The Rookie: Feds characters once more, with Kevin Zegers’ Brendon Acres appearing in the trailer. The official logline for the episode reads: "The team searches for a serial killer as Nyla struggles with the aftermath following the attack. Lucy’s relationship with Seth takes a turn, while Bailey battles her fear of Jason Wyler."
In ScreenRant's sneak peek, Lucy goes to Tim for advice when she discovers that Seth has been dishonest on two separate occasions. After confirming that the rookie hasn't lied on the job, Bradford reminds her that a third of the department fibs about their personal life (such as Smitty's Olympic qualifications). He suggests that Lucy corrects his behavior herself, as staffing shortages, along with Officer Ridley's current hero status, make it unlikely Grey will cut him.
