Chicago Med’s season finale is here, so what will happen at the end of Chicago Med season 3? Here are our predictions for the Chicago Med season finale.

Tomorrow’s Chicago Med season finale is the last episode of the entire One Chicago season, so how is our favorite medical drama going to send off the franchise?

There are certainly a lot of balls still in the air. We’re finally going to get to that ambitious surgery with conjoined twins that we’ve been hearing about for literally months, so needless to say we’re hoping it’s worth the wait.

Plus, Dr. Will Halstead (Nick Gehlfuss) has now decided to make a big relationship move, and we still don’t know if the hospital as a whole is on steady ground with all of its financial and political problems.

Who will be where when it’s all over? We’ve put together three predictions for the season finale. Check them out below, then don’t miss the final episode of season 3 on May 15.

1) Will is going to propose

Will got fans excited, and a little surprised, at the end of last week’s episode when he asked his brother Jay (Jesse Lee Soffer) for their mother’s ring—the implication being that Will was going to propose to Dr. Natalie Manning (Torrey DeVitto).

But then the promo for the finale, which you can watch below, made it look like Will might chicken out in the end.

We don’t think he will, for two reasons. For one, this is Will Halstead, who has proven himself to be an utter romantic. He spent two whole seasons pining over Natalie in every way possible, even when he was dating Dr. Nina Shore (Patti Murin). He’s just crazy enough to do this.

For two, this is the kind of plot twist that the writers know would have fans talking. We waited so long for Manstead to even officially be a thing; what better way to keep the audience invested in that relationship than with a marriage proposal? It’s a season finale kind of moment for sure.

Be aware, though, that Med hinted Will was going to propose—it didn’t say anything about her giving him an answer…

2) The twins will be okay

Chicago Med has invested so much time and so much plot into this one conjoined twins operation. We’ve had ten episodes of this at least being mentioned, going back to “Folie A Deux” when it was the abrupt lead-in to a certain one night stand. When you consider that this season was only 20 episodes, that’s half the season.

So there needs to be a payoff here, and it needs to be a good one. The show hasn’t done a great job of convincing fans why we should care so much about this one particular procedure, other than it’s good PR for the hospital and for at least one of our cardiothoracic surgeons. Finally digging into the action will justify all the lead-up.

And there has to be a happy ending here, because does Chicago Med really want to leave us with the sadness that the show killed one or maybe even two babies? That’s not the kind of feeling you want to send an audience off with.

3) Connor and Ava will have a ‘moment’

Speaking of relationships, Chicago Med has shipped Dr. Connor Rhodes (Colin Donnell) and Dr. Ava Bekker (Norma Kuhling) so hard all season—and then not done much about it. After their fling, we got a failed attempt at a date and then that creepy subplot about Connor’s father trying to hit on Ava.

It’s clear that this is the ship the show wants. So it would be very strange if season 3 ended with the episode not having some sort of personal development between them. It could be good or it could not, but there’s going to be a turning point here that changes their relationship outside of the hospital because the show will want to remind us that they have a relationship outside of the hospital.

Let’s hope they don’t somehow upstage Will’s marriage proposal. That would be awkward.
