"Prince" is the 14th episode of New Girl's third season.
Jess and Cece get invited to a party at Prince's house. Nick tells Jess he loves her and she doesn't respond properly.
Tropes in this episode:
- As Himself: Prince as himself is a major part of this episode.
- The Cameo: LA Dodgers Clayton Kershaw appears briefly at the party as a guy Jess snubs.
- Celebrity Star: Prince is entirely the focus of this episode. The characters attend his house party and he gives Jess advice.
- Dance Party Ending: The penultimate bit is the gang partying onstage with Prince.
- The "I Love You" Stigma: The crux of this episode. Nick blurts out that he loves Jess and she's put on the spot and finger-guns back. Some hanging out with Prince makes her ready to say it back.
- Product Placement: Coach gets a lot to say about his beloved Ford Fusion, including an extended conversation about its large gas mileage.
