If I may have your
attention for a moment.

Previously on "The Rookie"...

I am proud to announce
that my rookie

has reached the capacity
of solo beat officer.

Being Detective Harper

Thank you.

We're still processing
the reunification center,

but we can confirm
the shooter is Connor Lowe.

Why is that name familiar?

He's a member
of the Sixth Street Devils.

We've got units kicking in
doors as we speak.

So far, no sign of him.

He shot a cop's husband.

If he has any sense,
he's halfway to Mexico.

We're checking known associates.

His face is out
to every law enforcement

agency in the state.

He can't hide for long.

Any theories on motive?

The other victim, Kylie Thomas,

came up in the same
neighborhood,

used to run with the same crowd.

Lately, she's been
spending more time

at the community center,
getting herself squared away.

Maybe the gang saw
James as a threat.

They've done worse for less.

There's another motive
we need to explore...

jealousy.

There's evidence
that James and Kylie

were more than friends.

What evidence?

Yesterday,
at the reunification center,

I saw James and Kylie kiss.

Are you sure?

Yes.

You're wrong.
James wouldn't cheat.

Now, you have to admit,

Harper and James have been

fighting a lot recently.

They've been fighting
since the day they met.

Yeah.

In my head, that was
a better counterargument.

The defense will argue that
Harper knew about the affair...

Now it's an affair?

And had Connor kill her husband

and his mistress.

Oh, that's a stretch.

The jury is supposed
to believe that

she trusted some random
criminal to get the job done?

They didn't even know
each other.

Harper arrested Connor
18 months ago on a gun charge.

Wait, how long have
you known about the kiss?

- A few hours.
- Hours?

During which
the world was on fire.

OK, OK, enough.

Wesley's right.

Harper's the spouse.

She's automatically a suspect.

I'll handle the investigation
into her involvement.

The best way to prove
that she's innocent

is to find Connor
and get a confession.

On it.

Uh, I got to get to the office.

The DA wants a briefing.

- We'll keep you updated.
- OK.

Where do you want me?

With me.

And Nolan,

you cannot tell Harper
what you saw.

She's a suspect.

I decide when
and what she knows.

Understood.

I need to talk to Harper.

Then we'll head out.

Yes, sir.

Hey, I got here
as fast as we could.

How's James?
- We don't know yet.

I heard you got
the fire contained.

Yeah, we got lucky
with the winds.

Does Harper need anything?

Are you OK?

It's just a headache.

You need to get some rest.

Oh, jeez, hey! Bailey?

- I don't know.

She just passed out.

Hey, I leaned on a few CIs.

I think we have
a motive for the shooting.

Kylie works at The Phoenix Room.

Wasn't there
a murder there last week?

A member of the Rolling 60s
was shot and killed outside.

We confirmed with the manager,

Kylie was there that night.

And you think she saw something?

Tracks with
the altercation yesterday.

Connor tried to intimidate her.

Whatever she said made him think

she was going to talk,
so he came back to silence her.

Anything's possible.

Detective Harper has

a relationship with Connor Lowe.

making out with a woman
20 years his junior.

'Cause as far as I know,

James was in the wrong place
at the wrong time,

Yeah, he seemed
pretty certain about that.

I have something tangible.

This is video from the night
of the firebombing.

You can see that's our suspect,

and you can see he has

the sleeve of a gray sweatshirt.

Kelce was arrested wearing
a gray sweatshirt, Nolan.

This ain't helping.
- Yes, sir. Bear with me.

You notice the Explorer police
shop he's standing next to?

That is exactly 70 inches tall.

Kelce is 5'10".

If this was him, his head
would be in the picture.

This suspect's at least 6'2".

Yes, sir.

Then I saw this man.

He is wearing a black hoodie,
but it has...

both: Gray sleeves.

- Who is he?
- His name is Brock Shohausen.

6'2", 260 pounds.

Video shows him before
the bombing with a backpack,

after the bombing
without a backpack.

This was found
at the scene of the crime.

It is the same backpack.

Shohausen, he has
one, two, three, four, f...

six counts of assault
on an officer

with great bodily injury?

I'll call a SWAT team
to pick him up.

Sir, I may have a safer idea.

Is that money?

Yep.

I guess you weren't lying
about the robbery.

- Told you.
- [groaning]

Is he going to be OK?

He should be fine once
we get the foreign objects out.

Are you going to cut me open?

No.

Take three of these every hour

until nature takes its course.

But be forewarned,
it's going to hurt more

coming out than it did going in.

OK, let me get this straight.

You guys knock over a meth lab,
take the cash,

accidentally spill chemicals
on yourselves.

I mean, it makes sense in a way,

but why stick money up...

We heard sirens and panicked.

We?

You also have?

Yeah.
