** A lot of Holt and Jake's suspicions towards Kim could have been avoided if she had just been upfront and told everyone about why she picked the 99 and was honest about Wuntch contacting her. As a result, Jake accidentally releases her dog and wrecks her party, and she feels so unwelcome that she decides to transfer out of the 99.
** When Terry meets an ex-convict he put away who's working as a caterer at Kim's party, he expresses joy at seeing Terry, saying he thought about him every day and what'd he do when they meet again, immediately offering him some food after. As a result, Terry is extremely paranoid that he's trying to poison him and ends up putting all the food he gives him in his suit pocket. When the ex-con explains that he was trying to show Terry how much he changed, Terry immediately {{Lampshades}} how misleading the way the con phrased it was, only for the ex-con to point out that he spent the past few years with the a brick wall as his only conversation companion, so he ended up having NoSocialSkills. Terry admits that that's a fair point.
