New Girl's long struggling couple, Jess and Nick, has finally got off the ground with their relationship. But for how long?

The roommates spent two seasons trying the fight their feelings for one another. However, the pair eventually broke down and decided to attempt a normal relationship, which appears to be going well when the third season premieres.

However, trouble is in the air for the duo, and how could it not be. Pairing the very out-going, emotionally available Jess (Zooey Deschanel) and the cantankerous, emotionally unavailable Nick (Jake Johnson) is bound to lead to quite a few problems.

Although the couple will have an eventful vacation in Mexico during the premiere, Jess will encounter some bedroom issues come episode 4. The newly re-employed teacher will turn to Nick's closest friend and sex expert, Schmidt (Max Greenfield), for some advice as to what her boyfriend may be looking for in bed, according to E! Online.

Unfortunately, everything will not go quite to plan. Titled "The Captain," the episode will see Schmidt attempt to break the two lovebirds apart, according to Spoiler TV. Whether or not he is successful is unknown, but it seems like a cruel move for someone who will be dating either Elizabeth (Merritt Wever) or Cece (Hannah Simone), by episode 3.

New Girl returns to Fox on Sept. 17.
