Brooklyn Nine-Nine · Season 1, Episode 15

Jake Peralta, Raymond Holt and others in “Unfinished Business”

[Holt enters the Nine Nine to start work. His wrist is in a splint]

Whoa. What's with the cast?

I sprained my wrist.

[obsequiously] Oh no, what happened?

Don't worry about it, I'm fine.

Yeah, Jeez Amy. Back off. Leave the guy alone [he cranes his neck to check Holt is out of earshot] All right, huddle up, everybody. Bring it in, bring it in. [They all assemble] So he wouldn't say what happened, which can only mean one thing.

He's in a fight club?

No, he did it doing something he's embarrassed by. Like smiling. Only question is... how do you hurt your arm smiling?

Could be a sports injury. I sprained my wrist in college, playing field hockey.

[incredulous] Men's field hockey?

Yeah. It's much more violent than the women's game. We're not allowed to wear anything that protects our breasts.

[exiting his office] Attention, everyone! I can hear you speculating about the nature and origin of my injury from my office. I tripped over an uneven sidewalk. I did not think it was relevant to your jobs, the jobs you should all be doing right now. Get to work. [When everyone has gone back to their desks, he sidles up to Peralta and talks in hushed voice] Do you wanna know how I actually hurt my wrist?

Yes.

I was hula hooping. Kevin and I attend a class for fitness, and for fun.

[in surprise and amazement] Oh my God.

I've mastered all the moves. [holds up his phone to show Peralta a picture] The pizza toss, the tornado, the scorpion, the oopsie doodle.

[struggling to contain his glee] Why are you telling me this?

[slowly and deliberately] Because no-one... will ever believe you.

[He deletes the picture]

No, no! [Holt gives him a cruel smile and makes his way back to his office. Through his teeth] You sick son of a bitch.
