"The Hawke" is the sixth episode of the first season on The Rookie. This is the sixth episode of the series overall.
Summary[]
Chen crashes during training with Bradford, and their shop ends up on its roof in the street. Meanwhile, Nolan meets up with Jeremy Hawke, his former training officer at the academy, and learns he has fallen on tough times.
The next morning, Nolan and Bishop interview a man who witnessed a homicide, while Bradford teaches Chen how to predict the moves of criminals. Lopez and West interview a domestic violence victim, who reveals to them that she is Hawke's wife Megan. Grey calls Nolan and tells him and Bishop to bring Hawke to Andersen immediately. They go to his motel to arrest him, but he flees from them and goes on the run. Motta and Paige, the detectives investigating Hawke, inform Andersen that Hawke is under arrest.
West and Lopez interview a shooting victim at the hospital. Motta grills Nolan about Hawke's whereabouts, but Nolan does not know where he is. Andersen tells Nolan to find Hawke at all costs. Bishop and Nolan spot Hawke and pursue him in a high speed chase along with Bradford and Chen. They try to use a PIT maneuver on him but discover much to their horror, that he has his son Logan in the car with him; Logan is a willing participant in the chase because Hawke lied to him. Andersen consoles a distraught Megan.
West figures out the shooting victim was lying to him, while Lopez deals with the victim's father, who is combative and who seems to be hiding something. West doesn't believe the young man's account that he was shot in a drive-by incident, but the victim stubbornly insists on sticking to his story.
The chase after Hawke ends up on the local news, so Andersen tells Grey to end it at any opportunity. Hawke and Logan go to the mall to escape from the police, and Hawke barricades Logan and himself in a store. Nolan convinces Hawke to give up Logan, but Hawke goes into a barricaded area and they go after him. Andersen tells Megan that Logan is safe and she is relieved.
In the hospital, the father of the shooting victim is attacked by the victim's boyfriend, who is then arrested by West. West visits the shooting victim and tells him to tell the truth about what happened before he leaves. Evidence has turned up that shows gunshot residue on the father's hands, and West theorizes that he and his son fought over the son's sexual preferences and the gun went off.
Nolan and Bradford corner Hawke and Hawke is finally arrested after Bishop and Chen pepper-spray and tase him. Nolan finds Andersen back at the station and says he hopes she doesn't feel like she started the Hawke incident. Andersen thanks him and tells him that what he did to restart his life at its lowest point was admirable. Nolan thanks her and they both leave for the night. Chen calls Bradford to tell him that she lifted his money clip and Bradford is annoyed at her.
