![]() Once everything settles down, Edgar explains to Jess he’s not an ax murderer, just a graphic writer and artist. At that moment, Jess arrives leaps to the wrong conclusion, then leaps onto Edgar in an attempt to save Nick’s life. He explains that Nick isn’t a terrible larcenist, just Julius Pepperwood, and tries to bring Nick into the house to take care of him. He is pretty scruffy.Įdgar returns and sees Nick on the ground. Turns out, Edgar’s “mother” is one tough cookie and Nick looks like a sneaky thief. Then Nick gets hit on the head by a shovel. Jess calls Nick back and tells him Edgar left,and Nick tells her he’s happy she’s alive. Her phone goes off and Edgar realizes he’s heard that ringtone before. He then creeps closer and whips out a-notebook. Apparently, apricots is a suave safe word.Įdgar starts telling Jess how he has a risky ending to his story-the character has to die (and that’s risky by virtue of the fact it’s…not? Maybe irony is more dangerous than I thought). Jess’s eyes go wider than anyone with unnaturally wide eyes should go, and shouts “Apricots!” to Nick over the phone. ![]() He calls Jess and tells her, right at the same moment Edgar comes into her office. He spies more violent doodles and realizes the deer in Edgar’s story is Jess. With all this constructive criticism behind them, Nick goes back to Edgar’s house to try and find more evidence. Nick and Jess attempt to investigate further, but then Jess’s cell phone rings and they run away less like stalwart detectives and more like borderline criminal cowards. He drops it off in the suspicious location of: the garage. Once they reach the house, they hide, see what looks like Edgar’s mother, then watch Edgar pull up in a suspicious van carrying a very suspicious duffel bag. Along the way, they debate the usage of a safe word. Jess accompanies him, in case he needs backup. Nick decides he needs to gather more evidence of Edgar’s serial killer ways and goes to Edgar’s house. Cece finally tells him the secret: it’s his “barnacle toenails.” Double ick. Is it his eyebrows? His skin aberrations? The way he spies on people when they think they’re alone in the shower (oh, Schmidt, don’t go from adorable douchebag to restraining order creeper!). While he investigates, Schmidt attempts to find out what his “pogo” is. Nick continues his Sherlock impression by analyzing the contents of Edgar’s notebook. Jess tries to steal it back and fails and then has to explain to Edgar Pepperwood is her…uncle? Oooook. He spies on Edgar, sees Edgar doodle a stabbed deer and then steals Edgar’s notebook. When Jess holds her next writing class (subject: imagery) Nick infiltrates with the less than suave persona of Julian Pepperwood, writing student, man of the world and speaker of words with a bad British accent. It is, in fact, the annoying thing people do that other people talk about behind their backs. In the middle of this, it somehow is revealed that pogo-ing isn’t just inappropriate body parts touching. In the meantime, Schmidt has found out about the “moment” between Winston and Cece and confronts Winston about “pogo-ing” the model he loves. YES! Nick, the Scruffy Detective is far better than Nick the semi-employed anger management candidate. To protect her, he decides to investigate Edgar. With the ick and creep factor now on full, Nick shares his opinion that Jess is in danger because she may in fact be murdered in real life by this student. He immediately decides Edgar is a psycho, mostly because the story’s plot involves a deer metaphor, stabbing and a blood bath (literally, the protagonist bathes in blood). Nick, being the loft’s literary man (by virtue of one craptastic, unpublished zombie novel) takes it upon himself to judge Edgar’s work.
