Chicago PD\u2019s \u201cThe Ghost in You\u201d tried to make Hank Voight out to be some sort of savior when he\u2019s something however.<\/span><\/p>\n We\u2019ve seen him go off the deep finish one too many occasions, and whereas that didn\u2019t occur on this episode, we have been reminded of the occasions he has with a painful nod to Alvin Olinksy within the opening scene. It was intentional, hoping it will tug on the heartstrings of viewers and make us really feel one thing for Voight, however all it made me really feel was resentment for the man over again. Because if it weren\u2019t for him and his previous actions, Alvin would nonetheless be alive, and his loss of life wouldn\u2019t be thrown in our faces as some type of leverage tactic. The character shouldn\u2019t be taken benefit of like that, and it’s a loss within the PD universe that I\u2019m undecided I\u2019ll ever recover from.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This episode isn\u2019t about Alvin although, it\u2019s not even actually about Voight both. It\u2019s about selections. The selections we make when our backs are in opposition to the wall, once we\u2019re determined or lonely, the sort of selections that remind us we\u2019re all simply common people who find themselves making an attempt our greatest and generally we fall quick.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n ASA Nina Chapman is a type of individuals. She\u2019s only a common particular person making an attempt to do her greatest with what’s thrown at her. She made a selection and fell into mattress together with her informant, going in opposition to an expert code of ethics that put her case in jeopardy and practically misplaced her, her profession within the course of.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n And using in on the white horse to avoid wasting the day is Hank Voight. He will get Chapman out of a messy state of affairs, surprisingly by the ebook, and helps give her some semblance of closure to years price of guilt.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n That final scene had me feeling a sure kind of method although. Chapman had it proper when she stated Voight was soiled and merciless, however respectable? I don\u2019t suppose I\u2019ll ever agree with that one.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I get the entire spiel that simply because somebody does unhealthy issues, that doesn\u2019t make them a nasty particular person, however that\u2019s not completely true with regards to Voight. His popularity has been constructed round being unhealthy and being soiled and never taking no for a solution. He does issues his method whether or not proper or incorrect so long as the result’s in his favor, and it\u2019s arduous to root for a personality like that who has such an unsightly sense of morality and prides himself on it the best way he does.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n It all circles again to the alternatives individuals make although, to the sort of particular person you wish to be and the sort of particular person you might be, and although it\u2019s an excellent message, it\u2019s not an excellent one for Hank Voight. I can\u2019t actually really feel something aside from disgust for the man who has performed as a lot incorrect as he has over the past ten seasons.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEh_2VoIYRo5nwbJtBTYJNdCx3Q7PzTcQgZPSoDAtXcogGDY6GiAlh0CQRJttyf2k0KFPQcpUtxG60Ju4eg9KDfh6dmp3QmjewYdCll_-E9ligv7MTBNtypbqDoPTUWRfBcHv2n0b8wuTk3NGpptWb4zFPTaI24Tpn92ur9iyknq89tSvO7ASw\/s1000\/hank%20alvin%201013.JPG\")
