* DroppedInTheToilet: Winston plans to streak during Schmidt and Cece's wedding as a stalling tactic while Schmidt is stranded at the airport. He is changing in a portable toilet when Jess calls him to stop, and that's when he drops his clothes ''and'' phone inside the toilet. This forces him to wear "pants" made of toilet paper, and he later swaps those out for the curtain from a phone booth.

* WeddingEpisode: The episode is all about Schmidt and Cece's wedding.
