The Blacklist "The Architect"

When the job calls on high tech hacking, leave it up to Aram to handle it.

"The Architect" isn't my favorite but yet it could have been a bit better. As Red tries to figure out who ordered to take his business down while the FBI wants to do something more than just helping Red's business.

The story lot with Red was good as he tries to freeze Isabella Stone in a freezer. He demands answers and she gave him those answers, mostly who she was married too and how she misses him, along with a mysterious band card and note of what to do. As soon as Red gave her back to the FBI, he saw the owner of the bank to look into the bank card. But when he gets word back from his banker, he tells him that the card belongs to Red. Someone's backstabbing Red, my best guest would be one person: Kaplan. Just a a guess.

Meantime, one of the highlights of the episode was to watch Red and Cooper get into it and this time Cooper is pissed off because of Red taking Stone away from them to get his answers. So Cooper demands a big name, a big one from his list like he wants someone so juicy and challenging, so the Architect comes into play.

Liz and the team go on a scavenger hunt and solving puzzles to get to an underground place called Black Mass. After solving the puzzle the one person who knows computer hacking has to go undercover once again and that would be Aram. Aram gets picked up and taken to what looks like a hacking party until the games began on who would be the fastest to hack into the system. Oh and a familiar face is there too...Elise.

As soon as the games begin, Aram wins with the fastest time but then guns go off and The Architect appears and asking for the winner. Aram and Elise hide for a moment and soon The Architect takes Aram and gets him to hack the highly secured prison in West Virginia. While Aram was working, he puts a USB in the laptop and that let know where he was located.

The Architect wanted to get one of the prisoners who was on death row get out. There doesn't seem to be any real reason that he's doing this, which got me lost for one. But the plan fell through and The Architect tries to drive away but Aram uses his Mark-5 missile on him within seconds.

As I said, this episode wasn't my favorite as it didn't have enough story development with mostly the blacklister. Brent Spiner looked amazing as The Architect, looked fearful at times but I just didn't think that his story plot didn't seem to be good. I thought Aram was pretty good and him meeting Elise during this mission was quite fun even between Elise and Samar. And Tom's story was better than the blacklister. There were some memorable moments Elise and Aram having a moment in the storage room. Also both times, Red and Cooper on the phone and in person, I just love watching Lennox and Spader have a scene together if it's bad or good. Overall, I give this episode a 7/10.

You can catch the winter finale of The Blacklist Thursday at an earlier time: 9/8c on NBC that will be followed with the series premiere of The Blacklist Redemption at 10/9c on NBC.

Timeless "The Lost Generation"/"Pubic Enemy No.1"

"The Lost Generation"

"The Lost Generation" is another amazing episode and story builder as we reach the last couple of episodes of the season. 

With Wyatt arrested and taken to a secret undercover blacksite, Lucy and Rufus still has to deal with Flynn as he travels back to Paris 1927 the day that Charles Lindbergh completed his trans-Atlantic flight, in this case almost did.  

During this episode, Lucy gets a little understanding of what her dad tells her about Rittenhouse, that it's not only a legacy, it's in her blood. She threatens to take down it but he doesn't believe that she would, hell he even said that he said and did at the time he learned about Rittenhouse. 

Just before the mission, Rufus learns about Lucy's dad, gets a bit upset, but they move on to the next mission along with a new solider ( I rather call it a new companion), Bam Bam (as Wyatt calls him). They go back sees that Flynn has been around and tat Lindbergh had crashed his plane. As they got word they bump into another famous face, Ernest Hemingway at the time a journalist and author of one book. I don't know about you, but I would probably enjoy having Hemingway as a life coach after this episode. 

Another famous face was Josephine Baker, back then she was the Beyonce at that time which was the best description. They asked for her help in finding Lindbergh and soon later Bam Bam spotted Emma with Flynn's hitch-man along. Soon they followed them outside where then gunfire was exchange, hitting Bam Bam and dying. 

