‘Blue Bloods’ season 6, episode 5 preview: The story for Donnie Wahlberg, cast in ‘Backstabbers’

On Friday night’s new episode of “Blue Bloods,” we had a story that was a whole lot about conflict between the Police and Fire Departments. basically, this was like the dark side of “Chicago Fire” and “Chicago PD,” set in a different city. So moving into the next city, we’re going to be talking about the police in conjunction with a different organization: The prison system. Danny is going to be getting involved with a prison break, but his personal connection to one of the inmates could make this story particularly interesting.

“Backstabbers” is the title for the upcoming episode of the show, and if you look at the synopsis below, we’ve got some further details all about what you can expect:

“Danny joins the hunt for two escaped convicts after hearing one of them is someone he helped to wrongfully imprison. Also, Gormley criticizes a plan from Trey Delgado (Esai Morales), an NYPD sergeant who Gormley thinks is having an affair with his wife.”

One of the unfortunate things about this show is that sometimes, you don’t really get to see too much of a carryover from one story to the next. On this particular occasion that is mostly depressing just because of the fact that we had some great stuff tonight with Jamie looking to help the mentally ill; it’d be nice to see what the next step was, and if Jamie was able to round up the perfect group to start making a little bit more progress in this field.
