NBC’s Chicago P.D. never shies away from putting its characters through the wringer, and the upcoming episode, “The Good Shepherd,” appears to be no exception. This time, it’s Officer Dante Torres whose past comes back to haunt him, courtesy of a grim discovery that sends the Intelligence Unit on a particularly unsettling case.
The details are still under wraps, but what we know is this: the unit stumbles onto something disturbing – the kind of thing that makes even hardened cops take a step back. This discovery leads Torres back to the doors of a juvenile detention center, a place he knows all too well from his younger days. It’s not a social call. Torres is going undercover, which means revisiting a difficult chapter he’d probably rather keep closed.
Undercover work is always fraught with tension, but for Torres, this assignment carries an extra weight. He’s not just playing a role; he’s confronting the ghosts of his own history. How will he handle the pressure cooker of being back in a place that likely holds some painful memories? Will his past help or hinder his ability to do his job? And, perhaps most importantly, what will this experience reveal about the man Torres has become?
Chicago P.D. airs Wednesdays at 10 PM Eastern on NBC.
