“It’s like the modern plague,” Jamie tells his company.
“Except it’s worse,” detective Danny interjects. “Plague is a sickness that you catch. You don’t go out and say, ‘Hey, let’s score some plague tonight.’ “
The Reagans went deep over their meat and potatoes, going back and forth about the way kids should be educated about the dangers of taking drugs versus drinking and driving.
As the scene ends, Frank shares his words of wisdom: “When I think I’ve had a rough week, it’s not as rough as being the parent of a teenager.”
Expertly combining real-world issues with wit, the Blue Bloods scene has fans stoked for Friday’s episode five.

Continuing after Nancy’s death:
Some fans’ excitement is muddled by the disappointment every TV fan feels when their favorite character meets their death on the show.
Without Linda it’s not a family, and the only ones who are there are Reagan born.Bring Linda back and make the fans happy

In season 8’s debut episode, viewers learned that Danny’s wifeย Linda, played by Amy Carlson,ย died in a helicopter crashย shortly after surviving a house fire at the end of season seven.
I can hardly wait. I really like the show and cast. They were made to work with each other, because they play the roles so well and everything falls into place. Sorry to see Amy leave the show but opens a lot more story lines.

Carlsonย announced her exit from the drama with a heartfelt postย following the episode.
After watching the family dinner scene, some fans got emotional over the missing member of the Reagan family.
I will always miss linda?
