'''''Beach House''''' is the twelfth episode of ''Series/BrooklynNineNine'''s second season.

The detectives of the Nine Nine are eager to head out to Charles' beach house for a weekend of boozy fun away from all their responsibilities. Putting a damper on things, however, is that Jake invites Captain Holt to join them after hearing that Holt never got to take part in similar get togethers when he was younger because of his ethnicity and sexuality. Now the detectives have to figure out a way to enjoy themselves without getting too out of control in front of their boss.

Gina spends the weekend trying to get Amy drunk so that she can see what happens to Amy if the detective goes beyond her self-imposed five drink limit and Charles helps a fretting Rosa send text messages to Marcus, Holt's nephew.

Also, Scully and Hitchcock have a harebrained scheme that they want Captain Holt to invest in.
