In tonight’s Blue Bloods episode, Eddie ran into her old partner. She and Rachel Wettin rode together for a few years. It was a good partnership until the latter chose to change careers. Rachel realizes she wasn’t made to be a cop.
She chose to become a social worker instead. She’s been helping people with serious issues and one of them got violent with her. This troubled young man took her hostage.
Eddie was in the neighborhood with her new partner. They responded to the call. They arrived on the scene to find a mentally unwell person holding Rachel in a headlock. The cops had to talk fast before this man killed Rachel.
Eddie was able to talk him down. She convinced him he wasn’t in trouble. She even let him believe that the voices he was hearing were lying to him and so he let Rachel go.
Only to then get arrested by the police. The weird thing was Rachel wasn’t fighting the arrest. She agreed with the police that Jimmy was dangerous. Her odd behavior was what clued Eddie in. Eddie realized that Jimmy wouldn’t have gotten an upper hand on a former cop turned social worker unless she wanted it to be that way.
See Jimmy wasn’t just schizophrenic. He was also a drug addict. He does every drug imaginable as long as it wasn’t his medication and he was just kicked out of a group home.
He went back to his parents’ place however everyone knew he’d lash out at them. Rachel didn’t want his family to get hurt. She pushed Jimmy into getting violent with her. She knew that by doing so that he’d get help at a hospital. His parents couldn’t afford to get him treatment and this way the city pays for him to get better.
Eddie didn’t appreciate footing the city with a hospital bill. Or that Rachel pushed a disabled man into assault. She wanted to report Rachel and she was considering her next move.
She talked to her husband about a hypothetical situation. He told her to go through the official channels to get help for someone mentally ill. Eddie knew that wouldn’t work because the system was overloaded with people like Jimmy. There was no shortcut for him. Eddie was still thinking about it when her brother-in-law caught a rough case.
Danny and his partner were investigating the murder of a fellow detective. Detective Nuria Pena was found murdered on the street and naturally everyone wondered if a case she was investigating led to the murder. Danny and Baez dug through her case files. She was looking at a billionaire for fraud.
The cops tried to speak to the man. His wife didn’t know where he was. His kids had no clue what he was doing. The cops later found their suspect dead of an apparent suicide. Dave Krist killed himself with the same gun that killed Nuria.
Danny thought that was it. He closed the case. Then he heard that Dave died before Nuria. The Medical Examiner said Dave was dead long before the detective was killed. Danny was doing his best to unravel a high profile case when he got denied an honor. There was a charity called the Irish Society that honored Irish Servicemen and women with a medal of honor.
They’ve been doing so for centuries. Danny was set to receive this honor when the board rescinded it. They took it away because Danny was known for his temper. He lost it on perps several times. Many felt he only had a job after everything he did or accused of doing because his father was the police commissioner.
Frank tried to get the honor back for Danny. Danny had no clue he lost because they rescinded the honor before he was made aware. But Frank’s people knew about the honor. They also knew who was spearheading the decision to take away from Danny. It was Grace Edwards. She also comes from a cop family.
