What would you do if, after 20+ years of not figuring out who your father was, you discovered you have been a Reagan?
The reply to that query should await Blue Bloods Season 11, assuming the collection will get renewed.
Blue Bloods Season 10 Episode 19 set us up properly for that potential subsequent season, launched the grandson Frank by no means knew he had, and gave us a touch about Jamie and Eddie’s future. THIS is how a season finale ought to go.
The presence of Joe Reagan’s ghost was by no means so keenly felt because it was throughout this episode.
Not solely did Frank be taught that Joe had a son, however Danny additionally talked about Joe when he was attempting to speak Teddy down.
If this have been Days of Our Lives, Joe would miraculously flip as much as be alive. However since Blue Bloods is a extra life like present, we acquired the following smartest thing: Joe’s son.
Erin: What’s he like?
Frank: What’s he like? I simply met the man and he is my grandson.
Like Frank, I am unsure what to make out of the youthful Joe but.
He actually appears to have inherited the Reagan love of police work. Frank and Sid had talked about how younger the man was to be working the job he was working, however that did not put together me adequately for simply how younger he regarded.
I did not see a lot of Danny in him (though Frank did), however his character jogged my memory of Jamie.
Both method, to this point, he looks as if he’ll match proper in, however it could possibly’t be as simple because it seems to be.
For one factor, there’s Joe’s mom.
She made it clear that transferring Joe to a safer project was a situation of Frank being allowed to get to know his grandson.
Joe is an grownup. He wished that project, and he desires a relationship along with his father’s household. However his mother is not going to be pleased with both of these decisions, and that is likely to be a big supply of battle.
Plus, it is acquired to be extra of a shock for each Joe and the Reagans studying abruptly that they are associated. The opposite Reagans grew up with Joe’s father, however Joe Senior’s loss of life continues to be a supply of ache for them.
Joe could also be overly desperate to study his dad, and his new household might each need to oblige however discover it tough to take action.
And Joe himself might not fairly know what his place within the Reagan household is or how this modifications issues.
If he ever will get right into a battle on the job that Frank has to deal with, Frank’s by-the-book response is likely to be extra complicated for him than for the opposite Reagans, who all grew up with Frank and know what he is like.
The attention-grabbing factor about this episode was that Joe’s existence wasn’t the one massive change for the household.
It appears to be like like Jamie and Eddie will both be attempting for a child quickly or attempting to undertake one, and that brings up the query of how they may navigate that change to their household similtaneously they’re attending to know Joe.
Eddie’s attachment to the infant they discovered outdoors the precinct was predictable, however the decision was not.
Eddie: I believed you have been gonna inform me to step again.
Jamie: Yeah, nicely, I’ve discovered that for those who’re on the sting of the cliff about to leap off, I can not inform you to take a step again. My finest wager is to take your hand and bounce with you.
Jamie had already alluded to the potential for adopting that child, and Eddie had already given him a reputation, so it appeared apparent that that is the place we have been headed.
I believed this was going to finish up the best way issues did on Law & Order: SVU when Benson saved going to court docket to examine on child Noah and ultimately agreed to undertake him.
As an alternative, Eddie was heartbroken to lose custody of the infant, despite the fact that she was completely happy that he reunited along with his mom. Nicely performed Blue Bloods. I did not see that one coming.
This was the most effective post-wedding Jamko tales. Jamie and Eddie have been on the identical staff all through the hour, regardless of Jamie’s failed makes an attempt to cease Eddie from getting overly concerned within the case or overly connected to this child that she most definitely wasn’t going to get to maintain.
Jamie additionally helped stability Eddie’s protecting instincts in order that she did not scare the mom to loss of life after they confronted her. Thank goodness, as a result of it turned out the lady was extra in want of assist than she was of punishment.
What number of instances can we get to essentially make a distinction? More often than not we get known as out to a case when somebody is already raped or murdered or mugged. However this time, we would have the ability to change somebody’s life.
Eddie
Eddie wished to make a optimistic distinction by getting concerned with this case, and in a method, she was in a position to do exactly that, so hopefully, over time she’ll start to see it that method.
Danny and Baez’s case was the one run-of-the-mill story. I want that they’d labored alongside Erin and Anthony extra on this one for the reason that end result affected her workplace.
It was particularly bizarre that Erin misplaced her court docket movement for lack of proof seconds after Danny and Baez discovered proof that Gio’s girlfriend had tipped off Acosta that he was cooperating with the police.
I used to be anticipating Danny to run in with that proof and Erin to get on him for not telling her forward of time.
Erin: This workplace cannot be used on your private stuff.
Anthony: Yeah, nicely inform that to all the opposite Reagans.
Erin: That is totally different.
Anthony: Yeah, trigger they assume they will simply waltz in right here and do no matter they need trigger they’re your loved ones.
Erin: That is not what I meant.
Anthony: Yeah, nicely, message obtained.
Additionally, since Anthony felt Erin performed favorites along with her household, he and Danny would in all probability have been much more antagonistic than normal towards one another in the event that they needed to work collectively.
And did anybody else consider the apology letter that Anthony urged ADA Wilson ship on Blue Bloods Season 10 Episode 18 when Erin introduced Anthony the report he was attempting to entry?
