'Blindspot' Season 5 had a rather devastating premiere. After years of will they-won't they, Tasha (Audrey Esparza) and Reade (Rob Brown) finally got together. And then that literally got blown to hell after Madeline Burke (Mary Elizabeth) ordered a drone strike on their cabin. The team had escaped underground in time, but Tasha got pinned under Reade as the rubble fell on them. While saving Tasha, he died in the process. Losing her close friend and now boyfriend has been doubly hard on Tasha, and now, she seems to be suffering from severe PTSD. In the latest episode of 'Blindspot', Tasha has flashbacks about Reade's death, and in the next, she seems to have hallucinations about him. Things are just going to get more painful from here.

The point of discussion after this episode 'Existential Ennui' was Tasha's supposed pregnancy. Fans are questioning whether Tasha is pregnant, as she and Reade managed to have some time together just before the drone blew up the cabin. Others say that Tasha needs help, and must talk to someone. "My mom is absolutely convinced that tasha is pregnant, and I've gotta say, she might be onto something," a fan wrote while another tweeted, "Consensus here is that Tasha is pregnant." A fan listed out options on what could be up with Tasha. "Tasha: 1):has PTSD 2)some sort of trauma from reade dying, 3): She’s pregnant," a fan wrote.

"Tasha has to be pregnant. She balked bc she either felt dizzy or nauseous. She also brought up Kurt's kid," a fan tweeted. "Tasha better be pregnant, I can't stand the sadness," a fan wrote. Others lamented over Tasha's mental health. "Well least they know about Madeline's plan with the WMD but omggg is Tasha about to start seeing Reade in the field? The hallucinations are gonna be more emotional I bet. I'm not ready," a fan tweeted. "I feel awful for Tasha. She's struggling with her trauma a lot more than she's letting on to the team," a fan tweeted.

Meanwhile, the episode was full of zingers, as Madeline Burke killed Brianna (Amy Margaret Wilson) in cold blood. Afraid for his life, Matthew Weitz (Aaron Abrams) decides to not help the team anymore and warns Afreen (Ami Sheth) to not do so either.
