* CastingGag: Once again he's playing a hypercompetent cop in a crapsack precinct. But rather than the CowboyCop that he was in ''Homicide'', in ''Series/BrooklynNineNine'' he plays ReasonableAuthorityFigure and TricksterMentor to the competent CowboyCop. Flashbacks reveal him to have been not unlike Pembleton when he was a Detective.
