S12.E13: Street Jesus


Recommended Posts

Chileeeee. This episode was a mess. 

Atwater went back to rookie officer or something. All of those errors and simple mistakes with things he knows better on. You can't tell me he really thought homie was going outside to get the money. Or that Hype wasn't a dead man walking, giving out all that "free info" after "Kevin Anderson" paid Luther a visit. Kevin's been doing this for over a decade. He knows better. 

I don't get how a drug deal gone bad devolved into multiple murders. It didn't make sense for Luther to go back and kill Wendell. Sure Wendell could ID him for killing the innocent kid, but at the same time, they'd both be on the hook for that murder. And it's not like Wendell robbed him, because Luther got back in the car with his duffel bag. 

Voight got Hype killed (sad) and then tried to offer a consolation prize about not revealing that he was forced to work with police. And Atwater thanked him for that. I wouldn't have had shit to say. I was excited for their lil community project too. 😕

Lastly, I'll say this. Say what you want about Hailey but she knew how to treat her CIs. I didn't like how Kevin was threatening ol' girl about her case and now she's essentially outed as a whole snitch. Reminds me of Kim and her CI. PD has to do better. 

PS- no way Atwater goes undercover undetected after that public announcement about the community center.

What more can I tell you, other than it was written by Rick Eid... the man that bought you the Roy Walton mess, Upzek, Detective Barbie & the repeated brutalisation of Burgess, got rid of Antonio is some stupid drug storyline, killed Al & stuck Atwater in that black v blue merry-go-round.

Such a shame. Atwater deserved better.

I feel better now!

I thought Kevin's behavior with Voight at the end didn't make sense. Even if he didn't want to get angry with his boss, I felt like we should have seen that he was pissed about the situation or even felt a little guilty about it himself. Some kind of emotion.

I also wondered how all those guys hadn't seen or heard anything about the community center. Not from the news but just from around the neighborhood.  Hype was involved - folks would be mentioning Hype and his new project and the policeman he was working with. It's not like Kev tries to disguise himself.  And they were just standing on a podium together.

And Kev did blow his snitch's cover. She has to leave the neighborhood...🙄

There were issues with this episode.

Every CI Voight drags in gets killed.  And it doesnt bother him one bit. As soon as they said he was going to wear a wire, I knew he was a dead man.

It wasnt a good episode.

Chicago PD has taught us to never be a CI. We have a better chance of staying alive by going to jail.

Kevin trying to be everything to all people backfires spectacularly. He should’ve kept Voight in the loop from the very beginning and let him handle the rest.

Kevin going UC to meet Wendell and then Luther doesn’t really make sense to me. He was at the fundraiser where Hype publicly called him “Officer Atwater”. Then he worked on both crime scenes — Alonzo and Wendell. There are eyes everywhere.

This episode is a mess. But hey, at least we get to hear Voight’s iconic lines. 😉

Kevin-centric episodes used to be compelling especially with the Black vs Blue storylines. But this season, his episodes are not good. The best episodes go to Adam and Voight.
