SEAL Team’s final season is fast approaching, which means Paramount+ subscribers will soon be able to enjoy the show’s final episodes. Some fans may find it difficult to say goodbye to the military-focused show, but there’s a lot to look forward to in Season 7. That’s especially true after the thrilling conclusion of Season 6, when Bravo and several other SEALs came clean about their injuries and illnesses. Another thing fans are hoping to see is a budding romance between Sonny and Davis, but it may not be that easy.
Since the series began, it’s been clear that something is brewing between A.J. Buckley’s Sonny Quinn and Toni Trucks’ Lisa Davis. They’ve had a pretty complicated relationship over the past several seasons, and fans are more eager than ever to finally get their happy ending. Speaking to TV Insider, Trucks admitted that she knows viewers want the two characters to be together, but when Season 7 begins, they won’t actually be lovers: [They’re] in a place of deep attachment but platonic. And of course, we’re not going to disappoint the fans by taking them on a rollercoaster ride.
Of course, it’s more evident that Sonny and Davis care about each other and share an attraction, but there are too many obstacles preventing a real romance between them. While it’s bound to happen because this is the finale, it seems like fans may have to wait a little longer for the end of the season to make it happen. There’s a good reason why they haven’t officially gotten together yet, as Toni Trucks shared: It’s hard for them. They’re like moths to a flame. But it comes back to [the balance] of duty and loyalty, right? Davis would want nothing more than to be with Sonny, and I think the opposite. But Sonny can’t think of anything else to do but be at Bravo. And Davis could never imagine lying so deeply about her job to create a romance. That would be too personal. That would be taking care of herself in a way she can’t.
That’s not to say that love can’t happen for them at all, but of course there are other plot lines that need to be addressed. Bravo has been through a lot in the last few seasons, most notably the shocking and tragic loss of Clay Spenser, which hit Sonny and the rest of the team pretty hard. There’s also no telling what the fallout will be from the earth-shattering confession made in the finale. But despite all that, Davis and Sonny will still have some fun between their high-stakes missions, as the trailer teases a very sweet moment between them. Let’s see: A Sonny and Davis dance scene would be enough to get fans excited about a potential romance in the final season. Of course, there’s no specific context for that scene or exactly how it plays out. Unfortunately, Toni Trucks couldn’t say much about it, though she did tease: It’s a moment that will definitely leave them and the audience wanting more.
As one of many shows ending or being canceled in 2024, SEAL Team will have a few subplots to wrap up. It sounds like there will be some Sonny and Davis moments that fans will want to keep an eye on. And hopefully, some of those moments will only solidify their romantic relationship as more than just a friendship. Season 7 will likely have an emotional finale that will be both entertaining and intriguing to see what happens to Sonny, Davis, and the rest of Bravo. The first part of this season will premiere on Sunday, August 11 on Paramount+ in the 2024 television broadcast schedule.
