How am I ever going to let her of anywhere without me in this world, especially knowing what we know?ĭanny: By then we'll have a 24 hour detail on her and we'll put chips in her phone to track where she is. This is likely to be a difficult adjustment for her, but it'll be good for their careers and marriage.īaez: I'm not worried about childcare or sleepless nights. She wasn't with him when he was shot this time, so that argument doesn't quite hold water. Still, everyone's fear for Jamie was raw and realistic, and Eddie's panicked performance was so compelling I didn't care that it used that stupid trope of someone running into the operating room to cry over the patient.Įddie is still Jamie's emergency contact and will be notified quickly if anything happens. I knew Will Estes wasn't leaving the series. Jamie's shooting was one of the most dramatic subplots the series has had in a while. I'm right with him on that journey, and I hope he continues to stand up for what he believes in despite this incident. I loved Jamie declaring he was tired of being quiet about things that mattered, too. Maybe she couldn't do much, but she came off as not caring about the havoc the perp was continuing to wreak. Later, of course, that same perp would kill his own wife and shoot Jamie.Įrin's insistence that she could do nothing because it wasn't her case wasn't cutting it. The perp was set free on a ridiculous technicality, only to turn around and almost shoot Eddie. In reality, studies have shown that re-arrest and crime rates are no higher under new bail laws than before, but on Blue Bloods, violent criminals are constantly being released, only to commit new and worse crimes. This situation was analogous to the one that got Jamie shot: bail reform.
: Maybe I don't want to be the quiet one anymore.Jamie: Why? Because I'm the quiet one who stands idly by and says nothing while the justice system is falling apart? Maybe I don't want to be the quiet one anymore. Jamie: What's the point of arresting anyone if they're just going to go back out on the street to commit more crimes? This place is becoming a revolving door for these criminals!Įrin: I expect this of Danny, not of you. Police cowering away from enforcing laws, especially outside their own house, is a poor precedent to set. On the other, these cops' fears were causing them to allow a biker gang to intimidate them right outside their own precinct.įrank needs to try to brainstorm solutions with his team. On the one hand, it's essential for cops not to use their weapons as their first line of defense.
