Quotes[]

  • Aly: I feel like I'm pretty up-to-date on your embarrassing secrets.
  • Winston: Oh, honey. I have chapters in my life you know nothing about.
  • Aly: Wait, really?
  • Winston: Here we go. I once sold knives door-to-door in high school. And Byron Allen knocked me out.
  • Aly: Yeah, that was, like, the first thing you told me when we met.
  • Winston: Oh, yeah. (laughs) I do use that as an icebreaker, I forgot. Well, here's one from deep in the storage unit. Way in the back. I once got my foot stuck in a go-kart. And I had to...
  • Aly: Hop six laps alongside of it.
  • Winston: I've been kicked out of multiple focus groups for for crying too much.
  • Aly: That happened yesterday, and I was with you.
  • Winston: I fell asleep in study hall. Had a very loud sex dream.
  • Aly: That happened to my family member, and I relayed the story to you.
  • Winston: I fell asleep in a bathtub.
  • Aly: Knew that.
  • Winston: And I once dislocated my thumb getting off a couch.
  • Aly: Okay, you got five more minutes on that hippo, and then we switch.


  • Jess: Am I the only reason they're together?
  • Schmidt and Cece: Yeah
  • Jess: Am I the architect of my own nightmare?
  • Cece: Okay, no, no, no, no, honey. It's not like you introduced them or something.
  • Schmidt: Well, they did just get together because she left for jury duty.
  • Jess: I've pushed those two together like a god on Mount Olympus, too cheap to pay for porn.
  • Schmidt: No, no, no, it's like their relationship is a flood that's about to happen and you're the little Dutch boy with your thumb in the dike.
  • Jess: Well, no more. I'm taking my thumb out of them. (groans) Is there anything other than Dutch boys or god porn? I know, pandas. I'm a zookeeper. They are my panda.
  • Schmidt and Cece: What?
  • Jess: Pandas wouldn't be alive without humans. They can't run, they can't growl, they can't even mate without us.
  • Schmidt: Have you been helping Nick and Reagan mate?
  • Jess: In a way, yes. But I'm done. This zookeeper is through handing out bamboo. Reagan and Nick deserve a chance to see if they can survive on their own. Yes, and the zookeeper deserves a chance to be on a late night show with hilarious animals that poop on the host's... I don't what am I saying anymore? I don't know.