Lucy, Rufus and Hemingway search for Lindbergh, they come to an abandoned house, as Hemingway asked for help (he was about to punk), Lucy looks around by herself and gets caught and taken to Flynn. There Flynn and Lucy talk: about Rittenhouse, her father and of course, Lindbergh. Lindbergh is one of Rittenhouse and Flynn wants some answers and Lucy offered a deal if she can get him to talk about them in exchange for his safety. Flynn agrees and hears the name Cheviot, as one of the members and soon went to meet him to have a chat about Rittenhouse. 

Rufus and Hemingway had some nice scene together one of them Hemingway trying to spark up Rufus that got him motivated and found both Lucy and Lindbergh. But on their way out Emma was there and after Rufus gave her the option to either come along or let them through and not get shot; she let them through.    

Meanwhile, while all of this was happening, Agent Christopher gets word that she is no long in command that the NSA has taken over. She goes to Wyatt about it and discuss why there are over a dozen of people just like that to come in and take over. It all made sense when it all connects to Rittenhouse. Christopher offers him a deal but Wyatt denies it but after she left, she leaves him with a paperclip to escape, which he did and soon meet with her, Lucy and Rufus back at their secret location (Warehouse).

  

Just before the episode ended, Lucy talks with her mom about meeting her dad. She tells Lucy that she wouldn't have anything different knowing what a fine woman she has turned out, but also gives her a gift something to express her feelings when she's upset about something: which happens to be the journal that Flynn has been holding and getting his information. 

I enjoyed this episode so much. The writing was strong and the cast from Spencer, Barrett and even Brandon Barash as Hemingway was amazing and so much fun to watch. Even Wersching was good and she only had a couple of scenes in the episode. As I said before I loved that scene with Rufus and Hemingway talk about fighting the good fight. It really made me want to do something bold that I never done before. Overall, I give this episode a 8.5/10.

"Public Enemy No. 1"

The team is reunited and it just feels so so good (even though it was only about an episode since Wyatt left). 

"Public Enemy No. 1" not only brings the team back together again, but gives us one hell of a cliffhanger that'll dive right into the season finale, that I'm sure we're all looking forward to. 

With no success on capturing Flynn, Agent Neville orders Rufus and Lucy to go back to 1963 and take out Flynn's mother and this time they have no choice otherwise. So as they take off with another solider (terminator look-alike), they make and took out or knock out their solider companion, headed back to present day to meet with Wyatt and Christopher. There we learn that Rufus placed a temporary virus to the computer's mainframe back at the post so Mason and Rittenhouse couldn't find them. 

Now, with a stolen time machine and not working with Rittenhouse, Wyatt suggested that they should go and save Lucy's sister. But as soon as they get ready to do so, Rufus gets word that Flynn jumped to 1931. Lucy doesn't want to go after Flynn but Wyatt tells her that they should take one problem at a time, stop Flynn from whatever he's doing and then go save her sister. 

There Flynn meets with Al Capone and informs him about he would be put in jail on tax evasion. After the charges being dropped by the court, Capone grants Flynn with a favor: to meet with the mayor and ask about the Rittenhouse meeting. 

After seeing Capone gone with Flynn, Lucy and gang heads to the one person that can stop Capone, Eliot Ness, who isn't happy. They talk at his place about Flynn and Capone and just before they plan to do something, Capone had a guy come and shoot the place up, killing Ness. So the one person now that Lucy and the gang can go to is the one person that knows Capone...his brother. 

Lucy, Wyatt and Rufus meets with Richard Hart and asked him for help to take down his brother. After some convincing, they headed over there and it was a family reunion until it turned into an argument of betrayal after Hart tells him he's taken him in. Guns go up in the air three get shot, Capone, his hitch man and Rufus. 

Lucy and Wyatt tend to Rufus, who was bleeding pretty badly. They get him up and drive back to the time machine. They get Rufus in his seat and set everything up but by the the time everything was a go, Rufus looses consciousness and we leave it there. 

