First appearing in the show's second season, Michelle Sovana (Madison McLaughlin) became a relatively prominent recurring character during Season 3 of "Chicago P.D." The series itself is an integral part of Dick Wolf's "One Chicago" universe, which is comprised of several Chicago-based first-responder procedurals, including "Chicago Med" and founding series "Chicago Fire."
Michelle is the daughter of troubled intelligence officer Alvin Olinsky (Elias Koteas), the result of an affair from several years past. Though she's initially a bit rough around the edges, Michelle and Alvin are able to mend some of their wounds before the latter tragically dies in prison.
The character was played by Madison McLaughlin, a young actor with well over a decade of experience in the entertainment industry. Before joining the cast of "Chicago P.D.," McLaughlin had made guest and co-starring appearances on "NCIS," "Teen Wolf," "Mad Men," and "Modern Family," and had even recurred on "Supernatural" and TNT's "Major Crimes." Her career didn't slow down much after departing the "One Chicago" universe, as she immediately joined another sprawling television franchise.
/In 2016, during the fourth season of the CW's superhero crime thriller "Arrow," the series introduced Madison McLaughlin as Evelyn Sharp. For eight seasons, "Arrow" loosely adapted the DC Comics lore of Green Arrow (aka Oliver Queen) to tell the story of a vigilante (Stephen Amell) trying to clean up his city one villain at a time. Featured in Season 4, Episode 19, "Canary Cry," Evelyn initially seemed to be yet another "villain of the week" — a one-off bad guy to fill time between bigger storylines. According to an interview with Comic Book Resources, however, McLaughlin states that there was always the possibility she would return.
"When we were filming the last day of ["Canary Cry"] last season, I was saying goodbye [to Amell]," she told CBR. "He was like, 'Oh, no. You're going to be back.'" Just as he said, the producers brought McLaughlin back for the entirety of Season 5, during which Evelyn became Green Arrow's protege, Artemis (a twist on the character made popular by "Young Justice"). As fans remember, Artemis' time on "Team Arrow" was particularly tense, ending with her eventual betrayal and likely demise.
McLaughlin made no further appearances after Season 5, Episode 23, "Lian Yu." Though her fate isn't explicitly shown in the aftermath of Oliver's battle against Prometheus, it is implied she perished in an explosion.The suitably ominous term "code black" can have several different meanings when declared within a hospital, ranging from the arrival of a quickly declining patient to an active bomb threat on the premises. In many cases, however, it can indicate that a hospital is dangerously short on resources — as was perpetually the case at physician Ryan McGarry's hospital, which was the subject of his 2013 documentary "Code Black."
The film was so compelling to TV executive Michael Seitzman that he chose to adapt it as a TV series bearing the same name. The fictional adaptation ran on CBS for three seasons before it was canceled halfway through 2018. Madison McLaughlin appeared on the show during its final season, sometime after she was presumed dead in the "Arrowverse.In Season 3, Episode 13, "The Business of Saving Lives" (also the series finale), McLaughlin guest-stars as Joy Chen. In the tradition of all great medical dramas, a plane crashes into the Angeles Memorial Hospital, wreaking chaos and causing all within to have various emotional epiphanies.
