The Rookie is inspired by a true story. John Nolan is the oldest rookie in the LAPD. At an age where most are at the peak of their career, Nolan cast aside his comfortable, small town life and moved to L.A. to pursue his dream of being a cop. Now, surrounded by rookies twenty years his junior, Nolan must navigate the dangerous, humorous and unpredictable world of a "young" cop, determined to make his second shot at life count.

Holy cow, what an episode. Felt a bit like "Darkness Falling", the episode from last season that finally got me into The Rookie. But this episode got me so revved up all throughout. 100000% the best episode so far this season, honestly a bit afraid no episodes this season will be as good as this one was... guess we'll find out in the coming months!
