About

Screaming Jake Peralta Playing Guitar is a memorable moment from the American situational comedy series Brookly Nine-Nine. In the clip, Detective Jake Peralta screams while playing an acoustic guitar at a suspect he is interrogating. Online, people use the clip in reaction image macros, GIFs and object labeling memes to express frustration, particularly frustration towards another's overwrought or unnecessary explanations.

Origin

On November 5th, 2013, Fox aired the Brooklyn Nine-Nine episode "48 Hours."[1] In the episode, Detective Jake Peralta (portrayed by Andy Samberg) apprehends a suspect, Dustin Whitman (Kid Cudi) without evidence. Peralta interrogates Whitman by attempting to irritate him into confessing to a crime. One such technique includes playing the guitar poorly and screaming in a high-pitched manner (shown below).


On May 9th, 2015, Tumblr [2] user pleadingskin shared a GIF from the scene with the caption "starts talking about blurryface." The post received more than 2,190 notes in less than six years (shown below).

Later that year, on November 7th, 2015, Tumblr[3] account itsonlythefirstdraft shared the GIF with the caption "How's writing going so far?" The post received more than 49,000 notes in less than six years (shown below, left).

Over the next few years, images from the scene continued to spread online. For example, on December 20th, 2018, the out of context Twitter [4] @nocontxt99 tweeted a screenshot from the scene. The post received more than 7,200 likes and 3,700 retweets in less than two years (shown below, center).

On September 29th, 2020, Redditor notkhaos shared an object-labeling variation of the meme in the /r/memes[5] subreddit. In the meme, the author labeled Peralta "The final boss explaining how he's gonna kick my ass" and labeled Whitman "Me, who died for the 34th and can't skip the cutscene." The post received more than 121,000 views (97% upvoted) and 800 comments in less than two months (shown below, right).
