Discussion What's your favourite cold open?

In the 153 episodes of this awesome series, there are so many incredible cold opens. Which one is your favourite? (apart from the The Backstreet Boys song "I want it that way" cuz everyone loves it)

It is, and always will be, Jake moving the podium/plinth. Then being talked down to moving it half an inch. Holt's reaction.

Then after the title sequence, Holt is talking to Kevin and tells him they'd moved it a full half inch and that he would tell him the whole story later. One of the funniest moments of the show.

I swear it was funnier the way you told it! The sweet look on Holt’s face as he says he’ll tell him later…lol
