New Girl is the fifth episode of the first series of The Office.

Plot

David Brent decides to hire a secretary, because "he needs one". He hires an attractive woman, and ends up headbutting her. Tim Canterbury has resolved to quit his job, determined to go back to university and make something of his life. To change his mind, Brent has convinced him to go out on the town with him, Gareth and Finchy. The nightclub they select is Chasers. The evening cannot be described in any way as fun.
