Just in time for the Masters to begin in Augusta, Jess is taking her own swing on the course. She may not have the skills of Rory McIlroy, but she certainly does give it her all as she tries to network for new computers for her school. She's not the only one out of her comfort zone as Schmidt and Winston struggle for our amusement as well.

Schmidt and Fawn are sitting down for Schmidt's weekly feedback as she gives him notes on how he can improve in their relationship. The gang watches in awe as Cece brings out the claws and reminds Fawn how many times she has slept with Schmidt. Trying to impress Fawn, Schmidt asks Cece to help him cover his body entirely in bronzer so that he will look darker in photos. He accidentally bought bronzer with glitter which creates a situation. When he asks Cece her opinion of Fawn, she tries to be polite but winds up lashing out at him telling him that he is great, just the way he is.

When Jess has had enough of not getting any action when it comes to acquiring computers for her school, Fawn mentions that she will be golfing at a charity event with Martha Yowtz. Jess knows Martha is an important school board member and asks if she can attend with Fawn. Fawn is hesitant, but agrees to let her come. When Jess shows how awful she is at golf and even worse at networking, Fawn coaches her at how to play politics. Her conscience getting the best of her, she just flat out asks Martha for the computers and Martha agrees... in the year 2018, when the school budget has passed. Jess accepts this as a semi-victory. Fawn, trying to capitalize on the moment, accidentally moons the press corps. Humiliated, she tells Schmidt she understands if he breaks up with her. Using Cece's line, he tells her that she is great, just the way she is.

Coach and Nick try to advise Winston to pick up a woman, KC, despite the fact that he has no game. Winston and KC hit it off, but she mentions that she is a police protestor. Winston, not wanting to strike out before he begins, tells her that he is a stripper. After a comedic, yet topical, conversation with Coach and Nick about race and the police, Winston decides he has to come clean. He shows up at KC's office in full uniform. She agrees to go out with him, but only if he does a strip tease for her and her co-workers.

If there is one thing I could watch all day, it is Nick Miller trying his hardest to do impressions that he thinks he is amazing at, but they are God awful. And his "Eddie Murphy" is no exception. I do enjoy the Fawn and Schmidt relationship, as twisted as it is. And even though a reunion is inevitable, I kind of like that for once Cece is on the outs and doing the pining. I'm sure it isn't a position she is used to. I do have a hard time believing that Schmidt is so entirely clueless about what she is thinking.

Only three more episodes left this year and with a recent pickup announcement for a Season Five, I am sure we will not get a resolution to the Cece/Schmidt unrequited love angle any time soon. I am wondering if Jess and Nick are going to have any moments this year. Both of their love lives are non-existent and they're about due for a slip up and then an hour of "what did that mean," aren't they?

Lines I Love:

  • Coach - I feel like I'm watching porn set in an HR department.

  • Fawn - Is there some way you can make your skin look less white in photos? People are saying that you're haunting me.

  • Jess - Why are you on your way to hang out with him? What are you doing? What if he does something sexy? That's like Gollum hanging out with the one ring!

  • Schmidt - So stupid! I feel like I'm trying to get into an 18 and under club in Tucson!

  • Winston - Plus, if there are ever ghostbusters, I know they're gonna recruit from law enforcement first.
