Find out what happened when Jess and Ryan revealed their relationship to their co-workers on New Girl season 4, episode 13, “Coming Out.”
Winston is being hazed at work and has to wear a crystal, but he knows that it’s out of love. Schmidt is horrified to see the crystal. He’s also bothered to see that Nick and Kai are once again spending their days lounging on the couch.
But when his stomach starts hurting they finally have a reason to leave the loft. At the doctors, Nick is panicked that Schmidt might have cancer. But it’s just an ulcer. Still, the doctor tells them Schmidt needs to rest.
Nick takes his task seriously and refuses to let Schmidt go to work. But his tactics don’t work until Kai wraps him up in a blanket and puts him down for a nap.
Coach has been busy researching Jess and Ryan’s situation. He’s a found a way for them to be together in public. That way the hot teachers will stop lusting over Ryan and go back to him.
So Jess talks to principal Foster about her relationship with Ryan and he couldn’t care less. But he warns her not to show any favoritism towards Ryan or else the other teachers will attack her.
Before the teachers give their presentations about field trip proposals, Jess comes clean about her relationship with Ryan. When Jess picks the only good idea (which is Ryan’s) the other teachers are displeased. And they accuse her of picking Ryan just because they’re dating.
For the first time, the teachers are taking Jess up on her office hours. But they basically just want to complain about her relationship with Ryan. So to make them all happy she switches the field trip plans.
Coach doesn’t understand why the other female teachers still don’t want him. Winston’s advice? Get a crystal! He says that it’s been helping him all week. The two arguing wakes up Nick who realizes that Schmidt is missing. He finds him secretly working in the bathroom. Schmidt tells Nick that he feels pathetic doing nothing all day and wonders what happened to Nick that he lost all ambition.
When the Biology teacher has the students raking leaves without any real plan, Jess realizes she made a mistake. Although he puts the blame on her for picking him, he doesn’t want the students leaving. As the biology teacher and Jess argue he hits a wasp nest and they’re all attacked. Except nurse Ruth who apparently likes wasps.
Schmidt goes back to work but is suffering the pain of his ulcer. When his boss says that she plans to keep him by her side always, he’s clearly upset. His hopes have been to impress her and move up in the company.
Back at home, Nick and Schmidt make up. Schmidt realizes that he’s just been a corporate monkey. Nick doesn’t want to be a lazy bum anymore. So they decide to work together again to come up with an invention.
With the special mojo of the crystal, Jess tells the teachers that she loves her job and confesses her love for Ryan. Surprisingly, they seem to be touched by her speech. Later, Coach puts on the crystal and does some magical country dancing.
