of need and eventually Danny makes peace with Bode.

Other than suing Bode there is nothing he can do. The statute of limitations has run on the break in.

Please get rid of Chloe. The storyline is absolutely horrendous. Chloe and Bode do not have the Clay/Stella magic

I'm sure Bode will try to do the right thing by making amends with this Danny guy (he's in AA people, it's one of the 12 steps....not a far-fetched storyline), but I'm sure there will be plenty of made-for-tv drama that ensues. I really think the writers screwed the pooch when they let Gabriella go. So much more drama/cute friendship/romance with her than with Audrey and Chloe. Love those 2 actresses, but it was like he was kissing his sister. I know I'm in the minority being NEVER a fan of Billy Burke (questionable choice for a fire chief in this case), but I like the potential new romantic involvement for Sharon. Barely hanging on to watching this show so something has to get kicked up a notch.

Somehow Bode Will probably have to rescue Danny or something will happen that they become friends & Bode’s name will be cleared of any wrongdoing!

It's weird too since he produces both shows. I see them trying to always make some drama for the Sheriff specificallyevery other episode.
