Plot

Jake organizes a last "heist" before Holt and Amy leave the precinct for their new roles as Deputy Commissioner and Chief of Department. They decide to forget all previous heist winners and only the new winner will count and be crowned as "The Grand Champion of the Nine-Nine". Terry states he won't participate, as he has an interview for the precinct's Captain position.

MV5BMDk3MDIwZTgtNDZhMy00ODcwLWI3YTctYTBmODBkYzBiNjBjXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTM0MDU1NzUy. V1 — Jake describes 'The Perfect Goodbye' to Amy.

While randomly selecting the teams, Jake rigs the results so that Holt is partnered with Hitchcock and Scully, Rosa is partnered with Amy, and Jake is partnered with Charles. But this is part of a scheme orchestrated by Jake, who is actually collaborating with Amy and uses Boyle as a decoy. The target of the heist is a replica of Holt's Medal of Valor, which will be stored in a pneumatic tube. Jake reveals to Amy that the intent of the heist is for him to announce he will quit his job to become a stay-at-home dad, believing it's their best option to raise Mac so Amy can focus on her new job and hes son doesn't have to grow up without a father as he did. Amy is shocked by Jake's choice but ultimately supports his decision.

The heist involves the teams getting clues that lead them to past locations and people they were with during the last eight years. These include visiting Caleb, Wuntch's grave and a clue involving the time Jake made inmates sing. However, the next clue is ruined when the janitor erases the text from the interrogation room before they can see it. They call Terry to ask him for the clue and he reluctantly reveals the clue in the middle of his interview, embarrassing him in front of Deputy Chief Williams. They then head out to the location where Holt and Kevin kissed when they reconciled. Holt manages to distract the squad by revealing his tattoo: Kevin's head on Cheddar's body. He gets to the case containing the tube but they find it empty. Gina suddenly appears holding the tube.

Gina takes the tube with her on an armored truck and leaves the scene. The teams eventually hijack the truck but their attempts at getting the tube result in many of the squad members turning against each other. Meanwhile, Terry discovers that the office his interview is in is fake and is convinced that he is part of the heist, which prompts him to destroy the office. He confronts Holt about this but Holt tells him the interview was not fake and the office's design was a result of relocating for the new reform. Holt temporarily leaves the heist to help Terry fix the situation. As Jake's team gets the advantage, he is confronted by Charles, who found Jake's letter of resignation in his locker, and angrily storms out.
