Nolan kept saying that his wife was in danger while Jason was out. That's what we see in The Rookie season 7, episode 5.

A man like Jason is always going to go out for revenge. It looks like it’ll happen in The Rookie season 7, episode 5.

Jason is currently on the run. After escaping from prison, he’s needed to keep his head down. That doesn’t mean he doesn’t want revenge. There wasn’t much revenge to be had while Bailey was out of town, though.

Of course, Bailey being out of town was written in as a way to write out Jenna Dewan for a couple of episodes. She was on maternity leave, but now she’s back. It’s time for trouble to come knocking on the door.

Does Jason run Bailey over in The Rookie season 7, episode 5?

Bailey and Nolan discuss Jason in the new episode. There’s a feeling that he’s on the run, but that’s not the case at all. While he’s out, he poses a threat. I’m surprised that Nolan is calm right now. He knows the sort of type of threat men like Jason are!

So, it’s not surprising to us when Bailey is hit by a car. It looks like it’s Jason, finding any way to get revenge. For a man like Jason, it’s a case of “if he can’t have her, nobody can.” So, that means he needs to kill her. ‘Til death do you part, and all that, right?

Harper deals with the aftermath of the attack

During the previous episode, Harper and Lopez headed into a scary situation and ended up splitting up. It’s rule 101 in a horror movie. Never split up. This was like something out of a horror, and the two women did the wrong thing.

Harper ended up attacked by the serial killer, and now she needs to live with the fear and the aftermath. It’s not going to be easy for her to do.

Things aren’t going well for Harper and James at the moment. Could this help to turn things around, or will he end up walking away? There are chances that Harper won’t open up for a while about what she’s going through, and by the time she does, it could be too little, too late.

Check out the promo and synopsis for The Rookie season 7, episode 5:

"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."

The Rookie airs on Tuesdays at 10/9c on ABC. Catch up the following day on Hulu.
