In the April 27th episode of The Rookie, lawyer Monica finally met her end after four wild years on the show. The double-crosser got shot down right after thinking she'd escaped with help from Aiden, wrapping up her run as a key player in the LAPD drama. Monica had dodged assassinations, prison stints, and even a woodchip over the seasons, making her takedown feel like the natural payoff to all. That chaos, showrunner Alexi Hawley promised actress Bridger Regan a epic Viking-style exit and a delivered big time. Regan, who's 44, told outlets she wasn't shocked at all, calling it inevitable since her character played with fire too long. Still, she got hit hard emotionally, feeling heartbroken that Monica never flipped back to the good side, despite the potential. Having that final scene left her an absolute mess, but she praised the writing for making it so raw and stunning, it highlighted how deep the character arc went, even in defeat.
