"Aerodynamics of Gender" is the seventh episode of the second season of the American comedy television series Community, and the 32nd episode of the series overall. It aired in the United States on NBC on November 4, 2010. The two plotlines concern the women's discovery that Abed has an undiscovered talent at insulting people's appearance, and Troy and Jeff finding a secret garden with a trampoline.
After buying a radio controlled helicopter to fit in, Pierce (Chevy Chase) becomes annoyed when he finds that Jeff (Joel McHale) and Troy (Donald Glover) have lost interest in such things and taken up basketball. Annie (Alison Brie), Britta (Gillian Jacobs), and Shirley (Yvette Nicole Brown) decide to take a women's studies class. Abed (Danny Pudi) joins them, missing hints that he's not wanted.
After losing the game and suffering Troy's insults, Jeff kicks the basketball over a hedge, where the pair then find a seemingly magical secret garden that includes a trampoline. They meet Joshua (Matt Walsh), a mild-mannered Greendale gardener who keeps the area private because trampolines have been banned from the school. They find unexpected bliss in jumping on the trampoline, and Joshua allows them to continue to visit as long as they keep it a secret and never "double bounce" on the trampoline.
In women's studies, Annie, Britta, and Shirley find a trio of mean young women led by Megan (Hilary Duff) who demand their seats. Annie, Britta, and Shirley join Abed at the back of the class and find that he has an uncanny ability to pick out people's imperfections (with Abed's point of view visualized as a Terminator- or RoboCop-like display). The three encourage Abed to insult "bitches".
The next day, Pierce challenges Troy and Jeff to a game of basketball and becomes annoyed again when they say they have moved on from but refuse to explain. Troy and Jeff return to the garden, but Pierce uses his helicopter, equipped with a spy cam to follow and discovers the garden. Pierce invades the secret garden, and forces Troy to double-bounce him on the trampoline, but the effort causes him to sail off and crash into a garbage dumpster, breaking both his legs.
