He and Boyle (Joe Lo Truglio) track a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> of elaborate clues that prove it really is the guy Jake\u2019s been trying to put away, but just as the investigation starts to get interesting, Jake has to step away to take care of Mac. Meanwhile, Amy experiences the same thing as she tries to prepare for her presentation, but she can\u2019t get everything down before she, too, has to step away. At one point, both Amy and Jake realize they forgot their son at daycare!<\/p>\n<p>Jake says they could just leave Mac watching TV for a while, but Amy\u2019s reluctant to leave care of her child to a screen. All their babysitters are busy, and so are their family members, so they\u2019re forced to look to the public for babysitters \u2014 and all the applicants are darned creepy. Meanwhile, the killer Jake\u2019s been trying to catch goes after Boyle, leaving clues for him to find and breaking into his house. Boyle\u2019s not in danger, really, though, and Jake\u2019s mostly just bummed that his nemesis seems to have moved on. Oh, and the family winds up getting lice, because Mac\u2019s daycare had a lice problem.<\/p>\n<p>Things come to a head (ha!) as the duo bring Mac into the precinct and leave him in Hitchcock\u2019s (Joel McKinnon Miller) care. Jake and Boyle get a recording of Mac crying from the killer and realize they know who it is \u2014 it was one of the creepy applicants for the babysitting job. Boyle says they have to go get him, but Jake stays behind to be with his son.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1009851\" style=\"width: 1022px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1009851\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1009851\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/brooklyn-nine-nine-season-8-episode-4-balacing-holt-rosa-1012x570.jpg\" alt=\"brooklyn nine-nine season 8 episode 4 balancing holt rosa\" width=\"1012\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/brooklyn-nine-nine-season-8-episode-4-balacing-holt-rosa-1012x570.jpg 1012w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/brooklyn-nine-nine-season-8-episode-4-balacing-holt-rosa-450x253.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/brooklyn-nine-nine-season-8-episode-4-balacing-holt-rosa-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/brooklyn-nine-nine-season-8-episode-4-balacing-holt-rosa-1420x798.jpg 1420w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/brooklyn-nine-nine-season-8-episode-4-balacing-holt-rosa-1014x570.jpg 1014w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/brooklyn-nine-nine-season-8-episode-4-balacing-holt-rosa-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/brooklyn-nine-nine-season-8-episode-4-balacing-holt-rosa-570x321.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/brooklyn-nine-nine-season-8-episode-4-balacing-holt-rosa.jpg 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1012px) 100vw, 1012px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1009851\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">NBC<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>For Amy, things aren\u2019t going so well. With everything falling apart she hasn\u2019t had time to dress or prepare much for her presentation, so it seems funding will go to the uber-attractive competition. Or at least, that\u2019s how it would\u2019ve happened if Terry (Terry Crews) wasn\u2019t there to spill some strategically-placed water all over the guy, making it look like he had an <em>accident<\/em>. Thanks, Terry!<\/p>\n<p>While all of this is going on, Holt (Andre Braugher) and Rosa (Stephanie Beatriz) have a heart-to-heart about Holt\u2019s marital problems. Or at least they do once they\u2019re both drunk\u2026 and Holt realizes the next day that he sent his ex-husband an, uh, <em>inappropriate<\/em> photo. He and Rosa go to his house to delete the photo from his email before Kevin (Marc Evan Jackson) can see it, but in the end, it doesn\u2019t matter \u2014 Rosa points out that Kevin seemed to want Holt to stay when they were inevitably caught in the house, and the couple ends up exchanging sexy texts anyway.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, all is well and Mac even hits a milestone: He stands up, which was something Amy was worried about (he was behind other kids his age). The parents are overjoyed, and work takes a backseat as they celebrate their family.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Brooklyn Nine-Nine<\/em>, Thursdays, 8\/7c and 8:30\/7:30c, NBC<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
