Santiago, Peralta and others in “Unfinished Business”

If I'm ever going to make captain, I need a good mentor; I need my rabbi.

Sorry, dude, but this new guy's gonna be a washed-up pencil-pusher who's only concerned with [robot gestures, robotic voice] following every rule in the patrol guide. Meep morp zeep, robot captain engaged!

[standing right behind Peralta] Is that what you think?

[stands up, turns around, smiles] H-hey! New captain alert! [looks around, laughs awkwardly] You must be the new C.O.! I'm Detective Jake Peralta, great to meet you—

Now don't let me interrupt, you were describing what kind of person I'm going to be. I'd like you to finish.

Nah, that's not necessary. [Holt looks back, stone-faced] Or I could recap, very quickly, sure! Um, let's see, I think I said some joke about you being a washed-out pencil-pusher—

Now do the robot voice. The robot voice you were doing when you implied I'm a rule-following robot. I want to hear it again.

[looks around nervously, speaks more quietly, does robot gestures] Um, meep-morp. Zarp. Robot!

That's a terrible robot voice.

Yup.

The next time I see you I'd like you to be wearing a necktie.
