Ray Donovan’s son, Conor Donovan, moved to Los Angeles to attend military school. Later in the series, he joins the Marines.
In the television series “Ray Donovan,” Conor Donovan, played by Devon Bagby, is the son of the titular character Ray Donovan. Throughout the series, Conor’s relationship with his father is strained due to Ray’s complicated and often violent lifestyle as a fixer for the rich and famous in Los Angeles. Conor’s character development includes typical teenage rebellion, but his story takes a significant turn when he decides to attend a military school in Los Angeles, a decision that reflects his desire for discipline and structure, contrasting with the chaotic world of his family.
As the series progresses, Conor’s character appears less frequently as he is away at school. His decision to join the Marines is a pivotal moment for his character, symbolizing his coming of age and his desire to forge his own path, separate from the shadow of his father’s illicit activities. This move also serves as a point of pride and concern for Ray, who has always struggled to protect his family while being immersed in a dangerous lifestyle. Conor’s choice to join the military is both an escape from his father’s world and an attempt to establish his own identity.
