Chicago P.D.: Eva Imani Steps Into the Fire — And Voight Finally Meets His Match

Описание: Chicago P.D. Season 13, Episode 4 “Root Cause” gives us a case-heavy, tension-filled hour that somehow feels like the calm before a storm — especially for Voight. That mysterious photo left on his SUV might just be the start of something much bigger, but for now, the episode also uses that backdrop to shine a light on the team’s newest addition, Eva Imani.

It’s rare for Chicago P.D. to balance Voight’s shadow with another strong presence, but Arienne Mandi’s Eva Imani doesn’t just share the screen — she owns it. From her fearless undercover work to her sharp instincts and willingness to challenge Voight himself, Imani is quickly proving she’s not afraid to walk through the same fire that made him who he is. She speaks Arabic, has a painful past involving a sister she lost contact with, and carries the kind of quiet strength that commands attention.

What’s most refreshing is how naturally she fits into Intelligence — not as a replacement, but as her own person. After the quick exits of Upton, Rojas, and even Kiana Cook’s character, it’s fair to wonder if Chicago P.D. would ever give us a new female lead worth investing in. But Imani feels different. She’s grounded, complex, and carries a kind of emotional honesty that this unit has been missing for a while.

Still, the show will need to build out her connections beyond Voight. While their partnership is electric — full of mutual respect and unspoken understanding — it’s time to see Imani interact with Kim, Torres, or Ruzek. Because when Chicago P.D. leans into its found-family energy, it hits harder than any case file ever could.

With Voight’s past seemingly creeping up on him and Imani’s story only beginning, “Root Cause” feels like the setup for a larger, darker arc — one that could redefine both characters before the season’s over.
