Romance Would Only Hinder Will & Angie’s Working Relationship

Will and Angie’s relationship has been at the forefront of Will Trent since the pilot, but in season 3, it’s evident why they don’t work well together as a couple and why they should see other people. The two main Will Trent characters have known each other since they were kids. They grew up in the foster care system alongside one another, meaning they know just about everything there is to know about one another. Despite their closeness and history, the police procedural series has proven why Will and Angie’s relationship shouldn’t be romantic throughout its three seasons.

Will and Angie’s love story began when they were teenagers. Due to their circumstances, their friendship growing into something more was inevitable. About two decades later, though, the state of Will and Angie’s on-and-off relationship is simply toxic and frankly exhausting to watch. Will arresting Angie at the end of Will Trent season 2’s finale was seemingly the one thing they needed to finally move on from one another. However, that doesn’t mean they can’t remain friends and great co-workers, as witnessed in Will Trent season 3, episode 7, “Mariachi Shelly’s Frankenstein.”

The Former Couple Saves The Day

Picking up where the previous hour left off, Will Trent season 3, episode 7 concludes John Shelley’s story, with the Atlanta Police Department and Georgia Bureau of Investigation working together to exonerate him of his crimes. The characters get trapped in the building with the real killer when the power goes out. Part of the team helps to save Caroline, Amanda’s assistant, who the murderer stabs and leaves for dead. Meanwhile, Will and Angie team up to uncover the perpetrator’s identity and find him before he kills anyone else (like Marion).
