Hey, I'll see you, Rasheed.
I'll see you in math class.
You owe me 30 bucks,
by the way.
You jokester.
Here we are. You remember Hands.
Hey, Mrs. Gaines.
Hey, hi.
The fam.
You look great.
Well, thank you.
When I first saw it, I was
like, I gotta live here?
I can't believe this.
But it's a dorm room.
Mr. Gaines.
Daryl, how are you, partner?
Oh, thunder grip.
Why are there bars
on the window?
Oh, that's so nobody
accidentally gets thrown out.
It's fine. It's a good learning environment.
Not a lot of extras.
You'll study harder.
Yes. We will, because of the
blue and the sparse walls.
I agree with you, sir.
What are these?
That's in case
of an earthquake.
Uh, never mind that.
Hey, let's go meet the dean.
Huh?
The dean.
Come here, honey.
Come on.
Which way?
Take a right there, Mom.
It's gonna be fun.
You know,
a lot of people say...
...that college is the time
when young men and women...
...expand the way
that they look at their world...
...when they open their minds
to new ideas and experiences...
...and when they begin
that long journey...
...from the innocence of youth...
...to the responsibilities
of adulthood.
Now isn't that
a load of horseshit?
W- What?
Could you explain that
to us a little more?
Uh, Dean Lewis,
why don't you tell them...
philosophy here at South Harmon?
Look, we throw a lot of fancy
words in front of these kids...
to going to school...
...in the belief that they're
gonna have a better life.
And we all know
that all we're doing...
...is breeding
a whole new generation...
...of buyers and sellers.
Buyers and sellers!
Pimps and whores.
Pimps and whores!
And indoctrinating them into a
life-long hell of debt and indecision.
I...
Um...
I... I just don't understand.
Do I have
to spoon-feed it to you?
Look, there's only one reason...
...that kids
want to go to school.
Holy sh*t.
Which is?
To get a good job.
To get a good job,
I couldn't agree more.
It is so refreshing
to have somebody...
...approach education
so rationally.
F***in' A!
Well, Dad. Ow.
Oh, Mom.
You make us proud, kiddo.
I'll try, Dad.
Don't worry about
anything, okay?
Bye, honey.
Seat belts.
Spread your wings.
I'm gonna fly.
You gotta let me fly.
Bye, Lizzie.
Bye!
Bye!
So what do we do now?
Well, my friend,
we're in college now.
We can do whatever we want.
Gotta hand it to you, B.
Kids everywhere are busting
their ass in the classroom...
...and we're killing
aliens, dude.
This is way better than learning.
We are learning here, pal.
We're learning the dire cost to
civilization when diplomacy fails.
We're learning political science right now.
What the...
What the hell is that?
Who is it?
Abernathy
Darwin Dunlap, sir.
Hi, there!
What's your name?
My name's
Abernathy Darwin Dunlap.
But you could call me A.D.D...
...on account of the fact
that I have A.D.D...
...which is Attention Deficit Disorder
and you know...
...everyone used to think it was just
an addiction to sugar when I was six...
...and my mom used to cry because
she thought I would never be...
...like, a fully functioning
member of society...
...like my neighbor
who has Legionnaire's Disease.
Oh...
This is no longer
I'm so sorry
we can't help you.
Good luck to you, pal.
I don't need a hospital!
Okay, okay, wh-wh-what
are you doing here, then?
Well, unless
I misread the website...
I'm here for orientation!
Oh, you scared me for a
second. In more ways than one.
Uh, you're looking
for Harmon College...
...it's just right on
up the hill.
But good luck, have fun.
Go, Harmon.
No! I'm looking for South
Harmon Institute of Technology...
...because, well,
it's the only place I got accepted...
...and I'm looking
to pursue my degree in English...
...or law or animal husbandry
or anything really!
Did you just say
you got accepted here?
Well, yeah, yeah, yeah,
we all did.
What?
Thank you so much!
Oh, God.
Holy balls.
I'm sorry.
Move, fool.
Oh, look, there's
my old girlfriend, Sara Pelfan.
You broke my heart!
Please.
Oh, uh, sorry, sorry. No
parents allowed past this point.
It's part of our philosophy
here at South Harmon.
We need to mold
your kids into individuals...
...and the first step is to...
...sever the ties of
the parent-child relationship.
Take him.
We're just glad
Larry got in someplace.
He's your problem now.
Bye, hon. No biting!
Hey, Larry.
Okay, good talk.
Go on in there.
Larry. Unfortunately.
What are we gonna do?
This is supposed
to be a secret.
Yeah, well, I guess
the secret's out.
You go check the P.O. Box, I'm
gonna go find Schrader, okay?
Hey, pledge guy,
welcome to B.K.E. House.
Can I take
your blazer for you?
Get in there, your future
is right in there.
Thank you.
All right.
Oh, sh*t.
Oh, my gosh. I'm so sorry. Sorry.
Bartleby. Hey, how are you?
Hey, how you doing?
Good. I'm so sorry
about your jacket.
It's... It's not even my jacket.
Perfect. So, what are you doing here?
I'm, I'm looking for Schrader,
actually. Have you seen him?
Uh, no, I haven't.
Hey, I'm Sherman Schrader.
I'll catch up with you.
Hey.
I'm Sherman Schrader. Okay.
This is fun.
I'm just gonna hang back...
...while you guys shoot around
and stuff, you know.
Oh, sh*t.
I got it.
Oh.
That's a... It's a G chord.
I used to play
in a Cranberries tribute band.
Uh, we disbanded.
Hey, you're Sherman Schrader.
Yeah.
Hoyt Ambrose.
Yes, right. I know.
Yes. You are the president
of this whole fraternity.
That's right. Right.
You date Monica Moreland.
That I do.
Right.
when I masturbate.
What?
What?
I didn't mean to say that.
Yeah. So, uh, Sherman's father pledged
alongside my father back in the day.
Oh, so you're the legacy.
That's right. Legacy!
You need... You probably
need this to play, actually.
Was it here?
Uh, was it there? Was it...
So... So do you go
to school here now, or...
I don't. Uh,
I go to South Harmon.
Did you say South Harmon?
Yes, I did.
Oh, what's that?
Hmm?
Wha-What's South Harmon?
South Harmon is...
It's a college...
...just a very small college.
Teeny, tiny college.
That's great. Well,
congratulations to you. Thank you.
Hey, sweetie.
Hey!
Oh, my gosh,
I was so excited for you...
Actually, can you just give me
just one sec, okay? Thanks.
Hey, winner, Hoyt Ambrose.
Floyd Pambrose.
That's weird.
Our names rhyme.
Yeah, that is
pretty weird.
That's kind of crazy.
Welcome to B.K.E.
Thanks. It's great.
I love it here.
All the sexually repressed energy. Oh.
I love it. A lot of anti-Semitism,
but under the rug, you know.
I like it, I like the way
you handle your business.
Thanks. Thanks a lot.
Well, hey, why don't you just
hang around and meet some guys?
Oh, no, thanks, man,
