Will Trent’s Erika Christensen Weighs In on Angie’s ‘Lapse in Judgment’ With Crystal — and Why She Feels ‘Oddly Hopeful’ Heading Into Season 3

Before the decision, Will imagines a life where he doesn’t arrest Angie—marriage, children, and growing old together.

She believes that Will and Angie are “fated for each other,” and the show could explore their complex relationship further, even if the road ahead is difficult.
