SPOILER ALERT: The following story reveals details of Wednesday’s episode of ABC’s The Conners. The family and their neighbors in Lanford were forced to deal with tragedy in Wednesday night’s episode of ABC’s The Conners in a storyline that echoes the experiences of too many communities across the U.S.
In the episode, titled “Triggered,” when a shooting goes down at the local mall, the neighborhood is put on lockdown. Becky (Lecy Goranson) quickly realizes Emilio (Rene Rosado) and their daughter Beverly Rose (Charlotte Sanchez) were shopping there and is unable to reach them.
Each member of the Conner family reacts differently to the shooting. Aunt Jackie (Laurie Metcalf) goes into law enforcement mode, pulling from her experience as a police officer to keep everyone informed of how the tragedy is being handled.
During the panic, young Mary (Jayden Rey) took charge. She helped the family prepare for the emergency thanks to her training at school — a heartbreaking reality for students across the U.S. following multiple real-life shooting tragedies.
Dan (John Goodman) reacts by getting his gun, something that doesn’t sit well with his brood. His granddaughter Harris (Emma Kenney) eventually steals the gun and sells it to the police. Dan isn’t happy but he understands.
A frazzled Becky eventually hears from Emilio, who confirms he and Beverly Rose are safe, though that does little to calm the worried mom. When Becky and Beverly Rose finally reconnect, mom doesn’t want to let her little girl out of her sight.
When the Conners learn the shooter is someone they all know, they are astonished how close to home this all hits.
