Fire Country put Bode Leone and Audrey James through the wringer in training but did they both graduate?

Spoilers ahead of Fire Country season 3 episode 7

Fire Country had a full on hostage situation in "False Alarm," an episode that saw Camden Casey, Bode Leone, and Audrey James being left at a weed dispensary by Station 42 to verify that there really wasn't a fire in the building. In actuality, the scene they arrived at was a robbery and they became a part of the equation when they didn't move fast enough to declare that there was no cause for alarm for the former employee robbing the joint.

Bode and Camden were tasked with opening the dispensary's vault but Audrey wasn't sitting idly by. She, with the help of two employees, worked her way out of her zip-tie to try to get them all to safety. Unfortunately, she was caught and shot for her efforts, but it wasn't a life threatening wound and she remained mobile. Camden was the one who threw himself at the robber which led to shots flying wildly, piercing combustible containers and causing a fire.

Still, the trio were able to save everyone, including the down and out thief, and it was a decent wrap up to Bode and Audrey's training program with Cal Fire. Bode, however, spent the episode thinking he wasn't going to graduate. Camden had told him point blank that his disobedience on their last incident with the eaglets was an indicator that he wasn't ready to be the maverick firefighter that Camden thought he could be. He even tried to keep him from coming on the call but Bode defied him.

In the aftermath of the hostage situation, Bode found out what was really wrong with Camden. He was trying to shape him into a surrogate for his brother, Patrick, whom he'd lost years ago in the fire that took the lives of his whole crew. Bode rightfully called Camden out on his hypocrisy. He'd spent the majority of his training time with Bode trying to get him to cut ties with his family, friends, and the people of Edgewater when Camden couldn't shake his own allegiances and grief.

Bode pushing back and pointing out the ways they're similar moved Camden enough to change his mind on not letting him graduate. It also helped that Bode's fighting spirit was never snuffed out. He was clear that Camden failing him wouldn't keep him from re-applying to the program and trying again just like Audrey had done. His determination to become a firefighter didn't live or die on Camden's opinion and he wasn't going to let his trainer stop him from achieving his goal.

"False Alarm" ended with Bode having received his certificate along with the rest of his fellow cadets and having secured a spot at 42. Audrey was also selected to work at the station so the two will continue to work closely together.
