SEAL Team Series Finale: How It Ended and What Happened to Bravo Team
This post contains spoilers from Sunday’s SEAL Team finale.
Bravo Team’s days of dangerous, remote missions are over.
Following the penultimate episode, in which Ray (Neil Brown Jr.), Omar (Raffi Barsoumian), Sonny (A.J. Buckley), Brock (Justin Melnick) and Trent (Tyler Gray) captured Ramon Nazario (Gabriel Rodriguez), Jason (David Boreanaz) and Drew (Beau Knapp) set out to find and kill Ross Curtis (Mac Brandt), a Green Beret and traitor.
When Jason and Drew find Ross, they point their guns at him, but Jason reconsiders and decides not to kill him, muttering, “You’re not worth it.” But as Jason walks away, Drew shoots Ross in the head, explaining to Jason, “That fucking traitor tried to kill my teammate. Besides, letting him go would end your career.”
The Bravo Team is on the plane later when Jason explains why he didn’t shoot Ross. “It felt wrong to kill someone who was as tainted by this war as I was,” he says.

Meanwhile, Ray expresses regret to Naima (Parisa Fakhri) about Clay Spenser (Max Thieriot), who was shot and killed in season 6. “The Spenser house has been tainted to me,” Ray says earnestly.
Sonny spends his time cleaning Clay’s gravestone chatting with Stella (Alona Tal), who accidentally reveals that Davis (Toni Trucks) has accepted a new role that requires moving to Washington, D.C. — a decision that prompts Sonny to do some soul-searching.
In Jason’s garage, he and Mandy have a heated discussion, in which Mandy says he needs to forgive himself for the people he killed — “The people who need to forgive me are dead,” he replies — before Jason receives a call from his commander. Bravo is assigned another mission to Afghanistan, where they will find a former high-ranking Taliban official who was exiled for siding with the Northern Alliance. Before Bravo’s team departs, Jason talks to Ray and wonders if Curtis can “atone” for his actions. Jason is actually wondering if he can atone for the people he killed in the past. However, Ray believes redemption could help Jason find peace. David Boreanaz is ready to give his body a break after the end of SEAL Team: ‘I had 4 MRIs in 4 months’ (Exclusive) In Afghanistan, Jason, Ray and Sonny visit a village, where they pay cash to a resident to show them where the family of a man Jason once killed now lives. The wife eventually forgives Jason for his actions.
As the trio drive away, they come under enemy fire and find themselves struggling to survive. They apparently survive, as the episode then cuts to Emma’s wedding, where Jason walks her down the aisle. During the reception, he dances with Mandy, while Sonny and Davis discuss her new job.
Meanwhile, Naima tells Ray that he should celebrate the success of Bravo Team’s latest mission. She also explained that running the Spenser House and helping veterans has helped her find a purpose that’s “bigger than anything I’ve ever done.” She added, “All I want is for you to find that feeling, wherever you find it.”
Also at the reception, Sonny revealed to Stella that he’d named Clay co-inventor of a new medical kit that Sonny developed so that half of the profits would go to Clay’s family — a move that brought Stella to tears.
“The purpose of the medical kit is to help my brothers and sisters in the military,” Sonny added, before the two hugged.
In one scene, Davis gets her orders for her new role and Ray visits the Spenser House and convinces Ben (Joey Pollari) to stay. As Jason grills by the water and plays with his dog, Mandy approaches with beers in hand.
“On or off the battlefield, we need to support each other,” Jason says in voiceover, adding, “We must inspire the desire to live well, never lose hope, find meaning at home, and prove once and for all that war is not the last word.” In the next scene, Bravo Team is at a bar, drinking beers and joking as Jason raises his glass to his teammates. “We may not be teammates anymore, but we will always be brothers,” he says before they clink glasses. Sonny then tells Davis that he is ready to leave Bravo to support her in pursuing her dreams. They then drive to Washington, D.C., taking on new roles in the embassy.
