John Nolan Puts Himself Second - The Rookie

[@ngflycloud]

Only Nathan Fillion can make a boring teachable moment endearing.

[@PIEKING21]

Nolan keeps getting his heart broken, I feel so bad, Lucy, Jessica, and now Grace like dude come on give him some love

[@purplefood1]

Kinda surprising that he has such faith in people

[@PIEKING21]

Purplefood if you have seen the most recent episode that. I’m surprised he can trust anyone.

[@MnP_Ivan]

My man is clapping cheeks. They’re all beautiful women. He’s winning

[@trevorglinton2068]

Chen didn’t want to break up with him she did it to protect both of their careers I respect her for that and trust me Nolan would have done the same thing

[@daniloperisic6119]

@@MnP_Ivan hell yeah he's definitely a winner

[@Jermbot15]

In this scene. "Sometimes you have to put your needs and wants second. It's not easy, but for the people you love, it's worth it." and then. "Hey Nolan, I'm breaking up with you to put the needs of my son first." "Damn you bitter irony to so thoroughly throw my own words back at me!"

[@jessica4597]

Grace was honestly my favourite out of all his love interests.She was smart, mature and absolutely gorgeous! I would love to have her back but I think the writers purposefully wrote her off the way they did, poor Nolan. Though I do think his new teacher is a potential interest.

[@dnuck318]

Agreed!!

[@Miss_christie1217]

It’s funny, because Nolan left grace to be a father to a son with his now ex-wife and now Grace is doing the same thing for the same exact reason.

[@Shadylikeatree]

I think that's why he reacted how he did. I was 100% thinking this watching the episode.

[@michaelbull4344]

It s karma

[@ToeTag1968]

I really like John's character and compass. Well written person who deserves his fake tv friendships and respect.

[@raephaelemasirnille5794]

A couple getting back together for the sack of their kid is so stupid. They broke up for a reason. It would make more sense to say we're still in love and want to reconcile. If the feelings are no longer there what is the point? Tim's girlfriend leaving town, yippee!!! Now Tim and Lucy can get together.

[@kellyallen6830]

You read my mind!

[@SAWkln]

I hope I'm wrong and continue in the series because it makes a good couple with Nolan, but the writers seem to not see it that way.

[@mmb_98]

Not really. It’s called putting your own interests aside for the sake of your kid, like parents are supposed to do. If you want to divorce once your kids all grown up, fine. It’s like completing a project with someone you don’t like at work or for school. Sometimes, you need to put aside your differences and ignore what you don’t like about a person for the sake of a common goal, whether it’s for a job, a grade, or in this case, for the sake of their child. They don’t have to try ‘dating’ or loving each other again because like you said, there’s a reason for why they broke up. But they can still work as a team to finish their last project together: their child.

[@kellyallen6830]

@@mmb_98 in my opinion that just makes it worse for the kid or kids in my sister's case cuz she did the same thing and it just made it worse and harder on the kids cuz they will break up again and i like i said that will just make it hard on the kid all over again!

[@mmb_98]

Kelly Allen I can get that. Some people just can’t make it work. But I’ve also seen it where the kids become more messed up because of the parents splitting (had a friend who was a Straight A honors student before they started getting into some sketchy stuff when they entered high school (nothing too bad, but enough to put them in danger). They’re better now but it had some serious ramifications in regards to their education and employment options later in life). I guess it depends on the situation and how bad the split is.

[@SAWkln]

I do not understand the writers of this series regarding nolan and grace and I explain: They had an intense relationship in the past they break because they got their ex pregnant, 20 years later they meet again, it is obvious that the chemistry and the love between them still exists, little by little they get closer, and when they are together it turns out that he returns with his ex-husband for the son ,,,,, there are several chapters together to break. Why do the writers always screw up? They made a beautiful love story and it just so happens that in real life it happens ... I don't know if the writers did it this way to make fans of the series and of Nolan and Grace suffer or simply the actress leaves the series ... .

[@RoyalMasterpiece]

Awwww man. I was shipping Grace and Nolan.

[@kellyallen6830]

I could tell something wasn't right in that relationship even before she ended it i don't think she was being honest with him about everything!

[@xyPERSON]

So basically you were shipping a dishonest woman with a good-hearted man who deserved to be happy.

[@kellyallen6830]

@@xyPERSON i guess you could tell she wasn't being honest either

[@shipperfan13]

that's so sad love her and Nolan; Hope she's gonna come back in Season 3 (the show is gonna have a season 3 right ABC ? )

Great series hope another year and many more to come but guys John needs to feel that love ❤️ good guys can’t always come last pls

[@CaliBoi226]

Parents, never stay together for the sake of the kid/kids, it doesnt work and will only have resentment later in life when you realize you weren’t truly happy in the end.

