Blue Bloods Unveils Major Cliffhangers in Jamie and Eddie’s Undercover Operation
Blue Bloods Unveils Major Cliffhangers in Jamie and Eddie’s Undercover Operation
“Blue Bloods” does a solid job of tracking the Reagan family’s foibles, but some pieces of their shared lives slip through the cracks. One of those things happens to be the actual ceremony that took place when Jamie Reagan (Will Estes, who initially hated Jamie and Eddie getting together) marries Eddie Janko (Vanessa Ray of “As The World Turns”) several seasons back. The episode in question cuts off the romantic moment before audiences witness them getting to the nitty gritty of pledging their troth.
“The Heart of Saturday Night” does audiences a surprising favor. When the pair speak to their relatives about sharing their anniversary on a very unromantic sting, Henry Reagan (Len Cairou) encourages them to celebrate their fifth anniversary at the family dinner table by reciting their vows again. The funny thing is, this romantic moment is preceded by Erin Reagan (Bridget Moynahan) blurting out that the traditional fifth anniversary gift is wood. “So Jamie’s supposed to give her wood,” she adds. Naturally, the Reagans can’t resist making a joke and everyone cracks up laughing. “You up to the task?” razzes Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg) to his clearly embarrassed younger brother.
But from there, the moment takes an extremely romantic — if police metaphor-laden — turn.
Eddie and Jamie promptly recite their vows for their loving, gathered family. Unsurprisingly, it turns out their shared devotion is entirely sculpted from police-related metaphors.
They promise to always have each other’s backs. “If you fall behind, I’ll wait up,” Eddie vows. “I will be your scout, your night watchman, and your cavalry.”
“Your medic, your chaplain, and your army of two,” Jamie recites, after vowing to always earn his wife’s respect and loyalty.
“No retreat, no surrender,” they say together, holding hands, and then kiss as the rest of the family cheers them on. It’s clear that they’re overjoyed to be together, even if the drama’s showrunners were concerned about progressing Jamie and Eddie’s relationship further by giving them a child.
Amusingly, the show then follows up the couple’s declaration of eternal love by playing a snippet of “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)” by the Proclaimers, which is a recurring joke on another legendary CBS show — “How I Met Your Mother.” It looks like the Reagan family are going to enter the back half of their final season with a spring in their step — and jokes on their tongues.
