Warning: This article contains spoilers for Blue Bloods Season 14 Episode 12. Although Blue Bloods Season 14, Episode 12 included a storyline that Jamie (Will Estes) found silly, and the incident may prove to be more important to the conclusion of his storyline than originally thought. CBS made the disappointing decision to cancel Blue Bloods despite its popularity, splitting the final season into two parts, with the last few episodes airing very soon. The writers have already begun prepping for the series finale, which will feature Jamie and Eddie (Vanessa Ray) discussing the possibility of having children.
Jamie and Eddie’s discussion was not continued, and they did not share any scenes from episode 12 except for Blue Bloods Reagan’s dinner. Instead, Jamie deals with the case of three clueless people who think someone from an online gambling company rigged a bet that caused them to lose money. The story is more light-hearted than Jamie’s typical cases, and the resolution is particularly bizarre. However, the final scene may have an impact on Jamie’s thoughts on becoming a father. Blue Bloods wraps things up.
Jamie’s Blue Bloods Season 14 Episode 12 sees Case working with misbehaving children.
The answer to this Blue Bloods mystery turns out to be the victims’ children using their accounts.
Jamie’s investigation into the three players’ statements takes an unexpected turn. Jamie calls the victims to confront the perpetrators, who turn out to be their teenage children. Instead of pressing charges, he advises the shocked fathers to “spend more time playing sports with your kids and less time betting on sports with them,” before bringing everyone home. It seems like a stupid ending to a stupid plot that started with the three players being too busy with their betting business to pay much attention to Jamie’s questions when he comes to take their statements.
However, the fathers’ reactions to their children’s actions suggest that they don’t take it any more seriously, adding to the sense that this plot is meant for comic relief. It’s unclear whether they take Jamie’s warnings seriously, as one father concludes that he needs to change the password his daughter found on a sticker and used to log into her account. So while Jamie’s advice suggests that he’s trying to help people even if they’re wasting their time on nonsense, it doesn’t seem to resonate, making the plot pointless.

While his story could hardly be called one of Blue Bloods’ best episodes, there may be a deeper purpose behind it, as Jamie and Eddie have recently discussed the possibility of having children. Eddie’s desire to have children began when she took care of a traumatized child whose mother was shot while social services searched for other relatives, but the child turned out to be sweet and well-behaved. On the flip side, in the teen-focused episode 12 of season 14, Jamie may realize how difficult parenting could be in the future.
Jamie was a cop at the beginning of Blue Bloods, but now that he’s thinking about fatherhood, the things he’s doing make him feel different.
Also, this story could alert Jamie to some of the dangers facing children in the digital age that he’ll need to consider when his kids grow up to use smartphone apps. Jamie was a cop at the beginning of Blue Bloods, but now that he’s thinking about fatherhood, the things he’s doing make him feel different. He’s unlikely to change his mind about having children, but he and Eddie may have to discuss some of these issues before they embark on their journey to parenthood, which could lead to an emotional storyline at the end of the series.
Set in a New York City police procedural, Blue Bloods follows the lives of the Irish-American Reagan family, who have a wealthy family history and now hold positions of power within the New York City Police Department.
