Sergeant Voight (Jason Beghe) and Deputy Chief Reid (Shawn Hatosy) are about to conflict on Chicago P.D.
Within the March 5 episode, titled “Better Good,” Voight questions Reid’s motives in enacting a Violence Discount Initiative throughout a neighborhood the place quite a few gangs are combating for territory — and he ought to, says Hatosy.
“This isn’t one thing that Intelligence must waste their time with,” he tells TV Insider. “[Reid] is sort of being clear in that, like, ‘Yeah, nicely, it’s not likely a lot what I simply advised everyone else. What I want you to do is I’ve this group in Lawndale that I want you to take a look at, I want you there.’”
Issues will, after all, go awry, with this op. “They should get a warrant, and as we type of dig into the nuts and bolts of what getting that warrant seems to be like, Voight understands that Reid really in all probability has any individual else that he has leverage on that he’s going to simply go seize a warrant from,” Hatosy previews. “Then you definately sort of perceive slightly bit about Reid’s backstory. You discover out that his mom was killed in a botched financial institution theft and that’s sort of what made him grow to be a cop. And after we’re dealing with a world that’s that darkish, does it actually matter how we get a warrant, what I imply? We’re going to get the warrant, we’re going to get the dangerous man. Who cares how we get it? So I believe he comes from a really pure place. He simply has a humorous method of getting there.”
Heading into this episode, we’ve already seen Reid make some strikes (and vital non-moves) in the case of the unit. After Burgess (Marina Squerciati) acquired her detective badge, she’d been prepared to briefly switch elsewhere; he stored her with Intelligence. Then, when he discovered that Torres (Benjamin Levy Aguilar) had an intimate relationship with a prison informant, Burgess lined it up, and the complete unit knew, he didn’t do something and as a substitute has that data in his again pocket. So what precisely is Reid’s tackle Voight and the way he runs his unit?
“I believe he’s fairly clear on who Voight is. I believe he’s learn each report. He is aware of that Voight has a historical past much like Reid’s, and I believe it’s a very good dynamic for the 2,” says Hatosy. “I additionally suppose that their friendship, which we’re testing the boundaries of on this episode, which was specified by Episode 8 — I consider that that Reid expects Voight to do what he wants. And so this can be a very nice alternative with this Violence Discount Initiative and placing him on that block in Lawndale is step one to see how that is going to work out.”
