'Blindspot' Season 5 Episode 9: Matthew Weitz dies a hero after redeeming himself, fans can't believe he's gone
The two episodes of 'Blindspot' put us through a rollercoaster today and there's only so much that our nerves can take. Patterson (Ashley Johnson) is alive as we all predicted. What we didn't foresee was Matthew Weitz (Aaron Abrams) dying after his redemption arc, Madeline Burke (Mary Elizabeth) killing herself to avoid falling into the clutches of the FBI agents, and well, Jane Doe (Jaimie Alexander) appears to have zipped herself. Fans are praying that the ZIP was defunct and that Jane doesn't lose her memory again.
Episodes 9 and 10 were not an easy watch and fans are still trying to gather their wits and are speculating about the upcoming finale, which is in two weeks. Some are still shedding tears over Weitz's death and say they are really going to miss his and Afreen's partnership. "Weitz & Afreen working together was one of my favourite things about this season. And it’s been fun seeing all the familiar faces. I don’t want the final episode to come. I don’t want it to be over," a fan wrote.
Some are just sorrowful that after all his character development he had to be killed off. "Me (finally): I LOVE Weitz he's amazing I'm so proud of his development Blindspot: okay i'm sorry but.... " a fan wrote. Another wondered why they couldn't save Weitz. "But how they couldn't save Weitz? I mean Patterson is an all rounder #Blindspot," a fan wrote.
"Honestly never thought I'd be sad about Matthew Weitz's death. #Blindspot@NBCBlindspot@BlindspotRoom@martingero@ennisesmer@TheVulcanSalute @BrocoliRobBrown," a fan mourned. "'My hair was greasy' was really his last words and it makes so much sense. RIP weitz #Blindspot," another wrote. "I AM EXTREMELY EMOTIONAL ABOUT THE WEITZ-AFREEN PARTNERSHIP... PLEASE LEAVE ME TO MY EMOTIONS #Blindspot," a fan tweeted.
What does the finale hold? Well, the promo isn't promising much. Hopefully, Jane and Kurt Weller (Sullivan Stapleton) get the happy ending that they deserve, considering the amount of misery they have been through. Fans continue to root for Patterson and Rich Dotcom (Ennis Esmer), but that's up in the air too.
Two weeks till the finale and fans are busy speculating on what's going to happen next. Here's praying for a happy ending.
'Blindspot' is an NBC show.
