After a two-month hiatus, The Rookie season 4 Episode 11 titled ‘End Game’ is here, to take us down memory lane. In this episode, the show brings in old characters and storylines to the forefront.
We see a serial killer back in Los Angeles, reminding detective John Nolan of a similar case he worked on in Pennsylvania years ago. The similarity in the modus operandi of both cases has him convinced that the killer has relocated to Los Angeles. In a bid to solve the case, he decides to reach out to his former partner, Abigail. Together, they rekindle their old partnership and work on solving the case, albeit with some hiccups along the way.
At the same time, Angela is grappling with her unresolved feelings for Wesley, who is married. While trying to avoid him at all costs, she continues to struggle to move on from him. At one point, Tim tries to introduce her to a friend, but the awkwardness of the situation makes her realize that she may need to move away for some time to get over her feelings for Wesley.
Meanwhile, the station is going through some trouble, with the review board assessing the events of the last few crucial months. Things look bleak for Grey, who is in danger of losing his badge, but he is determined to fight and clear his name.
‘End Game’ provides us with a look into the inner workings of the characters' minds. It's thrilling to watch Nolan and Abigail work together as old partners, their chemistry taking us back to the good old days of the show's first season. Their investigative skills are put to the test, and we watch with bated breath as they solve the case piece by piece.
In this episode, we see Angela's vulnerability showcased and the emotional fallout of her infatuation with Wesley. There are moments of tenderness and moments of despair as we watch her struggle through her feelings. The situation is made all the more complicated by the fact that Wesley is dealing with his own marital problems, making matters all the more complex.
The episode offers something for everyone. There is drama, action, and even a touch of romance. The suspense will keep you at the edge of your seat. The writing is strong, and the directing is on point. The producers do an excellent job of bringing the past to the present and building new storylines on old narratives.
