Plot Synopsis
This police comedy follows lead detective Jake Peralta and a diverse group of cops at the 99th precinct in Brooklyn. Captain Ray Holt finally got his own command after serving on the force for 30 years, and he's not going to let Jake -- or anyone else -- screw it up for him. The rest of the crew, who lack discipline because of the lax command of their former captain, include: Sgt. Terry Jeffords, the squad's next in command, who lost his nerve after his wife had twin baby girls -- Cagney & Lacey; Amy, a smart detective, who was a middle-school teacher before she became a cop; Charles, a recently divorced veteran detective, who looks up to the younger Jake and pins for Rosa; Rosa, a sexy and frightening police officer, who scares the other cops as much as she does the criminals; and Gina, the eccentric and self-absorbed civilian office manager at the station.
