Brooklyn Nine-Nine: Bureau

April 13, 2016 10:41 AM - Season 3, Episode 22

The penultimate episode of the season features guest star Dennis Haysbert as a Holtalike FBI agent who offers to help them get the file on ScarJoe.

And of course, the heist ends with a double-cross.

Just caught up with this a moment ago. I wish they'd do more serialized arcs, because this was awesomely fun. The double cross was admittedly kind of obvious in the moment, but otherwise the whole heist plot was really well done. Whoever thought to juxtapose Holt's Sex & The City monologue with Rosa and Jake's action vignettes deserves a medal.

It also occurs to me that in planning the FBI heist, they gave Holt the flirty distraction role, which meshes with his status as a Total Samantha.

Not a fan of the Texas prison plot line. Every scene there I wanted them to get back to the other two good plots.

I wish I could favorite this comment more than once. I LOL'd.

Rosa's facial expressions during the Bob & Holt exchanges were just the best.

Holt and Bob's dialogue is ... Actually both actors are - I need more superlatives ...

Just hopping in two years late to say that Holt's Sex and the City monologue was a work of comedic genius
