"Cheddar" is the eighteenth episode of the third season of the American television police sitcom series Brooklyn Nine-Nine. It is the 63rd overall episode of the series and is written by Jessica Polonsky and directed by Alex Reid. It aired on Fox in the United States on March 1, 2016.
The show revolves around the fictitious 99th precinct of the New York Police Department in Brooklyn and the officers and detectives that work in the precinct. In the episode, Jake and Amy decide to house-sit Holt's house while he visits Kevin. However, problems arise when their dog, Cheddar, runs away. Meanwhile, Rosa and Adrian tiptoe around their mutual attraction for one another.
The episode was seen by an estimated 1.85 million household viewers and gained a 0.8/2 ratings share among adults aged 18–49, according to Nielsen Media Research. The episode received positive reviews from critics, who praised the cast's performance.
In the cold open, Jake receives his inheritance from his deceased rich uncle, only to find out it's one million shares in stock for Blockbuster Video.
Feeling that Holt (Andre Braugher) is lonely while Kevin is in Paris, Jake (Andy Samberg) proposes he and Amy (Melissa Fumero) babysit Holt's and Kevin's dog, Cheddar, so Holt can fly to Paris and meet with him. Jake also brings Boyle (Joe Lo Truglio), who just got eye surgery.
However, while house-sitting, Boyle's pants catch fire and Cheddar escapes the house. With Holt deciding to go back to the house after being notified of the fire, Jake asks the precinct for help and has Gina (Chelsea Peretti) delay Holt's return to the house. Despite their efforts, Holt finds out and dismisses them while he goes outside to find Cheddar. Suddenly, Jake and Amy use Kevin's binder to locate Cheddar at a park where he and Kevin used to go. Later Holt reveals to Jake and Amy that the reason he decided not to go to Paris was not because he was worried about the house but that he and Kevin were going through a difficult time and he didn't want to go to Paris and end up fighting with Kevin.
Meanwhile, while searching for Cheddar, Rosa (Stephanie Beatriz) and Adrian (Jason Mantzoukas) flirt throughout the search, making Terry (Terry Crews) uncomfortable. However, Adrian considers leaving her due to his nature but Terry convinces him otherwise by leaving his past behind.
