1 year ago Hailey wanted Jay, and then coffee, and then waffles, and then to spend the day at the range with him. She didn’t get those things, but she did get an assurance that he wasn’t going anywhere and that he wanted to be with her too and my heart has yet to recover from it all❤️‍🩹 happy 8x11 day my upstead lovers!

what do u think are tracy’s weaknesses and strengths as an actress? i’m asking this cause i wanna try and have a better eye for this type of thing, i love tracy so much and i think that makes it very hard to evaluate her as an actress, for me without any technical knowledge she’s just amazing :)
I'm not sure I'm the best person to come to for a better eye 😂
Like singing, dancing, or any other performing art, I have no technical training. I can only base this on my own preferences and what I think worked vs. may not have worked as much.
In regards to Tracy, I think she's their best dramatic actor. All of the characters have been able to have big explosive moments before and they've all been been solid, but to me she is just so strong with the subtle emotional beats. It's in her eyes. They almost glaze over when she's shutting down (7x18 in Voight's office or 9x04 after the panic attack) or really change shape in a moment when she needs to look vulnerable (end of 5x18, 8x11, or 8x16). I just think her strength is in her subtley and the ease with which she can display or switch emotions in what could otherwise be easily over-acted moments. She's also a convincing crier, which helps.
That said, the times I have felt like I didn't love the delivery as much is when she has to be explosive mad. One scene that comes to mind is in 9x04. She returns from finding the bodies in the water and is yelling at the suspect in the interrogation room. Something about soda. She has a tendency to tighten her jaw and lips when she's delivering a really angry line- and sure, people tense up when they're mad. To me, that makes the words almost come out as stiff and growl-y (which I've also noticed in other CPD actors). I would want to see a looser delivery in angry lines, if that makes sense, to allow for more fluctuations in tone as the words come out. Maybe that would be ill advised, I don't know. But I'd want to see the difference.

8X11 DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!
First of all, major kudos to Tracy Spiridakos, the queen herself, for pulling this off and portraying Hailey the way she did. Her acting was beautiful and it really did the story so much justice!!
THAT OPENING SCENE THO!! I truly did not expect that! It was soooooo freaking cute and their interactions were so gentle and genuine! The "day off" reference made me die a little inside and all of this came from literally the first few moments of the show.
The way Jay was constantly there for Hailey showed the dynamic between them two. He obviously knew she felt overwhelmed at his 'I love you' earlier and knew how to support her, even while giving her space. He reigned her in when she was about to go off the rails and that's what I love.
We finally got a Upgess moment!! I always thought that Kim nd Hailey would have a string friendship because they were the only 2 women on a team full of men (or grown children excluding Voight). To see Kim be there for Hailey in her own way is amazing in its own right! That gentle touch showed so much care that Kim had for the other woman. Maybe their friendship just isn't so pronounced on the show, which is why this scene made my heart melt! I hope that shows Hailey that she is supported but her team too!
The scene with Voight and Hailey..... I think Voight knows that there's something going on between his two detectives and are just waiting for them to come clean. The was Voight was talking to Hailey tho.... He was being firm, yet trying to be understanding of how this case pulled at her heartstrings. "All the things that make you bad at the job are the same as what makes you good at it." - this line was so powerful to me.... And I think that this talk with her boss will help Hailey become more determine to be better at her job, knowing she has people like Jay and Hank to turn to. Also, Hank really treats his team like family and I felt like this scene shows how fatherly Voight is towards his team.
Of course, I'm on to the scene at Hailey's apartment. The was he was so soft with her when he replied her question of "you came?".... It already shows that he really loves her and isn't fazed. When she started opening up to him, his face was laced with so much emotion and Jesse Lee Soffer portrayed it beautifully. Hailey, pouring out her thoughts and explaining herself shows how much growth she's been through. It shows how much she trusts Jay and in a way she's showing her love for him too. She wants to be with him and have this relationship with him because (I'd like to think) it's the best thing that happened to her in a very long time. Yet, she doesn't know how to overcome that barrier that stems from her childhood experiences with intimacy and love.
Jay did not waiver one bit. He really accepted Hailey for herself, even parts of her that are broken and slightly more closed off. She was always there for him, grounding him and now he wants to do the same for her. It's really amazing to watch!! When Jay said that he wasn't going anywhere, a look of relief flashed across Hailey's face and it makes me think that a lot of people would have left her after she opened up, making her guard herself even more. Jay isn't going anywhere despite everything that happened and I think in her mind she knows she's found her soulmate. Yes, I'm bringing out that word cuz they are soulmates!
Hailey said "I love you so much" to Jay and my heart was breaking and recovering so fast I really had no idea what emotions I were feeling. Seeing her take that step is so beautiful!! Also, that HUG!! It was full of emotion. His large frame wrapped around her small one ahhhhhh... They really do love each other and trust each other. The way they both melted in each other's arms is so sweet I can't stop replaying it goshhhh!
The whole episode and storyline was written so we'll! I loved all the emotions and dynamics laced throughout and it's so beautiful to see the layers unfold as I watched the episode.
This episode is one of my favourites and I'm sure I'll be rewatching it over and over! I can't believe all the manifesting and hoping for our shop to sail worked! The writers have graced us with the beautiful gift of Upstead and I'm so grateful! Can’t wait to see where Upstead’s gonna go.... (pls get married and have kids) <3
I’m also very grateful for all my friends here on Tumblr, especially @mashleighh!!! Freaking out wth everyone really makes this so much cooler hahahaha love y’alls <3
❤️🥰💕🙏🥺💙😭🤯💜🥳

In season 5, we saw Hailey lift Jay up when he was in a dark place, because she cared and wanted them to succeed as partners.
Now, in season 8, we get to see Jay do the same for Hailey, because he loves her and wants them to succeed as a couple.
They're both strong people, stubborn almost to a fault, but they don't give up, especially on each other.

Did anyone else get major folklore “seven” vibes from this episode? Especially the scene when Hailey was talking about her childhood home with Becca’s friend she realized Becca and her BFF would use the flashlights to communicate when Becca needed to escape her abuse? That scene was so emotional and the juxtaposition between Becca’s bare bedroom and her friend’s beautiful girly pre teen room made my heart hurt.

I've been meaning to tell you, I think your house is haunted. Your dad is always mad and that must be why. I think you should come live with me and we can be pirates, then you won't have to cry or hide in the closet...💕

Do you have a favorite PD episode?
MEAN. I can't give you one single episode, dear anon. I can give you one from every season, which you did not ask for, but will get anyway!
Season 1: 8:30 PM (1x12) it's the crossover with Fire with the explosion at the hospital. The big spectacle episode- good stuff!
Season 2: A Number of Rats (2x20) WOW season 2 is Voight-heavy. I did enjoy the Yates stuff, though.
Season 3: The Cases that Need to be Solved (3x16) this is a tough episode to watch, but Jon Seda is so solid in this hour.
Season 4: A Shot Heard Around the World (4x08) one of the only true ensemble episodes
Season 5: Ghosts (5x18) Hailey is my favorite, Tracy is my favorite. No notes.
Season 6: Good Men (6x15) my hardest choice! This is the episode that pulled me back into CPD after I dropped it mid-season 4. The guest actor for Aiden is incredible and the "follow you blind" scene is iconic.
Season 7: I Was Here (7x13) admittedly Kim and Adam episodes don't typically draw me in but this one is painful and so, so good.
Season 8: Signs of Violence (8x11) see explanation for season 5.
Season 9: In the Dark (9x04) see explanations for season 5 and 8.
Peace!
