In tonight’s Blue Bloods episode, there’s a rule about paying their fees at storage facilities. The second the money stops was the moment the owner sold the unit sight unseen. It was usually bought by treasure hunters. People that thought there might be hidden treasures in one of the units.
The man that bought the unit tonight was hoping for gold when he found a skeleton instead. He called the cops. Detectives Danny Reagan and Maria Baez responded. The skeleton was very decomposed. They couldn’t take fingerprints. The DNA wasn’t in the system. They were given a cold case and were having a hard time identifying the victim. It was the worst.
Yet, it still wasn’t as bad as Erin’s day. Erin tried to make a plea deal with a horrible neighbor. Don Mathers was a horrible neighbor. He was also a former cop.
He’s been harassing his neighbor for months about a fence and it resulted in Mathers putting his neighbor in a chokehold. Those are now illegal.
They didn’t always used to be. Mathers was claiming that he thought the chokeholds were fine because he used it on the job. Mathers and his lawyer were set to take a plea deal when they came up with a chief witness that would swing things in their favor. It was Henry Reagan.
Henry, affectionally knows as Grandpa, was willing to face Erin during a trial to back Mathers. He was prepared to testify that Mathers thought it was completely legal to put someone in a chokehold.
Erin was so annoyed with him that she confronted him. She went to the house. She found him alone. She was ready to tell him off. Henry first had to warn her that he was a witness and she couldn’t commit witness tampering. Erin replied that everything she says was as his granddaughter. And not as an ADA.
Erin then called her grandfather an old fool. She said Mathers was using him as a pawn. She couldn’t go against her own grandfather in open court and Mathers was going to use that to his advantage.
Anyways, he didn’t like defense attorneys. He’s always hated them and there were other strange things. It didn’t make even sense why Henry was pushing back on this one policy. He hasn’t been the Police Commissioner in decades. He couldn’t go against policy that his own son stood by. Frank was having enough issues as it is.
Frank was trying to mediate a dispute between the Fire Commissioner and the Mayor. The Mayor skipped a firefighter’s funeral. He then went to a rally and the rally was basically why the firefighter died. The firefighter died because out of control fire at a shelter. The city was housing immigrants in overcrowded spaces.
Those places were powder kegs. From the overused plugs to people trying to sneakily smoke. The Mayor going to the rally over the funeral was a step too far for Veronica Radley. She got into a very public disagreement with the Mayor. They were now trading barbs through the media.
Frank tried to make peace between. He’s had his own issues with the Mayor. He knew were Veronica Radly was coming from and he agreed with her points when he spoke with her.
It was the Mayor that refused to see where he went wrong. He wasn’t willing to negotiate policy. He was ignoring how understaffed the firehouses were because of the pay cuts. The city stood behind Radley. They agreed she was doing a great job. Her firefighters all got sick and they were refusing to work until the Mayor agreed to change his policies.
The Mayor finally had enough. He was going to fire Radley. He asked her to come to his office and it was an open secret that he planned on firing her. Frank felt bad about that. He felt he made things worse by trying to mediate between the two. Radly had asked him if he would have done anything differently than she did when the Mayor skipped an officer’s funeral.
Frank couldn’t answer that question because he would have done the same thing. He reassured Radly that she was right and they both forgot it was different for a woman to criticize her boss. Frank could get away with it. She couldn’t.
Danny’s case though took off. They identified the victim as Beverly Chase. She was complaining about a man harassing her and following her everywhere. The man was Grady Simms.
He has a history of that. He was also arrested once for stalking. Grady suffered brain damage after getting hit by a car at six. He doesn’t really understand he’s wrong for harassing these women. His mother had tried to cover for what he did. She said her son has a child’s mind and that he wasn’t a danger to anyone.
The cops checked Grady’s several storage units. They found the body of two other bodies. A serial killer was responsible and Grady wasn’t that killer. It was his mom.
She thought she was protecting him by getting rid of the women before Grady gets arrested again for stalking them. She killed three women. She would have killed more with time. Her blood was only in the system because she attacked a woman for yelling Grady. Grady had spilled soda on the woman. The woman began shouting and Marie Simms hurt her for it.
Marie was going to spend the rest of her life in prison. Her poor son was at a loss without her. Danny kept trying to explain how Marie had to go away for good and Grady couldn’t understand or remember.
The cops had to bring in Child Protection Services to handle the situation. As for Grandpa, he didn’t back up Mathers on the stand. Erin had to step down from the case. She gave the case to another ADA. There was now no chance that Erin and Grandpa’s relationship was going to be used against them. And so Henry spoke freely.
Henry called Mathers a bad cop. He said the policy was bad. Its why Frank got rid of it. Mathers ignored that because he’s a crappy person. But Frank tried to mediate one last time.
He met with Radley and the Mayor. He treated them like kids and they both hated it. If nothing else, they can agree that Frank was treating them like bratty kids and that reminded them to act like adults. They were going to work out the issues. Radley wasn’t going to be fired for now.
Edie also caught a strange case. She arrested a guy that said he has to donate his kidney. She and her partner thought that was a lie. Until a former detective broke him out of the holding cell.
Nico really was going to donate a kidney. He was giving the kidney to his girlfriend and her former cop of a dad didn’t want anything getting in the way of that. Edie called in IAB. It’s up to them how they handle it. And Edie herself made sure that Nico was there to donate the kidney.
Nico was a little shy about all the trouble he’s in and so Edie reminded him how much he loves his girlfriend.
THE END!
