SEAL Team Season 7 Episode 6: Drew’s Future With The Team
As we prepare to watch SEAL Team Season 7 Episode 6 on Paramount+ next week, it feels like we’re entering a new era. After all, consider what we saw throughout yesterday’s new episode! It turns out he has a very tragic past due to the multiple deaths of Echo Team members; he’s been living his life in a way that he suspects something terrible is going to happen. He fears the worst with Bravo and in a way, it’s easier to never open up.
So after these revelations, what else can you expect from this character? While Beau Knapp couldn’t reveal everything to TV Insider, he did a good job of setting the scene: I can’t reveal too much, but I think it’s like… if he feels like he’s getting close to anybody or danger or any kind of connection, that triggers him to go, I need to destroy everything. I need to push. I need to burn every house down on every bridge. Because building relationships and building trust and caring about these people just creates the opportunity to get hurt again, to lose people again, and I don’t think Drew thinks he can handle that loss again. I think it’s suspicious that he doesn’t know if he can handle that again. And so, yeah, I think that’s the moment where he definitely opens up and shows his true nature and that he’s just like Jason and Sonny and all these people. He’s scared but he’s strong-willed and brave and all of these things, but I think that’s going to play out over the course of the season as he gets more connected, more he has to fight back, and then hopefully he figures it out by the end and becomes friends with everyone.
Ultimately, it’s an emotional journey and we tend to think it’s going to be more and more of that throughout the rest of the season. How else can you really look at things at this point? Every character, in one way or another, is facing a reckoning; Drew might just be a little different than the others because he can still pursue an executive career.
