In the Chicago Med episode “We Hold These Truths,” while Natalie and Maggie witness a pickup truck plowing through a street fair, at the hospital chief of psychiatry Dr. Charles (Oliver Platt) receives a visit from his ex-wife Caroline Charles aka Cece. (Charles has been married and divorced three times.) Cece is the mother of his daughter Robin (Mekia Cox). Unfortunately, their reunion isn’t a happy one. Cece is at the hospital because her lymphoma is back and the chemo treatment she’s been receiving isn’t working.
Cece is portrayed by actress Paula Newsome. She’s known for her roles on Bill Hader’s HBO series Barry (Detective Janice Moss, see link above and photo below with co-star Henry Winkler), Transparent (Dr. Leona Gunderson), No Tomorrow (Tyra DeNeil Fields), Suburgatory (Tracy), NCIS (Jackie Vance), Women’s Murder Club (Claire Washburn), NYPD Blue (Tammy Carlyle), and in films including Little Miss Sunshine (Linda) and Guess Who (Darlene), among others. Chicago Med airs Wednesdays at 8 pm on NBC, right before Chicago Fire, which is followed by Chicago P.D.
I think we very much should just finally give Henry Winkler an Emmy for Barry, but Paula Newsome deserves a nomination too. pic.twitter.com/TrVKADWjcO
