Fans of Kim Burgess are eager to hear Chicago P.D. Season 9 spoilers, as her life hangs in the balance. Burgess was shot twice by Roy in the Chicago P.D. Season 8 finale, leaving her for dead. Thankfully, she was rescued before she died, and she begins the new season in the hospital. Now, Adam Ruzek takes on the responsibility of telling Makayla Burgess exactly what’s going on with her adoptive mother. Here’s what’s happening with Kim Burgess, Adam Ruzek, and Makayla Burgess in Chicago P.D. Season 9 Episode 1.

Is Kim Burgess going to die? She was shot several times in the ‘Chicago P.D.’ Season 8 finale

Kim Burgess was shot in the last episode of Chicago P.D. Season 8. Now, Chicago P.D. Season 9 spoilers suggest we’ll see plenty more of Burgess’s recovery in the new season. The end of season 8 showed Burgess heading off to Chicago Med, and it seemed like the doctors were able to stabilize her condition. But she certainly has a long way to go.

Executive Producer Rick Eid hinted at Burgess’s difficult recovery moving forward, too. “She is by no means through the woods,” he said, according to TV Insider.

Burgess actor Marina Squerciati also talked about where her character’s headed in Chicago P.D. Season 9. “She’s really affected in the beginning,” Squerciati told HELLO!. “Whatever she is suffering though, she’s put a mask on in front of her kid, which is something we all do. We want to show our kids our best selves [because] we want to make them into the best people we can. But she is fighting a darker side of herself and that’s winning.”

‘Chicago P.D.’ Season 9 spoilers: Adam Ruzek tells Burgess’s daughter about the shooting

Chicago P.D. Season 9 spoilers note Adam Ruzek has a difficult decision to make when it comes to Kim Burgess. Ruzek and Burgess have a long history, and they were going to have a baby together prior to Burgess’s miscarriage. Now, in season 9, viewers see just how worried Ruzek becomes over Burgess’s injuries. And because her adopted daughter, Makayla, is in his care, he has a difficult decision to make. Does he tell Makayla what happened to her mother?

Ultimately, Ruzek decides to tell the young Makayla about the shooting. “Listen, the reason she hasn’t been here is that she got hurt at work,” Ruzek explains to the child.

“She’s hurt?” Makayla asks.

“Yeah,” Ruzek responds, “but she’s in the hospital trying to get better.”

Makayla then calls Burgess her “best friend,” and she tells Ruzek she wants to see her even if they have to go to the hospital. From there, Ruzek brings Makayla in to see Burgess.
