In January, Chicago Med showrunner Allen MacDonald told TV Insider that this season would include “The Book of Charles,” with “the whole episode locked into Charles’s point of view and he will be in every scene.” Now, on Wednesday, April 1, that episode, centered on Oliver Platt‘s character, is here.

In this next episode, NBC teases, “Dr. Charles grapples with his own mental health following a harrowing experience working the suicide prevention line.” His beginning to work on the prevention line as well as last season exploring Charles’ family history with suicide was the “set-up” for this arc, MacDonald says.
