"Jake and Sophia" is the sixth episode of the second season of the American television police sitcom series Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
The episode was seen by an estimated 3.99 million household viewers and gained a 1.9/5 ratings share among adults aged 18–49, according to Nielsen Media Research.
Rosa (Stephanie Beatriz) urges Amy (Melissa Fumero) to run for union rep to replace an incompetent Scully (Joel McKinnon Miller).
Despite initially refusing to intervene, Holt encourages Amy to run as he had to challenge higher authority multiple times on his path to becoming Captain.
Amy decides to run and even gets Scully's approval when she agrees to bring back party subs to union meetings.
Meanwhile, Boyle (Joe Lo Truglio) and Gina (Chelsea Peretti) fight over a non-refundable hotel room reservation they made before they ended their affair, resorting to a number of dirty tactics against each other.
They both get each other to work on the night of the reservation and end up giving it to their parents, resulting in Boyle's father hooking up with Gina's mother.
In its original American broadcast, "Jake and Sophia" was seen by an estimated 3.99 million household viewers and gained a 1.9/5 ratings share among adults aged 18–49, according to Nielsen Media Research.
"[4] Allie Pape from Vulture gave the show a 3 star rating out of 5 and wrote, "Eva Longoria hasn't been much of a screen presence since Desperate Housewives ascended to that omniscient voice-over palace in the sky back in 2012, and it was nice to see her pop up in tonight's Brooklyn Nine-Nine, the first of what will apparently be a three-episode arc for district attorney Sophia Perez.
For now, 'Jake and Sophia' has shifted the pecking order in ways that hopefully prove meaningful in the long run; in other words, it's just another solid installment from one of the most remarkably progressive sitcoms on the market.
