Jay's Call: Chicago PD "Equal Justice"

 Has Jay taken a play from Voight's playbook? Here's a recap of this week's Chicago PD.

As the Intelligence Unit does a stakeout, their cover gets blown when they spot someone who's taken a car full of heroin. They quickly learn that the man, Lateral Wade, is not only working for the gang but also trying to find his son's killer, who he believes is the gang leader. 

Jay and the team try to work with the father, trying to get in with the gang, but they fail after the father sees the gang leader's car. After that deal has failed, Jay learns that the father's son might not have been killed over drugs but of a relationship with a young woman, who happens to be in a relationship with one of the gang members. 

Just as the Intelligence Unit made an arrest, gunshots were heard, and they found their suspect dead. Jay spots the runaway car and learns that it's the father. As Jay talks with Voight about the situation, Jay decides to arrest the father, yet tells him to lawyer up and keep quiet. 

"Equal Justice" was an excellent episode. Lawrece Gilliard, Jr. was fantastic as Lateral Wade, the father who seeks explanations for the death of his son. Even Jesse Lee Soffer was good, and the bond that the two characters had during this episode was delightful. 

It did leave Halstead with a situation that you would think he would just arrest. Still, during that scene, when talking to him about fathers and sons, he had a whole different feeling that not only had him capture Wade but advised him to lawyer up and keep quiet. 

Was it a play from Voight's playbook? We have seen it all the time. Had Jay become more like Voight? That's tough to say.

Overall, I give this episode an 8.5/10.

Understand This: Chicago Fire "Blow This Up Somehow"

 

Another exciting week on Chicago Fire. Here's a recap!

During a call to a crash at a gas station, Casey learns that Gallo has overstepped his order but instead saved a woman who was unconscious and surrounded by gasoline. Casey disciplines Gallo for a couple of days, but after a few days, he and Gallo talk about the situation and come to an understanding. 

Meanwhile, it looks like Casey's new love life looks to be taking off, but as she comes to visit him at 51, she notices the way that he looks at Brett, who is on a call. Soon, the two broke things off until Casey could figure out his feelings about Brett again.

Also, Brett and Mackey deal with discipline from the paramedic board as they are questioning why, after a max of fentanyl on a patient who sawed his leg off, wasn't working. They figured that the couple had ripped them off after a call. They finally busted them as someone made a 911 call using the same emergency. 

Kidd is stressing out not only about work and the Lieutenant exam but also over Severide. She talks with Boden about maybe taking a year off for the exam. Still, when Severide learns about what's going on, he talks with her about not quitting and soon tells her the truth about what's been going on; while she understands, she doesn't care as she's her person and doesn't back down and would never let Severide go. 

"Blow This Up Somehow" was an excellent episode and probably one of my favorite rewatchable episodes for the season. There was so much fun in this episode, not only with Cruz-Herrmann-Mouch and Mouch's tattoo, as that was too funny, but also the Severide and Casey moment in the loft talking about their situation with Stella and Sylvie. 

I'll admit I'm so glad that Severide finally talked with Stella, not only to encourage her but also to explain why he's been so distant with her. Even though I thought that it would take a turn for the worst, I was happy to see it end the way it did.

The Gallo and Casey thing was good, and it's good to see Gallo stand his ground and learn a bit from Casey's experience. And while agreeing to what Gallo had to do then, Casey was fitting that he should have radio quickly. 

Overall, I give this episode a 9/10. 

What did you think of this week's episode? With Stella and Kelly back together, is the next thing a ring? How long will it take for Casey and Brett to embarrass their feelings again? How long will it take for Cruz to tell everyone about the baby? Leave a comment!

Facing the Situation: Chicago Med "Don't Want to Face This Now"

 

Talk about facing the situation this week on Chicago Med.

This Is Us "A Long Road Home"/""Birth Mother"

 

"A Long Road Home" 

While Kate and Toby visit her ex-boyfriend, we revisit the 18-year-old Kate when she's planning to get an abortion. During the mandatory waiting period, she sees Marc, but after hearing him apologize, he's still the same person and decides to leave and have the abortion. Meanwhile, in the present, Kate visits Marc, who's not doing too well, and tells him that he hurt her, but she's happy now with what she's got with her family and leaves, driving off with Toby. 

