However, Monica can still show up in the episodes where she’s absent, continuing to enact her plans from the previous season.
However, with Bailey absent and two new rookies joining the LAPD,Miles and Seth could get a greater focus at the start of the season.This would give the team new recruits they can train up to deal with threats like Monica and Jason later on, establishing them as important contributors to the force. If they become involved in some of the show’s overarching storylines, they could add new perspectives and dynamics that keep the series feeling fresh.

Given how different the pair are going to be from one another,The Rookiecastis going to have plenty of way to develop their characters over the course of season 7. This could result in Miles feeling good about his new position on the LAPD, while Seth grows more confident in his abilities with more time in the field. With continued threats expected in the upcoming episodes, it should prove interesting to see how the new recruits react to getting thrust into their new careers.
