@@mr.ilikespammobileedition592 he was wrong, but for the right reasons. He fully believed he was looking out for terry's best interests, and wanted to protect him. But you cant improve the system this way either, and I think Terry correctly pointed this out that his daughters in the future wont be able to play the cop card and make this go away. At some point, you need to make a stand, and Holt was probably reminded of that. And even if it would hurt terry's future prospects, it's a risk worth taking. Holt just needed a moment like that to remind him that he isn't just a black cop, but he is a black cop in a position to make a difference, just like he always told himself he do should he be in that position.

[@WindReader]

Honestly one of the coolest moments is Hitchcock realizing exactly what went wrong. The guy is disgusting and insensitive, but even he knew just how wrong what happened to Terry was.

[@AG-yc7vt]

The unrealisticness is real. First off. When was the last time you saw a cop on a foot patrol that wasn’t a festival or city event? Next. Cops don’t profile anyone over 30. Why? Because most street crimes are committed by people under 30. Third, unless you’re in the Deep South you aren’t going to get racially profiled because every officer has a bodycam. And whichever news publication breaks the story will receive millions in ad dollars and licensing fees. And whichever agency is caught doing it gets a nice visit from the FBI or the Federal DOJ to clean house. Fourth, any large department with over 200 officers will have IA force you into being removed off the force. NYC and LA especially don’t play with that stuff.

It didn't feel woke bc it didn't feel forced. The situation was set up naturally, and the cop wasn't overly racist with everything. He was still racist, but they wrote him in a way that made it seem like he was just a regular dude. Like if was written more poorly then one could expect the cop to use more slurs or Terry mention unreasonable use of force or something. The dude apologized, albeit for the wrong reasons, but he still said sorry.

I remember seeing this episode for the first time and being so mad at that scumbag sorry excuse for a cop. And mad at Holt for trying to convince Terry not to speak up and try to make his community safer. It makes more sense now, knowing more about the corruption in police departments and the punishments the good cops can face for reporting the bad ones. I'm glad Holt did the right thing in the end. It's a shame Terry got prevented from being the Liaison because he wanted to make the community safer, but a bad apple spoils the bunch. And Terry cared about the "bunch".

@@ccshumshum8104 The show portrays what he says in a negative light and explains why he was wrong. You have to put in some serious effort to continue thinking that the racist cop was in the right, lol, which kinda says something about you? So, weird that I have to spell it out, but: - Terry was literally just walking down the street and when he approached the cop, non threateningly, the bad cop put his hand over his gun, immediately escalating the situation. - The guy was not responding to a call, so he just assumed that a black guy in that neighborhood was up to no good, despite having no prior information about any crimes, suspects, or anything of the sort. He was walking around a neighborhood for no reason, saw a black guy with a toy, and immediately jumped to the conclusion that he was doing something illegal. This is racial profiling. - He threatened Terry after he was complying with the cop's instructions. Terry said something while having both his hands behind his head and facing away from the cop. He then got cut off by the guy threatening him with violence by saying "keep talking and see what happens", which is obviously an abuse of the cop's power. Is talking illegal or threatening to the cop in any way? - The guy literally says "you and I both know that you don't LOOK LIKE YOU BELONG IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD". What's that suppose to mean, other than "you're black so you don't look like you belong in this affluent neighborhood"?

Episodes like this one are what set Brooklyn 99 apart from so many other sitcoms. This episode ends in a satisfying manner while showing that these situations don't just end with "the good guys win;" life is too messy and complicated for that. The writers always show that the people who have been wronged don't necessarily come out ahead, but they do emerge from the experience stronger and wiser. It's also worth noting that these episodes are really hard to do: you have to make sure that the show stays funny without making fun of the issue itself.

[@FallenOne669]

I don't watch a lot of Brooklyn 99, but my favourite thing about it compared to other sitcoms is that the characters feel like cops who are funny people, not comedians playing cops.

What I enjoy the most of this, is Captain Holt admitting he was wrong. Terry was right, in that Holt, of all people, should be aware of what its like to be in that position. And Holt *is* in a position to make a change now, and it would be an affront to not do something.

Terry mentioning "my girls wont be able to play the cop card" was a great argument to make as well.

Honestly, I usually only see "woke" being used in discussions about things like Disney blackwashing white characters or forcing a character's homosexuality down our throats. If every gay character was like Holt where being gay wasn't the central focus, there wouldn't be as much backlash. Obviously you'd still get some, but not nearly as much.

Well the term "woke" was created because of the injustice black people were facing at the hands of the police due to racial profiling and unprovoked shootings. Eventually other minority groups started to use the term to champion their own causes (which is totally fine).

