Synopsis: In The Rookie Season 7, Episode 8, "Wildfire," aired February 25, 2025, a massive wildfire ignites chaos across Los Angeles, pushing the Mid-Wilshire team to their limits. Nyla Harper remains laser-focused on serial killer suspect Liam Glasser, confronting him as the blaze rages. Tim Bradford and Lucy Chen team up, facing grave danger that sparks a pivotal love confession. Rookie Seth Ridley’s critical error—failing to report a road closure—nearly costs lives, while James organizes an evacuation center, only to be gunned down with a volunteer, Kylie, in a shocking drive-by cliffhanger.

Review: "Wildfire" is a rollercoaster of tension and emotion, arguably the season’s best yet. The wildfire backdrop amplifies the stakes, and Nyla’s pursuit of Glasser delivers gripping intensity. The Chenford moment is a fan-pleasing payoff, though Seth’s blunder feels frustratingly predictable. James’ shooting stuns, leaving you desperate for the next episode—despite a two-week wait until March 11. The cast’s acting shines, balancing action and heart, though minor pacing hiccups don’t detract from this thrilling, must-watch hour!
