Warning: This article contains spoilers for Blue Bloods Season 14, Episode 12.Although Blue Blood Season 14, Episode 12 included what seemed like a silly story for Jamie (Will Estes), this case may be more important to the closure of his story than it initially seemed.

The writers have already started to define the series’ ending, including Jamie and Eddie (Vanessa Ray) discussing the possibility of having a child.

So, although Jamie’s advice demonstrates that he tries to help the citizens even when they waste time on nonsense, it doesn’t seem to resonate, making the plot feel pointless.