Other things: With Rufus' plan of diversion, Mason takes things to his own hands and place Jiya in holding after she had made contact with Rufus on a burner phone. As Mason tries to get things back up and spotted where Rufus is at, Jiya builds her own computer and takes out the system again. IT's the first time I've enjoyed watching Jiya this season. Also, Flynn gets word from Chicago Mayor William Hale Thompson about the next Rittenhouse meeting would be in 1954, for which that's where he'll be in the season finale. 

This was just another amazing episode that had fun moments like Wyatt telling Rufus and Lucy to leave Ness' dead body behind because they didn't have no IDs and he's wearing button-fly jeans from the GAP. Trilling when Jiya and Mason butted heads, that gave me a coupe of chills. The writing was amazing once again and so was the acting from Spencer, Lanter, Barrett and even Goran Visnjic, who had an amazing first open scene at a church and talking to the priest about life and the possibilities to change it if it all matters in the end. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

You can catch the season finale of Timeless tonight at 10/9c on NBC.

Chicago PD "I Remember Her Now"/"Seven Indictments"

"I Remember Her Now" 

Talk about giving Halstead a lot of time this week, that includes the one on Chicago Fire.

"I Remember Her Now" is one hell of a undercover mystery episode, when you send in one member of the Intelligence Unit to go into a female detention center after a 15 year old girl was found murdered in an abandoned building. And if there's one person that can go in there and figure it out, it's Jay Halstead.

Halstead goes undercover as a new member of the guards at the detention center, there he tries to figure out how everything works and when a girl goes crazy and is taken to a safe room. When the doctor leaves for a minute or two, the girl goes at it with Halstead, as in kissing him, wanting to do stuff in return for something she wants. But Halstead hold that off, until the next day and asked her about the situation for which she'll do anything for pleasure in exchange for a ticket to California.

As Halstead reports to Voight and Al and he doesn't know if he could do it any longer, but in order to get everything in an order he'll have to get her to talk if possible and that's what he did: gave her a ticket and asked her about the girl that died. She knew who it was, told him and showed him where she was died before moving her. Following that Voight and the gang came in and sweep the place and took the girl that was also given Halstead some issues.

Back at the station, Halstead and Voight talked to the witness and took her story and talked to the suspect. The suspect denied it and told a different story for which seemed to be true at first but Halstead was on the defense for the witness that she didn't do it. It was Halstead against the rest of the squad but when he realized something back when he saw the suspect came out of the room many times when there was nothing going on, him and Erin rushed over there and took everything in the room down like it was a couple's remodeling the place or so. It was there that Halstead found the stash of cash and phones and nailed the suspect and his witness gets to go free.

Also during this episode, Trudy gets word that the dying girl was someone she worked with and didn't realized it. She tries to find her parents and foster parents because she feels terrible about it. With no luck, she signed as the victim's co-parent and full filled her wish was to be placed somewhere nice where there isn't a lot of nose but beautiful. But Trudy and Hank walked to near the pier.

I loved this episode as it not only played with my mind of figuring it out but also messed with my guy Halstead, for which I was glad because of his actions during Severide's case in the crossover episode. I loved Jesse Lee Soffer's performance, it wasn't too big and it wasn't too small but it was memorable. Loved the writing as well. Overall, I give this episode a 8/10.

"Seven Indictments"

When the Intelligence Unit is called for a house explosion, there's only one problem: no witnesses of who was there at the time.

"Seven Indictments" was a fine episode that really had that classic twist you would want on this show. When you think you know it bam! here's something else.

This week's case would be one to remember only for it;s twist that didn't come til the end. After going through suspects, everything relayed on a man and his dog, who happens to come into Trudy's life during the episode, by the way which was memorable too.

But also in this episode, word got around to Erin and Halstead that Rixton's old unit is indicted but not him. Everyone talks around the guy and even Jay asked Voight about it, for which Voight replied that it was not on their business but also told the whole team if they make one more comment that he'll transfer someone out fast.

