Chicago P.D. has a new episode coming out on Wednesday night that will put Detective Hailey Upton in a very dangerous situation.
After glossing over what Upton is going through on the last episode of Chicago P.D., it appears that the writers are ready to circle back to the character played by Tracy Spiridakos.
Following the exit of Jay Halstead (played by Jesse Lee Soffer), the show focused a lot on Benjamin Levy Aguilar returning as Dante Torres. Chief Patty O’Neal is a big fan of Voight, so he allowed the team to take on a new recruit.
Intelligence looks a lot different with Torres now holding an important position on the squad, and it was a good choice by the writers to give him an entire episode to help flesh out more of his backstory.
But now it’s time to see how Upton is dealing with her husband leaving town to go back to the Army, especially after the couple had been through so much in recent seasons.
We may have already seen a hint of things to come when Upton stepped in during the absence of Halstead and Voight during a case earlier this season, proving that she might be able to run Intelligence if the time came.
Chicago P.D. Season 10, Episode 5 synopsis
“Upton’s dogged pursuit of a missing teenage girl leads the team into a dark web of human trafficking. Chief O’Neal becomes involved with the unit’s investigation when it becomes evident his son, Sean, has a connection to the missing girl,” reads the full synopsis for Chicago P.D. Season 10, Episode 5.
It seems pretty clear that without any relationship drama, Upton is going to develop laser focus on closing cases, no matter what it takes. That is going to put her in a dangerous situation during the next new episode.
