West Talks to Sgt. Grey About His New T.O. - The Rookie 

I love that Bradford didn't even double check what it was about. He knew exactly what the issue was and immediately had West's back.

“And yet the water is still above my head” I felt chills all over when West said this in response to “You stand on our shoulders”. This is powerful yet so painful. I am where I am today because of the sacrifices that were made by the ones before me. And yet I still need to fight for every single step I take forward.

Everyone can agree... Bradford would shatter Stanton in a heartbeat.

Jackson speaking truth to Grey was such a satisfying argument. “And yet the water is still above my head. So tell me sir, what were all your sacrifices for”. Damn that hit me hard.

I love how Bradford backs up West every second after this. He went from hating West to respecting him and having his back.

I like how Tim came in and said he will back up Jackson. He too has had enough of Superman's Crap..

"You stand on our shoulders" "And yet the water is still above my head" "So tell me this, sir, What were all your sacrifices for" DAMN

2:15 is the most important line in this scene. Good cops know who the bad cops are. They cover for the bad cops or turn a blind eye to what's going on, which in turn, makes good cops bad cops as well. Culture is the most powerful element in any social system and the culture inside policing is the biggest problem. You can not legislate culture away and no code of conduct can properly influence it. It is protected by the highest ranking officer down to officers on patrol. Until this is truly understood there is no fixing policing.

Bradford is changing for the better.

West has grown a pair of balls and I'm loving it😂

I love how Bradford is backing to Jackson

“And yet the water is still above my head.” It’s just chills

Two thumbs up to the writing and Titus Makin(Jackson West) performance in this scene, it was awesome watching him challenge the Blue Wall of Silence, and I also liked it when Bradford steps in to support him.

And yet the water is still above my head....damn I sat up straight when he said that. 🙏

The argument here between Jackson West and Sargent Wade Grey reminds me of Kevin Atwater and Sargent Hank Voight on Chicago PD Season 8 episode 1.

West literally always looks like he's on the verge of tears

Jackson is just a little super star this season. Gotta love Titus

This episode was just immaculate >> can’t wait till the rest of the other episodes

I got goosebumps when he said the waters still above my head. But I for a second felt that he should just take the win of his TO getting benched. But then I thought, its actually quite strong of him to not back down because it really isn’t enough.

Can we just take a moment to respect our good cops real quick, they actually put up with shit like this

I actually clapped my hands when Bradford came in and said what he said

Can’t wait to see our rookies as TO’s can mabey have a soon off as the officers that leave as detective

I wonder if Jackson’s dad will have to come and deal with Stanton. Does Stanton not know who his boot’s father is?

Claim if you're here before 1 million viewss

Melissa kern I love that Tim stood up for west

The Rookie TV Show totally changed after George Floyd's Murder...Sargent Bradford use to the cop on the "Edge", but he 100% changed and apologized for his attitude/actions.

Casting Brandon Routh as Stanton was a good idea, because he played Superman, and Captain Atom he's got such a wholesome image, and then to have him as the racist makes it really jarring.

“You stand on our shoulders.” “Yet the water is still above my head.” Dang, that’s a great couple of lines.

1:41, what Grey says about what he and West’s father put up with, with 25 years on the force, that would mean they both joined in the 1990s between Rodney King, OJ, and Rampart……yeah they joined at a bad time period and put up with a lot.

Cannot believe it's the same guy who played The Atom

I'm so happy to see Tim Bradford backing Jackson. Its about time white people, including myself, held each other accountable for our actions.

I can’t wait for more episodes I was so mad how he pulled over them

The Sergeant looks like the cop in GTA 5 If he had sunglasses on his Head

Ngl with how they were building the arrest scene I thought Jackson was about to pull his gun on Stanton lol could’ve been an interesting turn for show purposes but I’d assume since the show tries to stay closeish to proper cop work nothing good would come from it for his character lol From this whole exchange though I did really like how they made him go at Bradford as well because silence is complicity is a good message for everyone nowadays.

Love all three of these actors. Great show.

1:50-1:59 WHEWWWWWW WEEEEEEE

Be mad but he read the hell out of him with that come back. 😬

1:27WHY DID IT TAKE ANOTHER WHITE DUDE FOR THE BLACK GUY TO LISTEN...... THAT'S PATHETIC

This is an on going problem that needs to be addressed, he needs to fired and I would've sued the police for discrimination

l love ❤️ the rookie

Nice to see West getting some balls. Love his character development. he was such a wuss before. He's turning into a straight up Alpha.

This is a TV show but this issue is common and real. It's not only a racist thing either. So many cops develop a control complex. (The dare you to dispute anything I say right or wrong because I'm a cop.) I worked with guys like that before. There are good cops, maybe one day the good ones won't loose there jobs for outing the bad ones.

The system definitely sucks, stops good cops from holding bad cops accountable.

The Blue wall of silence is atrocious. When it’s plain to see people are innocent and I’m speaking no doubt 100% impossible they are suspect and get treated like animals and excessive force is used on them, it’s saddening.

Aren’t humans all the same? Just because you have more time than someone doesn’t mean that you’re always right

You gave them permission... The hardest thing to do is confront people over their bad behavior.

This is going to be good. I love Nolan and grey working together.

Universal/Ideal/Perfect equality exists in only three places: The brain, the heart & death

It's crazy seeing my old classmate on Tv. Titus I'm so proud of you. Fun fact was Prom prince in high school.

