In the photo, Nathan was holding a plain white T-shirt with a green post-it note pinned to it. The label read: "Nolan, to be fireproofed," and he captioned the post: "My wardrobe for this episode. Quick question: Is 'To be fireproofed' the same thing as 'Not yet fireproof'? And also, WHY DO I NEED TO BE FIREPROOF? #therookie #lastheeverposted."

There's lots to look forward to in season four

The Rookie season three ended on a cliffhanger finale which saw Angela Lopez (Alyssa Diaz) and Wesley Evers' (Shawn Ashmore) wedding plans interrupted. Pregnant bride-to-be Angela went missing shortly after arch-enemy La Fiera (Camille Guaty) made her escape from prison.

Fortunately, viewers won't have to wait too long to get answers as the police drama will return to screens at 10pm ET/PT on Sunday 26 September on ABC.
