While her parents weren’t fully excepting of Rosa’s sexuality, it was a sweet moment when she hugged her father Jake and crew treating Rosa as a family at the tail end of the episode was even more heartwarming. From Rosa awkwardly pretending to be Jake’s boyfriend to explaining bisexuality on game night, this subject felt authentic and Stephanie Beatriz was excellent at balancing the different emotions she had to display through the 30-minute episode. Brooklyn Nine-Nine has an excellent way of incorporating important topical issues into their storylines and this was no different. The focus of this episode was Rosa finally coming out to her parents, one of which happens to be Danny Trejo.
The B-Story of Captain Holt trying to find the pie culprit was another welcome distraction and Andre’s Braugher deadpan humor was put to good use here, though Hitchcock and Scully being useful was a nice (and funny) surprise. The storyline of feuding parents is nothing new however, the situation became increasingly funny, especially when Jake and Amy intentionally got their parents drunk. Speaking of which, Bertila Damas and Jimmy Smits perfectly matched the energy of Sagal and Whitford.
Sagal’s role could’ve been a bit spicer however, the veteran actress has a few funny moments throughout her interactions with Amy’s parents. It’s hard to go wrong when you have the comedic talents of Katey Sagal ( Married…With Children) and Bradley Whitford ( The Cabin in the Woods and Get Out), with Roger Peralta shining as the dim-witted cheating husband. Remember folks, there are downsides to alcohol! This season, the thanksgiving episode stole the show (sorry Halloween) with Peralta and Amy’s parents meeting for the first time ever. Bonus points for the cold open, as Charles dreaming about the return of his best friend returning home was laugh-out-loud funny. Jake’s story was also filled with riotous moments, from his cannibal roommate to adjusting to life in prison and trying to not get stabbed, this was a great way to start off a promising season. That allowed Rosa to take advantage of both men’s generosity, which resulted in some of the show’s best moments. Capital Holt repeatedly saying Rosa’s name was hilarious as was Terry trying to mask his feelings for her incarceration. This provided a fun change of scenery for Brooklyn Nine-Nine and the storylines with both Rosa and Jake provided plenty of laughs. Let’s not waste any more time and check out the top five episodes of season five. To celebrate this amazing show, we’ll count the five best episodes of seasons one through seven.

And, yeah, he found someone else on his boats, and I didn’t know for a couple of months.Brooklyn Nine-Nine recently said goodbye with their final season officially in the can. It was right when the show is coming out, it’s obviously a lot going on in our lives. So, it was impossible for us to see each other. “It was in the pandemic had just happened. “Yeah, we were, you know, working on different boats,” White told Us Weekly in July. White later claimed Checketts had cheated on her, but he never acknowledged the accusations. The details surrounding all of it I am trying to keep a little private just out of respect to him and I. She continued, Yes, Tom and I have split. I don’t do a lot of Instagram Lives, so I thought I would send out a message in my own words.” Baker celebrated White’s birthday in July with a sweet post on Instagram. “My personal life seems to be quite the topic at the moment,” the Bravo personality began her statement on Instagram. The new “Below Deck” romance comes after the Florida native confirmed in September 2020 that she and now-ex-boyfriend Tom Checketts broke up after more than a year of dating. White, 31, has yet to post about Baker on her account. Last month, Baker, who was an engineer for Season 6 of the Bravo show, posted a birthday tribute to White and wrote, “HAPPY BIЯTHDAY to the Moon Boot Queen herself ? ILY.” Their co-star Courtney Veale freaked out over the PDA photo, commenting, “You guys just broke the internet” and followed up with an “OMG” and some fire emojis. He captioned the picture with a simple black-heart emoji. “Below Deck Mediterranean” stars Malia White and Jake Baker confirmed they’re dating with a kissing photo posted to his Instagram Saturday. ‘Below Deck Med’ alum Hannah Ferrier claps back at plastic surgery rumors
