Father and Daughter: Chicago PD "Never Forget I Love You"



This was all Lindsay and Voight episode all over and it didn't disappoint at all in this fall finale.

Erin and Voight get a call of a head floating in the Chicago river. They search and find the rest of the body, not a bad way to spent a little father-daughter time right? During the search, they talk about the past stuff that they've gone through.

They identified the victim and soon find where she was working, at a strip joint. They only get one word out of the employees and soon find some illegal cards in her locker.

But it was when Voight goes far and beyond to talk to a mob boss that he knows personally and asked him for help to shed some light in this case. Well, the guy's business partner helps and gives a name, they search the suspect's place. And it turned out to be one of the funniest scenes after Halstead and Ruzek chased him that both the suspect and Ruzek goes falls to the ground.

Not long that the suspect's lawyer comes in and tells Voight and Halstead that his client will give his confession. Erin wasn't buying it at all and as this case goes on, questions Voight's mind. Well,  he is meeting with mobsters and trying to solve the case without giving them issues. Who could blame her?

But it turned out that the suspect turned out to be the lawyer, who had a lot of meeting with the victim and taking a lot of money from his mob boss. But as Erin and Halstead interviewed him, Voight comes in and tells them that he has two choices: one confess and go to protective custody or two walk out that door. He walked out that door and as Erin tells him that she'll get him, he gets a ride from his boss, so you kind of know what that means.

Later as Erin is having a drink at Molly's, Voight comes in and tells her that she might not like what he does but he does give the benefit of the doubt. He also explained to her why someone went to Joliet prison because he gave him a choice and he took it. And the guy at the time was bad too and Erin didn't know it. Voight still loves Erin and still treats her like his own daughter.

I found this episode really good and of course the cliffhanger at the end when Roman and Burgess has been dealing with an ex-husband beating his wife after the death of their son, that Roman has been helping with. Roman chases him and shoots him, but he turns out dead and had no gun. Burgess calls Voight and tells him there's a situation. And that's where we are left with until January.

It was good and it should a lot more growth and understanding of what Erin and Voight stand. And the cliffhanger might not stand out as the last previous episode that night on SVU.
 
Overall,  I give this episode a 8/10.

You can catch Chicago PD back in the new year Wednesday nights at 10/9c on NBC.
