History Characters / BrooklynNineNineFamilyMembers

** At one point, he confesses that the total number of his sexual partners is probably in the low 400s, which he claims is "the low end of average" for pilots.

* FromTheMouthsOfBabes: "Moo-Moo" features two back-to-back examples, one PlayedForDrama and one PlayedForLaughs. Jake and Amy are thrown for a loop when the girls ask them, point-blank, if Terry got stopped by a cop because he's black, and if being black means they'll get in trouble, too. Later in the episode, they follow this up by asking what an orgasm is.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: After her birth she is mentioned occasionally (Terry mentions her by name in [[Recap/BrooklynNineNineS5E07TwoTurkeys Two Turkeys]] as her birthday was approaching and in another episode, he mentions having three kids), but never physyically appears at all while Cagney and Lacey do.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: After her birth she isn't mentioned at all and never appears with her older sisters.

* OverprotectiveDad: When he thinks Rosa and Jake are dating, he becomes visibly angered when he sees a photo of Jake and Amy together.

* OverprotectiveDad: He does a ton of research of Jake to make sure he's good enough for Amy. He also briefly loses his cool upon finding out that Jake and Amy have had sex. However, Amy eventually chews him out and lets him know how sexist and outdated this mindset is.

* NiceGuy: Much like Boyle, Nikolaj is sweet-natured and generous -- perhaps overly generous. In the ''Series/NewGirl'' crossover, it's Nikolaj who who ends up giving a big amount of money to Nick and Winston's failed busking act.

* NoPronunciationGuide: Everyone mispronounces his name, although that's only according to his parents (adopted and biological). To the audience it sounds pretty correct.

* TheDanza: L. Scott Caldwell's birth name is "Laverne Scott".

* SuperOCD: Amy says that he arranges the money in his wallet by ''serial number''.

* NoBisexuals: He doesn't believe bisexuality is a real thing. [[spoiler: He thankfully starts to come around on this point, though he says his wife will need more time.]]

* [[LikeFatherLikeSon Like Mother, Like Son]]: Like her son, she is an African-American person in a position of authority within US law enforcement, maintains a constant deadpan and stone-faced expression and enjoys intellectual pursuits like wine tasting.

* [[LikeFatherLikeSon Like Father, Like Daughter]]: He and Amy are very much alike, right down to the personality quirks and choice of profession. He even had a ponytail in the 90's.

* [[LikeFatherLikeSon Like Father Like Daughter]]: Rosa definitely takes after his tough, no-nonsense, yet sensitive demeanor.

* [[LikeFatherUnlikeSon Like Mother, Unlike Daughter]]: She and Rosa couldn't be any less alike.

* TheStoic: [[UpToEleven Even more than Holt]], which is surprising to even Jake -- he delivers everything he says in a monotonous tone, maintains a quiet job as part of a university faculty, and doesn't express much more emotion than his husband.

* ReallyGetsAround: He apparently has multiple children around the world, a fact that he only discloses to Jake while in the hospital.

%% * FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The foolish sibling to Jake's responsible sibling, which is pretty surprising.

-->'''Walter:''' That boat was the daughter I never had!\\
'''Roger:''' I was the son you ''did'' have!

* NeverMyFault: He's quick to blame Roger first for wrecking the gender reveal cake (despite Walter throwing the can of beer that knocked the cake over) and then for accidentally making the replacement cake green (despite Walter also helping bake the replacement cake).

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: While Terry is annoyed by Jake calling himself Sharon's Godhusband after being named godfather, Sharon can't help but crack up a little over it.

* HappilyMarried: Subverted -- the marriage part, not the happiness part. Despite loving Charles dearly, being committed to him, and even adopting a child with him, she has no desire to get married again, thanks to her nasty divorce.

* GenderBlenderName: Tina Boyle, a male Boyle cousin. It's short for Christina.

* HappilyMarried: To Victor. She brags to Jake's mom that she and Victor have never had a rough patch in their marriage.

* BlackSheep: Milton Boyle is apparently this, for being ugly and dropping out of college, in the eyes of the other Boyles. Actually, he is quite handsome and dropped out to become a professional snowboarder, and now has his own sports-wear company, and is involved in charitable organisations. Try telling any of this to Charles, though.

* PromotionToParent: One-sided. Jake asks him and Holt to be his fathers in "Safe House". However, despite his initial reluctance and disdain, Kevin does start warming up to Jake as the series progresses and even offer fatherly advice at times.

* PromotionToParent: One-sided. Jake asks him and Holt to be his fathers in "Safe House".

* TheStoic: [[UpToEleven Even more than Holt]], which is surprising to even Jake - he delivers everything he says in a monotonous tone, maintains a quiet job as part of a university faculty, and doesn't express much more emotion than his husband.

* ReplacementGoldfish: Played with, during one Halloween episode, wherein the squad tries to fool Holt by using a fake Cheddar. On a bigger level, a bit of this and TheOtherDarrin - the dog actor they use is different from the first to second and later seasons (in the first season, Cheddar is white and tan, and in the second he's black and tan, then back to white and tan in the third season) [[note]]The second and third dog actors are, respectively, Stewart and Stella. Stella was brought in as Cheddar because Stewart died.[[/note]].
