Who is Terry Jeffords in Brooklyn Nine-Nine?
The sergeant who loves yogurt and his daughters · Command
Terry Jeffords (The sergeant who loves yogurt and his daughters) is a character in Brooklyn Nine-Nine, part of Command. Sergeant Terry Jeffords can bench-press the precinct and is afraid to go back into the field — new twin daughters, Cagney and Lacey, have given the bullpen's gentlest giant too much to lose. He referees the detectives like a kindergarten teacher built by Marvel, speaks of himself in the third person, and defends his yogurt with the intensity other men reserve for honour. Terry's arc is the quiet one: getting his nerve back, then spending it protecting the squad from everything, including the NYPD itself.
