Burgess Decides on Makayla’s Custodial Guardian
In the upcoming episode on May 5, Burgess needs to decide on who will be Makayla’s (Ramona Edith Williams) custodial guardian.

“But I also think that at least right now, Jay and Kim are just not a compatible duo… When you split the line of who’s Team [Police] Reform, it’s more Jay, Kevin, and Kim, and then Upton and Ruzek and Voight are able to go rogue. So I do think [Halstead and Burgess] have that in common,” she explained.
