GRAVE:

Hi. Can I have some

mashed potatoes, please?

No protein?

No thanks. No meat.

What?

What's wrong?

Spit it out.

Sh*t.

-Did you bite in it?

-No.

-Sure?

-Look. No.

This sh*t really gets me.

Mom, it's fine.

Forget it.

Seriously?

And if you were allergic?

You want mine?

No, thanks.

My daughter had meat.

It's unacceptable.

We're vegetarians.

Wow, it looks shabbier.

Don't you think?

Is that it?

No, that's the med faculty.

Hospital on the left, morgue next to it.

And the grocery store, look.

I'm already lost.

-You have you phone?

-Yeah.

Call your sister.

She may answer for you.

I'm going.

She won't come.

Are you nuts?

We're not leaving Juju on her own!

She said she'd pick her up.

Wait a bit, she may come.

So, brainiac,

show'em what you can do.

OK? See you.

I love you, baby.

-Call me.

-Yeah.

Love you too, Mommy.

What's that sh*t music?

Beat's me. Who are you?

Roommate.

I got here late. Up!

You're not a girl!

Nope.

I asked for a girl.

They gave you a fag,

same deal for them.

Here, take this.

What's going on?

What's this?

A ski pole.

That's my sh*t!

Hey!

Where are you going?

Where?

Bed, man!

Bed? Where?

Your bed's downstairs, friend.

Hey! Hey!

Check it.

This one wants out already!

You got in

to please your parents, right?

I thought it was over.

You'll know if it's over, big guy.

Get back in line.

Get in line.

And now, where are we headed?

Where?

-To freedom!

-F*** off.

F***ers!

Speed it up, rookies!

A**holes.

Get up! Move your asses!

Hurry, the boss is waiting.

-Move it!

-Come on, guys!

Faster, rookies!

Move down!

Move your asses!

You! You stay put.

Go, go, move it.

Move it.

Rookies, move it!

Get moving, go, go!

Hey, it's just a game.

What do you think could happen?

I'm Adrien.

Justine.

Slut it up, girls.

You're the slut.

Alex!

Alex!

I'm so wasted.

Where were you?

Mom and Dad will kill you.

It's so cool you're here.

You'll love it.

The first year is the best.

And we'll see each other

all the time, like at home.

Is my thong out of my shorts?

You're fine.

Mom got to you, I see.

Was it hell without me?

What do you mean?

F***.

I need some fresh air.

Quicky!

Long time no see!

-Where's the light?

-Don't. We're not allowed in here.

Where are we?

Alex?

Where do I go now?

F***, bumped my eye!

Where are you?

Stop it!

Look.

Some heads are cut off.

Traitors.

They refused initiation.

Here it is, come look.

Who's that?

No way.

They wouldn't do that kind of thing.

It's tradition.

You will too, right.

Really?

Don't be a wimp.

Even Mom looks happy.

Poor Dad, it's all over him.

You can't see his face.

Are you cold?

I'm going back to dance.

Watch Quicky?

I'm going to bed, I'm dead.

No way!

-Why?

-Rookies don't go to bed before us.

Shh, my roommate's sleeping.

Come with me.

Wait.

Ketamine.

Let's try it.

Move it up.

OK. Take the brace.

a student for the strut,

a cushion for the head.

Vets, they march ahead

Their d*cks up proud in the air

Cuz a vet will f*** you anywhere

They are men - yes sir!

With giant balls, for her

They like a laugh, they like a drink,

they like to screw and we do too!

Oh yes they do, and we do too

Conscripts!

You have made it to our great school.

We applaud you.

Your profs will make you

the best vets out there.

Your elders will make you family.

But first you must learn.

Learn to be a team,

to obey, to be good rookies.

From now on, you will call your elders

either 'elders' or 'great ones'.

Repeat after me:
Elders.

-Elders.

-Hey! Elders.

Elders.

Good. And great ones.

Great ones.

What a nice bunch this year.

Where was I?

They'll help you during your rush week,

which will end when you hear this:

For real?

When you hear Yeah.

Then and only then

are you no longer rookies.

In the meantime, we're counting on you.

Make us proud.

We'll show you the way.

Vets!

Longest wait ever for an open bar.

What is it?

Wait your turn.

Is it meat?

Rabbit kidney.

Better not to know.

I'm a vegetarian, I can't eat that.

Ask my sister,

our family's veggie.

-Who's your sister?

-Alexia.

No sh*t.

-Alex? Come here a sec.

-Huh?

-You vegetarian?

-No. Why?

She your sister?

Call my parents if you don't trust me.

Are you serious?

It's nothing. Everybody does it.

So eat hers, then.

I ate mine last year.

That's why I'm here now.

Go on, eat it.

See? Easy.

Open up.

You'll be happy you did it.

Don't start the year by chickening out.

They're watching.

Maybe not all animals,

but monkeys.

It comes from them.

Do you think a monkey can get AIDS today?

If you treat a monkey

in a zoo or African reserve,

are you as careful as a doctor

doing normal surgery?

No clue.

Why are you thinking about this sh*t?

Take a guy who wants to f*** a monkey.

The theory is AIDS started that way.

If a guy wants to f*** a monkey today,

should he use a condom?

I'm eating, man!

Don't talk about f***ing monkeys.

Did wolves raise you?

What do I care?

Cuz I f*** monkeys or have AIDS?

What the f***.

OK, sorry.

It was a valid question.

They only ate the monkey.

The rest was made up.

Who'd be so sick

he'd rape an animal?

Lots of people.

Legally, I'm not sure

"monkey rape" exists.

Sure it does.

Animals have rights.

The monkey won't turn

anorexic and see a therapist.

It's not the same.

Monkeys are self-aware.

They see themselves,

in a mirror, right?

I bet a raped monkey suffers like a woman.

So a raped woman,

raped monkey,

same thing.

Yeah.

What I'm saying isn't so crazy.

Why are we at vet school?

Unbelievable.

It's easy, really.

I expected no less from you.

Let's see if your reputation is earned.

Oh.

One mistake already.

Off to a bad start.

May I?

No, too late.

There.

-Hey. Are you OK?

-Yeah. Stay out.

Oh, that is bad.

Any allergies?

I don't think so.

OK.

Will I get it on my face?

No, no. It won't last long.

It's already peeling.

-Any nausea?

-Yeah.

Since when?

At the same time.

OK. Last period?

I'm not sure.

A week or two?

OK. Are you on the pill?

No.

Do you use condoms?

I've never...

Right.

-OK.

-Ouch.

And this is your rush week?

OK, I think

it's food poisoning

and you're having a reaction.

Drink lots of liquids.

Water, that is.

Avoid solids.

Fast a whole day, even.

I'll get you a cream.

I am hungry though.

My stomach always feels empty.

Yeah.

What'd they give you?

Raw rabbit kidneys.

Someone tells you to eat

raw rabbit kidney, and you do?

-I said no.

-Did they force you?

No.

OK. Keep it.

-Use it three times a day.

-Thanks.

I used to work at the hospital here.

One day, they sent a girl

your age for blood tests.

She was round.

Fat, actually.

A really nice girl, really sweet.

Some freak out over needles,

but not her.

She had a ton of tests to do.

So it goes well.

She gets dressed and bursts into tears.

I ask what's wrong and she says

I'm the first person to not

mention her weight.

Why would I?

The test was totally unrelated.
