When the actor finally returns the specifics of his “mission” would be revealed. Beale will need the assistance of his team when things become complicated.

HOW SEASON 10 ENDED FOR THE ACTOR

In season 10’s finale, the analyst rushed off to San Francisco to help his girlfriend Nell (played by Renée Felice Smith) with her sickly mother. The sudden departure left fans concerned that both characters were being written out of the show.
