A Serial Killer Talks to Nolan - The Rookie

Rosalind Dyer (guest star Annie Wersching), a convicted serial killer on death row, surprises the LAPD by leading them to a fresh corpse. As they try to find out who the second killer is, she insists on speaking to rookie Officer John Nolan (Nathan Fillion). Watch 'The Rookie' SUNDAY 10|9c on ABC.

2:17 I love this foreshadowing. In the following episode, Nyla assures the rest of the officers that Lucy is alive because she knows that the girl will fight to keep herself alive long enough for them to save her. And later, instead of fighting back against Caleb when he orders her to go into the barrel, Lucy complies, but secretly drops her ring which Bradford later finds, leading to her rescue. The level of faith that Nolan and the rest of the officers have for each other is incredible.

So sorry about the loss of the actress who plays Rosalind Dyer. Annie Wersching was a great addition to the cast of 'The Rookie'. You must all be so sad about this.

[@andrew.ramdat]

Can we just take a moment and talk about Annie’s impressive acting. Her acting is chilling as she is playing a serial killer. She plays it splendidly well, she knows how to get into your head. She is such a pure talent, and I admire her ways of acting. May she please rest in peace❤️‍🩹

Well, earlier Chen explained the brains of people that are capable of doing the things that Rosalind has done operates very differently from typical people. Something in them that was there from birth or from some traumatic experience.

[@2222jm]

When I first saw the preview for last night's episode, I thought the serial killer was being played by Bridget Catherine Regan (Sin Rostro on Jane The Virgin) due to the long red hair.

[@Miss_christie1217]

Omg she really does look like Sin Rostro

This comment aged well, because Bridget Regan does make an appearance in the show as Wesley's ex-fiance, Monica Evans, a lawyer who represents Elijah Stone in Season 5.

The personality transformation is more impressive - he is actually acting here, and he got so complacent in 'Castle', he was just coasting. He fell into the same bad habit in '2 Guys' - not that he was the only one, or without reason. Here the cast are all so talented, he's having to use more of his ridiculous talent, and so far there's no sign he's even remotely missing it.

[@Lucas-ui9re]

[@purplefood1]

@@DomainOfCybersmith She's shackled and allowing a weapon leaves the possibility it can be used against them. It does seem highly unlikely they'd allow him to go in with a firearm especially on his own. They'd have guards on the door and I imagine some watching as well ready to move in to restrain her but allowing anyone to bring a gun in allows her to get in arms reach of said gun and if she can somehow break free of her shackles then allowing her a gun seems like the worst idea after that.

Is Rosiland Dyer an arch-enemy of John Nolan now that Nick Armstrong is out of the picture? And what are the chances that she will be released from imprisonment in the end of Season 3 plotting torment against Nolan and those closed to him in Season 4?

[@isaiahbrown567]

Udi Baraj yea Stana was known to be really really rude to Nathan and other cast members on Castle and then attempting to blame it on Nathan which is why they fired her from Castle in the first place....however if she were to come on the Rookie she should either play Nolan’s ex wife or some sort of major foe to Nolan that’s gonna rock his entire world.

I feel like her lines aren't good enough. Especially the line where she has to say that she likes to see how her actions horrify people but it doesn't get her as high as the murdering itself. It feels like a line better delivered by another character making the observation. Her saying it makes it seem like she's trying hard to come off as really cold blooded.

She's in full body restraints, and those restraints are chained to that bench. This isn't at the prison, or even in one of their interrogation rooms.
