Because we always pay the cost for you, Hank. I'm telling you, Jay, this is the best option. Voight: But you shouldn't have to pay for this. That you're worth it, and I don't want to give you up. You don't think I know that you're good for the city? I wouldn't be here working for you for 10 years if I didn't think it was all worth it. You are no good to anybody sitting in a jail cell. I've always known that some case would get me in the end. Voight: Jay! Give me up, and your conscience is clean. And it was Halstead's big moment to save his boss, a maneuver that would put him on equal footing. He knows the city needs Voight and the unit does too. You can tell they intended it to be Halstead's hero hour - a significant turning point for his character going forward with the series. Halstead begrudgingly acknowledged that this hour firmly cemented him in a more prominent and active role. In the end, for better and worse, there's only one Voight. I wouldn't go as far as saying that Voight was giving up, but he was giving in to the sacrifice he'd be okay making because it would be the culmination of all of his actions and choices catching up to him.Īs a leader with compelling ownership who does questionable things knowing the risks, it distinguishes him from some of the other characters. : From here on out, you tell me the truth, you bring me in,.From here on out, you tell me the truth, you bring me in, so we don't have to lie anymore. You always say tell me the truth so I can lie for you. It's over, but it's going to be different now between you and me. In a season where Voight, albeit subtly and briefly shown, has been thinking about his son and losses, he exuded a resignation we haven't witnessed before, and it would be fascinating if the series delves into that further when it returns. It was such a gut-wrenching indirect reference to Olinsky, and Al's death still haunts Voight. To Halstead's point, he was right about how they all pay the price because of Voight. But Halstead struggled with exploiting Joe, who needed and deserved help, to save their asses. Jay's 8 Mile Eminem-esque hoodie-wearing undercover alter is appreciated. ![]() Halstead and Voight getting Vice a collar for their benefit gave us a classic but gritty undercover scene. You want to protect your family, this city, so do I. North: This really how you want to do it? You sure? This is who you really want to be? North would also do anything for his family, and his corrupt attempts to protect his drug-addicted brother were the solution to shutting him down. It turns out that everyone has dirt, and despite North's ambitions and plans to use nabbing Voight for clout, he was disappointingly shady too. ![]() Voight had Trudy dig up information on North and words cannot describe how much Trudy's integration into this series is as underrated as it is missed. At best, he's been vague, and at worse, there was simply nothing explored. Much like the other team members haven't had much of a presence in this storyline despite how it affects them, in some ways, we haven't seen where Voight's head has been with this either. ![]() It was unusual that Voight didn't have much of a solution or plan even though he expected Halstead and Hailey to trust him. He loves her and wants to protect her, and that's fair, but it's the secrecy that messed things up in the first place. I'm here right now because of you handling it. She doesn't need another thing to eat, so in in the next 24 hours, you and me are going to handle this together. Halstead: No, I do want that, and I'm going to trust that since I brought you into this, that you're going to give me that. Voight: I don't think you actually want that. Anything that's done from here on out we're doing together. I'm done with being in the dark, and you taking care of things solo. I'm not wearing a wire, look, here you want to see? He said either he's going to arrest Hailey and me, or I give him you. North drove me out there last night, and he made me an offer. He's protective of the woman he loves, and he's taken it upon himself to protect Hailey (and, to a degree Voight) from themselves.īut as inexplicably burdened as Hailey was by her actions, it wasn't right for him to speak on behalf of Hailey and suggest that Voight keep her out of it. ![]()
