Scenes with Terry Jeffords 38

Terry

Hi. Remember me?

[Kuzkho, who escaped arrest twenty years ago by pretending he was paralyzed, is standing normally at the door of his apartment.]

DKDmitri Kuzkho

So... this is weird.

[Kuzkho tries to slam the door but Terry blocks it and tackles him.]

Terry

Oh, no you don't, circus trash! I knew it! You could walk the whole time! I was right about the cat accomplice too, huh?! Now where's the cat?!

Been twenty years, Sarge, cat's probably dead.

Terry

I'M STILL BRINGIN' 'IM IN!

[The lights in Diaz's apartment go out while the detectives are trying to interrogate Bob.]

Time's up. Looks like Figgis found you.

[Cut to several minutes later.]

Terry

Okay. Door's secure.

That's the last of the candles.

Terry

Is that multi-wick? [Sniffs] Am I smelling basil and tangerine?

It's called Summer's Kiss.

Terry

What the hell is goin' on with you?

I hate to rub it in, detectives, but I told you they'd find me.

[A red laser dot is being aimed into the room.]

Terry

SNIPER, EVERYBODY DOWN!

[The laser dot moves towards Bob and aims steadily at him.]

Whoah! Whoah, whoah, whoah! Wrong guy, wrong guy!

[Jake tackles Bob as the glass vase behind him shatters.]

Terry

Stay away from the windows!

Captain! Table!

[Jake and Holt get a coffee table and turn it on its side, and they and Bob take cover.]

My God! What the hell's going on? They tried to kill me! [Two more vases shatter.] Oh, we have to get out of here and we have to get out of here now.

It's cool. I have a panic room.

Terry

Yes! There's the Rosa I know! Summer's Kiss my ass!

But it won't fit all of us.

Well, looks like Bob's the odd man out. Bye, Bob!

Well, frankly, I pity the lot of you. You look out there and see a problem, I look out there and see an opportunity. I'm gonna slide on that slippery floor all the way from Holt's office to the elevator.

You're gonna do the F.B.P.!

That's right, Rosa. I'm doing the Full Bullpen!

[Jake prepares by stretching. Terry puts on Jake's helmet and Amy kisses Jake before strapping him on.]

Here we go.

[When Gina waves the starting flag, Jake slides across the floor to the tune of Starship's "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now". Everyone cheers him on.]

Terry

[in slow motion] Yes!

[Everyone continues to root for Jake until he arrives at the elevator, which opens. Holt is inside to everyone's horror.]

BTBoyle, Terry and Diaz

[in slow motion] Nooooo!!!!

[in slow motion] OOOOHHH!!!

[in slow motion] What?

Hold on, I can't stop!

[Jake collides with Holt and the elevator closes. Everybody cringes. The elevator opens again and Holt and Jake exit. Holt grabs Jake's hand and raises it up.]

THE FULL BULLPEN!

VVeronica

All right, everyone. As you know, the NYPD intends to shutter one precinct in Brooklyn. I'll be evaluating the 9-9 and sending my findings to the Deputy Commissioner. Any questions?

Terry

Yeah. Veronica, are you sure you're the best person for the job, given your and my...

Sexual past?

Terry

[visibly annoyed] Thank you, Detective Boyle.

VVeronica

Sergeant Jeffords, don't be silly. I won't let our past interfere with my assessment in any way, whatsoever.

Well, that's certainly good to hear.

VVeronica

I mean, sure, it took me years of intense therapy to get over, and it's given me a fear of intimacy that has affected every subsequent relationship. But that does not mean that I cannot remain unbiased.

The way you say that, it kind of makes it sound like you actually are biased.

VVeronica

[Menacingly] I have no idea what you mean. That is all.

VVeronica

Terrence.

Terry

Veronica, I'm sorry for how I handled our breakup back in the day. I was trying to be a good guy. To be nice. But sometimes, to be nice someone means you have to be honest with them. Even if it hurts their feelings.

VVeronica

Thank you for saying that.

Terry

Now, you don't have to forgive me. But could you please at least give the Precinct a shot?

VVeronica

I would love to do that!

Terry

Oh, thank you so much!

VVeronica

Except I already turned in my report.

Terry

Oh. Was it- positive?

VVeronica

No. It was real bad.

Terry

I see you filming, Linetti! What's in the yogurt?

Normal stuff. Nothing you'd use to make a sidewalk with.

Attention, squad. I just got word from Peralta and Boyle.

Did they make their bust? Did they save the precinct?

No, they decided to bring in a bigger fish. They're not gonna make the hearing.

So Jake's doing the right thing instead of the selfish thing? [To Amy] You did this to him.

Look, I know we want this precinct to survive, but I'm proud of them. Loyalty to your friends and fellow officers is important, but what's more important is our loyalty to this city, and its citizens. I guess what I'm trying to say is... let's go get drunk.

[The detectives are meeting at a bar after the 99th Precinct was saved at the last minute]

Apparently the community came to our aid. There was a swell of online support orchestrated by an organization called "Ginazone".

I think you mean "Ginazon". I was behind the bar the whole time. Another great Gina Linetti entrance.

BBartender

I told you- you can't be back here.

And I told you- I already am!

What did you do?

I was live-streaming a prank when Captain Holt made his big speech about how you did the right thing for the city. I guess people were moved, they were like, "What can we do to help?" and I said "Call the Commissioner's office."

The G-Hive is real! I can't believe you did it! Gina, you're a legend! To the Nine-Nine!

HTHolt, Terry, Scully, Hitchcock, Amy, Diaz, Boyle

To the Nine-Nine!

[Everyone drinks the toast but immediately spits out the beer bottles' contents.]

[live-streaming the prank with her phone] Y'ALL JUST DRANK CEMEEEEENT!

Terry

So how's prison?

Nobody likes cops in here so I had to earn their respect by starting a bunch of riots, I got thrown in solitary for a week, what's going on with your face?

Terry

I hate seeing you like this so I'm flexing my eyes real hard to keep from crying. It's okay, we can still have a normal conversation. So, how's the food?

Pay no attention to him, Rosa. He's very emotional, Rosa.

Why are you saying my first name?

Well, Rosa... I read an article on the medical journal that said one destabilizing aspect of incarceration is the constant dehumanization, Rosa. You need to be reminded that you're more than just a number, Rosa. You are Rosa... Rosa.

Yeah, that fixes prison.

Terry

Is there anything we can do to help you? Anything you need done on the outside?

No, I'm good.

Terry

It's not a problem...

...Rosa.

Terry

We're here for you...

...Rosa.

Terry

Whatever you need...

...Rosa.
