Showrunner R. Scott Gemmill previously spoke about what fans can expect from Hetty’s storyline in the show’s final season. 

When asked if the team will have to rescue Hetty, played by Linda Hunt, in the hotly-anticipated season finale, Gemmill told Parade at the drama’s wrap party earlier this month: “We don’t get to that point, but it’s put in motion. Let’s put it that way.

“We are going to have steps taken to resolve Hetty’s storyline in a way that I hope leaves fans feeling excited,” he added.
