The Rookie: Promotional trailer for ‘Under Siege’
On Tuesday, ABC’s hit crime drama The Rookie came to a gripping conclusion with its major season five finale.
Viewers were left on the edge of their seats as the officers were tormented by a masked criminal, who launched an attack on the team.
The episode Under Siege kicked off with a nail-biter as Aaron Thorsen (played by Tru Valentino) and Celina Juarez (Lisseth Chavez) were distracted by a noise down an alley.
After they decided to split, the masked criminal snuck up on Thorsen and attacked him.
As Juarez ran to her friend, the gunman shot Thorsen in the back and she was then struck by two other accomplices.
As they were both rushed to the hospital, Juarez was able to relay key information to John Nolan (Nathan Fillion) before losing consciousness again.
Unlike their usual cases, this episode didn’t end with a satisfying conclusion as the skilled officers weren’t able to identify the man responsible.
Instead, Thorsen was rushed in for life-saving surgery and seemingly pulled through but as he was in recovery with Juarez by his side, the beloved officer flatlined.
As the episode ended with Thorsen’s potential death, fans vowed to never watch The Rookie again.
