The truth is, our job isn't always great. I mean, sometimes it sucks. But it sucks a little less when I get to do it with you, Amy.

Jake Peralta to Amy Santiago in "Operation: Broken Feather"

Jake Peralta and Amy Santiago, ship name Peraltiago, are detectives and often work partners at the 99th precinct. They have a very strong, competitive relationship, including participating in bets and always trying to one-up each other. Although they often tease each other, it is clear they have mutual respect and share a friendship. Their desks in precinct's bullpen, were adjacent to each other before Amy became a Sergeant and was moved to the second floor.

As the series progresses, their rivalry develops into friendship which eventually becomes a romantic interest. At the beginning of Season 3, the two begin a relationship. In the middle of Season 4, Jake decides to move into Amy's apartment. In the Season 5 episode titled "HalloVeen," Jake proposes to Amy in the evidence room, which she accepts. They get married outside the precinct in the Season 5 finale, titled "Jake & Amy." They go on their honeymoon in the first episode of Season 6, "Honeymoon."

After Amy has a pregnancy scare, Jake and Amy decide to start trying for a child in the first episode of Season 7, Manhunter. They eventually find out they're expecting a baby boy in the Season 7 episode "Ding Dong." Their son Mac (short for McClane from Die Hard) is born in the precinct with the help of FDNY in the Season 7 finale "Lights Out". Mac is seen in Season 8

Amy: Please don't say that during the ceremony. (Jake & Amy)

Holt: Friends, colleagues, gawking New Yorkers, we are here today to celebrate the marriage of Jake Peralta and Amy Santiago. I've known you both for the last five years. And it has been a true pleasure to watch your distracting childish rivalry evolve into a distracting childish courtship and now into what I'm sure will be a distracting childish marriage. I'm proud of you. And I love you both.
Jake: Permission to say it back?
Holt: Permission granted.
Amy: Love you too, sir.
Jake: Love you, captain.
Holt: Now I believe you've prepared your own vows?
Jake: Yes, I was going to do an Addams Family-themed rap, but my beat-boxer isn't here. That's the only reason it's not happening. Ames, today has been a crazy day. But I shouldn't be surprised because we've had a lot of crazy days. There was our first date, our first kiss, the first time you told me you loved me, and the day you told me you would marry me. Also, yesterday, and the day before that, and the day before that, because every single day that I get to be with someone as amazing as you is crazy to me. I love you, and I'm worried about dancing in front our friends. The end.
Amy: Okay, well, I've been planning this wedding for the last six months, and if you told me yesterday everything that was gonna go wrong, I would have had a panic attack that sent me into the ER. But I'm here, and I've never been happier. Life is unpredictable. Not everything's in our control, but as long as you're with the right people, you can handle anything. And you, Jake Peralta, are the right person for me. But I do have some bad news. There is a bomb at this wedding as well.
Jake: What?
Amy: Your butt. Your butt is the bomb. There will be no survivors.
Jake: [on the verge of tears] I love you so much. You're my dream girl.
Amy: I love you, too. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you.

Holt: Do you, Amy Santiago, take Jake Peralta to be your husband?
Amy: I do.
Holt: And do you, Jake Peralta, take Amy Santiago to be your wife?
Jake: I absolutely do.
Holt: By the power vested in me by the state of New York, I'd like to announce that your honeymoon vacation request status has officially been moved from pending to approved. You're married. You may kiss the bride.(Jake & Amy)

Jake [dressed as Melvil Dewey for role-playing]: Hello.
Amy [dressed as Holly Gennaro for role-playing]: Oh my God. Are you Melvil Dewey?

Amy: Mm-hmm, yeah. This is really working for me.
Jake: Really?
Amy: Yeah.
Jake: Awesome.
Amy: So, Mr. Dewey, can you save me from the terrorists that have taken over Nakatomi Plaza?

Jake: Oh, thank God. This old jacket is so hot. (Honeymoon)

Amy: I just want a quick peek at your attendance record. Zero absences? Oh mama~ Printing this for later.

Jake: The point is, I came to comfort you.

