So, I rewatched He Said, She Said today, and, while there have been many smart conversations about how good that episode is, the thing that really stands out to me every time is how they gave Keri a personality. It would've been so easy to just make her a sad and sympathetic victim and nothing more, but no! She's a talented business woman who loves her job, dreams of one day having a pool of gold coins, and nicknamed her coworker skid-mark after he pooped his pants. Brooklyn Nine-Nine said, โThis is what victims of sexual assault look like! They're very real women with their own ambitions, agency, and sense of humour.โ She only had a handful of minutes of screen time, but even in that short period, they successfully showed us how this woman is so much more than just her assault.
