Fire Country Season 5 Episode 4 photos preview “Winners and Losers,” airing tonight, Friday, October 30, from 9:00–10:00 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. Station 42 faces increased scrutiny as Bode and the volunteer firefighters encounter a difficult test that takes them toward an unexpected rescue.

Max Thieriot stars as Bode Leone, with Olivia Thirlby as CJ Ryan. Sheriff Country star W. Earl Brown guest stars in tonight’s episode, adding another connection between the two Edgewater dramas.

What Is “Winners and Losers” About?

A growing controversy puts Station 42 under the microscope. Against that backdrop, Bode and the volunteer firefighters must face a challenging test, with the situation ultimately leading them to a rescue they did not anticipate.

The volunteer program remains central to Bode’s story as its firefighters take on this latest challenge. CBS’s preview leaves the nature of the controversy, the test and the rescue undisclosed.

W. Earl Brown Guest Stars

Brown, who plays Wes Fox on Sheriff Country, appears as a guest star. The announcement confirms his participation without revealing the circumstances of his visit.

The Fire Country ensemble also includes Kevin Alejandro as Manny Perez, Diane Farr as Sharon Leone, Jordan Calloway as Jake Crawford and Jules Latimer as Eve Edwards. Official episode photo listings feature Thieriot, Thirlby and Latimer, including a still of Bode and Eve together.

“Winners and Losers” is written by Kristi Korzec and directed by Quincy Paglaro.
