New Girl Season 1 Episode 8 Recap: Bad in Bed

Jess feels inadequate in bed, having been with Spence as her only partner for six years, and then getting cheated on. Things don’t go well on her first attempt at sexytime with Paul, and she seeks help from porn and Schmidt. The quick lesson from both sources results in even more awkwardness. This prompts Paul to run home and cut their second attempt short. Meanwhile, Schmidt, empowered by memories of being in two frat houses, turns a baby shower into a weird rave. This endears him to his pregnant VP, and also undermines his nemesis at work. Speaking of weird, Nick’s haircut is pretty much that.
