I told you so.
You were adopted.
Everyone...
I would like to propose
a toast to our graduates.
To the Class of 2006...
...may the next four years
of college...
...be the best years
of your life.
Hear, hear.
Mom.
Hey.
Hey, man, what's up?
What's up, B? How you doin'? What's up?
Dude, I swear,
if one more person tells me...
...how excited they are to go
to college, I'm gonna lose it.
Oh, man, I heard about the scholarship.
That's insane. You're one of
the best receivers in the state.
Uh, the best. And, uh,
no knee, no football, man.
That sucks.
What are you gonna do now?
I have no idea.
That makes two of us, pal.
It's fine, it's fine, it's
fine, it's fine, it's fine.
Hey, Rory. What's goin' on?
Oh, hey. What? Fine. Nothing.
Um, I... I didn't get into Yale.
I did... I didn't,
I didn't get into Yale.
I didn't...
I didn't get into Yale.
What? I can't
believe that!
Well, there's no room
for Rory at Yale.
Too many rich kids
with mediocre grades...
...and well-connected parents
this year, I guess.
No room for Rory,
who's been working...
...since first grade
to get into Yale.
Rory, who only applied
to Yale and nowhere else.
I had it all planned!
It was perfect, B!
Perfect!
And now
it's nothing! Nada!
It's a goose egg!
Okay. Well.
God, Rory! Rory!
She's handling that
really well.
College
is for pussies!
All right. I got to get out of here, pal.
Hang in there.
All right, man. You, too.
Bartleby! Hey! Oh, hey, Mr.
Schrader. I was actually just...
Did you have any cake?
No, you know, I'm not much of a cake guy.
Oh, it is a hell
of a cake.
It is the same cake we got for Scotty
and Seth when they got into Harmon.
Oh, ah, everything
comes full circle.
Jay! How are ya, bud?
Oh, I really don't...
Hey, Stu.
Hey.
I can't imagine your pride,
knowing your youngest...
...is headed off to a good
college. Must take a load off.
Yeah, well, not to mention...
...the load it takes off
my bank account.
Dad.
Nothin' like gettin'
a load off!
What about you,
Bartleby?
That's a good question,
Mr. Harkin.
What's with the questions,
Mr. Trebek?
Where you goin'?
Um, I... I., well...
I didn't really, uh...
now he's not goin' to college.
He's thrown his life away.
Yeah, that's... That's what
I was gonna say. Thanks, Dad.
Wait. South Harmon
Institute of Technology?
Yeah. B, you realize that
makes it S.H.I.T., right?
S.H.I.T.?
I was wingin' it. Whatever.
Just finish building
the website, please.
This is the act of a desperate,
wildly unrealistic person.
Yo, B, you have to hook me up with
one of these acceptance letters, bro.
Are you kidding me? No way.
Why not?
Oh, come on. The only way this is
gonna work is if we keep it quiet.
And even then,
it's still a long shot.
Dude, I don't care.
I have to do somethin'.
The minute
I lost my scholarship...
...my pop started talkin' about
me getting my own bus route.
Help me. Please?
Mmm.
You know something?
For the safety of the public,
I can't let you drive a bus.
Sweet.
But listen to me.
This is just a temporary
stopgap measure, okay?
Nothing more.
Gotcha.
Bravo, guys. Great.
Both of you guys.
Let's start this fake college. And then
we'll go start a meth lab somewhere.
Come on. It's a gateway crime. What?
That's how these things start.
You know something, Schrader...
...you got into
a great college.
And your future's
lookin' really good...
...and I'm psyched for you, pal, 'cause
you're my best friend and I love you.
I'm talking about me coming
to you, asking for your help.
Just finish
the damn website.
Please.
What do you say?
There he is!
Fine.
Get off me,
you idiot.
But we need some sort of, like,
mission statement or something.
Your dad's gonna want to see
that. I know him, he's a hard-ass.
Hey, kids. Honey!
Hey. Hi. How are you? Hey.
What's this?
South Harmon Institute of Technology?
What's that?
Mmm? What's that?
One of the most respected schools
in the area, that's what that is.
Well, what's it say?
I gotta open it first.
Come on, hurry.
Oh. I'm nervous.
"Dear Bartleby...
"congratulations,
you've been accepted!"
I got in!
I got in!
Hey-o!
Oh! God!
Honey.
I'm okay.
Hey, this is great!
It's so exciting!
What the hell is South Harmon
Institute of Technology? Yeah.
Oh, it's one of
Harmon College's sister schools.
I've never heard of it.
Well, because
it's the baby sister.
It's the most discreet and
unharmed of the sister schools.
You got any literature
on this place?
Yeah, there's a website,
I'll show you the link.
You did it.
You're a college boy.
Wow.
So you guys want to eat?
Yeah.
Hey! I hate my life.
I'm a huge tool.
Have fun being hot.
Bartleby!
Hey, Dad, what's up?
I took a look
at that website.
Oh.
Cool.
It looks unreal.
Unreal?
Yeah, it looks
pretty unbelievable, huh?
It seems
like a solid place.
Really?
Here you go.
First semester's tuition.
Paid in full.
That's great.
Wow, thank you, Dad.
Oh, sorry. Sorry.
Thanks, Dad.
Your mother and I
can't wait to drop you off.
What we need to do
is lease a place near Harmon...
...so we can fool our parents.
Yeah.
Hey, Schrad, do you know any
places up near Harmon we can rent?
Oh, yeah, I do,
actually.
with me at all times...
...of abandoned buildings
for fake colleges.
Dude, I started you guys
a bank account already.
What do you want me to be,
your realtor?
Oh, hey, guys.
What's up?
Hey, what's up, Glen?
Hey.
Hey, Glen...
...when did you start working
at the Kwik 'N Stop?
Since I got boned, hard,
by every college I applied to.
Why, what happened?
Some political crap.
I got a zero on my SATs.
You know
you get 600 points...
...just for signing
your name, right?
All right,
let's get serious, man.
place to pass off as a college?
Hey, guys! I know a place.
How'd you know
about this place?
I used to do
volunteer work here.
This
place is awesome.
'Cause now I can
finally get hepatitis.
A bird in the hand, dude.
A bird in the hand.
That doesn't
make any sense.
It's a saying.
What?
A diamond in the rough.
Hope you guys
have hobo-stab insurance.
Great.
The birthplace of crack.
Hello, beautiful.
Hey! Hey, guys,
don't go in there.
This is breaking
and entering.
Schrader, come on.
Don't be scared.
Who's scared? I'm not scared. You're scared.
Schrader, you were scared to
try the new flavor of Dr. Pepper.
I told you that
in confidence, Hands.
Schrader, you were afraid
when your tooth fell out...
...because you were terrified
of the tooth fairy.
That's actually
a legitimate fear.
She was rifling
through my sh*t.
Okay, Fine, whatever, dude, stay here.
Fine. I will.
Okay, guys, seriously...
I don't want to be here alone
when the walls start to bleed.
We don't have
We just have to focus
on essential areas.
