ABC has released the synopsis for season 1, episode 2, titled “Face Off.” The episode will feature Simone going after someone on the FBI’s Most Wanted List while also fighting with her father. Brendon will be facing a few different crossroads with Carter alongside him, while Laura will work with The Rookie‘s Tim Bradford.
The official synopsis for the episode reads:
“Simone utilizes her informant to track down an arms dealer on the FBI’s Most Wanted list; and Brendon, against Laura’s advice, investigates a risky lead on a congressman. When Carter and Brendon each find themselves at a crossroads, they begin to question their futures on the team, and their loyalty is tested. Cutty and Simone struggle to see eye-to-eye on how they are helping the community, while Tim and Laura find common ground with their similar no-nonsense approach to training rookies.”
As previously mentioned, Eric Winter and Melissa O’Neil from The Rookie will guest star as Tim Bradford and Lucy Chen, respectively, from the parent series.
