Intelligence has a Deputy Chief downside proper now on Chicago P.D.: Reid (Shawn Hatosy) stopped Burgess (Marina Squerciati) from briefly transferring to a different unit after she acquired her detective badge and is aware of issues that the unit has lined up concerning Torres (Benjamin Levy Aguilar) and his relationship with a CI. He instructed Voight (Jason Beghe) that he needs to make use of the data in a different way and for them to be buddies. That may’t imply something good. Voight doesn’t belief Reid in any respect, says Beghe.
“The query isn’t about who you possibly can and may’t belief — that’s apparent — however it’s additionally tips on how to navigate that. And so right here’s a man who’s harmful and he might harm Voight, however he might additionally harm his crew, which is type of not one thing he’s prepared to compromise on. Voight would positively go to the mattresses: You attempt to harm my individuals, then it’s an entire different, there’s no governor left,” Beghe tells TV Insider. “We’re stepping into that space. However the factor that’s fascinating is that I believe what’s implied, though we don’t have the identical type of historical past, that Reid is identical. This isn’t the man you F with. Similar to you’re not going to F with me, neither are you going to F with him.”
Beghe additionally notes that whereas he’s older than Hatosy, whom he praises, “we glance comparable. It’s virtually like Voight’s wanting within the mirror, and I discover it fascinating. We’re going to see what occurs. I’m positively having enjoyable on and off the set with it. We’re type of attending to the crescendo as we’re ending the season and it’s going to go someplace. I can really feel it heading someplace. I mentioned to Shawn, ‘Sooner or later, we’re going to be grabbing one another’s shirts at the least.’ And he mentioned, yeah. You possibly can see it occurring, you possibly can really feel it. That’s clearly metaphorical. However any individual goes down.”
Additionally arising for Voight is the aftermath of Chapman (Sara Bues) telling him she cared about him after risking her profession by mendacity about having a prison informant to get the unit a warrant to entry a serial killer’s house. The ASA then went away to work a case, however she might be coming again quickly.
“We’ve shot one episode since she’s been again and we’re working collectively very intently, however we’ve not introduced up and even alluded to that different dialog,” shares Beghe. “However there’s a closeness and a respect and a phrase you would use that in all probability can be misinterpreted, so with a grain of salt, intimacy, which Voight definitely doesn’t share a lot with many others; the crew members that he was in a position to try this with, that he had traditionally performed it with, are all gone or lifeless. And so it’s type of fascinating, I believe, to see a little bit little bit of Voight at house, so to talk.”
However first up is the February 26 episode, the second a part of the case launched in “Zoe.” That episode earlier this season launched Zoe, a younger lady who had been kidnapped. The person accountable, a serial killer, remains to be on the market. It was private for Ruzek (Patrick John Flueger) then and stays so, particularly as he continues to grapple along with his father’s Alzheimer’s prognosis.
Beghe thinks that Voight is conscious of all that and that he ought to be maintaining a tally of him, “however it doesn’t actually matter. This isn’t actually about Voight. That is about Ruzek and about cops and it simply occurs to be a wonderful episode that’s extremely effectively written, acted, and directed. It’s episode of tv.”
He provides that it was “a pleasure to take part in. You understand how reveals are generally, ‘Nicely, that’s not my cup of tea. I don’t actually like cop reveals and I’m extra into rom-coms or no matter.’ That is an episode that I really feel would attraction to most anyone. It’s nice. It’s actually good. It’s exhausting to not like this one.”
