The Rookie | Tim Bradford • Control [+5x07]

And I'm back with a new show or more like a new man in my life. Oh, TIM BRADFORD WHAT CAN I SAY?! I love my little control freak, people pleaser and selfless man so fucking much!! I started watching the show last month, binged it in 3 weeks and now I'm obsessed with it. I LOVE all the characters but my favorite is Tim of course. And Chenford, do I need to talk about them?!? No because I already started working on a big video of them. So you're welcome 😂 I could talk about Tim for hours but it's 4am so I'm gonna shut up and save it for another time.
I hope you'll love the video.
ALSO, I FINISHED WATCHING THE SHOW WHEN IT IS ON A 4 WEEKS HIATUS, I HATE MYSELF AND I WANNA CRY...

I LOVE TIM AND I LOVE THIS!! also a perfect choice of song, he's a control freak with everything except for Lucy - she complete teaks away his control!!

[@tylerturner9329]

What a beautiful disaster those two are going too be

[@tylerturner9329]

Also, what song is this?

[@TheMainRed]

@@tylerturner9329 it’s in the description, Control by Natalie Taylor

[@fabiolaspn]

Thanks for reading the description. I never know if people do 😂 And it's the accoustic version, I forgot to mention it.

[@Sophia-dj8bl]

Well that aged well!

[@rossyexo-l9249]

Tim is my favorite character in the series (actually I would prefer him to be the lead) because he has quite a complex backstory and we've been able to see a lot of development that gives depth to the character. Also, his relationship with Lucy is the best. So glad another talented editor is obsessed with them THANKS!

[@mirandawhitten5254]

The one thing this show has done well is not give too much spotlight to the main character. We get to see huge developments with all the characters. I love that in shows. It keeps you interested

[@tammyboon6259]

@@mirandawhitten5254 I agree wholeheartedly!!!

[@JjJ-rz5tv]

We also didn't see much of tims backstory (aside from isabel) until lucy started getting behind his walls think season 4 is when we fully learned about his childhood....barely saw tims downtime (outside the job)

[@n.o.p.e3397]

Nolan is too soft and plain. His personality is weak. But Bradford is something different.

[@chill.itsjustdark]

BYE IT DIDNT SHOW ME THE WHOLE COMMENT AND I HAD A HEART ATTACK CUZ IT SAID HE QUIT

[@kelenadavis2490]

Lucy sees and understands him 🥺and she doesn’t judge him for anything and that right there is why he’s falling for her even though he doesn’t want to admit it

[@musicmakesone4846]

The hiatus sucks and the slowburn is real. But it's so GOOOD! Their actions make sense according their personalities. This was a beautiful tribute to Tim, can't wait to see more of him and Lucy in December.

[@segen1275]

Oh no no no this actually made me emotional. I adore Tim and this is just perfect. Lucy is Tim’s safe place to land and you captured that so beautifully ❤

[@S_P12]

Love how you sumarrised their relationship perfectly. 👌

[@theodoracornell7948]

This is beautiful I think it really displays how he is as a person and how his relationship both platonic and romantic with Lucy really broke him down and made him realise it is ok to not be in control all the time and sometimes there are things you cannot control but that doesn’t mean that they are bad.

[@suzettecyril7030]

That kiss made Tim confuse😂😂😂😂

[@tammyboon6259]

I was thinking that we see them not only get married but that Lucy gets pregnant!!!!! Mostly because Tim will be hilarious!!!!! Incredible overboard if Lucy was pregnant BUT see Tim freak out when Lucy goes into labour!!!!!! He would hilarious, the tough Tim who.likes control will be a wreck!!!!! Lol!!!! I hope this show goes as long as Bones. It took forever for them to get together, BUT it was well worth the wait!!!! AND they had a baby together. It was like Lopez. Lopez was actually pregnant SO decided to have her character be pregnant too than her & them hiding that her baby bump. The same with Bones. She got pregnant in real life & they decided to put to added into their story. BUT we got to see I think 4 more or 5 more seasons as a couple. Their engagement, wedding & her being pregnant and having children together. Booth was hilarious when she went into labour. And one other couple on the show, they both worked in the foresnic lab, not sure that's what it is called. So one couple who was married 1st, he was the funniest anchor when his wife went into labour & when she thought she was in labor due to Braxton Hicks labor. Tim's control & facade will be totally gone!!!!! BUT...he would be hilarious to watch. And if Lucy is holding his hand, he'd probably have the same expression or outburst when Lucy was taping & wiring him to be a hitman & suddenly she ripped the taped & Tim gave this huge 'OW, he'd probably to do the same if she squeezed his hand hard!!!!!!

