Mindy Project is back! So when we last left Mindy, she was making out with Danny Castellano on a plane. Finally. The first line of the show's return was, Danny saying "I'm sorry" as momentarily break for air. This quickly evolves into an attempt at the mile high club, which of course, ends hilariously and horribly. Mindy's hair gets flushed (gross) and
Unfortunately, as Mindy and Danny return to her apartment, Cliff has taken this moment to try to get Mindy back by hiring a mirachi band. Awkward. "Cliff, I think we should break up. I'm in love with someone!" Mindy blurts out.
Mindy is just so horny for kisses. "Why are your lips so scrumptious. And those eyelashes, they're so long. You look like a pony," Mindy says. Danny and Mindy finally want to be together (yay!) but first Mindy needs to break up with Cliff. Then she remembers, she's always leading guys to break up with her. All she has to do is be her crazy self and Cliff will break up with her.
Meanwhile, Jeremy wants the practice pitching to become the official ob/gyn of the Metropolitan ballet. In his quest to find a pitching partner, we find out that Mindy unfortunately is banned from Lincoln Center, because apparently "there's a three strikes policy for falling in the fountain." Danny of course wants nothing to do with any of that, and so Jeremy is stuck with Peter, who hates the ballet.
Cliff comes over to Mindy's where she is already beginning her pursuit of the break-up. She is sitting on the toilet talking to her psychic in her PJs when he walks in. She and Cliff are gonna have 8 babies! Then she slaps him, and then kisses him. She's so good at this. Except... Cliff gets a call that his grandmother died.
Mindy tells Danny that she couldn't break up with Cliff. "No grown man is devastated when he loses a grandparent," Danny exclaims. Then she says, go talk to him and see how devastated he is. So he does, with a pack of his homebrewed beer, "Dr. Dan's Funky Ale" which is brewed in his guest bathroom (ew). Then he finds out Mindy slept over at Cliff's.
The next day, Danny then makes Mindy show him on a skeleton where Cliff touched her the previous evening.
At Gram's funeral, Mindy and Danny accidentally set the church on fire while making out, and Mindy is finally forced to tell Cliff the truth. Cliff punches Danny in the face. But yay, they are now free to french each other as much as they want! Unfortunately, they may be haunted by Gram.
What did you think about the return of the Mindy Project?