What you have to worry about is that off chance that there is something bad going on. That’s why you investigate. But the other nine times are why you treat the other person with respect. You can carry out a respectful conversation at a distance that gives you a decent reactionary gap (forget the 21 foot rule, so many people have gotten shot over that), so you can keep yourself safe while also not making a potentially innocent person feel like a criminal. So do I understand the bad cop’s instinct to investigate? Yes. But I can’t in any way say that the way he carried out that investigation was the right way, or even a right way.

Why does a black man in a nice neighborhood seem out of place though?

[@JosephSchneider26]

​@@onkeyjoeWell, he was rummaging in a car at night. But that is of course no reason for a cop to start a conversation in such a hostile way. If you just passed by asking "Pretty dark for cleaning the car, isn't it?" and let the man answer properly, all the understandable information would have been gathered.

[@jarrellmckenna2988]

Here’s the issue with what you’re saying because inherently there’s nothing wrong with a cop asking a question..but what some may find suspicious differs between people . Like asking what a person is doing in the neighborhood sounds off putting

[@demisagoat]

That wasn't investigating, that was plain and outright intimidation, and you are excusing it

[@demisagoat]

​@@JosephSchneider26Or at all.

[@tobiaswalker7562]

If it was me, I would have called the racist cop into the Sergeant's office...and then lock the door on my way out.

"Very good prank. I totally thought I was gonna die."

GET WOKE SCULLY

[@brandonbarclay6218]

Oh damn this episode

[@josephhodges9819]

Just think if Sarge had gotten angry and resisted he might have been shot especially with his size because his size makes him as dangerous at that distance as any knife or gun.

[@themegadude900]

So this is where detective quinn went after dexter morgan fled from miami

[@MenelikTheFirst]

Looks like Quinn’s career went down the hole after Deb died.

[@bkcpisme]

Change from within has never happened.

[@bennywark3103]

"Get woke Scully" 😂

[@Gryffyth_Aurum]

THIS is how you do representation. THIS is how you do social issues and topical\current events and social commentary. Not the hamfisted farce that Hollywood is force feeding us frequently.

[@meems4378]

Or maybe youre just noticing social issues in your programming and it makes you uncomfortable. Social issues have been in everything from HBO to PBS for YEARS. Far more obvious than this too... Our super secret liberal agenda is WORKING BABY! No but seriously. Its always been there. Sometimes it's subtle, sometimes it's not.

[@gary9346]

Yeah! Hollywood is evil and bad and wrong! Unlike this show which is totally not made on a set in Hollywood....

[@PrograError]

Considering they scrapped a whole season to reworked it, it worked out well…

[@danbobway5656]

I just realized that the cop is the dude from dexter

[@mcgaming609]

Quinn returns to the job. Iykyk😂😂

[@TheRedDragon54]

Captain Holt was such a legendary Character

[@ultra6671]

5:47 Little Terry channels his power to summon a cop to come to his aid.

[@st0rts11D4]

Yah the bad cops I've ran into cover up their name tag and refuse to tell me anything. Never been able to file a complaint

[@MatthewWatson-b2l]

They really capture the reasoning of the cop to a surprising level of detail. It’s unclear whether he’s uncomfortable with saying he’s racist or is not consciously aware of it, but he genuinely doesn’t believe he did anything wrong. His excuses are so clearly thought out and defended with such sincerity. He sees himself as righteous, and therefore won’t admit anything because that would imply wrongdoing. It’s a very common process in law enforcement to rationalise unethical actions with ‘doing the job’. Brilliant script work.

[@mykahvaughn2068]

RIP Andre

[@nit3faux288]

I just made it to this episode

[@Soysaucemoto]

As an Asian man in America, that happened to me when I was in college. Turns out the cop needed a math tutor for his kid.

[@nadinehart8624]

This was so gorgeously done. Because we understand Terry’s anger, his sadness and his desperate desire for quick change but what was also beautiful was Holt’s hesitation. Because he is right and as someone who joined the force at a completely different time he did have to pick and choose his battles and contented himself with a longer game. Both are such real responses and were beautifully acted.

[@PrograError]

It also shows the paradox of the _Black Lives Matter_ and _Blue Lives Matter_ as a police... and across the ages... There's only so much they can do, and also should do.

[@brandontucker6958]

It's so ridiculous to me that being a good cop and policing other officers for breaking the law will get the good cop punished.

[@ALITPUMPA]

“Get woke” 😂

[@Magicmaker2300]

This is one of my favorite episodes in the whole show because it keeps the whole premise of the show while bringing up a serious topic.

[@AbyssScythe]

lol Terry Crews is playing Terry who could of saw that coming lmfao
