New Girl 1x07 (HDTV-LOL)

yes! they got this episode 100% right.
no inexplicable weirdness from jess
that makes you wonder if she was raised by wolves,
and each of the male characters had a distinct
conflict that helped to flesh them out.

ps: is it just me or did nick start out
as kind of a wuss, and then get
reshaped into the alpha of the group?

good episode. jess always seem to put
on a disturbing behaviour...

ps: i don't see why you'd say that,
nick might be "the smart guy" but
i don't see him as the alpha male.

best moments:
#10. this is what i want. petting a dolphin. oh yeah, there we go.
#9. it's a melon liquer... it's an american classic with asian influences.
#8. my famous virgin sangria. / isn't that just juice?
#7. what happened to the refrigerator and the sofa? did we get robbed by giants?
#6. they sound like a guy covered in bells falling down a staircase - that's also made of bells
#5. think about what you're doing right now... stop squeezing it out of my hair!
#4. can i eat some of these crackers up in here... can i eat a cracker-sushi sandwich?
#3. the plastic soda bottle is right where it's supposed to be: right in the walll hole.
#2. do you even know what this [a pair of pliers] is? / no doi, it's a scissor.
#1. don't judge me because i can't think at all. i just like to play the bells.

jess defers to the guys. (the bells was the first time that she really asserted herself.)
schmidt is turning into kind of a felix from the odd couple or a niles from frasier type of character.
so, that leaves winston and nick.
jess and schmidt both seem more concerned with his approval.
i'm not saying that nick is 'an alpha male',
i'm just saying that he is the de facto leader of the foursome,
which is weird because in the pilot
he couldn't even make a decision about whether or not to take in jess.
at that point, schmidt seemed more assertive.
