‘The Rookie’: Can Lucy Help Fix Tim’s Relationship With His Mother?

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for The Rookie Season 8 Episode 8 “Grand Theft Aircraft.”] To say that Tim’s (Eric Winter) mom, Joy (Sela Ward), visiting doesn’t get off to the best start for Lucy (Melissa O’Neil) is an understatement. After all, Joy has no idea that Lucy exists, let alone is living with her son, when she first arrives. But by the end of the Monday, February 23, episode of The Rookie, it’s looking like Joy’s relationships with both Tim and Lucy will be in a much better place going forward. Joy was supposed to be staying with Tim’s sister Genny (Peyton List), but she sends her to his place since she never stays with him.
