This episode, for me, has the best cold open of them all. And this in a show that has some truly legendary cold openings - Santiago being late for work, babushka, marshmallows, Backstreet Boys, and so many more. But this one has, in my opinion, Captain Holt (Andre Braugher, RIP) at his absolute best. It is the kind of cold opening that the writers reach for only when they've seen what a performer they've got on their hands, and Holt is an absolute riot here (as are Jake with the cheek comment and Rosa with the subtle smiling and Wunch as her usual nemesis self).
The rest of the episode is decent too, though not a classic admittedly. Worth a rewatch for the opening alone!