But after the case was solved, Halstead, being the bigger man, took the high road and apologized to Rixton for what was something that he shouldn't have talked about, along with the other team. Rixton tells what the indictments were for and Voight told the whole story of how his unit were out to take someone down, not being on the clock and also Rixton wasn't even there at the time.

But I think the moment we all loved was that Adam is back! Ruzek comes walking to Burgess after his undercover mission was done and tells her that he was a bit nervous working with his ex-girlfriend, for which I think is back to being girlfriend after that welcome back kiss.

I enjoyed a lot of this episode. The twist and turns, Trudy and the officer with that guy and his dog, plus finally learning about Rixton that it seems that he'll be gone now I guess since Ruzek is back. The writing was good, the cast was really good. Overall, I give this episode a 8.5/10.

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

Love is in the Air: Grimm "Blind Love"

Love is sick, love is kind, and put it together in this week's episode of Grimm, and you have a memorable episode.

"Blind Love" stands out on its own as not just a montage of the six seasons this show has been on but just that it's one hour of can't stop laughing to OMG moments. This might have to be one of my favorite all-time episodes.

It's Monroe's birthday, and Rosealee plans a getaway trip with the gang to celebrate, but when they get there, someone who recognizes Nick seeks revenge for what he did to his daddy seven years ago (before Nick knew he was a Grimm).

Randy sets out to put a spell on Nick and others by putting it in their champagne, except for Rosealee. The next day, Cupid's magic strikes Monroe to fall in love with Eve, Nick with Rosealee, Adalind with Monroe, Wu with the waitress Holly (who I think should be together), and probably the best couple's match-up would have to go to Hank for loving Hank.

The best scenes came when Russell Hornsby goes at it with so much feeling, along with Marvin Gay playing in the background; it's hilarious.

As everyone's about to kill each other, Rosalee knows what is happening and finds Randy. The two talk and then have to chase til he grabs Holly as a hostage, but Wu, who is about to jump off a cliff for his love for Holly, sees her in trouble and wages and pushes Randy off the cliff, killing off the spell.

After going at it, the rest of the gang seemed to be back to normal and learned what had happened to each other. Later that night, the cake is lit up, and everyone sings Happy Birthday to Monroe. And after, the waitress brings out champagne to the house. Yeah, I think I'll stick with Diet Coke.

Also, Lt. Grossante kidnaps Diana from Renard's place because of their broken deal. At first, Renard is worried, but what the hell, it's Diana; he'll figure her out soon. And he did painfully, as those two had so much fun playing together, mainly Diana.

I loved this episode, as it's by far one of the best that can stand out. We saw just a little of that magic cloth business with a visit from a black skull in the bathroom mirror at Nick's loft (fome) that both Eve and Nick saw. And Renard has seen Diana's drawings but hasn't told him what they were.

Other than that, I thought the writing was excellent. The cast was good, but Hornsby stole this episode by far. I loved the flashback of when Nick and Monroe first met or Monroe and Rosalee's first love at first sight and their first kiss. Maybe, god, Monroe hasn't aged a bit in the six years. Yes, some Nadalind moments probably scored a lot of points. There are even some Eve/Juliette/Nick moments, too. It's an

 episode I would rewatch over and over again.  Overall, I give this episode a 9.5/10.

You can catch Grimm on Friday nights at 8/7c on NBC.

Chills with Emotion: Chicago Med "Cold Front"

Like a cold front being the cold air, a new Chicago Med brings another tremendous power.

"Cold Front" will be rememberedembeforom its emotional and powerful stories of our heroes facing the odds to help save their patients. If there's an episode that best describes what the show is about, it would be this very episode.

When a blizzard hits Chicago, it causes a massive pileup on the highway, and it looks like everything will be coming to Med. Choi and Jeff are there to treat as much as they can, alongside Casey, Severide, and Bowden being there. There, there was a family of four in a van, a man who was in an explosive truc,k and a pregnant woman who was found away from her car.

