Initially, she refuses, however later he comes to see her again with pizza, and to help him be nice again she tells him to eat the pizza. They then begin dating, although Schmidt is initially embarrassed about her being his girlfriend, but he decides he does like her.
She attends Cece’s wedding with him, and everything goes well until Cece announces that she wants to be with someone else (namely Schmidt). Elizabeth believes he has feelings for his ex, and so she and Cece force him to choose which one of them he wants.
