NBC’s Chicago P.D. returns this week with Season 13, Episode 6, titled “Send Me,” and fans are bracing for another intense, emotionally charged installment. After a string of high-stakes episodes that have pushed Intelligence to its breaking point, this week’s story promises a gripping mix of personal sacrifice, moral conflict, and the trademark tension that defines the long-running police drama.
The episode title, “Send Me,” immediately suggests themes of selflessness and danger — a phrase often used by first responders willing to put themselves in harm’s way for the greater good. And that’s precisely the kind of dilemma fans can expect for Sergeant Hank Voight (Jason Beghe) and his team as they take on one of their most complex cases of the season.
According to the official synopsis, Intelligence investigates a deadly car bombing that appears to be linked to a string of attacks targeting undercover officers. The episode reportedly shines a spotlight on Detective Kim Burgess (Marina Squerciati), whose instincts lead the team toward a dangerous suspect operating in Chicago’s underworld. Still recovering emotionally from the traumatic events of previous episodes, Burgess is forced to navigate her own fears while trying to protect others — a storyline that has become one of the show’s most powerful ongoing arcs.
Meanwhile, Adam Ruzek (Patrick John Flueger) continues to grapple with the aftermath of his own near-death experience earlier in the season. His bond with Burgess will once again be tested as the team faces mounting risks. Fans have long been invested in the Burzek dynamic, and Episode 6 may finally bring clarity — or heartbreak — to their complicated relationship.
Jason Beghe’s Voight also takes center stage, facing renewed pressure from higher-ups as the case threatens to unravel. His leadership and moral compass will be questioned once again as he weighs the cost of saving lives against the rules he’s sworn to uphold. This internal battle has always been at the core of Chicago P.D., and “Send Me” looks poised to deepen that exploration.
Director Chad Saxton, known for helming some of the series’ most cinematic episodes, reportedly brings a visceral energy to this one. Expect dark, moody visuals, fast-paced chases, and emotionally charged performances that highlight both the procedural and psychological sides of the story.
In a season already packed with emotional highs and shocking twists, “Send Me” could emerge as one of the standout episodes of Chicago P.D. Season 13. It’s a reminder of why the series has remained a fan favorite for over a decade — its ability to balance edge-of-your-seat police drama with the human stories behind the badge.
