Indeed, I really like when the episodes go outside the ordinary frame of the series, in this case, when the characters are not solving crimes or investigating. So I have to say that taking an interest in Jake's family pleased me a lot, and that it was a brilliant idea, even if other series have already tried the case. The story followed well, I liked the fact that there is a contrast between the two characters, knowing that Kate is rather delinquent, and that Jake is part of the NYPD. This story had a good ration of jokes, and it flowed well.
If we talk about the secondary stories, I would say that the two were not great, but they complemented each other well. On the one hand, the B-plot with Holt, Terry and Charles had a rather interesting story to follow, without a lot of jokes, whereas the C-plot was more joke-oriented, with a story being less memorable.
In short, I would say that this episode is still well done. The main story manages to juggle the jokes and the story well, making it all interesting to watch, while the two side stories, together, manage to entertain the viewer quite well. Without forgetting to mention, once again, that this Cold Open is simply unforgettable and cult!
