You're up new girl.

It's just your undies.

Face facts.

- That's a fact, punk. Gah.

Unh. Yeah. Yeah.

[ laughs ]

Gotta take a photo of this one.

- No, no, no. Okay, all right.

- Get ready for your punishment.

- Punish me. Punish me, baby.

I'm cool with that.

- Careful what you wish for.

- Do you guys

have a bottle opener?

- [ laughing ]

- It's a twist-off.

What is this, your first party?

[ bottle cap clinks ]

- [ laughs ]

[ girl laughs ]

- Hey, girl, isn't this

the most epic night ever?

- Yes.

- We have to document this.

[ camera clicks ]

Perf. I'm posting it.

[ chuckles ]

Ah, you've discovered Jake.

Hey, Jake.

- Shh.

- What?

- Come play quarters

with me and new girl.

She's got the hots for you.

[ laughs ]

- Thanks, but I--

I gotta head home.

- She'll make it

worth your while.

- Sorry. She's an idiot.

- I know.

Hey, rain check, definitely.

- Screw Jake.

We'll have our own fun.

Come on. Let's rage.

[ piano music playing ]

[ crickets chirping ]

[ cell phone chimes ]

[ camera clicks ]

Mm, take another shot.

[ laughs ]

Oop.

- [ chuckles ]

- Dang.

- Cheers.

- Ah.

- [ sighs ]

- [ coughs ]

- Hey, you know

my friend Amber, right?

She goes to Sacred Heart.

- [ panting ]

- No. Why?

- It's just I've called and

texted her a bunch of times,

and she hasn't responded

in, like, 10 days.

- That's weird.

- I know.

It's starting

to freak me out a little bit.

I'm gonna look her up

on Facebook.

I don't know.

Hmm.

"Found an old friend

still online, sent her a note.

Dare you to do the same."

What the hell?

[ laughs ]

Oh, my God. No way.

Dude, her profile is still up.

[ scoffs ] No way.

- Who is that?

- Morgan Rose.

She, uh,

went to our middle school,

was the biggest

freak whore ever. God.

We're back.

Let's see

how bad Amber burned her.

[ laughing ]

Oh, my God.

Dude, that is, like,

so f***ed up.

Damn.

We have to do it, too. Okay.

- [ typing ]

- Mm...

Take that, b*tch.

Your turn.

Light her up.

- I could never top that.

- Okay, look,

school is starting,

and we need to show

these underclass b*tches

who runs sh*t, 'kay?

Consider this practice.

And trust me, she deserves it.

- But...

- Go on.

Dude, you're, like,

really good at this.

Oh, my God.

- I can't post that. That's...

- You did it. I'm proud of you.

[ laughs ]

Come on.

Let's take another shot.

[ birds chirping ]

[ dog barking ]

- [ sighs ]

[ sighs ]

Oh, no.

- I think

we can stop pretending.

I know you flirt with boys

on the computer

and stay out 'til 4 A.M.

- Sorry if I woke you up

last night.

- Sorry?

It's your senior year.

I want you to have fun.

- Um...

hey, are you sure

I can't go with you?

- The old house

already sold, honey.

We're just going to sign

some papers.

This is home now.

[ knock on door ]

- Hey, girls.

- [ laughs ]

- Hi.

- Jane, the cab's here.

- Oh.

- Okay, sweetie, we'll call

when we get to Grandma's?

- Okay.

- Okay, and I left you money--

- On the counter, yeah,

and you left food in the fridge.

And you left me

all the phone numbers,

even though I have them

on my phone...

- I know.

- as well as my email.

- We're dinosaurs, I know. Bye.

- Hey, no parties.

[ footsteps ]

Maybe one party.

Little one. You know,

somebody needs

to break the place in.

- Okay. [ laughs ]

[ chime ]

[ laughing ]

[ school bell rings ]

[ overlapping chatter ]

[ P.A. squeals ]

- Welcome back,

and let's give a big warm

Jefferson High welcome

to all of our new students.

- Morning.

Isn't this awesome?

My God, you're a huge hit.

I've gotten, like,

a million texts about you.

- No, no, I--

Are you serious, 'cause--

- Oh, my God, please, 'kay?

Haters gonna hate.

It's no big deal.

- Okay.

- You're on my team now, okay?

- You look nice.

- Thanks.

We'll work on yours. [ laughs ]

- My mom gave me this skirt.

- I'm just kidding.

I'm kidding. I'm kidding.

- Um, hey, this is

totally random. Uh--

- Yeah?

- Why did Amber want us

to burn that girl so bad?

- Just cause. Okay?

- I tried to delete

the comments,

because I felt really--

- Kristen,

you're so paranoid. God.

- Yeah,

but that's the weird part.

I actually couldn't do it.

Okay, and it just--

- Just listen. Drop it already.

- Hot senior chicks.

How does it feel to be on top?

- I don't know.

Feels pretty awesome, right?

- Yeah.

- I mean, almost as awesome

as the end

of my party was, loser.

- Mm, I'm the loser, huh?

- Mm-hmm.

- I mean, it was pretty awesome.

I mean,

you're welcome for that, Nicole.

- Jake.

- Hmm?

- I don't know.

Why don't you try being cool

and show the new girl to class?

Have fun.

- So, uh,

I saw the pics from the party.

- Don't worry about it.

- But it's--

- You weren't doing anything

that embarrassing.

[ school bell rings ]

Maybe I can show you

around town sometime.

Just message me.

- Yeah, o-okay.

Um, my--my Twitter is KriiisTEN,

but it has like,

three Is in it,

and then the--

the last three letters,

they're capitalized.

I should just ask Nicole

for your number.
