With the holidays here, the guys are trying to take some
time off. While doing some Christmas shopping, Winston proposes to Tiyah. The
happy couple goes back to the station and tells the gang the good news when the
spirit of a young boy appears and asks for help. Just as quickly as he appears,
he is grabbed by a hand of a ghost. The guys suit up and try to locate where
the spirit was taken. When they arrive, Winston heads first to the home and
gets trapped behind a spectral wall. He discovers that the spirit behind this
is his old drill instructor – Staff Sergeant Adams. Can Winston defeat him,
save the boy spirit and get back to his fiancée for their trip to Connecticut?
This was a cool little story by Burnham that gives Winston
Zeddemore a chance to be in the spotlight. I like Schoening’s art as well. You see the likeness of the actors, but he
goes more into an animated feel instead of being more photo-realistic. We may never get another movie with these
characters, but we have this series, and that’s not a bad thing.
