The Rookie ‘Fake’ BTS Photos Make the Most Solid Fan Theory on Season 7 Finale

The Rookie season 7 is almost over, and the show’s fans think its cast and crew have been messing with them all along — this fan theory might make you consider this too.
Only several episodes are left for The Rookie ’s ongoing season 7, with fans already being suspicious about who the finale will eventually bring back to the screen.
The whole speculation went to a new level recently, proving that the crime drama series’ fandom will do whatever it takes to explore every corner of all the behind-the-scenes photos, previously published by The Rookie’s actors, to get as many clues as possible.
Ironically, the show’s creators previously made an attempt to trick everyone into believing that those pics served for nothing else but for pure distraction. It’s too late though — fans already have a theory to rely on.
The Rookie Fans Figured Everything Out Thanks to Season 7 BTS Photos
While the finale itself is still around two weeks away from airing, the show’s audiences went far in their research, connecting the dots about who will definitely return in the current season’s final episode or even earlier.
The whole theory, explained by Redditor eyslandgirl, relies heavily on pictures posted by Rookie’s cast and crew on social media, even though some of those were believed to be a red herring, hiding what’s really in store for the finale.
The user started off with Patrick Keleher’s Instagram post, suggesting that “he returns because BTS photos were posted of Patrick (Seth) filming IN UNIFORM riding with Nolan in mid-December”.
They also continued with several other characters like Tamara Colins who will “seemingly come into play with Seth” since “we have BTS photos of Dylan (Tamara) on set during the same week as Patrick (Seth)”.
What Others Say About Allegedly Fake BTS Photos Theory
The Rookie’s ongoing season is yet to prove who was right after all, but so far the theory has garnered a surprisingly fair amount of supporters in the same thread.
“Anyways I agree 100%. I think he’s [Seth’s] gonna sue with the help of Monica. She’ll be in the background coaching him on what to do. He will still have resentment towards Lucy and take Tamara hostage. I also assume Grey will assign Seth to John because no man in their right mind would assign him to Lucy again”, cIaudiaaa said.
“But this all makes so much sense. And especially with Bradford pics in the suit. We haven’t sent him in one before so I’m kinda hoping we can actually see him get examined on the stand”, ParsnipWonderful6151 added.
