Boston Blue delivered one of the most shocking moments yet in the midseason finale as Danny Reagan encountered a decision that would transform everything.
The seasoned NYPD detective found himself at a crossroads when Superintendent Saraha Silver gave him an official Boston Police Department badge.
What started as a temporary loan plan transformed into something far more long-lasting in Boston Blue. Danny's choice was not made easily, considering his family's four-generation experience with the NYPD. The episode builds chaos around this personal conflict while displaying a shocking crime that would seal his destiny.
When Jonah Silver found himself in major trouble, Danny realized where he truly needed to be. His last words in the episode carried weight as he would need that Boston badge after all. The creators have opened up about this crucial moment and what it translates to for the show's future.
The co-creator, Brandon Sonnier, said the following on the same.
"Through the course of the episode, we see Danny struggle with fully removing himself from the NYPD and joining BPD. That's a huge deal. He has been an NYPD cop his whole career. His family are all NYPD cops; he's got two commissioners that came before him. So, it's almost like we needed to orchestrate a family decision that he needed to make. And so we come to the end of this episode and we find Jonah Silver in this particular situation, we know that his family can't investigate this crime because it involves one of their own."
"But in order to take lead on this, as we've established, he's gotta take that badge. We wanted to really drive it from an emotional place, from a family place, more so even than the procedure of it. In the second half of the season, we do back into the procedure of him becoming a full Boston PD cop and walking away from the NYPD. But for this moment, it is an emotional decision that he comes to in order to be there for his found family, to be there for the Silvers."
The cliffhanger of Boston Blue that shifts the dynamics
The midseason finale of Boston Blue left audiences with burning questions about what actually went down in that room. Jonah was found with blood all over him and next to Flaherty's body. The question that came up was whether Flaherty pulled a weapon on the rookie cop or if the Irish mob killed him instead.
These unanswered questions will be addressed when the show comes back with its tenth episode in February next year. Sonnier confirmed that audiences will come back to the crime sequence moments after the final episode concludes. This marks the only instance this season where a case spans several episodes. The answers will reveal larger truths about Judge Silver's death and the agenda behind it.
What happens when Boston Blue comes back?
When Boston Blue returns in February next year, Jonah will have to deal with major consequences for his actions. The gun and the badge will be taken away. His sister Sarah pushes on these rules as superintendent. This creates the kind of family struggles that are wrapped in police investigations. Sean Reagan will play an important role as a witness before Danny arrived at the crime scene.
The young officer will go along with his father during the investigation, adding another layer to their connection. Meanwhile, the Red Saints criminal firm becomes a crucial target as Danny digs deeper into the complete truth behind Judge Ben Silver's death.
The future of Maria and Danny in Boston Blue
Some fans wondered if Danny's shifting to Boston from New York meant the end of his relationship with Detective Maria Baez back in New York. The creators confirmed that the relationship will continue, but in different circumstances.
