Paramount+’s SEAL Team closed out Season 6 with a daring escape, a sorrowful go to to Clay’s grave, a little bit of Bulkhead revelry, after which a medal ceremony that teed up one wild twist.
Picking up proper the place final week left off, with Bravo’s exfil downed by a rocket and the group stranded on a bombed-out road with tangoes arriving, Jason & Co. shortly labored the issue. With Ray and Brock as overwatch/snipers, Jay and Omar headed to the downed copter, per orders, whereas Sonny and Trent got down to safe a automobile. At the copter, Jay and Omar discovered one pilot OK, and the opposite badly wounded however respiration. Things obtained very intense when Sonny and Trent discovered themselves pinned down simply ft away from a crowd of baddies, and although Sonny (not himself, within the wake of the Clay information) practically went rogue to select a combat he (and sure others) absolutely wouldn’t win, Ray talked him down. And when a lot of the baddies cleared out, Bravo cleared the remainder of the enjoying subject and united on the chopper. There, with the feminine pilot in pressing want of care, Sonny whopped out a backup med package he began packing beneath his vest ever since Clay nearly died in Mali.
Bravo didn’t make it again to the States in time for Clay’s funeral, so that they as an alternative gathered at his gravestone, the place Ray looped in everybody on the circumstances surrounding Clay’s demise. (“What’s that vet going to do with the years that Clay won’t get?” requested Sonny; stated Ray, “I hope he makes the most of them.”) The group let Sonny have a second alone with Clay, the place he recalled “all those times you swim buddy’d me and I left you vulnerable to the sharks.” Sonny then stated he would make good on the promise he made after Clay was wounded in Mali: “I’m going to look out for Stella and Brian, don’t you worry about them.” Stella herself then arrived at Sonny’s facet, and defined that the funeral couldn’t be delayed since Command couldn’t say how lengthy or brief Bravo can be. Sonny invited Stella to a sendoff they had been having on the Bulkhead, however she admitted she wasn’t able to face all these reminiscences simply but.
At stated Bulkhead gathering, Mandy met Omar, and Clay’s dad Ash jabbed Jason a bit about “having a memorial today” for his son, however tomorrow Jason will get the Navy Cross for saving Clay’s life. “How’s that for irony?” But Jason made clear he too feels the state of affairs is “bulls–t,” the lads cooled off, and Clay’s picture was held on the wall close to Swanny’s, the place Ash famous that Bravo gave Clay the household and help he couldn’t.
Elsewhere on the Bulkhead: When Lisa arrived, she fended off Sonny’s newest jag about her not doing proper by Bravo by relaying the intel she actually simply obtained: Mali went sideways as a result of the battle house commander, Col. Decker, had failed to alter the comms channels as steadily as he ought to, so SGS had been listening in and knew that Bravo was coming. And with Decker about to be upped to brigadier basic, the “oops” was being swept beneath the rug. Sonny sought his personal small little bit of justice later, although, by discovering Decker in a packie parking zone after which laying him out with one punch. “You suck at security, Colonel. At least no one died this time.”
The subsequent day was Jason’s Navy Cross ceremony, the place Stella waved off the honoree’s misgivings. (*6*) she stated. “I never took a second of that time for granted, and I’m here to see you honored for giving it to us.” (As my eyes effectively up an umpteenth time, simply recapping that trade.) Blackburn in the meantime knowledgeable Davis that Decker had been assaulted the night time earlier than by somebody who knew him, and if the attacker was navy, there can be hell to pay. Lisa then went to take a seat with Sonny, noting his bruised knuckles — and took his hand, smiling.
Blackburn made a swell speech about Jason’s heroics, then invited the Navy Cross recipient to say a number of phrases. And phrases he did say!
Jason admitted that Clay would have by no means been in that ambush if he hadn’t made a degree of becoming a member of the op with a view to control his TBI-impaired group chief. So whereas Clay was watching his group’s again, “I was watching my own back, worried that command would discover what this war had done to my head,” Jason advised the gang. “I hid my brain injury; Clay Spenser paid the ultimate price for it.” Jay famous how Clay as soon as tried to combat the nice combat in opposition to TBI suppression however was advised to face down. “So today, I’m taking up that fight for him, because this war machine has to stop ignoring the problem and start protecting the protectors.”
A montage that adopted Jason’s declaration tricked us into considering that issues had gone badly for everybody afterward. We noticed Stella take down a photograph of Clay with Bravo… Ray eliminated the signage for his or her vet middle from the arrival space… and Jason, on the seashore with Cerberus, was seen racing towards and diving into the ocean… and never surfacing.
But then we noticed what was actually happening, as Stella re-hung the Bravo picture in Brian’s nursery, to observe over him… Ray changed the signal with one which rechristened his and Naima’s facility Spenser House (sob!)… and Jason emerged from the water.
We then jumped to a gathering room, the place Jason was being referred to as on the carpet by Blackburn and different superiors for what he disclosed in public. “You created one hell of a mess, and left us no choice but to stand you down,” Blackburn introduced. Ray interrupted the proceedings to “amend” his character witness assertion by revealing that he has been struggling PTS since his kidnapping. And simply as Blackburn dismissed Ray’s gesture and what level he thought it might show, EVVVVERYBODY filed into the room — Sonny, Brock, Trent, Omar and two dozen different operators, every recounting what impairs them. Near-constant complications. Tinnitus. Breacher syndrome. The incapacity to sleep. Blurry imaginative and prescient. Memory lapses. You identify it.
“Thanks, brother,” Jason stated to Ray beside him. Ray scoffed, (*10*)