Gonna be heard this season

I'm a 47 year old white guy from Canada who's never seen this show yet "And yet the water is still above my head" is one of the greatest lines I've ever seen in any cop show.

The gospel by which we're SAVED. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (KJV)(1) Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL (good news) which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; (2) By which also ye are SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain (self). (3) For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that CHRIST DIED for our SINS according to the scriptures; (4) And that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE AGAIN the THIRD DAY according to the scriptures. READ, UNDERSTAND, BELIEVE (from the heart by FAITH) and be SAVED

West is a good officer he s the one I would put my trust in

Bro I swear I don’t understand how Stanton got to be where he was. Everyone in that office could hardly stand him and knew what type of person he was yet like West said here they just allowed it to go on. If it wasn’t for Jackson being there Stanton prolly would’ve killed a whole family for a false accusation, remember he pulled an actual gun on them for trying to defend their innocent son who is terrified cause he was just minding his business and got tackled and getting cuffed without any explanation of why. Then Stanton angry and either too stubborn or crazy to admit he was in the wrong got mad when they try to make things right with the family talking about “these people don’t respect the law” like bro fr believed that badge give him a free pass to hurt or arrest whoever. See and thing is there’s actually officers like this irl and that scares me that at any moment me or my little brother or any of my family would get profiled like that and a cop like Stanton would get a slap on the wrist for it while our family is traumatized and appalled that something like that happened to us.

This is how you write a story.

Was the actor who played the Srgt. The same one who was Jill Scott abusive husband in Why Did I Get Married?

poger make my Coment go Famuose

It irks me every time they call them a T.O. every department I've known its always F.T.O. if it was anything else you'd get called an idiot

Wow, I take back all I said about Bradford.

Grey knew Jackson was right

Wow

I hate how sergeant told them before if they felt someone was bad after Armstrong they should go to him and yet when they do, this is what the treatment they get. No wonder Nolan and Harper went behind everyone’s back.

God I am glad I have never seen this preachy ass show and thanks to this clip I never will.

Yes! “Yet the water is above your heads”

I'm just watching clips and already hooked, LOL 😂😂😂

This shit was so powerful to me and made me physically feel things

Why does West always seem like he's about to cry ?

Glad he decided to say something

This scene always did make me dislike Sgt. Grey. Like sure, have emotional control and respect the rules/procedures in your role as sergeant, great. But gosh-darnit, if you are going to spend more energy lecturing and confidently dictating to a young man about “whose shoulders you stand on”, and shrugging-off his observations as just “a lot of cops feel that way”, then you are only further assisting the issue, AND NOT helping to resolve it. Especially since (beyond the ethnic aspect of this), the entire family of a random person (who DID NOT fit the description) was harassed! L-move sir, L-move.

This must be a horrible show lol

It’s honestly disturbing how hard people like Sgt Grey will defend bad cops. I don’t get why he immediately dismiss everything Jackson was saying. And saying “a lot of cops think that way” like that makes it okay??? Obviously I know this is just a show but this exact thing happens a lot.

That awkward moment when you find out Stanton WAS Superman.

First

I actually teared up when I watched this

He has a damn good point

Excuse me son. You heard me

THIS IS REAL... the fact that cops do these things in real life is scary. I don't wanna be anything affiliated with a cop because I don't wanna end up on the wrong side of things trying to take down racists and violent people. I mean a whole department can stage my death and I wouldn't even see it coming... plus that would be the only job I qualified for as I'm also a veteran and this country doesn't like hiring war vets

Great...how is this show going to be ruined this week?

Bradford is my favourite character on the show.

really people you get a veteran actor to playon the show and you give his character this just frustrated with this

Come to my house

Back when the Rookie was good vs now which is nothing Chenford.

I think people don’t understand how frustrating it is to see that racism is something we don’t punish. We literally punish homelessness like literally someone not having or being in a home is now being criminalized. But something like racism that is 100 percent harmful, isn’t. Just some bs as PoC it’s all bs

I didn't like how they killed him but now I'm glad he's gone. He got the racist cop ark he wanted and still complained enough that he forced himself an exit from the show. Good character and story ark but terrible actor

Jackson is a complete joke in third season. He was a token character for representation in first two seasons, but he had his few moments to shine, but in the third he completely turns into a fucking tool for creators for apeal to poc/gay/etc. He's not a fucking character at this point. This is one of the reasons why i hate third season so much.

Jackson is probably the last person who should be talking about silence when this is the same dude that froze twice on the job and the other cops brushed it off and covered up for him.

Love how their making the show more about everyday life

oh its take a white guy for grey to listen and do something bc if Eric didn't join grey would've dismissed the whole thing.

Весь третий сезон посвящен тому как белые рассисты угнетаю бедных, святых черных наркоманов и бандитов.

What the song at 2:35?

So correct in so many ways.

That little brother Stand for justice ⚖️😅 and humanity way to explain how every police officer should be acting towards the civilian..

Rookies think they know everything, pretty much how the job is now a days.

STANTON should've been given another chance just kidding

Great scene. Would have been amazing without the struggle music. 🙈

I hated West's character. I was so happy to see him go.

Damn, they’re getting more obvious in they’re pro cop propaganda

Dude Bradford is badass

This is my 3rd little clip of this show and I’m intrigued. I will definitely be catching up. These issues must be addressed.
