The episode “He Said, She Said” was directed by Stephanie Beatriz (who plays Rosa Diez) and written by Lang Fisher. It's the first time the show has tackled a sexual assault case.
In the epiode Amy and Jake investigate a case, in which a finance consultant presses charges against a female co-worker, for breaking his penis after he tried to sexually assault her. They tackle a lot of the micro-agressions women face on a daily basis, and amidst working on the case Amy reveals to Jake that the reason she transferred to the Nine Nine in the first place is that her first Captain tried to coerce her into sex after supporting her promotion, causing her to doubt herself and her abilities.
