Charles Boyle's flamboyance is no secret but in 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' Season 7 Episode 4, he goes full showman — from the bearded lady in 'The Greatest Showman' style to the embarrassing 'Gobble gobble!'.

In the latest promo of the NBC sitcom, Charles can be seen approaching the Jimmy Jab Games with effortless panache, as he puts on a showman's outfit and cheers the six participants of the titular game. The winning prize, according to Charles, is inheriting his circus — a shoutout to the Hugh Jackman-starrer's original plot wherein PT Barnum and his troupe perform a show at the Barnum Circus. 



 

The trailer sees Charles sing and dance, climb desks and light baguette's on fire as the prestigious lighting of the torch ceremony to commence this year's jabs. As opposed to eating Chinese food, the participants are contesting with cold-cut meats and are once again seen in bomb suits, so expect the good old' bomb-suit races to come up some time or the other in the episode.

But don't let that distract you from the elaborate costume changes Charles undergoes throughout the games — singing, performing, and changing outfits every round, as he sprinkles the precinct with his words of wisdom and encouragement, offering all the push needed to make newbie Debbie Fogie (Vaness Byers) participate and perform.

That Charles is extra is no secret, but the trailer promises exuberant showmanship from his end, which even dries his coworkers Jake Peralta (Andy Samberg) and Amy Santiago (Melissa Fumero), to express their shock at how he has gone 'full showman'. Of course, Jake shows his support by proudly anointing Charles as the greatest showman of all times, and this is coming from the winner of the Best Detective-slash-Genius award is rich, even for Charles' neverending sense of enthusiasm.

'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' Season 7 airs on Thursdays at 8:30 pm on NBC.