Let's start with the family: a family of four, one being a cousin, comes in as the father was taken to the OR fast, the mother being treated for cuts and wounds, but it was the boys that needed treatment—one with a hip fracture and the other with a leg fracture.

Both were in dire need of blood, but with a storm, none can't come in; the hospital was low on blood, but there were only a couple left. It left a heavy decision time for both doctors and even the mother/aunt as to who gets the blood. The one who'll survive would be the lady's nephew. Do you think that her husband agreed with it? No, he couldn't believe she let them pick her nephew over their son.

Let's move on to probably one of the most memorable stories in this episode was of Dr. Ethan Choi, who treated the burned victim from the crash. But when Dr. Latham saw him, he wanted Choi not to give him treatment because he burned over 95 percent of his body, but Choi tried to fulfill his patient's dying wish to tell his wife how much he loved her.

But after putting him on the vent, Rhodes tells Choi that they needed it because of the shortage due to the storm. Choi took his patient off the vent and helped him pump air til his wife got there, but Rhodes later wanted him to help put a tube in for another patient; at that point, the patient heard what was going on and grabbed his arm to tell him that it was okay to let go. I don't know about you, but I was literally in tears throughout Choi's story. But here's probably another one: as soon as Choi is done with that other patient, he overhears Halstead and Manning about the son's condition and that he needs- blood now. Choi is blood and gives as much as the kid needs.

Over moments: Rhodes and Latham had another good-to-WTF moment. Dr. Charles meets a loud patient who needs a refill, but when he leaves the hospital and "his brother" calls to tell Dr. Charles that he has died, it sets Charles down a moody path. But here's a surprise: the patient didn't die. He wanted to mistreat Charles, but he would pay the piper at the end: being held for 72 hours. And I think we might need to keep an eye on Wheller down the road; I'm a bit worried about him after the last couple of weeks.

"Cold Front" is another excellent and mighty one-hour television. The writing was so powerful, and the acting was on another level. I want to give Brian Tee the performance of the night, maybe even the performance of the week, as he was just outstanding. Also, Gehlfuss and Torrey gave their best performance, but mostly, we got to see a couple of #Manstead moments. Overall, I give this episode a 9.5/10.

You can catch Chicago Med when they return in the historical television Chicago Crossover event on Wednesday, March 1st at 8/7c on NBC, and new episodes return on March 2nd at 9/8c on NBC.

Who's Da Boss? Powerless "Sinking Day"

With profits at Wayne Security performing well, who's to take the credit: Emily or Van?

When Van ask Emily to look at a report about the company's profit, things were looking amazing. To Van: he's excited and takes credit as to Emily thinks that she's the one who brought profits up. The two don't see eye to eye but Emily thinks that what she does can profit better than Van's way.

When Ace Chemicals owner sees their product, to stop people from falling in and turning into evil clowns every three months, but it wasn't what the owner wanted and told them that he sent an email out with ideas of what he wanted. Emily didn't get the email but the owner explains that he sent it to Van about it and soon after Ace Chemicals leaves Wayne Security for Lexcrop.

As soon as word got out, Van's father shows up all upset and tells him he lost respect for him. Later on, Emily tries to talk to Van about the issues and use her father and his flower shop as an example. But she gives him the courage to make a call to other companies but stop short, but Emily found that Atlantis was in need of help so she called them for a meeting.

The meeting seemed to go well until they had to leave to get back to their city for Sinking Day, whatever the hell that mean. So Van tells them that he celebrates Sinking Day too and invites them along and tells them that Aquaman will be there too. Making promises that he might not seem to keep puts a stressful Emily at bay, but comes Sinking Day and everything look like the low budget of enchanted undersea dance from Back to the Future.

