To her surprise...

𝙈𝙔 𝙋𝘼𝙏𝙀𝙍𝙉𝘼𝙇 𝙂𝙍𝘼𝙉𝘿𝙁𝘼𝙏𝙃𝙀𝙍, Tom Hanson Jr. worked for the 21 Jump Street unit from 1987 to 1991. Like me, he didn't want to be there either. He reacted the same way when Richard Jenko, [ qué en paz descanse, ] (may he rest in peace,) called him sport, and he threw him a can of soda and a bag of potato chips after snatching his coffee and throwing it in the trash. Before Adam Fuller came along, he was in charge. He explained that teenagers don't have black cups of coffee and omelets for breakfast. And if he was going to be a part of Jump Street, then he would have to learn how to teenage things up, or how to be a teenager again.
His words:
hey, I'm your boss. I'll call you whatever I want to. have aseat,sport. Look man. While you're out in the field getting your butt kicked by all the bad grown-ups, me and my guys here, we're training to do some real battle. Ya see - the way I look at it, child is the father of man. I mean, these bad grown-ups are coming from somewhere they don't just hatch that way. That's why we're trying to yank them out while they're still in high school, dig?
... To teach you how to be a teenager again, sport. How does that grab you? I'm talking about the bad kind, the kind that gets into trouble, the kind you're going to have to be like so they think you're one of 'em, dig?
Grandpa Tom was four weeks behind at the time, so Jenko put him through some rushed training with the help of Judy Hoffs. (Who is actually Mel's grandma). She gave him a complete makeover. Poor man came in on the first day looking like an official police officer all handsome with his hair gel down slicked to the side:

And he got made fun of for it twice. Specifically with the hair, Jenko called it the Jack Kennedy haircut. Something had to be done about it. Thank God. (Sorry abuelito, (grandpa,) if you ever read this. Te quiero mucho. (I love you so much.) 😅🫂
Judy took him to all kinds of different stores for clothes that would make him look a lot younger; she even made him get a piercing which he didn't - want but she did it anyway. He got a haircut and started using leather jackets:
