India, March 12 -- Dermot Mulroney, who plays Chief Dom Pascal on Chicago Fire, is set to leave the show. Season 14 episode 14 has set up a storyline intended to accommodate his exit from the role.

The episode Hit and Run sets up the storyline after news had broken in January that Mulroney would be taking a 'hiatus' from the show. Fans can rest easy because Mulroney's exit is not a permanent one. He will be away from the series for a bit but his return is confirmed. However, it is not exactly clear when he is coming back and whether it will be before the finale of season 14.

As Mulroney takes a step back, Rob Morgan will fill in as Battalion Chief Hopkins who will be overseeing Firehouse 51.
