Chicago Med season 5, episode 16 synopsis and promo: Who Should Be The Judge

What’s happening in this week’s Chicago Med episode? Find out about Who Should Be The Judge with the Chicago Med season 5, episode 16 synopsis and teaser.

The latest Chicago Med will definitely not be a good day at the hospital, according to NBC‘s official description of the episode and the promo that they’ve been airing ahead of it.

Wednesday’s installment is entitled “Who Should Be the Judge,” and it includes a hostage situation that involves Dr. Natalie Manning (Torrey DeVitto) and Dr. Crockett Marcel (Dominic Rains). They certainly won’t be having a good time with a gun pointed at them, although Natalie might be a bit calmer, considering the number of times this show has tried to kill her.

Meanwhile back in the Emergency Department, with Crockett out of the picture, there’s a new Chexton storyline. Dr. Ethan Choi (Brian Tee) and April Sexton (Yaya DaCosta) will be working together again, and their subplot also has a criminal element to it. It’ll be good to see them in a professional sense since the focus at the moment has been on their romantic relationship.

Will they be able to bring a scammer to justice? And what are the odds that this and/or the hostage story means that we get a Chicago PD guest spot?
