01:24Kirk.
01:25Jacqueline.
01:26I'm going to assign you to psych 110
01:28since that's the prerequisite for everything else.
01:30Next semester, if you decide to double major,
01:32you can beef up your psych classes.
01:34Okay.
01:35Newberry, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
01:42It says here your first major is English.
01:44Do you want to go ahead and declare that?
01:46Uh, sure.
01:48Okay.
01:49I have the 209 syllabus.
01:51Can I just leave it with you?
01:53Yeah, thanks.
01:54Longest wait list in the entire department.
01:57Once again, start.
01:58And I know how you do it.
02:03Do you have any questions for me?
02:06Uh, no.
02:07No, sir.
02:09Okay, here is your schedule for the fall
02:13and a copy of your student manual.
02:16I have to tell you,
02:17my wife and I really loved your show.
02:21We never missed an episode.
02:23Well, that's very nice of you to say.
02:25Thank you, Professor Huckett.
02:27You're welcome.
02:33All right, here's your room.
02:35You have plenty of closet space,
02:37so that's nice.
02:39Also, when you set up the phone,
02:41if you have any problems with it,
02:42just let me know
02:43because it can be kind of tricky sometimes.
02:47Looks like you've got your own bathroom.
02:49That's kind of special.
02:51Here's your key.
02:52Thanks.
02:56You know, it's really rare for a freshman
03:00to get a single around here.
03:03Yeah, that's what I heard.
03:05Actually, it's really hard for anyone to get one.
03:21You'll have two quizzes,
03:25a midterm and a final,
03:27and if you all look at your syllabus,
03:29you'll see that the first quiz
03:30is only three weeks away.
03:32For anyone that's interested,
03:33I've set up sign-up sheets
03:34outside my office for study groups.
03:36I highly recommend it, people.
03:43Have a nice day.
03:51Okay, your essay topics are
03:53issues in the 19th century,
03:56prose throughout the 20th century,
03:59and lastly,
04:00literature during the First World War.
04:03Any questions?
04:05Any questions?
04:25Jackie, honey?
04:26We know you're probably busy,
04:27but I just wanted to check on you.
04:29Are you keeping the same cell number?
04:31You said you were.
04:32Anyway, Dad and I miss you,
04:34and we'd really like to hear from you, so...
04:57Is this Psych 110 Newberry?
04:59Yes.
05:01Am I late?
05:03Not at all. Have a seat.
05:04I'm Rachel. Nice to meet you.
05:06Jackie.
05:07Yeah, we know.
05:08Sandy.
05:09Hi.
05:10So, is Psych your major, too?
05:12Uh, hopefully it'll be my second major.
05:14I'm registered as English Lit for now.
05:16Oh.
05:17Did you sign up for the research participation yet?
05:19It's a requirement.
05:20Graduate student ask, I sing.
05:22I haven't. Thank you.
05:24Research is like drug testing.
05:26Oh, I heard it's pretty stupid, really.
05:28Like, how fast can you name a color or whatever?
05:31We should all do it together as a group
05:33and get it out of the way.
05:35This must be quite a change for you.
05:37Sorry?
05:38From working on that show for so long.
05:40I mean, did you even get a chance to go to school at all?
05:42Phil.
05:44Um, did Newberry say if the midterm was gonna be multiple choice?
05:48Yeah, because he totally can't read.
05:50Unlike Stark.
05:51I heard she makes you spell everything out.
05:54Who's Stark?
05:55Oh, she teaches 209, Abnormal Psych.
05:57It's actually a really good class.
05:59I think I saw her once.
06:00She sleeps with her students, and when the school finds out,
06:02they all mysteriously disappear.
06:04I heard they found a body once in her trunk.
06:06Zach, they don't vanish.
06:08They probably just leave the school.
06:10Has she ever tried to do that with you?
06:12I don't think boys are exactly her bag.
06:15I heard she does both.
06:17I heard she was a vampire.
06:18I heard that she's in a witness protection program
06:21because her dad is in the mob.
06:23Guys, can we please get back to the textbook?
06:26Is it true that Tyler was supposed to be gay
06:29and she was going to come out on the series finale?
06:32I mean, that's why Tyler had a boy's name and everything.
06:35Cool it with homophobia, okay?
06:37Who cares?
06:38What homophobia?
06:39It's a valid question.
06:40I'm a fan.
06:41I want to know.
06:42You know, I have no idea.
06:43I wasn't on the writing staff,
06:44but you should ask them if it's so important to you.
06:47According to my sister,
06:49what Professor Newberry says in class
06:51is actually more important than what we read in the textbooks.
06:54But are they being mean to you?
06:55Do they make fun of you?
06:57No, it's not like that.
06:58It's just like there's nothing else to talk about but the show.
07:01Well, they don't know you yet, honey.
07:02That's all they have to go on right now.
07:04But they don't know each other either.
07:06I mean, that doesn't seem to stop them
07:07from having a normal conversation.
07:09Well, I still don't understand why you wanted to go to college
07:12on the other side of the country anyway.
07:14There's plenty of good schools here in California,
07:16and you know, you probably wouldn't be having that problem here.
