The Rookie Sets 2-Episode December Return; S05E08, S05E09 Overviews
If you're a fan of ABC's Nathan Fillion-starring The Rookie, then you know that you have a bit longer to wait until the series returns- December 4th, to be exact. But when it does return, it looks like we'll be getting a two-hour, two-episode return. To help celebrate the news, we have the official overviews for S05E08 "The Collar" and S05E09 "Take Back," as well as a promo for "The Collar." And don't forget that beginning Tuesday, January 3, The Rookie (8 pm ET) and The Rookie: Feds (9 pm ET) will be teaming up on the same night moving forward. In addition, the two shows will be joined at 10 pm ET by the Ramón Rodríguez-starring crime drama Will Trent (based on Karin Slaughter's bestselling novels). And to get the new year off on the right note, viewers can expect a crossover between the two shows.
Here's a Look at The Rookie Season 5 Episodes 8 & 9
The Rookie Season 5 Episode 8 "The Collar": Officers John Nolan (Fillion) and Celina Juarez (Lisseth Chavez) are in a race against time to stop the source of an explosive rampage. The episode was written by Paula Puryear and directed by Robert Bella.
The Rookie Season 5 Episode 9 "Take Back": Officer John Nolan and the team investigate the unexpected death of a suspect in police custody. Their search also uncovers a very delicate loose end that could jeopardize Officer Celina Juarez's career. Meanwhile, Sergeant Grey (Richard T. Jones) and his wife, Luna (Angel Parker), go to New York to visit their daughter, Dominique (Jade Payton), only to realize she never made it home from the night before. The episode was written by Alexi Hawley and directed by David McWhirter.
