Chicago PD season 7, episode 5 synopsis and promo: Brother’s Keeper

What’s happening in this week’s Chicago PD episode? Find out about Brother’s Keeper with the Chicago PD season 7, episode 5 synopsis and teaser.

The next Chicago PD is going to be giving someone a headache, according to NBC‘s official description of the episode and the promo they’ve released for it.

Wednesday’s episode is entitled “Brother’s Keeper,” and the network is being more vague than usual about the plot. All One Chicago fans know is that it concerns a homicide investigation, and the neighborhood doesn’t want to cooperate. We don’t know what kind of murder it was or any details surrounding the crime, unlike usual when the synopsis will usually mention if drugs or a gang were involved.

On top of that, Adam Ruzek (Patrick John Flueger) is about to get himself in trouble, again. He’s certainly making a name for himself, and not in a good way. What sets Ruzek off this time? And how will that go over with the rest of Intelligence, considering that he just got out from behind bars and only because strings had to be pulled? He should want to tread lightly—but it doesn’t seem like he can.

Having very few details also implies there’s a plot twist somewhere in this episode that the network doesn’t want to give away in advance. So let the speculation begin!

Here’s how NBC officially describes the episode:

"A murder in a Bulgarian neighborhood results in a challenging investigation when locals won’t talk to police. Ruzek has a clash with a patrol officer."

And here’s the promotional video that’s been airing in advance of the episode (which actually covers all three One Chicago shows; there’s no individual promo):
