Torrey DeVitto may not have particularly expected to be pulled back into the One Chicago franchise after she left it behind, but she appreciated the way the brief comeback was written: first, the reveal that Halstead and Manning have maintained contact after she left Chicago, and then the happy one-scene reunion in the season finale. "It was really short and sweet and beautiful — exactly what it needed to be," she said.
As far as DeVitto is concerned, the reunion scene is the best possible way to wrap things up for Manning, Halstead, and Owen. Still, "Chicago Med" always has a few surprises up its sleeve, so she didn't entirely rule out future appearances. "I feel like there's always, like, a chance — they can make whatever happen on this show," she admitted. "But from my point of view right now, it was the perfect closure that I felt like I never got with the character and that Nick and I never got with our characters together. It's a really special closure."
In the One Chicago universe, happy endings are never guaranteed. As such, it's heartwarming that the "Chicago Med" Season 8 finale provides one for two of the show's longtime main characters ... and understandable that DeVitto would be happy to see that ending stick.
