When the Intelligence Unit tries to do everything it can to build a case against the administrator of a drug ring, things get dicey for Rojas as one of the sellers happens to be a longtime friend when Rojas sees footage of her friend selling. Soon, after deleting the footage, Rojas tells Upton about it after learning that the evidence would still be used.
But Voight learns quickly and tells Rojas that when the drug deal goes down, her friend will be arrested, too. After capturing him, Rojas tries to get him to help but won't. The ASA tells Voight and Upton they don't have a strong case. That leads to Upton getting Rojas's friend to help with the boss' car. That led to Upton witnessing the drug ring leader arrested for having the position of drugs in the back of the car. She meets Voight and talks about how the ASA has enough to take the guy away and give Roja's friend a deal.
But it doesn't end there as Voight tells Upton that what she did was wrong and that she has been crossing many lines that she can't keep straight. Of course, Upton tells him she's OK, so Voight tells her that the New York FBI task force needs help with a case for a couple of weeks, and he decides to send her. While she didn't like it, things got heated after she told him that she did what he would have done, and that's not what he wanted her to do. Soon, Hailey Upton is heading to New York City.
"Lines" was such a better episode than the previous one. I thought this would be about Rojas's episode, but twist and make it an Upton episode. The scenes of Voight talking to Rojas were excellent and meaningful to the character. Also, that scene at the end of Voight and Upton was perfect; it left me in shock. And yes, Upton will be on the CBS series FBI, which is part of the Dick Wolf universe. That should be good! Overall, I give this episode an 8,5/10.
You can catch the season finale of FBI tonight at 9/8c on CBS with special guest Tracy Spiridakos as Detective Hailey Upton. And Chicago PD returns Wednesday, April 8th at 10/9c on NBC.
