In Chicago P.D. Season 9 Episode 4, Halstead tracks Voight down and finds Voight at the same location he visited on the night of Kim Burgess’s attack. Finally, Voight cracks and tells Halstead everything that happened. He then explains how Upton killed Roy, a fact Halstead initially tries to deny. At the end of their confrontation, Halstead punches Voight in the mouth before heading home.

The episode concludes with a haunting image of Halstead arriving home. Upton’s in bed, but she jolts awake and sees Halstead looking disappointed, fearful, and angry in the doorway. In response, Upton starts to sit up in bed and returns a look of worry. Upton clearly knows what’s coming — and the fallout could be huge.

Is Halstead and Upton’s relationship doomed from this point forward? Tracy Spiridakos told HollywoodLife the couple’s relationship will “absolutely” become affected by Roy’s death. “That dynamic is affected for sure,” she shared. And with zero known plans for a Halstead/Upton wedding, some fans may suspect they’ll break off the engagement.
