Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego... I Mean, Torres?
So, let’s talk about the elephant in the interrogation room - or should I say, the missing detective in the bullpen? Where on earth has Torres been? Has he joined the Witness Protection Program and become a professional cupcake baker? Or maybe he’s just really good at hiding from Voight's wrath.
A Brief History of Torres’ Disappearance
For those of you who’ve been living under a rock (or maybe you’re just really good at avoiding spoilers), Torres took a little hiatus from the Intelligence Unit. It was like when your favorite character mysteriously disappears from a soap opera, leaving you screaming at the TV, "Where’s Torres?!" Okay, maybe it wasn't quite that dramatic, but it was definitely a plot twist we didn’t see coming.
Apparently, our boy Torres had some family matters to attend to. Can you believe it? A life outside of catching bad guys? Who knew? We're talking about the guy who can probably disarm a bomb while juggling kittens, and he’s taking time off to, like, do laundry? It’s almost suspicious.
Torres: The Return of the Prodigal Son
Thankfully, the Intelligence Unit was reunited with their lost sheep. And let’s just say, he came back with a bang. Or maybe more like a boom. Because, let's face it, Torres doesn't exactly do things quietly.
Now, we’re all wondering if he’s brought back any interesting souvenirs from his time away. Maybe he learned how to make authentic Italian pasta or picked up some sweet parkour skills? Or, considering his line of work, maybe he's got some new interrogation techniques up his sleeve that would make Voight proud (or terrified).
How to...
- How to survive a Torres-less episode? Stock up on your favorite snacks, binge-watch other cop shows, and pray for a fast forward button.
- How to deal with withdrawal symptoms from Torres not being on screen? Repeat after me: “He’ll be back. He’ll be back.”
- How to prepare for Torres’ inevitable return? Dust off your action figure collection, sharpen your detective skills, and practice saying, "I told you so" to your friends who doubted his return.
- How to cope with the fact that Torres is a real person with a life outside of Chicago PD? Accept it, embrace it, and move on. There are other characters to love.
- How to ensure Torres stays on the show? Write heartfelt letters to the producers, start a fan campaign, and hope for the best.
