Nolan is in a difficult moment in his department when out of the blue his mother Evelyn arrives at his home. During a firearm exam in a shooting range, Nolan pays attention on a man shooting wearing a scuba gear and fails the test. Chen gives her car to Tamara and soon she finds that the teenager has sold the car to buy clothes and other stuffs. West witnesses the racist Doug mistreating a black family and he decides to report to Sgt. Grey that intends to retire. Lopez finds the connection between the shooter in the scuba gear and the notorious La Fiera that is visiting a college in Los Angeles for her son.
"La Fiera" is so far, the worst episode of "The Rookie". How a forty-six-year-old police officer accepts the awful treatment of his mother like Nolan does? The mushy relationship between Chen and Tamara is also terrible. The racist segment is despicable, and West should have paid an informal visit to his father to have some advice. My vote is five.
Title (Brazil): "La Fiera"
