Natural Born Storyteller[]
The first time we see Hollister was when Kevin Atwater, Alvin Olinsky and Jay Halstead go to his garage to search Woodhull's car, Hollister covers it up, hinting that Woodhull was the one who killed Jeremy Dolan to throw them off.
Later, Hollister would continue his revenge, kidnapping Damien Boyd's son Conner while coming home from school. The cops later realize Hollister was the one who used Woodhull's car while he was in his shop to drop off Jeremy's body in another residential area, Hollister would park his car.
Outside a festival, Kim Burgess finds Conner's cap inside the car and when she turned around, she could see how Hollister had Conner, Kurt barely seeing Burgess and Roman runs out, also taking out his gun and opening fire while taking his captive. Finally, he would be surrounded, pointing a gun at Conner in the standoff. Thinking he can be reasoned with, Det. Antonio Dawson tries to negotiate with him, but Hollister wanted to speak with Boyd and confront him. However, Antonio tells him that Boyd only participated in covering up the crime not the killing itself, meaning he had partial innocence. Although shocked, Hollister maintains his stance by declaring his son was the only good thing he had and those involved took him in a horrible way and needed to pay. Dawson states killing Boyd's son was not going to bring his son back, Hollister understands and lets Conner leave with Dawson, then Hollister points his gun at Antonio and Conner, but before he can do anything, Jay Halstead shoots him, killing Hollister.
Personality[]
It can be presumed that Kurt Hollister was a decent man but after the death of his son, that changed. Hollister would become violent and quick to anger, being quick to start fights. After learning the identities of those involved in his son's death Hollister would be overwhelmed by the feeling of vengeance. Hollister would not only target the people directly responsible but also those closest like what he did to Jeremy Dolan a little boy who had nothing to do with what his father Richard Dolan. However, Hollister did seem to have a level of compassion when he speared Conner Boyd's life, but even after that he still aimed his gun at the boy and police.
