Of course, Spencer leaving Chicago Fire comes at a cost in regard to the further exploration of Casey and Bretty's romantic relationship.

It felt so organic for me and a perfect full circle and a really reasonable way for Casey to organically leave the show." So I had to sit on this stuff and it was hard. The guilt and the longing and then the desire to pull together and help the kid, which is what he always wanted, and the hope for the future, were the things that really stood out. We had that time for Casey to go over how his best friend died and have to explain it to his son, I was just trying to hold it together. To go back to the house where we filmed the pilot. It was a really, really, really nice full circle for Griffin to show back up and Ben's in trouble and the mom's in jail and he can't really bring them to Chicago as he first thought that he could. "But how do we get him out? He's using this new relationship and things, I think, were going relatively well.

"When we were trying to figure out how to write me out by the 200th, we were spitballing a little bit and then the idea of bringing Griffin and Ben came back up and it felt like full circle because we didn't want to kill Casey," Spencer added. I don't know that it'll ever happen again like this." In fact, I never do a preamble in a script but in this one, because it was the 200th episode, I had a little preamble in the script about what the crew and the cast and everybody means to me because it really is special. Sometimes you picture what it's going to be and then it's better than what you thought it was going to be. So that was a really difficult scene to write," he said of the closing minutes of the episode when Boden told Casey he would be "dearly missed." "You feel it intensely. I don't want to talk too much because I might get emotional, but you get to put into a way better speaker than yourself, Eamonn Walker, things that you wanted to say to them. "Every now and then, you write scenes that you want the cast and crew to hear what's going through your own head. Haas choked up when asked about the genesis of the emotional goodbye scenes between Casey and Boden (Eamonn Walker), Severide (Taylor Kinney) and the other members of 51 to close out Spencer's time on Chicago Fire. Haas revealed during the call that Casey's presence will still be felt even after Wednesday's episode: "We are going to hear his voice after the 200th." But I was very happy that he gave us five more episodes than just saying at the end of a season, which happens sometimes too: 'I'm out.' That let us bring back a storyline from season 1, which I know Jesse was excited about when we pitched it to him, to bring back the Darden boys and really tie in the pilot to Jesse's leaving."īut this won't be the last time viewers will see, or rather hear, Spencer. I feel like we've been in borrowed time for a long time," Haas, who also participated in the conference call, acknowledged. "I, of course, want to talk Jesse into staying and coming back, and doing all of the things as long as we could. You just don't know when you sign up and move to a different part of the country and stay on, that you're going to be on as long as you were. "I feel like all of us feel anything past the first 13 episodes was a bonus. But when the time comes, the time comes." It was a difficult decision, and I hate to leave the show because I do love this show. I was marking off these milestones and looking to the future. Derek didn't want me to leave, but we both agreed that if it was time for me, then it was time. And 18 years is a long time, that's a long stretch. There's some family that I need to take care of. But there's other things that I would like to do in the future. "It was a difficult decision because I've loved the show from the start. And he agreed that we should at least get Casey to 200 episodes," Spencer said.
I called Derek on making a personal decision and broke him the news that I thought it was time to leave the show.
