Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What famous crime solving duo are Sgt. Terry Jeffords' twins named after?

Answer: Cagney and Lacey

Terry and his wife named their baby girls after Sharon Gless and Tyne Daly's iconic police duo of Christine Cagney (Gless) and Mary Beth Lacey (Daly). The show "Cagney & Lacey" ran from 1981-1988.

2. We've met Charles Boyle's father a few times on "Brooklyn 99". What is his name?

Answer: Lynn Linetti

When Lynn Boyle married Gina's mother, he took her last name. He is now Lynn Linetti.

3. How does Captain Holt address his mother?

Answer: Your Honor

The Captain's mother, Laverne Holt, is a federal judge. We overhear him addressing her as "Your Honor" when he speaks to her on the phone.

4. According to Charles, how many states in the US have Boyle cousins?

Answer: 50

In the 99th episode (appropriately titled "99"), Charles explains that there are Boyle cousins in all 50 states.

5. Charles and Genevieve adopted Nikolaj between seasons 3 and 4. What country is Nikolaj from?

Answer: Latvia

Having married into a Latvian family myself and having two internationally adopted children (from Ukraine), this is one of the most charming parts of "Brooklyn 99" to me. While the wait times are far greater than the typical 3 or 4 month hiatus between television seasons, it still amuses me that Nikolaj comes from Latvia.

Lithuania and Estonia are the other two Baltic Nations. Latvaria is the fictional nation that the villainous Doctor Doom of Marvel Comics is from. It's not a real place.

6. Captain Holt helps Sgt. Jeffords out with a family member that refuses to respect Jeffords. Which family member does Jeffords have trouble with?

Answer: His brother-in-law, Zeke

In the season 2 episode "Lockdown", we discover that Terry's brother-in-law, Zeke, is even bigger than the Sergeant and that he's not very nice to "Tiny Terry".

7. Where did Jake Peralta's dad always take him after Little League games?

Answer: Sal's Pizza

Jake was especially upset when Sal's Pizza burned down in season one because it was the last place he had good memories of his dad.

8. What does Jake's mother, Karen Peralta, do for a living?

Answer: Art Teacher

In spite of Jake mentioning that his mom was "working all the time" on Thanksgiving, it is revealed later that Karen is an art teacher.

Jake's father, Roger, is a pilot, not his mother.

9. Amy Santiago creates a binder with information in it that she uses to impress Jake's mom. What does she write that Karen Peralta's favorite drink is?

Answer: Red wine over ice

Amy's information on Karen is not very up to date because she misses that Karen is once again dating Roger Peralta, Jake's dad.

10. What country is Amy Santiago's family from?

Answer: Cuba

Amy comes from a large, Cuban family with eight kids. She is the only girl.

11. Mr. Santiago is played by an actor who was very well known for his previous starring role as a police detective. Who plays Amy's father?

Answer: Jimmy Smits

Victor Santiago is played by the legendary Jimmy Smits, who was already famous when he played the role of Detective Bobby Simone in "NYPD Blue" from 1994-2004.

Answer: Game Night

While Rosa is a big fan of classic movies, her family has game night together. It is during a game of Pictionary that Rosa tries once again to get her parents to accept her bisexuality.

13. Doug Judy, the Pontiac Bandit, loves his mother. He introduces Jake and Rosa to her the first time we meet him. How does he introduce Jake to his mom?

Answer: Mangey Carl, a down on his luck homeless man

After Jake is introduced to Mrs. Judy, he tells her how good Doug is "to the whites".

Carl Mangerson is how Judy introduces Jake to his criminal associates.

Bill, his barber, is the person that Jake has mistaken for the Pontiac Bandit.

14. What does Gina Linetti name her daughter?

Answer: Enigma

Gina has a daughter named Enigma, who she calls "Iggy". Iggy's dad is Milton Boyle, one of the infinite Boyle cousins.
