The Surprise and Shocker:Chicago PD "Born Into Bad News" Season Finale


In this season finale of Chicago PD, there's nothing but intense, emotion and even a surprise or two that will have you stun.

So, Erin is not quite herself since Nadia's death. She's turn to her mother and got into a bit of a relationship with an old friend. That didn't turn out the way we hope.

Erin wakes up hangover, late to work as well. Voight and the retired Captain had a meeting about his nephew getting in some trouble with another task force.

When Voight gives the intelligence the download of the situation. Erin comes in late and after talking about the whole situation, Voight ask Erin to come in his office. He tells her that he needs her to be on top of things, notice that she's been late. She tells him that she's fine and is on top.

Voight has a plan to get these guys caught but is going to need Erin to be part of it. She goes and meets with the unit. She asked them a question that grills them. She tells them that Voight has a job for them to do. They meet with Voight at a bar and they agreed on the job.

Erin goes with the guys as Voight and the gang are watching from all four corners of the house. They go in and threaten the dealer of his money. He only had a few thousand dollars but it was when the dealers child come outs and the leader of the group puts a gun to the child's head and threatens.

Erin took to heart to stop this and shoots the guy. Voight and the rest head in and takes down the guys, getting them on taking money and selling drugs. The charges against the group of cops didn't stick because of Erin not being there and not taking the drug test because she would fail.

Worst part is that Bunny comes in the Station and ask for Erin because she has a gift for her, a photo of her and Nadia. Boy did Voight had her removed from the building. The lady just can't take a hint at all. Erin  is grieving and she's using that to get close to her.

Voight finds out about Erin when she came back. He relieves her from her duties and goes home.

Voight gets a phone call from the retired Captain. He tells him that he has his nephew and that they need to meet with him until a gang circles them and shoots them. The nephew comes out alive.

Voight and the gang takes a look around. He then talks with the nephew of what he's hiding, because the one of the guys mention an address that they hit. The nephew took some money.

The gang makes a moves in on a Latin drug kings, demanding on where these guys are hitting. They mention that they're going to take out a lady cop, which is  Erin.

Erin gets home with bag of grocery and her friend is there with beer and booze hoping to have some down time. When they go in, the gang is there and hits her friend in the head.  Erin is like totally cool and scared.

Atwater and Roman get there in time, Atwater takes out one in the leg and saves Erin. Just before that scene happen, you can see Erin just in like she's embarrassed with what's going on.

The leader apparently wasn't there and Voight makes a one ride there to his house and they have a meet and greet. The guy leaves out almost a million dollars on the table and throws a deal to Voight about taking half of it and letting him go. That wasn't going to happen. Voight gets him to put the cuffs on and he's off to jail.

Meantime, there's been some shocking moments that I've left out. One of them was that Al keeps getting phone calls and messages from a old friend that turned out to be an ex-lover when he was married. But he gets a phone call from a girl in jail, apparently her mother is the one he worked with and turns out that she is Al's daughter.

The other came near the final scene when Voight looking for Erin. She's at her mother's bar drinking a beer. Voight talks to her and tries to convince her to come with him. She's been thinking that she can't do the job anymore, that people that she has cared about have gotten hurt.

Even Bunny got on it too. Erin can't do the job no more. Voight tries to take her out and than demands that as her boss to get back to work but what she did was that she handed in her badge. And oh my god season three will be something...


I felt more compelling towards Erin in this episode. She's in a bad state of mind right now. The death of Nadia has really taken a toll on her and the meaning of her job. I think I speak with all fans of this show that we all care for her.

Also I have to mention that there might be a CPD Wedding with Ruzek purposing to Burgess. Well, at least something happy has come out of this episode, right?

I enjoyed this episode a lot. So much emotion with Linsey's story line and some intense scenes with Voight having a nice heated chat with one of the drug kings.

All in all, I give this season finale a 9/10. And as for overall this season, I give this season 9/10 as well because this season was full of character development and exciting stories that just takes my breathe away and blows my mind.
