Everyone please.

Please.

It's my unfortunate responsibility

to share with you some terrible news.

It seems that over the weekend

your fellow student, Marina Mills,

committed suicide.

Is it true that she filmed it on her web-cam?

One of your classmates died,

and all you care about is whether you can see it?

There was a video uploaded to the university

website this morning.

Some of you were crafty enough

to grab it before we could take it down.

I urge you not to watch it.

Anyone caught sharing it

will be suspended - period.

No discussion.

Are any of you friends with Marina?

Or have any info that could shed light

on this tragedy,

If so, see me after class.

Liv, this video is so cute!

- So not scary.

- Right.

That was so good.

Hey.

- Hey.

- Hey.

- Hey. - Hello...

Someone didn't come home last night!

Yeah, again.

- So are you like monogamous now?

- Liv, it's not a dirty word. Jesus!

I know, I'm just jealous...

for being dumped.

You were not dumped.

You knew him for one day.

It was an amazing day!

So you're in a relationship?

Here we go...

No, it's super cool. Really.

I just...

love all these precious updates

about you and Dr. Surfboard.

- Good for you.

- Oh shut up!

Another argument why internet addiction disorder

doesn't belong in the DSM

is that it's frequently

symptomatic of other disorders:

depression, anxiety, trauma.

Often it's an escape from things

we don't want to deal with.

From our everyday lives

to things far, far worse.

But the most common disorder might just be

that we have too much time on our hands.

Play it cool.

Wait a few days.

He already knows I'm not cool.

I think we might have an excellent

example of internet addiction disorder

right here in class.

Besides from Miss Woodson and Miss Matheson...

Does anyone else here experience symptoms?

- I love it!

- I like that.

- And this is good.

- I really like that filter.

I can show you how to do it.

- Look at Kobe.

- Jesus. When's he going to get over you?

- He's such a creeper.

- He is not a creeper!

- Who is that?

- That girl in my class.

Zero friends sounds like super-weird.

Maybe she just started her profile or something.

Is she like 12 years old?

Ha.

She's really talented.

I like it.

- You like it when she rips her hair out during class?

- Come on.

I literally saw her pull an eyelash out today.

It's a condition called trichotillomania.

You would know about it if you

cracked open a textbook once in a while.

- Owned!

- Oh well, whatever...

- I'm actually changing majors next year.

- And the year after that?

- Ow! Two-fer!

- Whatever!

What are you cooking? Seafood curry?

My dad was a psychiatrist,

so I guess I want to follow in his footsteps.

That's nice.

Are you doing it for credit,

or do you really just want to do it?

I'm not sure.

I just transferred.

- I don't know anyone yet.

- Well, now you know me.

Are you in the dorms?

My friends and I just got an apartment.

It's amazing...

But we're definitely not getting any work done.

- Too many friends.

- Exactly.

I'll see you around campus.

Bye Laura.

- I thought med students had homework.

- You're one to talk.

Well I'm studying - Internet Addiction Disorder.

- And you're your own case study.

- Exactly.

What's the deal with this girl?

I don't know. I think she's lonely.

Is she your friend

or your first mental patient?

She'll be my second mental patient.

She's going through every post

I've ever made in my life.

Wow! She's crazy.

- Look what she just sent me.

- I want to see.

Oh.

It looks like you guys are going

to live happily ever after together.

Oh my God!

- Who is this person?

- I don't know.

Scroll down. I want to see her time-line.

Further.

Further.

Jesus!

No wonder this girl's giving you nightmares!

Close this.

Oh my God.

Laura, this girl isn't right.

Why are you hanging out with her?

I was just trying to be nice.

I can't believe you invited her to your birthday!

No, I did not invite her. She invited herself.

- What was I supposed to say?

- How about something like "F*** no!"

Yeah, that sounds about right to me.

- Well you can't say that to someone.

- Yes you can.

It goes like this:

- Hey Laura, can I come to your birthday?

- F*** no!

There you go.

Laura, finally! Happy Birthday.

You look so pretty!

Thanks, Marina.

- Did you get my messages?

- Yes, how could I miss them?

Are you mad at me? Did I do something wrong?

No, I'm not mad at you, I'm just...

I'll see you in class tomorrow, OK?

But what about tonight?

Aren't you celebrating with your friends?

Uh... It's just Tyler and I tonight.

We're going out to dinner. So...

It's just the two of us.

But you barely know her.

It's just tonight it's you and your friends.

I know, I just feel icky lying about it.

Well, you don't look very icky to me.

Go on.

- Laura! Hooray!

- Hi! Happy Birthday!

- Hi, Mom!

- Happy Birthday!

- Very nice.

- Pleased to meet you.

Hey.

- Happy Birthday!

- Thank you.

I've been trying to get your mom

as drunk as possible.

And so you, beautiful guy,

you need to get drunk with me

so we know your secrets.

Yea!

And the last reason - no matter what

you'll always find a way

to make me feel better.

Wait, wait, wait.

To my little green bean

who makes me so proud every day.

And who made your father so proud

every single second.

Oh, Mom.

- Get in. I'm coming in this little love boat.

- No, please.

I'm going. I'm going.

This is to us... a wonderful evening.

To the future... to success.

And you shut up, you drunk floozy.

And this is also just to you. Happy Birthday!

- Cheers!

- Thank you,

- Hi, Laura. How are you doing?

- Hey! How are you?

- Good.

- That's good.

I thought we were friends.

Marina, what are you talking about?

I saw you with everyone. Your birthday dinner.

I saw it.

Marina, I'm sorry,

I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.

Can we talk about this later?

I had a present for you,

I worked on it for two weeks.

Two weeks?

You've barley known me for two weeks.

You're a f***ing liar just like everyone else!

Why did you accept my friend request?

You didn't have to do that!

- Get the f*** off me!

- Do you have any idea what it's like to be alone?

- Do not leave me alone!

- Get off me you b*tch!

Laura, you didn't do anything wrong.

That chick is just damaged.

You weren't there, Tyler.

It's not your fault.

Baby, I'm really sorry. I've got to get

back to cutting up dead people.

Okay.

She's trying to face chat me.

What do I do?

Don't take the call.

Seriously.

Fine, alright. I'll talk to you later.

Okay. Bye.

Liv?

Hmm.

Are you okay?

Go to bed.

Please. Everyone, please.

It's my unfortunate responsibility to share

with you some terrible news.

It seems that over the weekend your fellow

student, Marina Mills, committed suicide.

How'd it go?

Fine.

I just told them she was stalking me

and totally crazy.

Hey, don't beat yourself up about it.
