In tonight’s Blue Bloods episode, someone murdered a deliveryman in cold blood. The poor man was out on his bicycle. His killer ran him over with their car and then shot twice before fleeing the scene. They wanted to make sure he was dead. The question was why. Why did Miguel Diaz deserve this? Detective Joe Hill brought his uncle Danny onto this case.
Joe has been investigating a cartel ring and their connection with a delivery service. The cartel was apparently trying to open a new market to sell fentanyl. Joe was still building his case against them. Danny was brought in because they needed a closer. It was supposed to be his day off and he cancelled it to help out his nephew.
Funnily enough that wasn’t the only time the family teamed up for a case tonight. Eddie was out on patrol with her partner when they heard about an armed gunman in the nearby area.
They were the first on the scene. They saw the gunman take the woman who owns the store hostage. Before they could intervene, the gunman was taken down by a good Samaritan. The good Samaritan is Jaylen Davis. He was at the police academy. He was second in his class. He took down a gunman and no one got hurt, but somehow he’s still in trouble because Jamie had to report him.
Jamie was the first senior officer on the scene. He hugged his wife. He made sure she was okay and then he got down to business. He reminded Eddie that Jaylen wasn’t technically a cop yet.
He shouldn’t have intervened. He could get thrown out of the academy for what he did. That was a worst case scenario and Jamie still has to report Jaylen’s actions. Jamie’s wife didn’t agree with him on those actions. Jamie decided to hold off on making a report while Eddie and Jaylen get checked out at the hospital for any injuries they might have sustained when they subdued the gunman. It bought them time.
Erin meanwhile found herself in some trouble. She was contacted by a man she put behind bars. The man’s name is Del Thompson. Erin put him away for marijuana possession.
Then the laws changed. Erin didn’t think Del deserved to have a record for something that was now legal and so she helped expunged his record. She did that because she thought she was helping him build a future. He instead took advantage of that. He was accused of robbing gang members knowing that they would never report him. And he reportedly used threats as well.
In any case, Del was now facing legal issues once more. He was going to stand trial. It wasn’t thought that the new DA was a reformer. She wanted to get rid of Del, and since she had already wiped his record, she essentially told Erin not to become involved. Erin was the only one who knew Del.
She contacted him to inquire about the situation. Del claimed to have run into some old pals. They had children running their drugs for them, he noticed. He was being tried because he threatened them with a weapon.
Del wasn’t a bad guy. He went to prison that first time because he was kid running dope for others. He didn’t wan that cycle to continue with kids now and so he tried to help them. Del was the man that Erin believed him to be. She got the charges against him dropped. She also faced an angry boss.
Crawford told Erin not to intervene in this case and she was ignored. Like she was usually ignored by Erin. Erin follows her own rules. Crawford couldn’t work with her and she couldn’t get rid of her. Erin has the highest close rates. And so the two women are just stuck together.
It’s similar to Frank being stranded with Sid. Sid was in an automobile accident. It became clear that Sid was no longer residing in the city. He resided in Duchess County, upstate. The distance from the city was eighty miles. In order to work in the city, police officers were required to reside there.
This also applies to Frank’s office. At the hospital, Frank paid Sid a visit. “Why did you move?” he inquired. Sid stated that he wanted to care for his mother in her last days because she was dying. He was opposed to placing her in a retirement community. He was also opposed to relocating her to Queens.
Sid wanted his mother’s final moments to be at the home where she raised her family. He wanted her to be comfortable and now it might cost him his job. Sid told Frank that he wasn’t going to move back to the city while his mother needed him. He left Frank in a horrible position.
Sure, there was a bill working his way through the state’s capital. It would allow officers to live outside of the city. It would allow Sid the chance to still take care of his mom and not get pushed out of a thirty year career. It also won’t matter if Frank chooses not to back the bill.
Frank was considering his options when Del did something brave/stupid. Del wanted to bring down the gangbangers using kids and so he went back to them.
He got them to admit to a crime. They knew he was trying to get evidence against him. So, they broke his phone. They didn’t know that he brought two phones just in case. Del has evidence against his former friends and he could be there at the trial if he survives the beating they gave him. Erin now has enough evidence to make a case against the men that hurt Del. And her boss was finally happy with her.
However, Eddie was unable to save Jaylen. The store owner he rescued was suing. According to her, Jaylen hurt her leg, which prevented her from going back to work. Don’t worry about her store failing. The husband and wife pair weren’t earning enough money to retire.
When the gunman’s predicament escalated, they were facing bankruptcy. To get paid, they were now suing the city. They might file a lawsuit and wreck Jaylen’s life. Jamie’s discovery that the woman had torn her ACL three months before to Jaylen’s tackle was fortunate.
The lawsuit was thrown out. Jaylen can still be a cop in Nassau County. Eddie called and she heard there were openings there. And so the kid will still do some good.
Uncle Danny also taught Joe some things. Danny managed to have them seen. In the process, he spared Joe’s butt and assisted them in protecting the witness.
Joe gained a lot of knowledge. It would have been the older Joe who would have taught his kid how to be a police officer if his father had lived. But now Joe had the support of his relatives. Frank decided not to fire Sid either. He intended to allow the bill to pass. For new cops, let alone seasoned police, the expense of living in New York City was too exorbitant.
THE END!
