This podcast covers New Girl Season 4, Episode 20, Par 5, which originally aired on Apr 7, 2015 and was written by Lamorne Morris and Rob Rosell and directed by Trent O'Donnell.
Here’s a quick recap of the episode:
Fawn takes Jess to a golf tournament to get new computers for her students while Winston starts dating someone new. Cece also helps Schmidt get ready for a photo op with Fawn while dealing with her own feelings for him.
This episode got a 7.5/10 rating from both Kritika and Kelly; and we both had the same favorite character: Winston!
While not discussed in the podcast, we noted other references in this episode including:
- K-Ci & Jojo - When Winston was meeting KC, he was jokingly asking, “Yo, KC, where JoJo at?", responding to himself, “In rehab, probably.”
- Nick Nolte - Winston said he saw Nick Nolte in the park once.
- Gollum / “One Ring” - Cece was telling Jess that she was going to help Schmidt with an emergency and Jess said she couldn’t go over there alone because it would be like “Gollum hanging out with the One Ring.”
- Big Bird / Sesame Street - Jess, uncomfortable while networking, makes a joke about someone’s shoes looking like they chopped off Big Bird’s feet and Fawn urged her not to make jokes about murdering Sesame Street puppets.
- O.J. Trial - Winston shared that Nick had lost the ability to talk about race with Winston when he focused in on the white Bronco car during the O.J. trial when they were kids.
- Eddie Murphy / [The Nutty Professor] / Seinfeld - When discussing race, Nick was trying to show he did a good impression of Eddie Murphy doing his Hercules bit from The Nutty Professor. Coach was able to do the impression much better. Winston said Nick was not able to comment, but Winston shared it was not the same thing when he did the Seinfeld impression.
- Ghostbusters - Winston shared that he knows they’re going to recruit from law enforcement if there are ever real Ghostbusters.
- Ginuwine - When Winston showed up at KC’s workplace, they put on a song for Winston to dance to and Winston asked if they had a song by Ginuwine.
Additionally we mentioned in our podcast episode that we’d include the video for “There Are No Cats in America” which you can find on Youtube here.
