NOLAN: Previously on "The Rookie" How serious are you about becoming a training officer? Sir, I don't want to be a T.

O.

I'm going to be a T.

O.

This is Sabrina Fowler, the very talented new actress on "Hot Suspect.

" - It's a pleasure.

- [CHUCKLES]

You know, my character, is having an affair with a police sergeant.

And his wife likes to watch.

Lieutenant Landon Briggs.

- I'm the Union - President.

Yes, I know.

Nolan.

You know what the best part about being union president is? Power.

The power to help the people I like and hurt the people I don't.

And I had this whole Mother's Day thing planned with Jack Jack's been up for three hours.

I have been up for three hours.

Is that cereal in your hair? And applesauce.

And, somehow, banana under my boob.

Mm.

Okay, so how can I fix this? - I need a shower.

- Mm-hmm.

And a nap.

Uh But we have Mother's Day brunch with your mom later.

Right.

[SIGHS]

- Mm.

- New plan.

- Mm-hmm? - Shower, blow-out, mani-pedi, and some mimosas with Patrice.

Okay, so you're gonna take Jack to the nail salon.

No.

You're taking Jack.

Right.

I just I have that thing with a client for the restaurant, remember? Which [CHUCKLES]

I'm gonna take Jack to.

I love you.

Happy Mother's Day.

Mm-hmm.

[JACK CRYING]

Nolan.

Hold up.

I got some bad news.

I'm hearing rumors that the Union President is gonna make a move against you.

Not a surprise, given how I showed him up at the City Council.

Any idea what he's planning? Not yet, but I expect the worst.

There's no hard rule on the union delegate count.

He can shrink the number by one.

And because I was the last one in, I'd be the first one out.

- What do I do? - You focus on your T.

O.

exam next week.

Don't let politics derail your career.

Oh, no, I've been studying my ass off.

I think I'm ready.

Don't think it.

Be it.

Clearly, you don't have time to waste.

Are you calling me old? - It was implied.

- [BOTH LAUGH]

Hey, you know, why don't I ride with you today? I can teach you some things that are not in the study guide.

One-on-one time with a supervisor will strengthen your case for a promotion.

Sir, you don't have to do that for me.

Nolan, do you want to be a T.

O.

? - Absolutely.

- Then don't do that small-town "I hate to be a bother" thing.

You're being offered an opportunity.

Take it.

Yes, sir.

And thank you, sir.

You're welcome.

And Luna's okay with you working Mother's Day? Yeah.

It's the first year Dominique's not at home.

Luna said she's fine keeping it super low-key.

Oh.

What? Do you think she's just saying that? No.

♪♪ LUCY: Mm yeah, that's a hard pass.

Look, I'm boycotting Mother's Day, but even if I wasn't, I really don't think this is the right time to meet your parents.

I figured you'd say that.

But they've been hounding me about meeting you for weeks.

Are you really freezing your mom out? I mean, I bought her flowers.

I'm not an anarchist.

TIM: I'm thinking we just lock in the Hyatt.

They have a lazy river.

What else do you need? Great.

You handle that, I'll book the flights.

- On it.

- Are you guys planning a vacation? - Yeah.

Hawaii.

- Oh, I love Hawaii.

Actually, I've never been, but I love the idea.

You'd think I'd be sick of beaches at this point, but it's gonna be awesome.

I've got to get to work.

Oh, me, too.

I'll walk out with you.

Call me if you change your mind.

I'm not going to.

Stop.

Change your mind about what? He wants me to meet his parents.

So, uh, whose idea was Hawaii? Mine, I guess.

Why? I-I thought you had today off.

I did, but Donovan has custody this weekend, and he is punishing me by taking Lila to see his mom in Santa Barbara.

So I am spending this Mother's Day without my baby.

Wow.

That is cruel, even for him.

Yeah, I know.

And James is taking his boys to see his ex-wife, because unlike Donovan, he is an actual decent human being.

But at least I get paid time and a half to be here and plot my revenge.

I can't wait to see what you come up with.

[CHUCKLES]

Somebody should sell tickets.

Mm! Is it crazy I want to be a T.

O.

with so little time on the job? No.

Your report writing is excellent.

You know policy, procedure, and the law well enough to teach others.

But your background could be a drawback.

Every other T.

O.

knows what it's like to be a scared, 20-something rookie because they were one.

And that shared experience gives them the leg up - in teaching that kid.

- Exactly.

But your experiences being a dad could help bridge the gap.

Only my kid was never armed and dangerous.

So, you really think Luna's hoping that I do something big for Mother's Day this year? I think it's always a safe bet to go the extra mile.

You're right.

We should stop somewhere so I can get a better gift.

- Yes, sir.

- Yeah.

I don't know how many times I need to say it.

Please clean it up, okay? I'm actually triggered by this, you guys.

I don't think you understand.

- They're here.

See? - [GASPS]

Oh, Sergeant.

Thank God you're here.

Ms.

Sabrina Fowler.

She's an actress on "Hot Suspect.

" I'm pretty sure he knows that.

It's nice to meet you.

Congratulations on the baby.

Unless it's just for the show.

Oh, it's both.

They made my character pregnant, so I got pregnant in real life.

Because she's a method actor.

How else am I gonna understand the experience? Wow.

So, what happened here, exactly? We got a call about an as*ault? That's right.

The girl from crafty assaulted me with a crouton.

She threw it at you? No.

She put it in my salad.

Do you know how many carbs are in a crouton? Right.

Um, well, what was the name of your, uh attacker? Mm, salad girl? I don't No.

Wait.

I heard somebody call her Monica while she was destroying everything.

- So she made this mess.

- That's right.

She completely freaked out when I told her I was gonna have her fired.

