History TearJerker / BrooklynNineNine

* While there is a lot of humor and both are somewhat honorable in this episode, there is a rather sad tone to the episode "Hitchcock & Scully" S 06 E 02. The titular characters were similar to stereotypical action heroes who were extraordinarily competent, attractive , and cool even develop a serious eating disorder ( which is treated as a joke by everyone around them ). They were also addicted to cocaine (very common nowadays, even more so in the 80s). They gained a lot of excess weight, a barrage of health problems and their minds degraded to the point where they were almost mentally retarded most of the time. Even the main characters, who have known them intimately for many years, don't respect them, don't want them around and perhaps don't even consider them friends---at best, friendly acquaintances. Their wives have left them and their families don't seem to want them around (Scully mentioned having two kids that cut him out of their lives). The Nine-Nine folks didn't even seem aware of the fact that they were supercops who literally look like they're straight out of an action movie. That would explain why they're so inseparable: after many years of wild adventures, they've all abandoned them and they're ALL that's left of each other (both to keep each other company and also why they both genuinely admire each other and can see yourself as all that's left are your old selves). His extraordinary lost potential and fall from grace are strikingly similar to real-life people affected by his addictions and life issues and the episode itself and the characters treating him like "Wow, what a surprise" and never talking about it again only serves to show how people, even those closest to the two and extremely impressed with how awesome they used to be, care little about it, already finding them hopelessly pathetic and unpleasant. This puts MANY of his lines in a different light, especially those that imply serious mental illness and complete resignation to their horrible, lonely, bankrupt, aimless lives. Undoubtedly a serious and extremely accurate real-life Tear Jerker and Nightmare Fuel case of how people change over time and that's not always (if not rarely) a good thing!

--->Holt: I know things aren't exactly where you want them to be right now, but I promise you, they will improve. Every time someone steps up and says who they are the world becomes a better, more interesting place. So thank you.

* In "The Party", we find out why Kevin forbids cop stories at his and Holt's house -- it's not the stories, it's the ''cops''. As Holt's longtime partner, he's been forced to watch his husband deal with the endless crap being piled on him for his race and sexuality by the NYPD, to the point where he's grown to resent the police. There's a good deal of real life subtext too, the NYPD does ''not'' have a good track record with either internal corruption or public relations, and is only slightly edged out by the LAPD in the sheer amount of complaints they've gotten.

* Although there is a lot of humor and the two are somewhat honorable in this episode, there is a rather sad tone to the episode "Hitchcock & Scully" S06E02. The titular characters were similar to stereotypical action heroes who were extraordinarily competent, attractive and cool until they developed a severe eating disorder (which is treated as a joke by everyone around them). They also had a cocaine addiction (Very common these days, more so in the 80's). They gained a lot of excessive weight, a barrage of health problems and their minds degraded to the point where they were almost mentally retarded most of the time. Even the main characters, who have known them intimately for many years, do not respect them, do not want them around and perhaps do not even consider them friends, at best, friendly acquaintances. Their wives have left them and their families, if any, don't seem to want them around. The Nine-Nine people don't even seem to know the fact that they were super-cops who literally look straight out of an action movie. This would explain why they are so completely inseparable: After many years of wild adventures, everyone has abandoned them and they are ALL that is left of each other . Their extraordinary lost potential and fall from grace are eerily similar to the real-life people affected by their addictions, and the episode itself and the characters treating it just like "Wow, what a surprise" and never talking about it again just goes to show how little people people , even those closest to the two of them and extremely impressed with how amazing they used to be , cared about it , already considering them irretrievably pathetic and unpleasant . This puts MANY of their lines in a different light, especially those that imply serious mental illness and complete resignation to their horrible , lonely, aimless lives . Without a doubt a severe and extremely accurate case of real life Tear Jerker and Nightmare Fuel of how people change over time and that is not always ( if not rarely ) a good thing !

* There's a sad undertone to the comedy of "Hitchcock & Scully", the titular characters were akin to stereotypical action heroes until they developed an eating disorder. They gained excessive weight and a barrage of health problems. Their lost potential and their fall from grace is akin to real-life people affected by their addictions.

** Kevin is in a state of utter despair through the entire ordeal. In particular, he is unable to retrace his and Cheddar's steps at the park without breaking down into tears and reminiscing about Cheddar's favorite activities and even addresses Cheddar in the past tense, clearly afraid that the worst has happened. He also uncharacteristically becomes just as overprotective as his husband, to the point of buying trackers to put on Cheddar as soon as he is found.

** Rosa quitting the force following the murder of George Floyd and distancing herself from her former squad mates.

*** Jake helps Rosa find bodycam footage of two officers abusing their power, and while it gets the charges dropped against Rosa's client, [[KarmaHoudini the officers are not fired or even reprimanded]] because it'd be too much of a hassle for the Precinct's Captain or the Police Union.
*** Jake's sad resigned "...Yeah" at the end of the episode. He and the 99 (and by extension the showrunners) can do what they can to combat racial injustice and police brutality, but it's a much bigger issue that doesn't have an easy answer.
** Jake nearly jeopardizes his friendship with Rosa by insisting that her resigning is hurting him and their years in the Academy. Rosa has to point out she didn't make this decision to hurt him, and things change. When they were in the Academy, they knew nothing about the corruption within the system. She also may be a BloodKnight but that's ''way'' different from beating up or murdering an innocent person. It's not until Jake apologizes for being a selfish jerk that Rosa forgives him.

** Really, their entire arc in the episode could basically be boiled down to [[AdultFear two parents being faced by the kidnapping and endangerment of their child]].
