00:02 - This is a letter from the University of Oxford.
00:04 It says I won a scholarship.
00:05 - A full ride to Oxford?
00:07 - Wait.
00:08 - Did you just get here now or?
00:10 - Carolyn.
00:11 - Edward.
00:12 - Oh God.
00:13 - Sorry.
00:13 (upbeat music)
00:16 - First time in the UK?
00:19 - What gave it away?
00:20 - The stars in your eyes.
00:24 - I have a lot to do and I need to stay focused.
00:29 - I think it's about time Dr. Drake loosened up.
00:31 - I second that notion.
00:33 - Cheers ladies.
00:34 - Your friends, they um,
00:35 signaled to you before they left.
00:36 - Signaled.
00:37 - Like that.
00:39 - Oh God.
00:40 - T.D.H.
00:42 - Tall, dark and handsome.
00:43 - Yeah, well he's proving to be quite the distraction.
00:46 - There's a lot you don't know about me.
00:47 - I know and it's killing me, come on.
00:49 - Has anyone ever told you that you're difficult?
00:52 - Well this has been great.
00:54 - More tea anyone?
00:57 - This is why I'm here, to work and earn my doctorate.
01:00 And someone explained to me that I was in danger
01:02 of losing my scholarship.
01:03 Whatever you think this is, I can assure you, you're wrong.
01:07 - You wear this brave face,
01:12 but inside you're just as scared as everybody else.
01:14 - You do not know what I've been through.
01:16 - You pour over the words of dead people,
01:19 but you don't let yourself feel those same things.
01:21 - The strength you speak of,
01:27 perhaps you're looking for it in the wrong place.
01:29 - Talk to him.
01:32 - Why?
01:33 - Because you love him.
01:35 - So what happens now?
01:36 - That's the question, isn't it?
