List of episodes

The fourth season of Blue Bloods, a police procedural drama series created by Robin Green and Mitchell Burgess, premiered on CBS September 27, 2013. Leonard Goldberg serves as executive producer.

According to TV by the Numbers, CBS was all but guaranteed to commit to a fourth season.[1] This is because as a CBS Television Studios production, CBS has a financial incentive to produce at least the minimum number of episodes needed for stripped syndication.[1] On March 27, 2013, CBS made it official by renewing Blue Bloods for a fourth season.[2]

681"Unwritten Rules"David M. BarrettIan BiedermanSeptember 27, 2013 (2013-09-27)40111.70[5]
When a robber flees after a jewelry store heist, Jamie and his newly assigned partner Eddie Janko (Vanessa Ray) arrive on the scene just in time to hear a gunshot that severely wounds officer Lori Collins. Shortly afterwards, Collins succumbs to her injuries. The suspect escapes through a nearby park. Danny and Maria are assigned to the case, and Danny is certain that a man named Angelo Reed (Malcolm Goodwin) who was witnessed at both the jewelry store and in the park, is the shooter. When an elderly eyewitness struggles to identify Angelo in a photo lineup, Danny "helps" her, and she later picks him out of a live lineup. Erin is skeptical that the woman’s testimony will survive cross-examination in court, and is forced to let Angelo go. This gets her in hot water with her family, her boss and most of the NYPD rank-and-file. Officers thus stage a "blue flu" situation by refusing to appear at other court cases involving Erin’s office, forcing Frank to order an end to the blue flu. In the end, Erin and Danny join forces to stage a situation wherein Angelo can confess and get a deal for only seven years in prison. They then trick him into declining the deal (with Angelo unaware that his confession is still binding), and they book him for Murder One.

Frank begins making random visits to officers' beats and precinct houses as a way to get closer to his patrols, and learns that a precinct lieutenant nearing his retirement has been a consistent no-show at work. However, the lieutenant has a good reason; his wife is on her deathbed suffering from ALS, and he has been working another job so he could pay her medical bills and stay home with her more often. Elsewhere, Jamie and Eddie are frustrated by having to respond to multiple calls from a woman (Ali Wentworth), who complains that a male tenant in a building across her street frequently exercises with no clothes on and his blinds open. Having had enough after a while, Jamie brings the man into her apartment, and the two have drinks, to his and Eddie's shock and amusement.

A murder in a park is witnessed by a 13-year-old boy, and the victim is his father. The shooter he describes turns out to be a man named Raoul Delgado (Armando Riesco), who was convicted of murder five years prior but completely disappeared without a trace. It turns out Delgado has been working as an informant for the Department of Homeland Security, whose representatives ask Frank to tell the NYPD to back off. Erin lets Danny know he can still pursue a murderer in his jurisdiction, and he brings in Delgado. At his arraignment, with Erin's ex-husband Jack representing him, Delgado takes a security officer's gun, locks down the courtroom, and holds several people hostage. Frank is informed of the situation while going up against Reverend Darnell Potter (Ato Essandoh) on a radio broadcast about the use of city security cameras. In a heated struggle, he shoots Erin in the shoulder, then makes his demands and says he will only talk to Danny. Danny is able to convince Delgado that he will have free passage to the airport to board a plane to the Dominican Republic, and he is able to lure him outside, but Delgado is holding a gun to an injured Erin. An old Reagan family secret helps Danny free Erin and shoot her captor. Jack later visits Erin with flowers and reveals he regrets never telling her how much she has meant to him, leading to a passionate kiss. Elsewhere, Jamie and Eddie respond to a car accident that injures a mother and her young son. The boy asks Jamie to accompany him to the hospital, and as a result, Jamie gets suspended after he disobeys a direct order from a new lieutenant, who wanted him to stay and prepare the accident report at the precinct.
