Blue Bloods Fans Are Emotional Over The Home Videos In Season 13 Episode 13

Although "Past History" sees a killer revealed, as well as some issues for Erin Reagan (Bridget Moynahan), one of the most endearing parts of this episode involves Joe Hill and Frank Reagan. As mentioned earlier, Joe gets yelled at by Frank because of his actions, and Frank realizes that Joe has some unresolved issues with the Reagan family because Joe never had a chance to know his father, who was killed in the line of duty. As such, this episode of "Blue Bloods" features a scene when Frank and Joe watch home videos of Joe's father, and it seems like these moments were a big hit with fans of "Blue Bloods."

On Reddit, several users converged to discuss this episode, though many brought up the final scene between Frank and Joe involving the home video. u/Navitach highlighted the videos in the episode, writing, "The ending with the video was so touching. The actor that played young Joe Sr. looks so much like Joe Jr, you'd think they used real video from when Will Hochman was younger!" u/Conscious-Coffee-5431 offered a slightly more critical take on the episode, but added that the ending involving Frank and Joe is the only thing worth remembering. u/kayky97 was also a big fan and loved this ending, but wondered about the true motivations of Frank. 

While Reddit has plenty to say about the episode, these weren't the only opinions on social media.
