The new Chicago Fire episode will have Kelly Severide working with Tom Van Meter again.
Captain Van Meter is a commander and arson investigator for the Chicago Fire Department’s Office of Fire Investigation (Ofi).
When Ofi becomes part of an episode, fans already know that it means a suspicious fire has happened.
Van Meter is featured in the April 3 episode called Something About Her. Actor Tim Hopper returns to play the character, giving “Fire Cop” a chance to shine with him.
This will serve as Chicago Fire Season 12, Episode 9, leaving just four more new episodes after it to debut this spring.
“Severide, Kidd, and Van Meter investigate a fire at a recording studio. Kylie helps James keep a secret from Boden. Mouch struggles to maintain boundaries with a paramedicine client,” reads the Chicago Fire synopsis for April 3.

Taylor Kinney is taking a leave of absence from Chicago Fire, the series he has starred on as fan-favorite Kelly Severide since 2012.
The actor’s departure is due to a personal matter, a source close to production confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter following Wednesday night’s episode, which began to handle the shift for the character.
The actor did not appear in the episode, titled “Damage Control,” but his character’s wife, Stella Kidd (Miranda Rae Mayo), acknowledged his absence after it was explained that Severide had left to attend a top arson investigation program. The conversation between Captain Tom Van Meter (Tim Hopper) and Wallace Boden (Eamonn Walker) strongly implied the character will return, as Van Meter explained that Severide jumping on the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity will give him expertise that will benefit the entire firehouse when he returns.
NBC declined to comment about Kinney’s departure and if he will return.

Taylor Kinney’s Kelly Severide is off getting some specialized arson training.
During Wednesday’s episode of Chicago Fire on NBC, Chief Wallace Boden (Eamonn Walker) learns from Captain Tom Van Meter (Tim Hopper) that Taylor Kinney’s character, Severide, has been abruptly sent off to receive some of “the best arson investigation training program in the world.” The very quick reference to Severide’s whereabouts — or lack thereof — happened at the top of the episode and did not feature an appearance by Kinney.
“I know it will be a burden on this house for a while,” Van Meter tells a disappointed Boden.
You can say that again.
In January, Deadline broke that Kinney is taking a leave of absence from the NBC drama to deal with a personal matter. Kinney has starred as the firefighter on the Dick Wolf procedural since its launch in 2012.