Randall and Beth try to figure out whether or not a stranger (Hai) knows his biological mother, as said in a letter. After figuring things out and talking to Kevin, Randall, and Beth called Hai and chatted and even planned a visit to meet with him.

Kevin learned that his film will be relocated shortly, close to Madison's due date. Kevin revisited when Randall called to tell him he should leave Sophie after meeting a talent agent. Kevin calls Randall, and while they talk, they make their peace. 

This was a great episode from beginning to end, with great performances from Chrissy Metz and Hannah Zeile. That moment when Metz's Kate meets with Marc for the first time in years and returns the disease" that he left with her (the pain). That was a powerful and applause-worthy performance. The Kevin and Randall scene when they made their peace was a bit short, but after watching it for the second time, I loved it, and it had me grabbing the tissues. 

Overall, I give this episode an 8.5/10.

"Birth Mother"

Beth and Randall travel to Louisiana, where they meet Hai and listen to the story of Randall's birth mother. The first 

I love this episode! This episode will probably be my favorite of the season so far. This episode was well-written, with well-developed characters, and the performances were from Sterling K. Brown, Jennifer C. Holmes, and Angela Gibbs. 

This episode is worthy of an Emmy nomination for writing and performance. If you haven't watched this episode, please do so.

Quick Thoughts

I can't wait for this week's episodes of One Chicago. Looks like Fire and Med will be once again high drama. It seems that Dr, Charles might be learning soon about his daughter's pregnancy. Will and Ethan, let's see who wins this battle. I'm going with Will. 

While on Fire, Severide and Kidd's relationship looks to be not going the way we had hoped. Come on Kelly, tell her already! Looks like Gallo might have gone heroic again, but does going against Casey's order was the right thing or not? And looks like we get a little Brett and Casey scene this week (oh boy!). 

PD looks to be another good one with the team teaming up with a victim's father, who seeks revenge. I really don't have to worry about this one because PD has really stepped up the stories when it comes to crime-solving mysteries. I just wonder what we'll be getting without characters, maybe Halstead and Ruzek talking about their relationship with one another. That would be interesting.

Scary Reunions: Single Parents "Welcome to Hell, Sickos"/"Xander and Camille"

"Welcome to Hell, Sickos" 

Happy Halloween!

"Welcome to Hell, Sickos" was a hilarious Halloween episode. As Will tries to be there for Sophie's Halloween party at school, he gets distracted by his girlfriend's birthday party and her family at one of those locked room games. As Doug takes the kids to their party at school, he forgets to decorate for the party but gets surprised when the room is all decorated ten times scarier.  But Doug learns that his twin girls decorated the place for him.

Meanwhile, Angie and Poppy have a night after their kids tell them they don't need them to trick or treat. They drink Doug's wine and soon invite teenagers to the place to have a party to see if they could be fantastic. But after a fun time, they learn that those kids have stolen all of Doug's liquor and gotten them back just in time for Doug and others to get around.

I immensely enjoyed this episode, but it's par with last season's Halloween episode. It had some perfect moments of humor and heart, but overall, I give this episode a 7.5/10.

"Xander and Camille" 

As Angie and Poppy have a night out, Angie spots a man and soon gets a one-night stand. But Angie learns that the man she slept with is Doug's son. Soon, Poppy gets them together for a reunion, and the two handle their hard feelings to one another while playing golf.

Meanwhile, Will teaches Miggy how to discipline after taking their devices away from them after stealing Miggy's credit card for things. But soon, the kids pull a fast one, and both Will and Miggy discuss with the kids their demands. But as they get their phones and the kids get their devices, Will and Miggy pull a fast one with the Wi-Fi shutoff.

"Xander and Camille" might be one of my favorite episodes of the season. I thought the shocking news of Doug having a son was so good and funny. But I couldn't get enough of Will and Miggy in this episode, along with the kids. It was just too amusing and with memorable moments. Overall, I give this episode an 8.5/10.

You can catch Single Parents Wednesdays at 9:30/8:30 on ABC.