Emily greeted the members and things looked good. Van shows up and bring each of the three members a personal gift, fake alcohol, Brandon Frazier movie collection and two things of perfume. As the ball was rolling, Van's dad shows up and take it way from Van. Van goes to his office, playing his guitar with no pants just singing about he has daddy issues and needs a tissue. Emily gets him going once again and tells his dad that it's his business and client and to back off and so he did and the deal went smooth until I think Van went to grab the big tuna that was a mistake to have there. Later, Van and Emily sat down and started singing a song from their heart about the day.  

"Sinking Day" was a good episode, mostly watching the performance between Vanessa Hudgens and Alan Tudyk was just amazing, funny and memorable. Those two have some comedy chemistry going on. The second story plot was okay, it just seemed to be like a snack story when it comes to knowing if Alex, the accountant, is The Olympian. But I really liked the short opening of the Hudgens, Pudi, Funches and Pierson talking about where we from and race as it was humorist to hear the word half Philadelphian.  The writing was good as well. Overall, I give this episode a 8.5/10.

You can catch Powerless Thursday nights at 8:30/7:30c on NBC.

Chicago Med: "Heart Matters"/"Graveyard Shift"/"Mirror Mirror"/"Theseus' Ship"

"Heart Matters"

A blast from the blast leaves one nurse on the sidelines while a case of a transplant takes a swift turn.

"Heart Matters" was, once again, another great hour of television. There were so many, many moments in this episode that stood out the most. Here are my top moments that stood out.

1. Maggie and the CPD officer: In one of the most intense encounters, the officer who arrested Maggie last season comes to Med after a fall. She comes in and leaves Maggie stunned. They cannot get the best officer's husband, not wanting to deal with M; TrudyTrudy gets Goodwin to switch nurses and go with April. But Maggie opens up to the officer about what she does to help her patients, like what they do to protect/serve the people. Soon, it was time for the patient to go up to the OR, and a line of officers from hall to hall was present as she was taken to the room. And just before taking out her organs, they announced her name on call one last time.

2. Manning against the Troll: After last week's twisted medical story, Manning had to present at the MMA, for which she went over what happened and learned from her experience and in the future. With pressure for her, Jeff doesn't seem to be the kind to help; even being a student, he tells the Troll that he should lay off on her, like a knight. That embarrassed Manning and didn't help their relationship, but it served a good purpose with Manning and Halstead as he seemed to be her steady rock through it all.  

3. The Heart of the Matter: The officer, being a donor, gave a chance to Rhode's patient, who needed a heart transplant to come in but took a detour because she and her daughter got into an accident due to her being under the influence of alcohol. After learning about the alcohol she had had, the Medical Advisers Broad denied her the transplant, but she didn't care because her daughter needed surgery. But after hearing of the bad news, there was a donor in California who was a match, but being that long of a flight, the heart went back to the mother.  This story was one of the heartbreaking and uplifting moments as well.

I can't say enough how Chicago Med has been laying down some of their best stuff so far. The writing has been nothing but solid, heartfelt, and entertaining. The cast does a great job as a group in this episode. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

"Graveyard Shift"

There's a saying, "Full Moon, Saturday Night." If you ever watched ER, in its first season, there was an episode that took on the night shift of the hospital, and things were crazy. This episode was close to it.

Halstead, Jeff, and a resident worked together on three kids who happened to get high on something, maybe spice, that sent them down pretty severely. It was to the point that one of them needed to be dialysis. Well, with Halstead and Jeff managing well, the resident who was working with them was overwhelmed with all that he was taken in, and even the Troll wasn't a big help either. It was so bad that he was drunk and must be walked out.

Choi gets Goodiwn's word about helping a patient with a heart issue. When they got Rhodes to do it, it wasn't til Choi told him that the patient happened to be a panda. How freaking cute!!! The good news is that the panda was saved after a few issues during surgery, but Med will have a great PR moment for a while.

Reese decided to work the night shift to see that her patient would be treated correctly, but she didn't know that she would be on call to call the time of death to some patients. After working on the two of them pretty well (the second one was Dr. Latham's, which is awkward!), she gets a call about her patient had just died and called it too. She couldn't process it anymore and met with Dr. Charles and told him that she'd do therapy because she didn't know how to handle all of this and didn't want to disappoint him. We learned she talked to her mother about working in psych at the hospital but didn't care. It was to that point that she was trying to prove her wrong about it.

