In an episode where Jake promises the victim’s mother to find the killer, Rosa criticised this decision and Jake fails to listen.

Soon, Jake falls down the abyss when he is not able to solve the crime scene and fights with Rosa when the case is given away.

Once again, Jake loses sight of what’s important simply because something doesn’t fall in his comfort zone. In tough times, Rosa requests Jake to work with Jack Danger in order to eradicate a certain drug and to save Rosa’s task force. However, Jake acts childish and endangers Rosa’s case only to be saved in the ending moments.

One of the worst things that Rosa does is not communicate with her friend. As the show established that they know each other since their academy days, Rosa doesn’t really talk to Jake and then blames him for something that is stemmed from a lack of communication. Even an introvert starts talking to their friend whom they’ve known for so long. This was further shown in the final season when Rosa decides that she must leave the force, and the decision fit well with Peralta.

4. Jake Sends Off Rosa With Holt To Work Out

However, when it’s time to rectify their mistakes, Jake pairs with terry and Charles to find the laptop, and send off Rosa to work out with Holt. Rosa clearly is in a state of mess and it’s clear that she is in agony. However, it made for a great moment in an episode that was already funny.
