Changes and Reflections: Chicago Med "When Your Heart Rules Your Head"/ Chicago Fire "My Lucky Day"

"When Your Heart Rules Your Head" 

When a depressed and suicidal patient comes into Med after trying to end his wife's suffering from her illness, Dr. Choi believes that the right thing to do is turn the patient into PD. While Noah, who disagrees, does the unthinkable as he helps the patient end his life. But in this case, while Noah wasn't turned into PD for his actions, Choi decides to let him go. 

Meanwhile, Halstead is put in a situation with April, who believes their patient is the perfect fit for his trial but barely makes the mark. That is until Halstead gives the patient fluids and decides he's fit for his practice. While Dr. Charles continues to fight for custody for his daughter to not move to Arizona, Anna visits with Natalie and, while asking for birth control instead, learns that she's pregnant. 

"When Your Heart Rules Your Head" was such an enjoyable episode! I felt the Noah storyline would come up, but it didn’t disappoint me. It delivered some fantastic moments with Ethan and April, though I think it's time for Noah to move on from Med. I really appreciate what Noah did; his intentions were genuinely good. 

I found the Halstead-April and Natalie-Anna storylines even more engaging! The lessons we've learned from Anna seem to hold a lot of potential, and I’m curious to see how that will unfold in the next episode, especially since she kept her pregnancy a secret from Dr. Charles at the end. Halstead, striving for perfection in his trial (they need to solidify that date), did something remarkable by incorporating a patient into his practice. 

Overall, I give this episode an 8.5/10.

"My Lucky Day"

Herrmann and Cruz ride up the elevator on a fire call at a high-rise building that would soon get trapped. With the loss of communication with the team, Cruz and Herrmann try to find a way to get out while the elevator cable wires are snapping off. They heard the team in danger and Mouch trapped. Trying to keep calm, Herrmann and Cruz talked and told their stories outside the firehouse, including about bringing children into the world. 

"My Lucky Day" is one of my top five favorite bottle episodes of Chicago Fire! Just a friendly reminder: Rule #1 of riding an elevator never mentions it's your lucky day, especially after Herrmann's experience! All jokes aside, this week's spotlight show tugged at my heartstrings. The episode had such an incredible mix of intensity, warmth, and the genuine fears faced by the team, making it a truly memorable watch!

Who isn't satisfied with Cruz's news (spoiler alert: Cruz and Chole are expecting their first child). 

Overall, I give this episode a 9.5/10.
