what would be damn cool is if you had jay and adam kidnapped cuz that would kill two birds with one stone...

1. you can deepen adam and jay's "friendship" and give them both more screen time together

2. you can also deepen kim and hailey's "friendship" and keep the screen time together

how do you think hailey (especially looking back on 7x09 losing her control) and kim would be freaking out 😅

This would definitely be an interesting situation that could give us some really cool dynamics. But I also feel that capturing Jay and Adam together would be a bad idea. 😂 Hear me out! Adam is not very patient, and his recklessness and lack of patience have put either himself or someone else at risk. We saw that in 9x15 when Makayla was taken. We also saw that when Kim was taken. I think Jay and Adam would be an interesting dynamic to explore, but they could also be a chaotic duo. They don't really have anything in common other than their stubbornness. Jay is the kind of person that would sit still and wait for the team to rescue him. Adam is the kind of person who wouldn't sit still and would try to do everything he can to be set free. And every time he fails, he gets more agitated and reckless. Jay would try to pull rank, but Adam, stubbornly won't listen. It could just be me, but I feel like they would just drive each other nuts. 😳

But if kidnapping Adam and Jay together would mean more Kim and Hailey scenes, then I'm down for it. Ever since S5, I've been wanting some sort of friendship between the two women of Intelligence, and if kidnapping both their love interests is what finally gets us that friendship, then that's what I want.

Three scenes you'd like to see in season 10?

(1) A nice domestic Upstead scene. Maybe them out on a date, or having dinner with Will, just a little more of a glimpse into their day-to-day really, even if it's small.

(2) Kevin to have love as well as a storyline that doesn't revolve around his race and/or his race in conjunction with being a cop. Don't get me wrong, it's obviously very relevant, but it's literally all they've done with him for years. Even in storylines that didn't have to go there.

(3) Musical Partners. I want them to switch it up. I want more Burgwater, more Upwater, more Ruzstead, all of it. I'd like a glimpse into the interpersonal as friends between all these guys, show us what girls night out looks like for Hailey and Kim, do they pass the Bechdel test? Show us a team night at a Hawks game. Or celebrating a birthday or another milestone on the job (Adam's ten year would be this season, maybe Kim's too). Just show me more of the team interacting both on the job and off.

“You don’t seem like yourself tonight.” - halzek

Its a coincidence, more than anything, Jay tells himself as he lingers at Molly’s hand around a half empty beer glass. Its a coincidence that they seem to be the last ones to leave, that the rest of the squad trickles home with excuses and apologies, promises for the morning. Its a coincidence that after everyone else has made their way out the door, Adam Ruzek is left next to him every time, nearly elbow to elbow at the bar, cracking jokes and debating players on their favorite teams, talking odds of playoffs or championships. 

Tonight is no different, in some respects. Hailey says good night, offers Jay a little half hug, promises that she’ll be in early tomorrow to catch up on the paperwork she agreed to do for him in exchange for a favor, and Adam is the one left next to him. But its different somehow too, because Adam has been quiet all night, hasn’t cracked a smile. Jay tells himself he noticed this because he’s a detective, because its his job to notice things. Its not really the truth. 

“So what’s up, Ruz?” Jay offers with the same lighthearted tone he’d use with anyone else, offering him a chance- an out so they don’t have to talk about whatever it is that’s bothering Adam, because Jay’s not really the person Adam goes to, and there’s no reason to expect that to change now. 

Adam turns to look at Jay like he’s sort of surprised to see him there, like he thought he was alone, “not much. Been a day.” Adam shrugs his shoulders and turns back to his glass. Jay’s chest clenches, because there’s so clearly something wrong, something eating at Adam, and even if Jay’s not the person Adam goes to, if Jay’s being honest with himself, he wishes that he was. 

They sit in silence for a little longer, because Jay can’t muster the courage to try again, and Adam seems to have forgotten Jay’s presence at his side again, like his elbow doesn’t bump into Jay’s whenever he moves to lift his glass to his lips. 

“You off tomorrow?” Adam finally breaks the silence, but it’s nothing of substance of course, a filler, something to throw into this vacuum growing between them. 

“Look man, I don’t know what’s going on, but if you want to talk, I’m here…” Jay finally responds instead, dropping a firm hand on Adam’s shoulder, trying to assure himself this is a friendly gesture and nothing more. 

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Adam furrows his brow, like he doesn’t know what Jay’s getting at, even though they both know that’s not true. 

“You don’t seem like yourself tonight,” Jay shrugs, ducks his head as he feels the beginning of a hot blush spreading across the bridge of his nose, suddenly feeling like he’s prying into something he should have, playing a hand he should have folded. 

Jay expects defensiveness, expects Adam to lash out, or at the very least insist that he’s fine, that he’s okay. That whatever it is Jay’s noticing is out of his own imagination. Instead, Adam sort of deflates. “I don’t know, it was a rough case, I can’t get her out of my head,” he admits softly. 

Jay runs his hand over his jaw, not sure what to say now that Adam’s opened up to him, “drinking won’t help,” he nods to Adam’s glass, and he knows because he’s been there. He reaches into his back pocket, pulls out his wallet and leaves a few bills on the bar top. “Come on, lets get out of here.”

“And go where?” Adam asks, reluctant, downing the rest of his glass, because he’s still sort of hoping to drown the feelings with liquor instead. 

“My place, or yours,” Jay shrugs, “or just a walk. Whatever. But sitting here and moping isn’t going to make you feel any better, and if you end up with a hangover tomorrow you’ll only feel worse.” 

Adam pauses for a moment, hesitates, and Jay wonders if he’s gone too far, if Adam’s going to push him away, but he doesn’t, just slides off the bar stool and pulls on his jacket. “A walk sounds okay,” he admits, that same sort of soft tone to his voice, and Jay can’t help but notice the way Adam’s knuckles brush against the back of his hand as he walks. It feels like a promise.

gwen wants to bring in more balance do you think there will be more burgstead and ruzstead scenes for example? and do you think we're going to get a really good Upstead scene in the next few episodes?

I love seeing these partnerships we rarely see!! I think even last night we got to see a really great mix with some (few) but very sweet upstead scenes in between. According to Tracy’s interviews from last night, we’ve got some upstead coming up in the form of conflict. Honestly, (and I know not everyone agrees here) I say bring on the angst! Their angst gives me such a buzz and it usually only shows just how strong their relationship is.

don’t mind me just having a moment over ruzstead

[anniesardors]

in 9x18 i have to say i found it a bit sad that jay had to carry the whole burden due to torres' past (as a sergeant you have to take responsibility, i'm aware of that) and he didn't get any support from the team... as if he had chosen torres and it would have been his fault... I would also have liked more interaction with Adam (Ruzstead) and Kim (Burgstead)... that's my opinion anyway... what do you say?

He had to take the brunt of the responsibility since he was Torres' training officer. And because of the nature of the case and the reasons they were looking into Torres, I imagine it was a need to know basis. That being said, I'm always hoping for more teams interactions, especially the ones that we don't get to see as much! If we start to get more of a Sergeant Jay storyline, I hope we see these interactions and the other members of Intelligence supporting him.

Looking at the Ruzstead sneak peek I really think it’s Adam getting shot and that we will be left with a cliffhanger. There’s no way they’ll shoot Jay for a third season. I think Adams shooting will prompt some conversation between him and Kim especially about potentially co-parenting Makayla. I do however hope we get a concerned Hailey embracing Jay but soemthing tells me we went get that till March 10th when PD returns.
