Review –
One of Brooklyn Nine-Nine’s strengths
has always been its ability to juggle the comedy and drama. This is not an easy
task as it can be a tightrope trying to balance everything without it coming
off as half-assed. This week we get an episode that gets that balance right as
it jumps from fun to real serious, real quick.
So to set the scene, we open in a hospital as Amy (Melissa Fumero) comes to
meet Jake (Andy Samberg), thankfully he is not here on medical business but for
the police as there is a mob boss that survived a hit and is now in a coma. The
hope is that if Jake is there when he wakes up then the mob boss will give them
the info they could use. However, Jake has an ulterior motive, because there is
no idea when he will wake up, so he and Amy could share some time alone as it
is there anniversary and with their work schedule this is the best chance they
have. A case vacation or indeed a Casecation. Which is fine until a topic comes
up that neither of them were prepared to hear the other’s response. Now from here, we will be looking at the episode
as a whole, so there will be some [SPOILERS] ahead.