Close to the Suspect: Chicago PD "My Brother's Keeper" /'False Positive"

"My Brother's Keeper" 

When a man is murdered, the Intelligence Unit investigates that'll track back to the family member of the victim. The father of the suspect would take the fall knowing that his son was killed in for revenge on the real murderer who killed his uncle.

Meanwhile, Ruzek gets a patrolman upset because he doesn't like the way he is abusing his recruit. It led to an investigation, but mainly during their investigation, the Intelligence team didn't get the backup they needed. To settle the score, the officer asks to fight Ruzek for the respect he wants.

"My Brother's Keeper" was a solid story after the big crossover event. IT felt like an easy investigation for the Intelligence, but the story for me focused on the Ruzek vs Patrolman. Overall, I give this episode an 8/10.

"False Positive" 

When two young boys are found murdered, the Intelligence unit investigates the killing as it leads to guns, money, and drugs. During the investigation, the Unit uses a new device that's new to the police that takes a photo or video and identifies it. After getting a suspect, it turns out that the device doesn't work well with people of dark color, and their only suspect ended up attacked and dead.

Voight believes it was someone from the inside who had to have done it, and when looking at the gang members, he found one person who happens to be second in command. After talking with the gang boss, their suspect gets his butt kicked and ends up dead. Halstead, on the other hand, didn't take it so well, knowing that he put an innocent man to death and that Voight had the real suspect get killed.

"False Positive" was another excellent episode. I thought the performance between Jesse Lee Soffer and Jason Beghe worked so well in this episode. The writing was good. All in all, I give this episode an 8.5/10.

You can catch Chicago PD on Wednesdays at 10/9c on NBC.

A Path to Growing: Fresh Off The Boat "Chestnut Gardens"/"Practicum?!"

"Chestnut Gardens" 

The Chestnut is back! Matthew Chestnut returns and it makes Jessica, Eddie, and Trent all suspicious on his return. Jessica sees that Chestnut has taken Louis away from his passion idea of starting a garden and sets up a plan with Eddie and Trent to get Chestnut out of Cattlemen. After Louis learned what had happened and tells Jessica he was disappointed in her; she learned that Louis did start that garden but handed it off to Jenny. Jessica tells Louis that she's happy and that his career move is a business consultant.

Meanwhile, Honey asked Emery and Evan to babysit Marvin while he's on his boat. Emery thinks that Marvin is just old school when it comes to being disrespectful to women. But after teaching Marvin the ropes on how to be a gentleman in the 90s but it turns out the trash-talking comes from Honey herself. But it does give Emery asking about his perspective on women but Evan gives a pep talk that helped him.

"Chestnut Gardens" was a good episode. Bring back Matthew Chestnut and having a conflict wit Jessica, Eddie and Trent with Louis was very good and had very good character development for both Louis and Jessica. At first, I thought the Evan/Emery/Marvin story was going to be a snooze but the ending had a very surprising and heartfelt moment. Overall, I give this episode an 8/10.

"Practicum?!" 

When Evan starts wearing a necklace, Jessica starts to worry about him and investigates by using her shadow teacher at Evan's school. There she meets Evan's new friend Geoff and starts embarrassing Evan with remarks about things including his boom booms with applesauce. Evan tries to get his mother out of his school and when Jessica sees how he's been acting, she turns to Emery and learns that Evan just needs his space as he's growing. As she confronts Evan at Geoff's party, they both apologized.

Allen Iverson is coming to Orlando and Eddie wants a signed jersey from him, but Jessica and Louis won't let him skip school. That is until Louis learns that Eddie is writing a paper on his hero for a scholarship that happens to be about Iverson. A jealous Louis picks up Eddie from school to take him to see Iverson but tries too hard when he fakes a car problem that turned into an actual car problem. Soon Eddie learns the truth and forgives Louis, who finally took him to get that jersey signed and even get banned from all NBA games.

"Practicum?!" was a very good episode from start to finish. While I've been loving the dynamic between Eddie and Jessica; the character and relationship growth between Jessica and Evan through the last couple of seasons has been amazing;y well-written. The Eddie and Louis story was just hilarious at times and even the pop culture references in this episode couldn't be denied on how funny it still was. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.


You can catch Fresh Off The Boat Fridays at 8;30/7:30c on ABC.