07:19What problem?
07:20Of people being curious about you.
07:23You know, you never could handle that very well.
07:26You're not helping, Mom.
07:27Oh, Jacqueline, don't play the victim.
07:30I'm just saying, I still don't know why you're putting yourself through this.
07:34And you don't even have Mark to help you anymore.
07:36I don't want to talk about Mark, Mother.
07:38All right, all right.
07:39Sorry.
07:42You think me quitting school is just going to make everything better?
07:45Lillian.
07:46Oh, coming.
07:47Sorry.
07:48Honey, I have to hang up now.
07:49I'll call you tomorrow.
07:50Get some sleep.
07:51Mom, I'm not going to be around tomorrow.
07:53Can you just...
07:58Okay.
08:10Here, let me help you with those.
08:12Thanks.
08:21It's funny how these people can afford tuition but not manners.
08:24That's what I've noticed.
08:28Is this a projector or a camera?
08:30Huh? Sorry?
08:32This?
08:33Oh, neither.
08:34It's an ECT machine.
08:36It's like a 1940.
08:38Oh, so it's like a prop?
08:40No.
08:41No, it's the real thing.
08:43Cool.
08:44Where'd you get it?
08:46I stole it.
08:49ECT, huh?
08:50Is it for recording something?
08:54No, it's for shocking people.
08:57Electroconvulsive therapy.
08:59Why would you do that?
09:02It's a form of treatment.
09:05Does this one work?
09:10I don't know.
09:12I haven't used it in a while.
09:17Okay.
09:19I gotta go to class now.
09:23Have fun.
09:26Okay.
09:34What's going on?
09:35Not much.
09:36Hey, did you guys know there's a mixer on Thursday?
09:39You mean for the department?
09:40Yeah. Are you going?
09:42I guess we have to. Are you?
09:44That's my name.
09:45I usually teach 209,
09:47but Newbery had an emergency,
09:49so I'm filling in for him.
09:53Can anybody tell me what chapter you guys are working on?
10:01Um...
10:02I...
10:03I...
10:04I...
10:05I...
10:06I...
10:07I...
10:08I...
10:09I...
10:10I...
10:11I...
10:12I...
10:13I...
10:14I...
10:17We watched a video last time, ma'am.
10:20Is that so?
10:21Yes, ma'am.
10:23Was it relevant to the course in any way?
10:25I think so.
10:31I think we gained an answer before graduation.
10:33We had a video on correlation,
10:36and we stopped on page 34.
10:41Well...
10:42When studying correlation,
10:44it is important to remember that...
10:46Okay.
10:47Freaking vampire lesbo.
10:52Bet you don't have parties nearly this fun in Hollywood.
10:55No, I've never been to any.
10:57Hey, look who's here.
10:58What? Who?
11:00Oh, God.
11:01Why does she have to be so creepy?
11:03Do you want me to call her over here for you?
11:04Yeah. Didn't you say you wanted to talk to her?
11:07I talked to her the other day.
11:09You did?
11:10Lose any limbs?
11:12No. No permanent damage.
11:14Hey, Rach, come with me.
11:16Scary Barry is finally alone.
11:18I need to talk him into pushing back the midterm.
11:20What?
11:21She can babysit herself for five minutes.
11:39♪
12:10Why are you hiding back here?
12:12I'm not. I wasn't hiding.
12:15You're supposed to be mingling.
12:17Sorry.
12:19It's okay.
12:21These fucking mixers are more boring than the classes anyways.
12:25I don't think we were formally introduced.
12:28Catherine Stark.
12:29Jacqueline Kirk.
12:30Ah, right. The famous one.
12:33Yeah.
12:35Jacqueline Kirk.
12:36Ah, right. The famous one.
12:39So are you from what I hear.
12:41Really? What'd you hear?
12:43Uh, stuff from my friends.
12:47Stuff from your friends?
12:50What'd they say?
12:53That I should stay away from you.
12:56Uh, well, then you should probably listen to what they say.
13:26Are you okay?
13:28Mm-hmm.
13:32You want to come back to my place?
13:34What? No.
13:39This is Ethan. He's the man of the house.
13:42Ethan? You're like John Wayne in The Searchers.
13:46Wow. You guessed right.
13:48I did?
13:49Yeah.
13:50Do I get a prize?
13:53Hi, baby. Hi, baby.
13:55Come with me.
14:25Are you okay?
14:32Uh-huh.
14:35Are you sure?
14:40Have you ever done this before?
14:43You have.
14:46Once, I think.
14:48You think?
14:51Yeah, but I'm not supposed to say who with.
14:53She's on TV.
14:55Oh, of course. I understand.
15:06Do you want to leave?
15:09No.
15:12Will you let me know if you do?
15:21Okay, close your eyes.
15:40Don't forget to breathe.
15:44Good girl.
15:49Can I lie next to you?
16:17What should I do now?
16:20What do you want to do?
16:23I don't know.
16:28Are you scared?
16:35Don't be.
17:04Okay.
17:32Are you okay?
17:40Are you okay?
