What to Expect from Chicago P.D. Season 12 Episode 17: Transference
Atwater and Val’s relationship hasn’t been publicly discussed with the Intelligence Unit, but that likely changes on Chicago P.D. Season 12 Episode 17, “Transference.” Things change when Val feels in danger, and Atwater discovers it might be related to one of her patients.
Even though she tries to brush it off as something that could happen with a patient, Atwater begins to suspect the patient is stalking her. The evidence soon starts pointing toward this as well.

Now that someone is coming after Val and maybe even him, Atwater must tell the team about his relationship. The only way to stop the patient is to collaborate with the unit and let them help catch him.
