Some anxious moments
bkoganbing4 December 2017
A detective in Donnie Wahlberg's precinct is shot and the whole Reagan family has a few anxious moments until they learn it's not him. It is a detective undercover with a drug operation and it looks like his cover was blown.

It also looks like he had a secret life that had maybe peripherally to do with the job. He had a second family and that presents a problem for Tom Selleck to deal with a married and common law widow, the second who is pregnant. It also is much fodder for the Reagan Sunday dinner as everyone takes a different position.

The secondary plot involves Bridget Moynahan being panhandled by a kid she recognizes from her daughter's school. It looks very much like Gabriel Rush is on the street and looking to score some drugs. The twist on his story is most interesting.

Warning: Spoilers
This episode again proves that police are people too and suffer from the human frailties. When an undercover officer is killed, it is discovered that besides having a wife and two daughters, he had had another child with another woman.

How the officer's undercover was blown was tragically ironic as depicted.

The sidebar story of a youth appearing to go downhill into the world of drugs at age 16 is exemplary. Who the real drug addict is will surprise you, but this is what life is all about.

Frank shows his usual composure in the first situation described. Danny is his usual tough self in apprehending the killer of the officer.
