The Rookie sees the return of Skip Tracer Randy (Flula Borg) when Nolan (Nathan Fillion) ends up knocking on his motel room door when investigating a murder. Meanwhile, Lucy (Melissa O’Neil) handles her first day back at work after the incident while Wesley (Shawn Ashmore) faces some challenges with the Glasser case.
In “Aftermath,” A Friend makes a reappearance, Smitty takes on a new role, Bailey gets a surprising gift and Flula Borg shows off a specific talent.
Character of the Week: Wesley Evers
It’s about time we have a Wesley storyline and something says that we’ll see him pop up in this category more in the next few weeks.
Lucy also deserves a nod for navigating her trauma after what happened in last week’s episode.
Relationship of the Week: Smitty & Laziness
If Smitty has any passion, it’s his dedication to being lazy on the job. It’s almost admirable.
Dialogue Teases:
“You look pretty horizontal to me.”
“I’m just another generic handsome beefcake in Los Angeles.”
“Why put so much effort into being lazy? Isn’t it easier just to do the job?”
“The stapler was broken when I got here.”
“That’s not bold. That’s insane.”
