Spoiler alert: The following article contains spoilers from the Chicago Med season 10 finale.Chicago Med’s season 10 finale came with an unexpected reveal following the discovery that Hannah was pregnant in the second last episode of the season. In the moments leading up to the credits, Hannah, played by Jessy Schram, knocks on Dean’s door (Steven Weber) and tells him they need to talk. The episode ends on a cliffhanger but heavily hints at Dean being the father. While the couple may be a surprising pair, there is more to them than meets the eye throughoutChicago Medseason 10.
In an interview withDeadline,Weber revealed that there were breadcrumbs placed throughout season 10 that hinted at Archer being the father of Hannah’s baby. The pair had long had a will-they-won’t-they pairing that seemed to go nowhere, but Weber has revealed that there is more to their story than what has been shown on-screen, with the biggest hints between Hannah and Archer occurring in “The Book of Archer.” See Weber’s full comments about season 10’s finale below:
I think if you follow the breadcrumbs, you’ll see that it’s most likely that Archer is the father. A few episodes back, I think it was in “The Book of Archer,” he and Hannah have an equally ambiguous encounter. If you relax for a second, it makes sense that they might have hooked up or connected in some way that is interesting and challenging. There’s nothing 100% definitive here, but you should put your money on Dean.
What Hannah And Archer’s Pairing Means For Chicago Med
The Couple’s Dynamics Will Change In Chicago Med Season 11
Although Hannah and Archer have long had a certain chemistry between them, the confirmation that they’d slept together, culminating in Hannah’s pregnancy, is shocking, to say the least. For one thing,the pair has never actually confessed their feelings for one another, which adds a layer of questions around the pregnancy. It is already complicated enough to hook up with a coworker, but if Archer turns out to be the father of Hannah’s baby, that long-term commitment, whether it turns into something romantic or remains ultimately platonic, will add even more tension between them.
In addition, the pair’s conversation, which might happen off-screen between the season 10 finale and theChicago Medseason 11premiere, will likely change the pair’s relationship forever. Whatever happens between them, whether they decide to co-parent, or whether Archer is even the father,the pair’s dynamic will experience significant changesin the next seasons.
Our Take On Hannah And Archer’s Pairing
Hannah And Archer Have A Lot Of Obstacles
An official relationship betweenChicago Med’s Hannah and Archercould be good, but the couple has too many obstacles in the way that make the foundation of their relationship unstable. For one thing,the couple most likely hooked up in “The Book of Archer,“after Hannah comforts Archer when he discovers that his ex-wife passed away. If that is the case, the pair did not get intimate out of love, but for comfort, which raises some questions about the couple’s mindset when they decided to do so.
Archer fathering a child in his mid-60s also raises some questions. He has an unstable relationship with his adult son, and while a new baby could give him a second chance at parenting, he might not want to take that risk, especially with a woman who he may just see as a good friend and colleague. All in all, the pair has many obstacles to overcome, which might make any potential co-parenting relationship harder than it needs to be inChicago Med.
