This week's fall finale of Chicago Med not only left us with intense drama but also a shocking final moment that would leave us stunned. Here's a recap!

On his wedding day, as Will gets ready and gets fitted for his tux, he gets stopped by Ray's son asking to check up on him. There, he sees that Ray is not okay and tells him he must go to the hospital. But that was until another of Ray's sons found the device that Will had left, and healthy things intensified. As Will is held captive, Ray collapses, and Will goes from looking like James Bond to MacGyever in 20 minutes as he performs brain surgery to stop the leak in Ray's brain. The operation was successful, and later taken to the hospital. Will stayed with a gun to his head. More later.

Meanwhile, at Med, Ethan and April treat a pregnant woman about to give birth, but the problem comes when the baby wants to be born butt first. Ethan called for an emergency c-section, but the baby was delivered naturally, and it turned out that the baby would not live. The parents weren't pleased with the outcome and decided to leave the baby before it died. April decides to stay with the child while Ethan and Viki attend the wedding.

Charles deals with a strange case when a husband is brought in after he is attacked by his wife, who thinks that he isn't her husband. Charles talks with the wife, and from his understanding, she's got a tumor in the brain and takes scientific drugs to help it stop growing, but the side effects are what's causing her to attack her husband. Charles gives her another drug, which soon causes even more of a problem. But before taking her off of that, she asked for surgery to take out the tumor. They get stopped from doing it by her husband, who believes that she doesn't want it.

Conner and Ava perform surgery on a mystery man who is an informant for the FBI and Jay. Jay comes into the hospital and asks Conner for help because that guy may know where Will is being held. Conner decides to stop the surgery and move him up to the surgical floor and asks him questions, but soon, he goes into cardiac arrest and dies. But did he give the location of where Will could be?

While in panic mode, Natalie is worried about where Will could be and thinks that he may be having second thoughts. After calling and calling him, she finally gets word from Maggie, who got a call from Jay that he's outside the church. She rushes out there to see Will covered in blood from the shot that Jay took to save his life, but he had to leave fast to be placed in the witness protection from Ray and his gang. He hugs her and tells her he loves her as he leaves her.

"Death Do Us Part" was an intense, high-driven fall finale episode. There was everything that you would want, from a mystery illness to an extreme and emotional story of the baby born only to die with no parents except April being there. I would hope that moment would bring April and Ethan close together. But the man-driven moment was Natalie and Will and the shocking moment that there won't be a wedding and that Will is gone. Also, does anyone think that Goodwin and Charles should hook up? Anyway, the writing and performance from this episode were excellent and strong. I can't wait for the next episode in the new year. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

You can catch Chicago Med when they return on Wednesday, Jan. 9th, at 8/7c on NBC.
