Chicago Med Season 8, Episode 5 debuts on Wednesday night, and the new episode is packing a huge surprise for viewers.
In the last episode of Chicago Med, Dr. Crockett Marcel played the hero after he ran toward a derailed underground train to help with the casualties.
The night also turned into a mini-crossover with Chicago Fire, as Kelly Severide and Christopher Herrmann from Firehouse 51 showed up to help with an intense rescue.
A Crockett-central episode also allowed the writers to close the doors on Dr. Pamela Blake. She has taken a job in Boston rather than return following her recovery.
It was recently announced that Sarah Rafferty had left the Chicago Med cast after playing Dr. Blake for a short while.
The door has now been opened for someone to join the show, and here are some Chicago Med cast rumors for anyone who wants to jump ahead.
