"Eggs" is the 9th episode of New Girl's second season.
Jess and Cece get their eggs looked at by their gynecologist friend Sadie. Nick writes his novel.
Tropes in this episode:
- Black Dude Dies First: Discussed and parodied when Nick writes a zombie novel overnight. It's apparently extremely terrible, featuring a bunch of typos and a black character named William who dies right away. He even apologizes to his black friend Winston for it, but says it's a convention of the horror genre.
- Law of Inverse Fertility: Played with in Cece herself. She figures she's got time and isn't interested in having kids or worried about how her reproductive system is doing, but when she finds out she's running out of time she gets scared she won't be able to have kids once she's ready.
- My Biological Clock Is Ticking: After learning she doesn't have a lot of eggs left, Cece resolves to become a mother.
- Unusual Euphemism: Schmidt uses a torrent of odd phrases to explain his foreplay techniques to Jess' lesbian gynecologist friend Sadie, which, combined with a series of hand gestures the audience can't see, is enough to turn her on to an incredible degree and deem him to be a "vagenius".Schmidt: Yeah, yeah, I see what you’re doing there. And then what I’ll do is go outside and get the paper, and then shake the neighbor's hand. Then what I’ll do is tie a bow on it, because it’s birthday time, and then get on stage and collect my Oscar and say, "Thank you!" to the people, "Thank you!" to the people, and then I’ll get back down off stage and get everybody into the sharing circle, right into the sharing circle, and then [smacks the desk] spike the volleyball. Then what I like to do is, I like to arrive at the bridge, meet the troll, and then answer his riddles three. Then what we’re going to do is, we’re dancing. We’re dancing. We’re going to dance for a while. Dance until you can’t dance anymore. Dance until you can’t dance anymore. And then everybody. Gets. A. Churro [tongue click].
