New Girl Trivia Questions

Question 1

11 Schmidt frequently likes reminding everybody that he's rich. It's a good thing that he is because when his roommates call him out on his behavior with the word "jar", what does he have to donate money to?

Answer

Answer: A douchebag jar

Schmidt is played by Max Greenfield and he is the resident ladies man. He has a tendency of saying or doing off-colored things. So whenever he acts like a douchebag, he is required to donate to the douchebag jar. It is such a regular occurrence that his friends can just say the word jar and in mid-sentence, without breaking stride, he'll put money in the jar.
Schmidt is also well-known for taking his shirt off whenever he can, so I made up the "no-shirt jar" since it would be another way for the gang to make more money off of him.

Question 2

12 In season two, Jess dated a doctor played by David Walton. Was his name?

Answer

Answer: Sam

Jess met Dr. Sam on a blind date, only it was not HER blind date, it was his. She was sitting at the bar where Nick worked and he walked up to her thinking she was his date. She was instantly attracted to him so she allowed him to think it. She intended only to use him for sex, but eventually they both wanted more, at least for a little while. David Walton went on to play Will on "About A Boy", and Will ended up with a girlfriend named "Dr. Sam", played by Adrianne Palicki. Adrianne had the distinction of being the girlfriend of "Sam" Winchester, famously killed in the pilot episode of "Supernatural". Is this just a big "Sam" coincidence? We may never know...

Question 3

13 Who does Jess trust the most in the house?

Answer

Answer: Nick

Nick has had her back from day one. He proves this in the first episode when she is stood up by her rebound. He forces Schmidt and Coach to leave the Wild West party to show up at dinner.

Question 4

14 Especially Schmidt, but the others as well, like badgering Nick for not living up to his full potential. What did Nick drop out of before becoming a bartender?

Answer

Answer: Law school

Nick is played by Jake Johnson. We ger a bit more of Nick's background in the episode "The Story of the 50" when he starts dating Julia who is a lawyer and she is surprised to learn that Nick went to law school.

Question 5

15 In the "Spiderhunt" episode, Schmidt hoped to impress his new girlfriend Fawn with the one food item that Nick was good at creating. What was the name given to this specialty food?

Answer

Answer: The Sauce

In the opening scene, Nick could be seen stirring an enormous stock pot. When the camera panned into it, The Sauce was brown and appeared to potentially be some sort of chocolate fondue. According to Schmidt, not only was it fondue, but it was so great he believed it would impress Fawn Moscato on her first visit to the loft. A bit later, as Nick stirred the pot and tended his "baby", he was seen adding mustard, mayo and bologna into it. Winston called it bolognese, contradicting the fondue reference. At the end, Fawn said it tasted like the inside of a bear, and she meant it as a compliment. Zoe Lister-Jones played Councilwoman Fawn.

Ron-Ron Juice was the special creation of Ronnie on the MTV reality series "The Jersey Shore".

Question 6

16 Which roommate was a professional athlete in the two years prior to season one?

Your options:

Winston

Jess

Schmidt

Kyle

Answer

Answer: Winston

Winston played professional basketball in Latvia before returning to Los Angeles to be roommates with Nick and Schmidt once more. It was unclear when exactly he'd last been their roommate, but it was made known that he'd been their roomie before Coach. Winston had a tendency to doubt himself after basketball, and a tendency to go too light or too heavy on a prank. He loved to play pranks, but finally admitted at the end of season two that he was not good at it. There was no roomie named Kyle in the first three seasons.

Question 7

17 Who does Schmidt have an intimate relationship with, and hides it from the rest of the roommates?

Answer

Answer: Cece

Schmidt doesn't want to hide the relationship but is forced to when Cece threatens to end whatever they had.

Question 8

18 All of the characters have had difficulties in their love lives, but Jess is ready for a mature, grown-up relationship when she starts dating the father of one of her students. What is his name?

Answer

Answer: Russell Schiller

Dermot Mulroney plays Russell Schiller also known as Fancyman. He's rich and successful and handsome and is a major donator to Jess's school. So when she insults him when he criticizes her teaching style, she's supposed to apologize. Instead, she finds herself dating him. Also in the episode "Fancyman Part 1", Nick is drawn to Russell's rich and successful lifestyle.

Question 9

19 In "Walk of Shame", Coach introduced the gang to his new girlfriend May. What musical instrument did she play?

Answer

Answer: Cello

Coach was first afraid that Nick and Winston would embarrass him in front of his new, more sophisticated than normal, girlfriend. But, it turned out that he felt a bit inferior to her himself. She really did like him, and even learned the theme for 'Monday Night Football' on her cello. And, at the end of the episode she joined in with Jess, Bearclaw, and Jess' ex-boyfriend Paul on a interactive song about woodland creatures.

Meaghan Rath played May. She had previously starred in four seasons of "Being Human" which ended in 2014. But, in 2015 she had guest spots on this show and the series "Banshee" and a part on the series "Secrets and Lies". Bearclaw was played once more by Josh Gad. Josh may be best known as the voice of Olaf the snowman in the Disney hit "Frozen".

Question 10

20 Who wants to have a threesome with Jess and Nick?

Answer

Answer: The landlord

The landlord refuses to ever help out the guys but then he sees an opportunity to have sex with Jess and is glad to step in. Nick is aware of his intentions and decides to tag along while the landlord works around the house but the landlord gets the wrong impression and believes Nick also wants a little piece of the action.