[@Em-fz6eb]

Noo!! I understand that it's probably because of the actress leaving, but I loved Grace and Nolan. Hope John's next love interest actually sticks around for more than half a season this time, because I always get attached to these characters right before they leave lol

[@xlarissa96]

I miss Grace! I hope she’ll come back one day

he and nathan filion has so much in common both in character and their love life that its confusing to see what is fiction and what is real

[@udibaraj6714]

Nathan Fillion carries a huge trauma from CASTLE. I am talking about the issue of "will they won't they".trust me, every time John Nolan will have a love interest, she will disappear very fast.

[@letswoofmeow]

Why do you think it's trauma? The show was written that way, NF was just the actor. The show could last if they didn't try to make a completely different show in the season eight and if they didn't try to kickoff Stana.

[@janehartsock701]

I’m so tired of people comparing The Rookie to Castle. They are two different shows. Nathan’s an actor and he’s doing what the writers and directors ask him to do in BOTH shows. Get a life people and stop bringing up Ms Katic.

[@letswoofmeow]

@@janehartsock701 Haven't even try to make a compare those two. Just don't see how and why the heck would NF have the trauma after the Castle. And trust me, you don't have to protect Ms Katić from me. And... All I said was the truth.

[@janehartsock701]

Ksenija Woof wasn’t replying to you but to the original poster. Every show, film, interview, article etc NF is featured these people bring up Castle and Katic. Castle has been done 4 years, move on. And Katic burned her own bridges by demanding more money even more then Fillion. She became a Diva. She’s done like Castle. I’m even more upset with myself that I even respond to these posters. It just frustrates me when they bash NF but then I shouldn’t care. Just look at IMDb at what he’s done since Castle. That proves he’s wanted for his talents in the industry.

[@letswoofmeow]

@@janehartsock701 Calm down, Fillioner. Not everything that you read on the yellow pages is true. And let's be honest, woman deserved a lot more money. Look at the Nathan back than and look at him right now. This Fillion from these days is a lot more realistic to be a pair with a Beckett than a Fillion from Castle season 8th. He had his own reasons to stay, to look, that way till the end of the show and she had her own reasons to ask for a lot more money even though we can't always beleve to the yellow pages, right. Greetings.

[@Indy_21]

I miss Grace, to me she was the best love interest for Nolan. She and him had a natural spark. I don't dislike Jena Dewan's character Bailey, she's fun in a way, but... I just don't feel her with him, plus the fireman side, meeeh. Soon enough they'll develop yet another spin-off about firemen rookies. I wish Grace/Ali Larter to come back.

[@lisarm100]

I don’t feel her with him either. From the very first appearance

Dude, this dude tried to shoot 3 points and he missed it..

[@chelseafaler6853]

Brooklyn Collinsworth Rachel, and yes i noticed that first thing. He didn’t seem like he was ready to move for her in the beginning of the episode. She did.

[@a_noelles]

Seems like the whole point of writing her a new job somewhere else storyline. They needed a way to end them without making him a jerk so I'll be cool when him and Lucy get together later. Dating your friend's exes and your exes' friends is perfectly fine in these shows.

[@corywalker8551]

I just got done watching this episode. Very sad about this! I think Grace broke up with John for the wrong reason. Trying to make it work with her ex-husband just because her son is having a hard time doesn't seem reasonable to me. She'll just end up being bitter and unhappy and resenting both her husband and her son for her unhappiness. Divorce is legitimately traumatizing. Not discounting what poor Oliver is going through. It just seems like she jumped back in with her husband too fast if that's the only reason. Sometimes parents are better when they're not married to each other. At least Grace had the guts to do it to his face. In another comment, someone pointed out that John left Grace for the same reason when they were in college. For some reason, it feels different to me like John did the right thing where as Grace is getting back into an unhappy relationship just for the sake of her child. But, logically, that doesn't make sense. I mean, John didn't have to marry Sarah to help provide for Henry and be there for him. So, maybe he did the same exact thing and I need to think about this more. I don't know. I've never been in this kind of relationship before.

[@DarkLordDiablos]

While John and Grace were a great couple, I figured something like this was going to happen when her husband was introduced so I didn't mind it as much as when him and Jessica broke up prior to this. Saying that though I like him with Bailey and hope they keep their relationship going.

[@narayastarks]

if parents who arent in love anymore that get back together for the sake of the child never works. also your giving that child false hope. this happened to my siblings and i before and the outcome wasnt great

what a stupid reason to get back together with her ex. instead of talking to her kid and sending him to therapy so he can process the change, let’s ruin all his future relationships by teaching him a loveless marriage is normal.

[@wallsInc]

This always happens me 💔 with singles mom's they always go back to her children's blood father / baby daddy after he finds out she's dating again then he wins her back and they reconcile the relationship. It Don't matter if they'll either on good or bad terms. Hate do becomes love. It's does really really sucks but that's the dating game 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@faithjohnson7179]

[@rjperkins365]

Doesn't make a lik of sense. The worst thing to do is stay together for the kid. Then they're only taught how to have a bad relationship.

[@joehamlet7576]

On the other hand, if there is a chance that a family can get back together, I certainly would not want to be the guy that stands in the way of that. Them being a family again is a higher priority than her being my girlfriend. As he said, it's ok to put yourself second.
