SEAL Crew Season 7 Episode 9 Overview: The Sea And The Hills

Critic’s Score: 4.5 / 5.0

4.5

And right here we’re. SEAL Crew Season 7 Episode 9 is the penultimate hour, establishing all the things for the collection’s swan tune. Did it do the work?

I feel so.

It’s not simple to say goodbye to a crew as shut as Bravo. Wanting again on the collection as an entire, the Bravo crew has been and stays the principle attraction. They really feel like household.

However this household is coming to an finish, a minimum of in its present incarnation. What comes subsequent will exclude us, so all the things is driving on the SEAL Crew finale.

Please be aware that I’ve seen the finale, so this evaluation can be somewhat totally different. I’m not going to take a position, as I don’t wish to give something away. That’s the very last thing I’d need for these of us who’ve spent a lot time with Bravo.

SEAL Crew Season 7 Episode 9 started as we’d count on, with everybody questioning what within the hell Ross Curtis was doing proper in the midst of an Op.

He wasn’t on any sanctioned enterprise, and that struck the crew onerous.

Curtis and Nazario return years, it appears. No marvel he’s such a depressing POS. How are you going to work with the enemy after spending a lifetime defending your nation from them?

Sonny mentioned it finest. “By no means belief a ginger.” That’s one thing I can say as I used to be ginger for a lot of of my years! 🤣

As you’d count on, this hit Jason significantly onerous. This man, who they’d trusted, turned on the fentanyl faucet. Timing is all the things, and Jason’s response made it clear that the time was up for this explicit bunch of drug merchants.

He instructed us precisely who he’s — a person so contaminated by conflict, he can’t ever escape it.

— Jason Hayes

As we mentioned throughout SEAL Crew Season 7 Episode 8, they let this man get into their heads, particularly Jason. He noticed Curtis as a job mannequin, somebody who had been by way of the identical shit as he had. If he couldn’t get out, why may Jason?

And at last, like within the previous days, Ray acknowledged there was extra to Jason’s story and questioned if it was Curtis who was redecorating the within of his head. That pushed Jason to inform Ray in regards to the burn field and his first kill.

Jason must do what he envies Ray for doing — clear his kills and settle his money owed so he can stroll away wholesome. With one episode remaining on on his technique to kill a fellow frogman, it’s onerous to think about how he can accomplish that.

You recognize, I although dying on the battlefield was the worst factor that might occur to me. You recognize what A useless man don’t really feel no disgrace.

— Jason Hayes

One of the vital essential elements of the upcoming finale is concluding Jason’s story. Speaking about dying on the battlefield means that it may go both approach.

One other signal that the household is breaking apart comes from Stella. She and Sonny, whereas not collectively on display screen a lot throughout SEAL Crew Season 7, have remained in one another’s lives.

So, it was a shock to Sonny that she’d discovered a brand new route. She wanted to get out of her house with Clay, however Sonny promised Clay he would handle his household.

The timing was horrible for Sonny, who had simply “misplaced” Leanne and was now shedding Stella and Brian, too.

Nonetheless, he laid it on somewhat thick with Lisa about his trident. On the one hand, he says he’d take a bullet for her, however on the opposite, he reminds her that the one factor he’s clinging to is holding on to his trident.

Did he not acknowledge how antsy she was throughout the entire op? Her future is simply as essential to her as his is to him. And while you take a look at it from the male-female perspective, what she’s achieved trumps his Navy profession.

These two are going to maintain us guessing to the bitter finish.

After all, Sonny wasn’t the one one feeling ache on SEAL Crew Season 7 Episode 9.

Jason’s soon-to-be son-in-law tore his meniscus throughout coaching, which was only one other thing for Jason to fret about.

Being a household man so removed from dwelling isn’t simple, however as you become older and understand time isn’t neverending, it will get even tougher.

It’s taken an entire season to get right here, however SEAL Crew Season 7 Episode 9 carried on the custom of motion we craved, even when it did nearly get them “blasted off their asses.”

Omar: You do this shit once more, Jason, I’ll kill you myself, man.

Drew: All balls and no brains, Grasp Chief.

Jason: This GPS is gonna inform us one thing.

Ray: All balls and a few brains.

Sonny: That’s the Bravo One we all know and love.

Drew doesn’t dig the way in which Jason says one factor and does one other, however Jason is aware of he’s carrying Echo the identical approach Jason carries the names of 40 individuals he killed on his cellphone. Uh, is that wholesome?

Had that tidbit been revealed earlier than? I can’t think about that’s one thing Jason shares with many individuals. If the brass knew how tightly he held on to each kill, they could (rightfully) query his readiness for the job.

That sort of guilt can put on a gap proper into your soul, which is the essence of what Jason has been fighting the entire season.

For Ray’s final op, it was nonstop motion and pleasure with a wholesome dose of emotional turmoil. If he was frightened about saying goodbye, that is pretty much as good of a sendoff as he may have wished for, assuming all of them make it out alive.

Sonny: It’s a hell of a retirement occasion.

Ray: A cake would have been simply advantageous.

SEAL Crew Season 7 Episode 9 was filled with surprises.

Amidst all of this and in the midst of their final op as a full Bravo crew, Jason known as away to assassinate Curtis.

I suppose all assassins work alone, most likely for good cause. However it is a military-sanctioned hit, so it doesn’t make sense to ask Jason to go away his crew behind to do it.

Ray: This appears improper, us splittin’ up on our final op.

Jason: Come on, man. If Corridor and Oates couln’t stick collectively, what probability did we have now, Ray, proper?

Splitting up the crew on Ray’s final op was particularly merciless, however Jason chalked it as much as everybody seeing proper by way of him to the person he believes himself to be — a killer with a lot blood on his arms that taking out a fellow frogman wouldn’t be any pores and skin off of his nostril.

Look, Ray. That is who I’m. Perceive? That’s why they selected me to tug the set off. I would like you watchin’ your teammates again one final time, alright? Get ’em dwelling protected.

— Jason Hayes

However then, Drew pulled himself off the op to affix Jason. Is that sort of factor allowed? Jason had direct orders to take down Curtis. Would Drew be left holding the bag if the general public received wind of the assassination?

If he considered it, Drew didn’t care.

He tried so onerous to not care about Bravo, however he does now. He wasn’t going to ship Jason off into the darkish on his personal, unprotected. Not once more.

Truthfully, I actually didn’t like Drew’s addition or how his backstory unfolded, however this having Jason’s again factor and looking out as much as him as a pacesetter works. It’s precisely what they each wanted.

Drew can look as much as him when he thinks so little of himself. Jason trusts Drew when he feels he has let his crew down. All of it is smart now, even when it was robust going earlier within the season.

Holding with the custom of my favourite a part of this explosive collection, SEAL Crew Season 7 Episode 9 pale to black with out solutions.

Nazario was caught, so perhaps meaning the remainder of the crew will be a part of him and Drew to take out Curtis.

It could be robust for the reason that location was a tad distant, however seeing the advantages of all of them in it collectively for such a drastic would outweigh the negatives.

All in all, SEAL Crew Season 7 Episode 9 arrange the finale properly.

There have been only a few scratch-your-head moments. Feelings have been simply as intense because the motion, and the place they filmed felt true to the place they have been combating.

I could also be speaking with showrunner Spencer Hudnut earlier than the finale, in addition to David Boreanaz. Should you’ve received burning questions, let me find out about them within the feedback.

However greater than that, give me your finest guess about what’s forward for the finale. Did “The Sea And The Hills” do a very good job of setting it up?
