Vince’s Death in Fire Country Season 4 Could Strengthen Sharon and Mickey’s Bond in Sheriff Country

by

Warning! SPOILERS about Fire Country season 3, episode 20 ahead.

The catastrophic events of the Fire Country season 3 finale could unexpectedly bring a positive outcome for the upcoming spinoff, focusing on Mickey Fox and her role within the Edgewater County Sheriff’s office. By delving into Mickey’s personal life, the Fire Country spinoff is poised to explore her relationship with Sharon, connecting the firefighting drama with Sheriff Country. Given the impact of Mickey’s presence in Fire Country, family dynamics will surely be a central element in Sheriff Country, potentially expanding upon one character’s storyline following the events of Fire Country season 3.

In the final episode of Fire Country’s third season, Bode’s actions left Sharon and Vince with no choice but to venture into the dangerous Buena Vista building without the necessary gear to save him and Walter. When everyone was safely rescued from the burning facility, Walter’s heartbreaking confusion made it clear that more danger still loomed. This harrowing cliffhanger put all three Leones at risk, setting up a potentially tragic ending for Fire Country season 3.

The uncertainty surrounding the fate of the characters in Fire Country season 3 hints strongly that they may have perished, but recent reports suggest that Billy Burke will not be returning as Vince for Fire Country season 4. This news seems to point towards a grim outcome for Vince in the upcoming season of Fire Country.

Vince’s Death Can Push Sharon & Mickey Even Closer As Sisters In Sheriff Country

The Leone Tragedy Can Make Mickey & Sharon’s Bond Similar To When They Were Kids

The sixth episode of Fire Country’s second season, titled “Alert the Sheriff,” unveiled an intriguing aspect of Mickey and Sharon’s family background, showing how they were exceptionally close when their fathers were together with each other’s mothers. However, this bond was fractured after the couples split apart. In “Alert the Sheriff,” we got a glimpse into the complexities of Mickey and Sharon’s relationship, highlighting the pain of suddenly becoming strangers and the challenges in understanding one another following their long separation, as demonstrated by their misconceptions about each other and viewing each other’s lives as idyllic.

In the sixteenth episode of season 3 in Fire Country titled “Dirty Money,” we saw Mickey’s return, which highlighted the significant evolution in the relationship between Mickey and Sharon since their reunion in season 2. A poignant moment occurred when Mickey confided in Sharon about her longing for Wes, her father, to choose her over his business. Although they made progress, Fire Country’s third season underscored the stark contrast between the lives of Sharon and Mickey. With a loving husband Vince, family around, and her freedom, Sharon found herself in a distinct situation compared to Mickey, who grappled with her father Wes’s issues and Skye’s addiction.

In Fire Country season 4, if Vince tragically passes away due to the fire at the Buena Vista memory care facility, it might offer Mickey and Sharon an unprecedented opportunity to lean on each other. The introduction of the sheriff as a father figure to Mickey in Fire Country season 2, followed by his murder, has already added significant pain to Mickey’s life. However, the loss of Vince could bring Sharon and Mickey closer together, as they both face substantial losses, potentially rekindling the strong bond they once shared as children.

Sharon Needing To Rely More On Mickey Can Make Her More Present In Sheriff Country

Vince’s Death Will Inevitably Force Sharon To Lean On Her Loved Ones

In the first season of “Sheriff Country,” Diane Farr is set to play Sharon Leone, but the extent of her role isn’t clear yet. Vince’s presumed demise might make Sharon more involved in “Sheriff Country” as she turns to her family for support following such a tragedy. Since Vince has been a central figure in Sharon’s life outside work, his death could potentially leave her devastated. Being near Mickey may help Sharon remember that she has other supportive individuals like him beyond Bode, which could lead to them growing closer to Sharon’s family circle.

How The Leone Tragedy Can Unite The Fox-Leone Family As A Whole

Vince Dying Shifts The Focus From The Leone Side Of Bode’s Family To Sharon’s

Sharon and Mickey’s shared past served as the primary link between Sheriff Country and Fire Country, which brought them together for most of Mickey’s roles in the firefighting drama. However, “Dirty Money” provided a sneak peek into their families interacting, introducing Bode’s questionable jobs for Wes. The fact that Bode was willing to stick by Wes despite his line of work, and their joint efforts to uncover who was attempting to harm Wes, hinted at the potential of focusing on the Leones and Foxes working together in Fire Country season 3, episode 16.

If Fire Country delves into the Leone family’s drama, particularly focusing on Vince’s relatives via Walter’s illness and their strained bond, Sheriff Country now has the opportunity to broaden its familial connections by exploring Sharon’s background as well. This isn’t limited to Mickey and Skye Fox; Sharon’s mother could also be introduced. The struggle with addiction faced by Bode and Skye provides a shared narrative thread that both Sheriff Country and Fire Country can utilize to forge links between the loved ones of Mickey and Sharon, drawing them all closer in the aftermath of the catastrophic event in Fire Country season 3.
