Plot


Boyle asks Peralta to be his best man and Peralta accepts. Boyle then gives him a magazine called Fancy Brudgom ("brudgom" meaning "groom" in Danish) to inform him of everything he needs to do for the wedding.
Peralta and Boyle taste cakes and find Boyle a suit for the wedding. However, Boyle informs Peralta that Vivian is moving to Ottawa and he is going with her, even though he does not want to. Peralta tries to convince Boyle to tell Vivian how he feels. Instead, Boyle panics and brings Vivian to a breakfast date with Peralta, hoping Peralta can tell Vivian that Boyle doesn't want to go to Ottawa. It backfires and Boyle and Vivian leave. Peralta later forces Boyle to confront Vivian. They decide to not move to Canada.
Meanwhile, Holt makes Rosa Diaz (Stephanie Beatriz) apologize to a patrol officer (Kevin Bigley) she humiliated. Jeffords, Santiago, and Gina start a diet together. Gina quickly loses the diet and Santiago eventually succumbs to junk food. Their actions upset Jeffords. Finally, Jeffords gives up. He reveals that he was on a diet because his wife was also on one and he wanted to support her. Before he can give up, he is handcuffed in order to continue the diet.

= Critical reviews

"Fancy Brudgom" received positive reviews from critics. Roth Cornet of IGN gave the episode a "great" 8.5 out of 10 and wrote, "'Fancy Brudgom' saw Jake once again rise to the occasion and come through for Boyle in his time in need, as Holt bestowed his leadership wisdom on Diaz - who seems to be a big believer in cruel to be kind. Meanwhile, Gina, Amy, and Terry starve in the name of love. The most effective portion of the episode was the A-storyline between Boyle and Jake, but the side-by-side B-storylines rounded out the episode nicely."
Molly Eichel of The A.V. Club gave the episode an "A−" grade and wrote, "But in each episode, Brooklyn Nine-Nine hits that 'heart' factor just right. Take how I initially felt about 'Fancy Brudgom': It was good, but I wasn't thrilled. Still, the more I thought about it, the more my affection grew. I can sit here and nitpick and fault Brooklyn Nine-Nine, but when it all comes down to it, I leave each episode feeling that warm and fuzzy feeling that exists when a show hits the sweet spot being trying too hard, miring itself in treacle territory, and when it elevates laughs to the point where it's cold and unfeeling. Each portion of the episode had this perfectly measured-out quality of heart."
Andy Crump of Paste gave the episode a 9.0 and wrote, "'Fancy Brudgom' is a major-minor episode—one that’s more about set-up and sweetness than actual incident — but it nevertheless takes viewers someplace new. If the series sticks the landing, then the payoffs should come around soon enough as Brooklyn Nine-Nine hurtles toward its first season finale."
