The majority of Never Have I Ever is narrated by professional tennis player John McEnroe particularly in scenes and episodes revolving the main character Devi with the latter often showing flashes of McEnroe's legendary temper and references to past tennis matches. Two of the episodes are narrated by Andy Samberg for Ben, and another two by Gigi Hadid for Paxton. The narrators, often breaking the fourth wall, give insight into the thoughts of each character and their personal struggles. Hoping to attend Columbia University to impress his father, Ben ignores advice from Patty and Principal Grubbs about not working too hard. However, after Ben experiences abdominal pain, Paxton takes him to a hospital where Ben receives an emergency surgery for fecal impaction. During his hospitalization, Ben helps Paxton on his college essay about how he looks after his adopted sister. The quality of the essay impresses Principal Grubbs. After the experience, Ben takes the advice given and decides not to overwork while improving his relationship with his father, who tells him that he is proud of him. Ben even decides not to stress over Devi, giving her good advice about approaching Des for a date. Des ultimately tells Devi he didn't text her because he could see she was interested in Paxton. Devi assures him she and Paxton are over, and the two agree to a date. Voiceover by Andy Samberg.
