In the Brooklyn Nine-Nine episode ‘Moo Moo’, while Jake and Amy babysit Terry’s kids, Terry (Terry Crews) reaches out to a white police officer who stopped Terry while he was off-duty in his own neighborhood. At a restaurant, the officer tells Terry, “If I had known you were a cop, I would have never treated you that way.” When Terry argues it shouldn’t matter, the officer says it was pretty obvious Terry didn’t belong there — where Terry lives!
