I’m going to bounce off this because I think we are a small majority that enjoyed the episode.

What happened with Roy is still affecting Hailey. It shook something in her core and rattled her so deeply, she went home and asked Jay to marry her. She was clinging to the one good thing in her life. And then they Roy stuff blew up in her face- she almost lost Jay- and she almost lost herself in the process. It tore her to shreds.

And then Jay has to save her because, duh, it’s Jay. He will do anything to protect her, even if it means doing things that are morally gray for a man who sees the world in black and white. Jay almost lost Hailey and he can’t imagine a world where he doesn’t have her, so they go get married.

They cling to each other in their darkest of times, when they are in the depths of the darkest valleys, because for them, the other one is it. There is no other person who will love and support the other like them.

Voight is a complicated man. He always has been and sadly, over the past ten years he hasn’t really changed. Nor has he shown that he wants to change, he just doesn’t want people to be like him. So he continues to make the bad choices, hurting those he cares about in the process, and they are left to clean up the mess.

Like you said, they went through something traumatic. And now they’re married. It’s the first time the lines are really blurred for them, having to bleed and seep into not only their work relationship but even their personal one. (Even if they don’t notice it yet.)

Jay has always even the one who holds the unit together when Voight spirals. And although he and Hailey are a team and a unified front, Jay and Hailey are also their own people. We heard her tell this to Jay in 9x07, “and just because I don’t back you when you’re challenging him doesn’t mean I’m taking his side. I make my own choices, Jay. No one controls me. Not him and not you. I made my own choices that night. I showed up there. But I’m still me. You’re acting like I’m not.”

They’re these two people in a marriage- who irrevocably love one another-but they are each their own person, too. Jay is doing what Jay does, trying to keep everyone together and afloat. He’s been doing it for ten years. They’re trying hard to keep their “personal lives private” as we know they like to do, but it’s different this time. Hailey is processing shooting Anna. Jay is trying to be there for his wife, his partner, his boss of a decade, and his unit.

Jay has complicated feelings for Voight. That’s not new, we’ve seen it and experienced it time and time again. Jay’s journey right now to me, is eerily paralleling what Hailey went through in 9A. They were supposed to be together forever and had to figure out, could they do this. They could do it- wanted to do it- and now they’re being faced with their in sorrow portion of their vows. They are two honorable people, who love their city, and their job. They take vows and the other person’s word like it’s a badge. They meant their vows, I don’t doubt it. And they’re not going to run because times get tough. But marriages are hard work. Figuring out how to be a husband and a partner is new to Jay. While also trying to be the man he is- and take care of everyone else in the unit too. Eventually, something is going to have to give. Hailey is already worried about him like Jay was about her early last season.

You’ve mentioned it before, but in 6x20 Trudy tells Hailey if Adam was the one, in order for it to work, one of them was going to have to leave intelligence and neither of them would do that. I think we’re going to see that come back around, because for Jay there is no one but Hailey. For Hailey, there’s no one but Jay. If losing himself, his morals, and who he is is going to cost him his career, his partnership, HIS MARRIAGE, then Jay is going to realize his choice is Hailey. She’s always been his choice. (It may just be a little bumpy to figure it out, but he’s not going to lose her.)

They have each other now- two people who probably had isolated and guarded themselves for so long, they never thought they’d experience this kind of earth shattering, life changing love. And now they have. And they’re not going to let that go- especially not at the cost of Hank Voight.

And Voight telling them they aren’t each others keepers, well they are and they aren’t. They’re partners, so at the end of the day they are individuals who make choices and they CANT protect each other from everything. BUT now they’re married- so they are each others keepers in that fashion. They haven’t really toggled this yet, but I have faith, they’re gonna make it.

'let it bleed’ thoughts.

it was a great episode. it was well written, it was well paced, it flowed nicely from 9.22 - i thought it was fantastic. 

there is far too much negativity surrounding everything going on right now

jay was not out of character, not even a little bit. we were starting to see the build to this in last seasons finale, and jay has always been the person to try to hold the glue of this unit together. that’s exactly what he did in last nights episode. 

hailey is a badass - but that’s not new

the three of them all just went through something traumatic, of course this is spilling over into their personal life. upstead has never had to face this before - work coming home with them in this fashion. they have to work through that and figure out what’s important to each other. 

you can see how deeply and how much they love each other and how much they are trying to cling on to that and not let work affect their marriage.

no, i still don’t care about voight or have any empathy for him but he’s there and we need to just accept that and work with what’s happening.

i think jay’s exit is being set up nicely and clearly. 

upstead is gonna be fine. i’m certain of it.
