Jade Pettyjohn The Rookie | The Rookie Season 7 Episode 16 Cast

Welcome back to the channel.

Today we’re diving into a standout moment from The Rookie Season 7, Episode 16 — titled "The Return" — featuring a key guest appearance by Jade Pettyjohn as the character Aimee.

In this episode, Aimee is introduced as the girlfriend of popular influencer Tulsa Braeden. Together, the two stage a reckless livestream stunt that ends with their car crashing into a reservoir — all in the name of online fame. But this isn’t just another accident-of-the-week plot. Aimee’s role becomes central to a deeper commentary on the pressures of social media and the dangerous lengths people go to for attention.

As the episode unfolds, Angela Lopez (played by Alyssa Diaz) and Nyla Harper (Mekia Cox) step in to investigate and attempt to intervene. They confront Aimee about her choices, trying to reason with her and warn her about the risks involved. But Aimee doesn’t back down.

Instead, she doubles down — revealing that the entire event, including the crash and the fallout with Tulsa, was part of her plan. In a bold move, she flips the narrative, publicly shaming Tulsa Braeden and launching her own brand — Survivor Skincare — using the stunt as a twisted marketing campaign.

It’s a sharp and relevant storyline that puts a spotlight on influencer culture, the manipulation behind the scenes, and how social media can blur the lines between reality and performance. Jade Pettyjohn delivers a standout performance as Aimee, portraying a character who’s both driven and dangerously strategic.

Whether you love The Rookie for its action or its social commentary, this episode has both — and Aimee’s character leaves a lasting impression.
