On November 9, in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, Grace Hackett had just been dumped by her boyfriend and was walking home holding a bottle of wine when she stumbled into the set of the NBC drama Chicago Fire. Several of the show's stars immediately took to her camera to call out her boyfriend, and the video she posted on TikTok quickly went viral, drawing more than 865,000 views. According to People magazine and The Mary Sue, the encounter happened the night of the breakup.

In the clip, Hackett stands alongside actor Christian Stolte while his co-stars sit on a staircase outside a building. Stolte, who plays Randall “Mouch” McHolland on the series, says to the camera: “Hey, boy, did you screw up, Joe? You've made a huge mistake.” Taylor Kinney, who plays Kelly Severide, chimes in: “What were you thinking, Joe?”

Stolte then says the cast will spend the rest of the night fighting over who gets to take the lady home and drink the wine with her, before adding: “You messed up, Joe. Sorry.” The cast cheers as they declare Hackett's ex-boyfriend a jerk, while Hackett appears to hold back laughter.

“POV. Walking back home after you got dumped. Time to go watch Chicago Fire,” Hackett wrote over the video. “Love a supportive cast! And walking through a TV set post breakup,” she added in the caption. In the comments, she joked that the encounter had made her the series' biggest fan. One commenter called it possibly the most iconic way to go through a breakup.

Chicago Fire follows firefighters and rescue personnel in Chicago. Its 15th season debuted recently, the series has just marked its 300th episode, and it currently airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on NBC, with streaming available on Peacock.
