Jelly Roll Brings a Touch of Country to CBS’s Fire Country in Exclusive Clip
In a highly anticipated episode of the hit firefighting drama, Fire Country, country superstar Jelly Roll makes a guest appearance, bringing a unique perspective to the show. According to an exclusive clip obtained by Good Housekeeping, Jelly Roll’s character, Noah, has an emotional conversation with Billy Burke’s character, Vince Leone, that will leave viewers moved.
The upcoming episode, titled "Fire and Ice," is set to air on Friday, April 11, 2025, at 9 p.m. ET on CBS. In this installment, Vince struggles to connect with his father, Walter, who resides in an elder care facility to help him with his dementia diagnosis. Jelly Roll plays Walter’s caretaker, Noah, who has a past involving stints in jail. As Noah and Vince sit in a car to talk about Walter, Noah makes a confession about understanding Vince a bit more than the latter may expect.
In the exclusive clip, Noah reveals to Vince that he has a personal connection to dementia, having lost his own mother to the disease. Jelly Roll, as Noah, states, "I get it, I really do. I lost my own mother to dementia. I’m still ashamed to admit it, but I was kinda grateful she forgot who I was. The last time I got to see my momma was from behind prison glass. When she didn’t recognize me, I figured at least she didn’t have to deal with all the heartbreak of seeing her boy locked up. But I made a vow right then I was gonna be that good boy that she raised and remembered."
This emotional confession leads Vince to open up about his own son, Bode, who has been in prison. The conversation between Noah and Vince highlights the complexities of their characters and the challenges they face. As Good Housekeeping reports, Max Thieriot, who plays Bode, shared that fans should be prepared for a surprise with Jelly Roll’s character, stating, "I think fans should come in not knowing what to expect and with an open mind. While he’s telling a story of someone who’s gone through some difficult things in their personal life, his character will really leave a big impact on Vince."
