A crew of criminals posing as police officers hijacks official uniforms, gear, and vehicles—and targets a truck full of evidence bound for destruction. When Tim Bradford and Lucy Chen spot the impostors mid-intercept, it’s up to them to shut the operation down in this action-packed scene from a previous episode. The Rookie returns for Season 8 on Tuesday, January 6, 2026, on ABC, with episodes streaming next day on Hulu.
