* FreezeFrameBonus: When Bob picks up the envelope Jake placed on the cart, he's holding in the crook of his arm a bunch of files with a stack of papers on the outside, a brown folder in the middle, and a yellow envelope on the inside. When he turns around from the guard's desk, however, he's holding the brown folder on the ''outside'' and the stack of papers in the middle. This becomes very important later.

With Amy and Charles busy trying to get close to Maura Figgis in Texas, the rest of the Nine-Nine tries to make progress in identifying Jake's unidentified corrupt FBI agent. Holt calls in Special Agent Bob Anderson to help them out. But when traditional surveillance doesn't yield any useful information, Jake comes up with a novel plan: break into the FBI's New York office!

Meanwhile, Amy has successfully infiltrated Maura's prison gang but can't get Maura to open up. Charles, however, unexpectedly finds himself in Maura's crosshairs.

Also, Terry suspects that someone at the Nine-Nine is leaking information to the press and enlists Gina's help in finding the culprit.
