10 Best Brooklyn Nine-Nine Cold Opens

7. Holt Vs Marshmallows

While Captain Holt always tries to inspire his squad to improve themselves as detectives, he also frequently unintentionally inspires them to have fun as people. The squad loves him but it's also really easy to make fun of him, but in a nice way of course. His comedically cold demeanor definitely earns him a good ribbing from time to time.

Always one to lead the way in the fight to goof off in the workplace, Jake challenged the rest of the squad to guess what Holt would sound like if he ate a marshmallow for the first time. Everyone went robotic, except for Charles who figured that Holt would giggle manically.

Naturally, Charles was right.

The crazy part about this cold open was the fact that Holt had never eaten a marshmallow before that moment. Even for Holt, it was honestly amazing that he successfully avoided it for several decades.
