Cruz Takes Center Stage
Joe Cruz (Joe Minoso) has largely been in the background throughout Chicago Fire's 12th season. Although he had some plotlines early on, especially involving his bond with Kelly Severide (Taylor Kinney), his character has mostly stayed out of the spotlight. That’s all about to change in the upcoming episodes, where Cruz will face his most challenging moments yet, both in his professional and personal life.
Fighting for Javi
In the May 1 episode titled "The Wrong Guy," Cruz’s life takes a dramatic turn when someone from his adopted son Javi’s past resurfaces. The synopsis teases: “Cruz’s family is threatened when someone from Javi's past resurfaces.” Javi, whom Cruz rescued from a house fire in season 11, has become a central figure in Cruz’s life.
Their growing bond led Cruz to adopt him, a heartwarming moment that touched many fans.
Cruz's resolve will be tested as he fights to protect Javi. The fear of losing his son is a terrifying possibility, making this storyline one of the most emotional Cruz has faced.
Marriage Under Pressure
Adding to the tension, Cruz’s marriage with Chloe (Kristen Gutoskie) is on shaky ground.
