Loving the writing creativity of conflict in this season finale. Excellent suspense and humor at the right times, with a sweet little cliff-hanger. Well done and executed... all acting and directing spot on! The cast are all growing on me and are perfect in their respective roles. Keep it up guys. Another perfect 10/10 on this episode. Now to up my overall TV series score from an 8 to a 9! Can't wait for another season. 🙏

Great and suspenseful season finale that leaves us wanting more
Holt34418 April 2019
This marks the end of season one and hopefully not the end of the series as it's a great one. The dialogue and overall writing have always been great and this is another episode that shows how great it is. They delivered one of the most suspenseful episodes with a plot that can often turn bad but they succeeded and I believe it's mostly because of the director, Michael Goi and the actors that portrays the events in as realistic way.
The overall season have been great, showing us different police scenarios in every episode, also bringing us great mix of drama and comedy as it's done in a great and fresh way.

One of the Best Season Finales I've Seen

Whew, this episode gave me chills. I loved everything about it. I love the storyline of the terrorist attack and them being involved personally. I loved how Tim's character was used, but I'm still not certain how I feel about Jessica but I guess I'll see over the next few episodes (or seasons). I also really like how we used Wesley in this episode. I always like when he's in episodes, but I especially loved him in this one. It was nice to see their job through his eyes.
Best part of the episode? Everything, but I especially loved the Tim-Lucy scenes. The chemistry between them is incredible.
Worst part of the episode? Nothing. It was absolutely perfect. I've rewatched it way too many times and I love it even more each time.

The Terrorist Attack
claudio_carvalho19 October 2021
Nolan and Talia attend a dispatch call in a bus station and find a dead body in the restroom. Soon they learn that the guy is a terrorist that intended to release a bio-weapon in LA. The Police Department is in standby investigating where might be the terrorists. When Tim and Chen arrive at a home, they realize that the owner has mistakenly swapped backpacks at the bus station and the weapon is inside his room. Tim immediately locks the door to protect Chen while the CDC starts the quarantine protocol.
"Free Fall" is maybe the tensest episode of "The Rookie" so far. The plot is excellent and looking forward to see what will happen to Tim. Jessica shows that she is a badass. My vote is nine.
Title (Beazil): "Queda Livre" ("Free Fall")

Entertaining but also a lot of nonsensical things

Warning: Spoilers
While the episode was entertaining a lot of things in this episode were also inaccurate or didn't make sense.
The first outbreak was because a passenger on the bus took the wrong bag and ended up with the bag containing the vials with the virus. So how is it possible that the terrorist later reaches into the other bag, which must have belonged to that passenger, and gets the aerosolizer with the virus from it???
Also afaik a vaccine only prevents someone from contracting the disease, ussually by infecting them with a weakened version or close relative of a virus or bacteria so the body can learn to make antibodies against it. It doesn't help if someone is already infected.
