'SEAL Team' Season 3 Episode 2 Preview: Ray Perry tries to help Jason Hayes but he uses 'ignore and override' strategy
The third season of 'SEAL Team' is back with a bang as the Bravo team attempts an electrifying car chase through Belgrade, Serbia. David Boreanaz opened up about the headspace of his character Jason Hayes and said, "His headspace going into these missions is like a high-octane, 650-horsepower Mustang that just roars. Down the line that affects him."
"Jason has been worn down by the loss of his wife [who died last season in a car accident] and his kids going off to college and boarding school," the actor says. "There he is alone, out of the house he sold, living in a one-bedroom [place] above a garage."
After the thrilling first episode titled, 'Welcome to the Refuge', the summary of the second episode reads: "Bravo Team continues their mission in Serbia to track down an organization linked to the bombing of multiple American military outposts when Jason Hayes' past returns to haunt him and leaves him contemplating his future." The official Twitter account of SEAL Team also teased the new episode and wrote: "Bravo's not leaving until the job is done, and done right."
In a one-minute clip, Ray Perry (Neil Brown Jr.) confronts Jason Hayes about his fears and mental anxiety issues but he chooses to walk away. That's when Ray says, "ignore and override!" which is also a reference to the name of episode 2.
Towards the end of the first episode, a man clacked off a suicide vest right in front of Jason, who was saved by Clay jumping on him. Fans are concerned about Jason's fragile mental health and that the incident might take his fears one notch higher. In the preview, the bombing incident haunts Jason and he tells himself, "Maybe I need to make a change." So, what change will Jason make in the new season?
Former executive producer John Glenn earlier revealed, "Jason makes a huge decision in the first two episodes that affects Ray and tests Ray's loyalty to him and Bravo." As the second episode rolls out on Wednesday, October 9, it will reveal whether Jason will actually be able to battle his demons.
