Trick or Treat: Chicago Med "Lesser of Two Evils"

When a child's life is in the balance, a secret will be revealed—this and many more, plus a party for Natalie and Will in this recap of Chicago Med.

When Ethan and April care for a child whose kidneys aren't working, it corresponds to Wilson's Disease.  She needs a transplant, but her parents aren't her biological parent. When Dr. Charles comes in to help, he feels there's something more than what meets the eye. The truth comes out when the mother tells Charles and Ethan that they didn't fully adopt her—but saved her when she was alone while her birth mother got high. The birth mother and smothered daughter don't want to see her. But even if that happened, she wanted to thank those who took her in.

Conner and Lanik butted heads this week, and I was looking for some fist-to-face moment, but I know Conner is better. When seeing Terry bring Lanik coffee and other things, Conner is amazed at how much scutwork Terry does. But when a trauma comes in, Lanik pressures Terry to put a central line in, but he fails nervously. Conner gives some advice to Terry while he tells him that maybe being a doctor was a bad choice. The wrong patient needs to lose his good chance to save the leg. Lanik doesn't think keeping the guy is essential because Conner thinks he's afraid that they 'lose him.

While getting ready for a Bachelor and Bachelorette party, Natalie and Will treat a woman who's shown bruises on her face down to her hips.  Thinking that it's her husband, Natalie gets the truth out of the patient. But soon, her patient had a blood clot, and any stress would cause the clot to burst. But her husband won't listen and brings her to leave. That is until that clot burst, and they pronounced her dead. Her husband goes pretty quickly while Natalie and Will get their patient help after she faked her death. It was such a tremendous Halloween-themed moment.

At the party, Will talks with Jay about Ray again and tells him he must bring him in for his heart condition. But Jay tells him not to because things won't be good. But it doesn't look like Will will leave it alone.

"Lesser Of Two Evils" was a very excellent ring episode.  The writing was so good. Ethan's story was so good,d and it could be an honest bitee about the difference between kidnapping and saving a child's life.  I was stunned, but I understood what they did was for the best of the child; I think that maybe the biological mother would want to share custody with them. There were many momomentsoo from Conner and Lanik butting heads to Conner and Ava having some good moments and Will and Natalie's party too. Will will do what he thinks is best as a doctor to treat his patients. Sorry, Jay.

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.