Dr. Latham has been an exciting man to watch lately as he figures out he has Asperger's and asks Dr. Charles for help. Charles recommends some shock therapy that lasts only a tiny amount and a twenty-minute session. After his encounter with Reese about not understanding everyone's emotions, he returns to Charles and asks for that shock therapy, for which it has helped, but for how long?  

I enjoyed this episode because it had entertainment, a cute animal, emotion, and something to learn about: don't jinx someone on having a good night. I thought Lathan, Reese, and even Charles and his daughter sharing a moment were some great story plots in this episode. I wish Halstead would be more caring with that resident, but it's Halstead; his brother Jay is that way sometimes, too. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

"Mirror Mirror"

Talk about a brilliant hour of television.

"Mirror, Mirror" is an episode that I'm sure will be remembered as such a clever, creative episode. Let's recap this:

Halstead gets followed by the Troll, who happens to be taping promo videos for the hospital website after an interesting patient (organs in the opposite place in its body). It was so clever that Rhodes took the case. But later on, when a patient seems to have a sinus issue, the Troll gives him a steroid, and off he goes, but Halstead sees something that he doesn't like and pushes to get tested. After the test results come to him, it turns out he has a tumor, but Halstead thinks that the tape the Troll has might be too much. Halstead talked to the patient about terminating the release forms for privacy, but the guy didn't want to do it because he was finally doing something he would be recognized for.

Choi and Jeff treat a patient with a gun in his...well....butt. Let's say it was up there, and it was loaded. Choi and Jeff try to get it out in the ED, and Reese sees the opportunity to talk to the guy, but he doesn't want to talk. After the gun goes off, going through the body and hitting Jeff, Choi gets the gun out and takes the kid to the OR.

Reese tries to open up to the kid again about talking to her, but he doesn't and would never want to talk to anyone. He tells her that she doesn't know what she wants and that he took her to look at herself in the mirror and talk to herself about what she sees during a session with Dr. Charles' therapist.

But the exciting story came when Manning treated a mother and daughter and had an accident. The mother is all cut up on the forehead, but the daughter seems interesting as she isn't even hurt, but she feels like something is wrong. After tests show nothing, Manning goes to Charles for help, and it turns out she can feel and show signs of what other people are or are having.

I thought this episode was just another brilliant hour of television. They have such good stories and perfect characters, some that I'll probably remember for a while. The writing was excellent. This will be an episode I would want to rewatch again. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

"Theseus' Ship"

Chicago Med keeps it coming with its stories and characters.

"Theseus Ship" is probably one emotional episode and a performance I'm sure will be remembered.

The one story that drew me the most out of this episode was about Manning and an eight-year-old cancer patient. The kid has an infection, but he hasn't been taking his treatment in a while and questions the dad about it. The dad tells Manning that his son decided to stop the treatment as he doesn't want it anymore. Can you believe that?

It was when Manning talked to the kid about taking the treatment, but he told her he was ready for what was next. I went OMG, with a tear or two going down my face. But when April pressured Manning about calling DCFS on this, she wasn't for it until the test results were back, but she called for them, and by the time they came, it was too late as the results came showing that the cancer had been shrinking and that the infection was getting better. But the DCFS had to take the father away in handcuffs.

Everything else from Halstead/Charles/Charles and the cat lady was sometimes funny. The split personality patient was the second-best story plot in this episode. I was more interested in her than the cat lady, to be honest. And, of course, Dr. Latham and Rhodes were excellent as well.

It was another fantastic episode. I'll probably remember this episode with Manning's story and Reese and Charles's storyline. The writing was good as well. The characters were as rich as the previous episodes. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.

You can catch Chicago Med Thursday nights at 9/8c on NBC.
