‘Chicago PD’ season 3 spoilers: First details on ‘A Night Owl’

The third season of “Chicago PD” is currently in the process of airing new episodes, and there are a wide array of different cases that are going to see unfold still. One of the key pressures of this show is working to figure out how to continue to tell interesting stories week in and week out, especially ones that are different than any that we have seen before.

If nothing else, we can definitely say with a little bit of confidence that the upcoming February 17 installment entitled “A Night Owl” is going to be different. After all, we don’t see many cases that start off with a professor being accused of bringing drugs from one place to the next. The synopsis below offers up a little more information:

“While working at a sobriety checkpoint, Burgess (Marina Squerciati) finds a duffel bag full of heroin in the truck of a respected college professor who claims to know nothing about how the drugs ended up there. Voight (Jason Beghe) decides to hold off on charging the unlikely suspect and Olinksy (Elias Koteas) and Antonio (Jon Seda) follow up on a lead to see who is behind the drug smuggling. At District, Roman (Brian Geraghty) expresses his desires to become a Field Training Office to Platt (Amy Morton) and Mouse (guest star Samuel Hunt) sets Halstead (Jesse Lee Soffer) up with an off-duty security job working for the attractive owner of a medical marijuana clinic.”

Obviously, the last part of the description will be what makes Lindsay / Halstead ‘shippers the most concerned when it comes to the future of their beloved couple. For now, we’d just say that we are not taking this as any sign that they are doomed or anything similar to it.