Jake: [Smiles appreciatively]
Amy: All I wanted was just for you to be okay.
Jake: [Smiles bigger with tender appreciation]
Amy: I may never have [my picture on] the mantle [in my parents' home], but it doesn't matter... 'cause I have you.
Jake: Well, I'm very proud of you. (The Golden Child)

Jake: Okay, look. Amy, I'm scared, okay? I'm scared that we're gonna have a child and I won't be able to handle it, I'm scared that I'm not gonna be a good father, and I'm scared that I'll make a mistake I can't take back.
Amy: Jake, I get it. I'm scared too.
Jake: Every other big decision I've made in my life I was sure about: becoming a cop, asking you to marry me... (Casecation)

Amy: So, did they defuse the bomb?
Jake: Yeah, one of them. Oh, you didn't hear? There was a second bomb. Ya butt. Ya butt is the bomb.
Amy: Aw, on our anniversary. (Casecation)

Amy: Hey, so... today was pretty intense.
Jake: You mean catching the shooter? I know, it's a great story. I just hope Pitt can get in good enough shape to play me in the movie, you know?
Amy: Mm, yeah. Um, also, something else happened. I thought I might be pregnant.
Jake: Really?
Amy: Yeah. I'm not, I got my period. And I took a pregnancy test, but it didn't work because I drank 11 gallons of water.
Jake: Told you water was bad for you.
Amy: That's not the takeaway.
Jake: You're absolutely right. How are you, how do you feel? Are you okay?
Amy: I mean, I was really stressed. This wasn't our plan, and we agreed we'd wait a year and there's so much to do first, and it would've been crazy, right?
Jake: Yeah. It would have.
Amy: Okay.
Jake: But also might have been... kinda cool.
Amy: Honestly? I was secretly bummed when the test came back negative.
Jake: Should we just start trying?
Amy: Seriously?
Jake: Yeah, seriously.
Amy: Okay. Yeah. (Manhunter)

Amy: Hey, so... I don't know if you've noticed, but ever since I've started those hormone treatments--
Jake: I didn't notice anything.
Amy: You said that way too quick.
Jake: I mean, you did cry at that one car commercial, and it wasn't even an emotional one, it was about towing capacity.
Amy: Yeah. Well, I called the doctor to see if that was a common side effect, and apparently, it isn't.
Jake: Oh no, is everything okay?
Amy: Yeah. She did have one guess as to what might be causing it, and, um, she was right. [takes out positive pregnancy test and shows it to Jake]
Jake: ...Ames, are we having a baby?
Amy: [nods] We're having a baby. (Ding Dong)

Jake: [about sex reveal cake] Hey, listen, I'm sorry the cake was green.
Amy: It's okay... I'll love our little shrek no matter what.
Jake: Oh my god, that's right! You still don't know the sex of the baby. With all the craziness I almost forgot. Emphasis on almost.
Amy: What?
Jake: I got another cake just for the two of us. [they both walk over to a box on the break room table]
Amy: Jake, that's so sweet.
Jake: Here we go.
Amy: I'm so excited. [Jake opens the box which is empty] It's empty, there's no cake inside.
Jake: What? Where'd it go?
Scully: [walks in with blue cake on his face] Hey, guys. You have any milk?
Amy: We're having a boy?!
Jake: We're having a boy! (Admiral Peralta)

Jake: [looks at his son Mac] Well, we did it Ames, we made the world's hottest baby.
Amy: Say cute Jake.
Jake: Nope, this kid is liquid fire. [Amy rolls her eyes and they both laugh] Crazy to think that in just seventeen short years, he's gonna be 6'7" and be the number one draft pick for the Knicks.
Amy: And then he's gonna pass up that opportunity to peruse his true passion, library sciences.
Jake: Well, the important thing is we'll support him no matter what. Even if he's a huge, huge nerd.
Amy: Oh, especially then. [they both laugh]
Jake: [sighs] Are we gonna be okay at this? I mean this entire day felt like a warning from the universe. I almost missed the birth, we had our baby at the precinct, a firefighter touched our child.
Amy: We washed him off.
Jake: Yeah, but I'll always know.
Amy: Babe, we talked about this. Everyone balances work and kids.
Jake: Yeah, but everyone's not a cop.
Amy: True, but when our son wants to learn about the day he was born we get to tell him that his dad helped a bunch of people, and foiled a bank robbery. [gives Mac to Jake]
Jake: Guess that is kinda cool. And his mom managed a city wide emergency while actually giving birth.
Amy: I'm proud of our son to have you as a dad.
Jake: Me too. For you to be the mom, I wasn't just agreeing with the nice thing you said about me. [Amy smiles lovingly at him]
Amy: I love you.
Jake: Love you too. (Lights Out)
