'New Girl' Season 3 Spoilers: Premiere Promo VIDEO & PHOTOS; Schmidt Two-Timing Cece and Elizabeth?
Fox recently released a new promotional video and stills from the season 3 premiere episode of New Girl.
In the first episode, All In, Nick and Jess decide to go "all in" as a couple and run away to a Mexican beach town, while Schmidt makes his decision about Cece and Elizabeth. The premiere will pick up immediately after the events that took place in the season 2 finale, most notably Cece's cancelled wedding.
Fox's official synopsis for the episode includes the following:
"When Nick runs into trouble with the authorities, it's Schmidt and Winston to the (possible) rescue, which may land Nick into even deeper trouble. Meanwhile, Schmidt makes a decision regarding Cece and Elizabeth (Guest star Merrit Wever), and Winston becomes obsessed with completing a puzzle."
Stills from the premiere showed Nick (Jake Johnson) and Jess (Zooey Deschanel) enjoying their new, now official, relationship at a beach in Mexico. However, things seem to go awry, with Nick in trouble with the law and Jess asking Schmidt (Max Greenfield) and Winston (LaMorne Morris) to help him out. The whole gang gets to Mexico to get Nick out of his predicament, and in one still Schmidt even braves being tasered by a cop.
Schmidt's storyline was left with a cliffhanger in finale of the last season when he tried to sabotage Cece's wedding and was eventually forced to make a choice between Cece (Hannah Simone) and his current girlfriend, Elizabeth (Merritt Wever).
Season 3 premieres on Sept. 17 at 9 p.m. on Fox.
