* ChafingAgainstTheDressCode: When newly-instated Captain Holt commands that Jake wear a tie to work, Jake protests this by first wearing the tie under his shirt, then by wearing the tie properly, but with a speedo instead of pants (which backfires when Holt calls the rest of the precinct to come look at the speedo). Deconstructed when Jake discovers Holt's past as a shunned, openly-gay detective who has had to fight to get his own command, realizing that Holt's reasons for a dress code are benevolent.
--> '''Jake:''' Oh my god, I just got the tie thing! [...] It's a uniform! We're a team! It's important to you, because you were kept off the team for so long, and now you're the coach, so you want us all to wear the same uniform.

->''"That's how we do it in the Nine-Nine, sir: catch bad guys, and look good doing it."''
Strict, rule-abiding Captain Ray Holt takes over Brooklyn's 99th precinct and immediately conflicts with free-spirited, cocky Detective Jake Peralta. Along for the ride are Peralta's straight-laced, overachieving partner Det. Amy Santiago, surly, aggressive Det. Rosa Diaz, bumbling, eager-to-please Det. Charles Boyle, neurotic, caring Sgt. Terry Jeffords, kooky civilian administrator Gina Linetti and Dets. Scully and Hitchcock as they attempt to catch a murderous meat vendor.
This episode premiered on September 17, 2013.
!!Tropes appearing in this episode:
* DroppedAfterThePilot: Daniels, the third veteran detective introduced alongside Scully and Hitchcock, doesn't appear again after this episode.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: As expected for a pilot episode.
** Peralta's is goofing off in an electronics store, making us believe that he's a bumbling detective: until it's revealed that [[BunnyEarsLawyer he got there before his partner and found a nanny cam which he used to ID the perp.]]
** Holt's is making Peralta repeat his dismissive impersonation of him for everyone to hear instead of chewing him out, and then ordering him to wear a tie.
** Gina's is telling Holt that she'll tell him the terms of Peralta and Santiago's desk if, among other things, she can use Holt's office as rehearsal space for her amateur dance moves. She then proceeds to go TooMuchInformation describing it.
** Jeffords gives one for the rest of the cast via flashback:
*** Santiago [[NobodyCallsMeChicken pours too much hot sauce onto her hotdog]] because Scully warned her it was hot.
*** Diaz intimidates Hitchcock into telling her that Scully got her a scarf for Secret Santa, and then further intimidating him into making him return it with nothing but a glare.
*** Boyle manages to turn eating a muffin into a series of minor physical disasters. He also gets another one in which he [[DoggedNiceGuy asks Rosa out]] to a showing of ''Film/CitizenKane'', which he considers a classic. She tells him it's terrible, which he [[YesMan immediately agrees to]].
* ExactWords: Peralta wears a tie because Holt told him to.
* MoodWhiplash: The stakeout is lighthearted and funny until Holt reveals that his homosexuality caused his career to stall. Peralta even drops his clownish behavior and apologizes for being insensitive.
* RealisticDictionIsUnrealistic: Lampshaded when Jeffords describes Peralta with: "The only puzzle he never solved was how to grow up." Holt calls it very well-put before Terry says he'd talked about Jake enough in therapy.
* TerribleIntervieweesMontage: Door duty, in which Peralta and Santiago are treated to a host of colorful (and unhelpful) neighbors.
* WithDueRespect: Peralta asking Holt why it took him so long to get his first command. Notable because this is the first time he shows Holt respect in the entire episode.
