His unsolvable (yes, I'm going to use that as a noun) was how to handle the discomfort of seeing Amy with another man. Jake himself was dealing with "unsolvables " in his life. There's a parallel to be drawn between Jake's situation and the case itself. They had to deal with the case differently to crack it. All they really needed was a new lead and perspective. He immediately gave up his well-earned weekend off, dragging Terry along with him to work on an unsolvable case an eight-year-old homicide with minimal evidence. Unfortunately for him, his joy of victory was short-lived as soon as he found out that Amy was going on a weekend date with her new boyfriend, Terry, who we met in Brooklyn Nine-Nine Season 1 Episode 19. Jake was on a roll, having broken the precinct record for the most closed cases in a month. We saw Captain Holt's no-nonsense face, but we also saw the pleasure he took in torturing Jake. In every cold open, there's enough to let you know who these people are and why they're so funny. The brilliant thing about these opening scenes is that they tell you everything you need to know about these characters in about 90 seconds. Holt: Because no one will ever believe you. This week's had me in stitches, with Holt showing Jake pictures of how he sprained his wrist hula-hooping - but only after telling the rest of the precinct that he tripped. Before I get to the stories, though, I have to talk about that cold open.
