When a 15-year-old cold case reopens, can Voight and ASA Chapman find the killer before another is taken? Here's a recap!
After having a rough morning, Voight and ASA Champman come on a call about an abducted and hurt woman that officers have found. While this might be new to some, this seems to be an old case Voight had worked on 15 years ago, and brings up all the case files from the abductions for the team to go through and even interview the survivor.
They caught a break in the case when the victim's phone was pinged, and they tracked down the victim until they realized that another woman had been abducted. They spotted the suspect on camera and tracked down the vehicle to where Atwater and Torres got their behinds beaten until Voight took control. Voight interviewed the suspect, but while he wasn't going to give anything up, he did mention a critical clue: he wasn't working alone on this and tried to find his boss.
Voight, Champman, and the team tracked down the last place the suspect had visited, but that place was clean. They even tried to get a warrant, but that didn't go through because there was no physical evidence. But Champman comes up with a warrant, and soon Voight not only finds the missing victim but also kills the suspect who was trying to kill her.
Later, Champman and Voight talked about how the warrant she gave him was falsified, but she didn't care because she had feelings for him.
"The After" was such an awesome episode! It gave us another glimpse into the character development of both Voight and Chapman. While we're aware of his wife's passing, it was surprising to learn that this case was the very first one he took on. Over the last couple of seasons, we've watched Chapman grow closer to Voight, even attempting to discuss his passionate approach to solving cases at the start of the season. I find it refreshing to see someone having feelings for Voight; it's a perspective we don't often encounter in the 12 seasons of the show, and I would absolutely love it if they handled that storyline well for Voight!
Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.
