Chicago PD season 9 episode 21 spoilers: House of Cards

Last Wednesday night, Chicago PD season 21 finally returned to NBC’s schedule as we entered the final stretch of the season — and boy, what an episode it was!

While the case of the week didn’t have any direct connection to the ongoing undercover op the Intelligence Unit has been working with help from Anna, the episode sure did end with quite an unexpected Burzek moment.

Across the episode, Burgess and Ruzek continued to work on finding balance in co-parenting Makayla while also looking out for her well-being following the recent trauma she experienced. We expected this as the pair have been trying to sort things out for several episodes now. What we did not expect was Ruzek revealing to Burgess that he was looking to buy his childhood home and wanted Burgess and Makayla to move in with him!

Clearly, the writers are building toward something big for Burzek as the season nears its end, so we’ll have to keep a watch on what’s to come. This week, though, it seems we’ll be shifting our attention back towards the undercover op.

Just what’s to come this week? Below we share the promo, synopsis, and photos for episode 21, “House of Cards.”

This week, lines begin to blur when Voight must lie to Anna in hopes of not jeopardizing the case which leads to some further trust issues between the two.

Here’s how NBC officially describes season 9, episode 21:

"As the team closes in on drug kingpin Javier Escano, Voight is forced to lie to his undercover informant Anna to keep her on track. Their deteriorating trust threatens an increasingly tenuous operation."
