Chicago Med spoilers about the season finale
“Shocking information threatens Jack Dayton’s surgery and the future of OR 2.0,” reads the first part of the synopsis for the Chicago Med season finale.
This appears to be a big spoiler hinting that the new boss (Jack Dayton) will need surgery at the hospital.
If Dayton’s health takes a turn, it could raise questions about how the hospital will operate without him.
During the last episode before the hiatus, it was revealed Dayton wants to make the hospital for-profit and turn everything over to investors. Sharon Goodwin (played by Epatha Merkerson) and Maggie Lockwood (Marlyne Barrett) are against it.
