The logline for Chicago P.D. season 12 episode 12 reads,
"Intelligence makes a gruesome discovery that leads Torres to go undercover at the juvenile detention center where he served time as a teen."
After this week's crossover episode where Ruzek averted the subway disaster, the upcoming week will focus on Torres' character arc. As seen in the promotional video, Torres says "I know this place", before entering the juvenile detention center to solve the case. His troubled demeanor and intense scream towards the end hint that he will be confronting unknown demons from his past.
For fans of the character, this episode will be an interesting insight into his backstory. Additionally, viewers can expect the focus to fall back on Ruzek, who will be dealing with his father's Alzheimer’s in the coming episodes. Speaking to TV Insider on January 22, 2025, Patrick Flueger talked about his character's reasoning behind taking his ailing father in his home. He said,
No, I don’t think he has any concept of what he’s taking on. I just don’t think he can conceptualize the idea of letting him go anywhere but home. I don’t think it’s about how hard it’s going to be. It’s not about, have I really thought this out?
He continued,
"It’s about, “I don’t need to think about anything at all. You’re coming home to me and I’m going to take care of you. I will not let you go. Certainly not far, far away, not in Florida, go be by yourself and fall apart? No, no, you come home, I’ll take care of you like you took care of me.”"