[@marianafaccin4545]

I love Tim Bradford. He is my favorite character of The Rookie. I only watch the series because of him.

[@AvaAmarena94]

Wonderful compilation, gave me goosebumps all over!💞 Can’t wait to see what’s in store for them🙌🏽

[@JjJ-rz5tv]

I think when lucy commented about the tim tests after genny told the story about 7 yr old tim being dropped at the park with a compass, he felt destroyed, like does she think im like him bc of the tests, thats why during one of their key moments as i call them....hes like those dont make me like him, he 100% cannot live with her seeing him as he sees his dad, a monster, other commenters are 100% right Tim needed lucy to reassure him that he is not a monster also i think secretly tim needed that hug after talking to his dad , bc he was always anti pda for the most part like when lucy hugged Abigail after the events of day of death and he told her she was going soft by hugging ppl in uniform

[@Dragonomics42]

I love those few times when Tim is gobsmacked!

[@n09457]

Oh my gosh the last line with the shot of Tim was so good!! The parallels😭

[@fabiolaspn]

I wasn't sure about the quote a the end to be honest. I liked it when I edited the video but then didn't like it when I posted the video 😅 so thank you, now I know I made the right choice.

[@n09457]

@@fabiolaspn yes you definitely made the right choice😂 seriously tho this is such a good edit!

[@carolinehaws8334]

Love it 👏 what episode is it that tkm punches the wall, i dont remember that for some reason?

[@JjJ-rz5tv]

Second episode season1

[@tammyboon6259]

I LOVED that u did a video of just Tim! Sumone else said perfect song choice. Totally agree. But what I love & thot u did so BRILLIANTLY & BEAUTIFULLY is u show how complex & multi-dimensional Tim really is!. (Sum videos depict Tim as just this hard ass in Season 1 & then slowly changes) But 2 me, in season 1 u c how complex he is pretty fast. He maybe the most complex character of all of them?! Man, I'd love 2c u do a video on Lucy. U hve actually in a sense in 1 video, we c that both Tim but Lucy also is a control freak in her own way. Her struggle is much more subtle & understated. It took me 2c the scene & the ep. of Jackson telling Lucy, he knew abt her & Nolan's rel'ship all along & when he says, "U fell 4 a divorced guy just coming out of a 20 yr marriage b/c it was safe & not gonna last" I'd never seen that ep. til sum1 told me J knew abt their rel'ship & which ep. NOT til season 2. I bought it off of YT cuz I wz shocked & clearly missed it.. Lucy's control comes out the most in the last 2 episodes. In the end, I do think she needed Tim to take the leap b/c by her answer, she didn't think it wz worth the risk. Lucy, certain things in her remind me of myself. (However I definitely can't BUT wish I could kick ass like any of the women!!) But she's insightful & understands things psychologically & sumtimes b4 the others. The most obvious 2 me, is when they're trying 2 figure out why La Fiera would've gone thru the trouble of taking Lopez 2 Guatemala & why she'd keep Lopez alive. Lucy is the 1 who says, the "baby." That they bonded over motherhood & losing Diego would've devastated La Fiera. After Diego was killed, even Harper said, "he wz what kept her humanity." The scene after they arrested La Fiera, Lopez tells her that she is the 1 who is ultimately responsible 4 the death of her son. Lucy says, "She would've felt the most betrayed by Lopez & the ultimate revenge 4 La Fiera would be 2 take Lopez's baby." Tim knew she wz smart as the 3 r questioned abt the $$$ that wz stolen. Tim says, "It couldn't be Lucy, b/c she would've done it a better way 2 not get caught." Bishop says, "It sounds like u're proud of her " Tim replies, "All I'm saying is she's smarter than them." BUT it can also b what Lucy hides behind 2 protect her. When Harper wz trying 2 help Lucy after drugged & abducted, suddenly she says she's fine & rattles off all the therapy techniques she's gone thru. But Harper isn't buying it. BUT...I still understand why in Vegas she wz only partially being honest. Even Nolan had 2 tell her why she wz being so picky abt Jackson's room & paint color & says 2 her, "Lucy u're the most insiteful person I know. U've got 2c what's really going on here? Until u let Tamara know its ok 2 move on, she'll never feel like she belongs." Our greatest strengths are always also our greatest weaknesses.

Honestly, I can't decide which is gonna be more devastating for me...The fact that we have to wait until December 4th for the 2 hour-event of The Rookie's mid-season finale or the anticipation of the coming up Chenford video of yours??! Either way, we are holding our breaths!! 😥👏👏
