Here’s hoping but considering who else is in that episode I worry we’ll suffer tonal whiplash and too little time will be given to Lucy. I hope and pray I’m wrong though.
That jump scare took me out. The zombie episode will never achieve that level of shock. But also how else will we know how in love they are??? Imagine if Nolan, not knowing she was there, brought friends home for a drink 🤦♀️
The Rookie and timelines is the most hilarious mismatch ever. What do you mean 5 years? Lucy‘s running around with 2019 on her ribs from her rookie year and you’re telling me that was 5 years ago but all your evidence is being logged for 2026???
Chenford‘s “Girlfriend Lucy?“ gave me flashbacks to Hollanov’s ”Boyfriend?“ ”Yes, I think, probably.“ When you can link two different fandoms it’s always a good day.
That was my first fear! but I assume a task force should have a bigger room. Oh maybe the asbestos room from season six!
Yeah, where this task force office… 🤔
To be clear I don’t think the show will do this and timing could put these two events weeks from each other but… it could be fun. Would be a fun way to display some growth for him too, turning to Lucy without prompting, confiding his fears, setting up a therapy appt or using the tools it gave him.
The real reason Tim took the watch commander role is because it comes with an office surrounded by glass so he won’t be tempted to create a HR issue with his future wife, Sergeant Lucy Chen. But he can also watch her longingly from afar 🤣🤣🤣
She's beauty; she's grace; she has a smile on her face and she'll eff up your day, don't cross her.
Am I the only one connecting the dots between Tim trying to rise in the ranks, and his squad mates died in an airstrike, and now Tim's getting a promotion and the station explodes? I mean, it might not go down like that, but... it would be interesting if it did. 👀
I know exactly how you feel! It felt like a fever dream; like fanfic made real. And now I can’t focus on anything. i just want to go back and rewatch over and over. Totally fixated in the best way. It’s old school The Rookie.
They broke up in the dark and got back together in the light. I love that for them. Also relates to Tim being in a darker place and now feeling a lot lighter. Man, this is so good. #chenford
Chenford fam, how’re we doing?
I love how every season The Rookie is like "cast discuss returning villains" Yes, all the villains return. They're like the Batman villains, they just never go away (unless they die). Jail cannot contain them; even if they escape, they come back like boomerangs because they love Nolan I guess.
Imagine if the reason Nolan had to go to Prague was because everyone else is involved in Operation Chenford TM (coined by Angela), including Tim and Lucy, except they don't know they're involved, and Angela just goes to Grey with a list of everyone who cannot go to Prague because of "reasons".
Yesss, the reassurance of endgame makes it so much easier to just sort of go with the flow. Like we'll get there, it just depends how much longer the writers want to drag it out but I'm here for the journey no matter how long it takes.
I'd love that but my expectations are in the ground after the last few seasons. I enjoyed them, but for every step forward we take, we reverse three miles down the mountain.
YES! Like can't say anything because it could trigger the fandom. Heck, if she breathed or blinked a certain way, people would have Lucy engaged, eloped, pregnant 😂
Thank god for Melissa getting to the heart of the matter. NUMBER 1 Lucy Chen is a sergeant! That's it. That's everything. That's all that matters. Monica? Oscar? Blips on the radar. LUCY HAS STRIPES! Thus endeth the Lucy Lesson.
When my non-hockey mutuals are telling me to watch the hockey show, then I guess I must watch the hockey show. And then subject them to all my weird hockey knowledge that they now have context for.
You should! It’s expensive but totally worth it and it’s interactive! I also saw a light kit for it which will be my project for next year I think, so I can make it a christmas decoration. Definitely the highlight of my Christmas this year.
I enjoyed the Chenford Legos so much that I ended up getting the Home Alone Lego set and spent most of Christmas building it. It was a lot of fun to build, and I loved all the little nods to moments in the film.
I’m surprised he hasn’t brought it up more but I figure the writers forgot he has one. Alexi did say he’d be the oldest detective at some point or something similar. 🙃 Makes me want to sit him down and make him watch the show again.
Or Miles could make a video about it:
So your SO wants to move to another city for a promotion…
Also like shouldn’t a union rep know this? Like… I feel like that may be a question an officer might go to a union rep about but I could be completely wrong.
Grey needs to start recording answers for questions from his TOs, it’ll save him time.
Q: If my wife/girlfriend gets a job offer in another city, what does that mean for my transfer?
A: You‘ll have to start from the ground up.
And there’s 18 episodes to do that. It’ll be fine.
I‘m excited for Chenford. Like that clip can go many ways. Maybe if Tim sticks to his guns, she’ll realise he’s serious about this but she needs to be able to air her hurt and he has to be able to air his fears. Honesty and communication needs to be built back up again and more so trust.
The amount of times Alexi says ”I think” in this article. They’re your characters dude, please ”know” something. As long as the mortal peril is not fatal I’m all on for it! I need feral Timothy.
I just found out who Nathan is in The Mighty Nein, and oh my god. Holy shit. This is gonna be interesting. (I love this actually)