For putting a crouton on your salad? Are you taking her side? - Of course not.

- [CELLPHONE VIBRATES]

Excuse me.

I have to take this.

Is there anything else you can tell me about the incident? Like six people recorded it on their phones.

We're trending on Cliptalk.

- Right.

- They're calling her a folk hero.

Can you believe it? As if I'm the bad guy.

We're needed elsewhere.

Ms.

Fowler, I'm gonna have a unit reach out to studio security to get your attacker's information.

I want the book thrown at her.

Of course.

And happy Mother's Day.

Oh, thank you.

[LAUGHS]

Nice fake phone call.

It wasn't fake.

The D.

A.

's office has a witness to secure, and they asked for an advanced team to assess the site.

So I guess Luna's present will have to wait a while longer? [SIGHS]

Yeah, but don't let me forget.

[POLICE RADIO CHATTER]

Are you proposing to Ashley? What? Of course not.

We we've only been dating a few months.

Okay.

But if you take a girl to Hawaii, there's gonna be expectations.

You might not be aware of some of the signals that you're sending.

What kind of signals? The kind that makes her get a manicure because she's assuming she'll be sending pictures of her hand to all her friends.

DISPATCH: 7-Adam-100.

What's your status? Uh, 7-Adam-100.

Show us Code 6 on our 415.

- They lost her keys.

- Where are my keys? - Sir, please.

- You lost my Bentley.

No, sir, I just I just don't know where the keys are.

Okay, everyone, just calm down.

Back up a little bit, please.

Thank you.

- What's going on? - Jonah went crazy.

He punched that guy in the face, and he emptied the key cabinet and then stole a car.

Patrol, we need an R.

Jonah is a valet? Yeah, yeah.

He just started last week.

At first, he was amused by all the rich guests.

You know how petty and demanding they are.

No offense.

But when that dude told him to move his ass, he snapped.

Knocked the guy out, jumped into his Porsche, and took off with all the car keys.

And what color is the Porsche? WESLEY: So all you did was reach inside of an open car window and take a bag of chips from the passenger seat.

Yes.

I was super hungry, and it was right there.

- [JACK FUSSES]

- Are you allowed to bring a baby in here? Oh, he's my intern.

So, why is the District Attorney adding these extra charges? Burglary and vehicle tampering.

You're looking at the one who didn't go to law school.

I have no idea.

[SIGHS]

The ADA in charge of your case is Philip Harmon.

He's notorious for up-charging defendants.

Is there anything you can do about it? [SIGHS]

Uh not much.

He does it to force you to take a plea deal while he looks tough on crime.

That doesn't seem fair.

It's not.

I'll get right into this.

Hang tight.

- Come on, buddy.

- Thanks.

If you want, I could watch the baby while you work.

Not sure how my wife would feel about that, but thank you.

[DOOR OPENS]

[CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING]

No breakfast in bed, but Wesley did get me this bracelet.

That's lovely.

It's no diamond tennis bracelet, but I don't need him to show me his love with extravagant gifts.

Well, no one needs it, but wouldn't it be nice? [CELLPHONE CHIMES]

Wesley's running even later.

- Oh.

- We should order.

It's probably for the best.

Rich-people stuff isn't as fun when he's around.

[CHUCKLES]

No, he does tend to dampen the mood.

How about you and I spend the afternoon shopping? I'll hire a driver, and we'll do your first Mother's Day right.

I love you.

Yes.

Cheers to that.

Cheers.

[g*nsh*t]

JONAH: Good morning, and happy Mother's Day.

Now, I hate to interrupt your little manufactured family gathering, but this is a robbery.

- Let's go.

- Everyone stay calm, and you won't get hurt.

Just put all your belongings in the bag.

What are you gonna do? Stay calm.

Do as they say.

We don't want to make the situation worse.

Come on, cough it up, ladies.

Did you get an I.

D.

on the stick-up team? Yep.

Jonah Cahill, Monica Ditmar.

That's our valet.

He b*at up a guest this morning and stole a Porsche.

Oh, and that's the woman that Nolan and Grey put out a BOLO for.

She pitched a fit at one of the stars on "Hot Suspect" and then quit.

Which suggests the robbery was a spur-of-the-moment thing.

Yeah.

They might have snapped after a bad morning at work and decided that crime paid better.

I'm assuming they have criminal records? Yeah.

Minor offenses stretching back into their teens.

They're both living at a halfway house in Koreatown.

I got uniforms parked outside in case they come back.

They stole your Mother's Day's present? I'm going to get it back.

Damn right you are.

And I am gonna help you.

That must be tough going into WITSEC.

I mean, I changed my whole life to come out here, but I didn't have to cut ties with my family.

This poor guy's gonna have to give up everything he's ever known.

This "poor guy" is a runner for a street g*ng.

He stood by and watched people get m*rder*d.

He's lucky his testimony is valuable enough to get him immunity.

So, what do we have to do to get the site prepped for witness protection? First, the C.

needs to be given clear boundaries, the landmarks that he cannot cross, to keep him isolated.

Okay, how about Sixth Street to the north, that grocery store to the south? That way, there's lots of cameras and witnesses in case anything happens.

What was your FTO like? [CHUCKLES]

He was one of those guys who thought he could motivate me with threats.

One night, he drove me behind the grocery store, took off his belt and vest, and wanted to fight.

What did you do? I put him in the hospital.

He tread a lot more carefully after that.

I bet he did.

Check the bedroom.

There's four types of training officers Kings, Coaches, Teachers, and Slugs.

Well, I already know the Slug one.

That one's just doing it for the pay bump.

Kings are the - "my way or the highway" type.

Coaches offer motivation, and Teachers always want to explain everything.
