want you to know this,

but she made sure that there was

no peanut products in the entire house,

and her favorite meal is

a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Hi, you've reached

the Willows' residence.

Leave a message.

Hey, Mom, it's me.

I know you're at work.

I just wanted to leave

a message and say hi.

I'm fine, everything's

going really well.

All right, I love you.

I'll call you later. Bye.

Hi. Cool box. What's in it?

A memento.

I'd rather not say just yet,

if that's okay.

Hey... Thanks for jumping in down there.

I was really humiliated.

You know,

I... I think they get off on that.

Hey... being a virgin is not

an easy thing to admit these days.

Can you keep a secret?

No secrets, remember?

I'm not a virgin.

You lied?

Jane, they were not kidding about

making you walk naked across campus,

and they can still kick you out.

I know, and I really do want to get in.

I was never a part of

anything in high school.

My mom and dad died in a car accident

when I was eight,

I was raised by my Aunt,

and she was always drunk.

That's awful.

Do you think people

deserve a second chance

if they're really sorry for something?

I guess so.

The only way I could get boys to

like me was to sleep with them.

It... It pretty much got around

my school that I was...

but I'm not that person anymore.

As far as I'm concerned,

she never existed.

So if you think about it,

I wasn't lying.

Just don't say anything, okay?

I won't.

I'm glad we're roommates, Sam.

Me too.

Sorry. Is this bugging you?

It's freezing in here.

Is the heater on?

Yeah, it is now.

Somebody must have turned it off.

Old house.

This is one of our new pledges.

Samantha Willows.

We call her Weeping Willows.

You're excused.

Wait!

Go.

She has the metabolism of

a 10-year-old. We all hate her.

Hey, thin is in. I got lucky.

Hey, Sam!

Look, somebody's calling your name.

Sam? Sam, you okay?

Better get over there.

Uh, where's your invite?

That's my girlfriend.

Sam, you... what, are you mad at me?

Hey, I haven't

mastered mind reading yet,

although I think I'm pretty close.

Never mind.

Just, uh, tell them to let me in?

Oh, I see... I wasn't invited.

I'm not a frat boy. That's great, Sam.

Man, look, she's pledging.

I know. Like I told the hard of

hearing, I'm her boyfriend.

No, you don't get it.

This is part of her pledge.

She can't talk to anyone,

or she gets kicked out.

Are you serious?

Yeah.

Oh, that is so lame.

Hey, Sam! Hey! Sam! Sam!

Dude, what did I just say?

Hands off me, brute.

Fine, Sam! Have fun.

I'll be, uh... by myself... if you care.

See you later.

Hey... hi. Um, I'm Spencer Bennett.

You're Sam, right?

Right, sorry. Look,

I'm not trying to mess with you...

I just... I want to make sure that

the only reason

you're not looking at me

is because you're pledging.

They have chopped peanuts in them.

I figured you would have thought

I was trying to trip you up

if I yelled at you. Sorry.

Guess you owe me one, and trust me,

somebody's getting fired.

You guys...

Oh, you do realize

you just got yourself expelled.

We don't care who your sister is-

Shut up! Something awful's happened.

I just got off the phone with

my sister. Nikki Evans died.

What?

She killed herself.

You better not be screwing with us...

I'm not! They found her in her car,

in the garage with the engine running.

When?

Day before yesterday.

Oh, my God...

It's so weird.

They were just talking about her.

Did you think Leslie and

Rachel's reaction was strange?

I don't know.

They seemed pretty upset to me.

I know. It wasn't that.

It was just...

Never mind. Do you want

anything from the kitchen?

No, I'm good.

She didn't say anything

about being depressed.

Why would she all of

a sudden kill herself?

What do you mean?

...exactly one year ago, Hell Week.

I don't think that's coincidence,

do you?

No, she's right.

She just couldn't handle it.

Don't you guys think about Jena?

Frankly, I don't.

I've put it out of my mind,

and so should you.

Oh, so I can end up like Nikki

when it's festered long enough-

Shh! Keep it down.

I think they're hiding something.

What do you mean?

When I went down for water,

I heard them talking. Who's Jena?

Jena?

I think something happened here

a year ago.

Maybe Jena Thorne.

Who is she?

She was a pledge here last year.

I overheard some of the girls talking.

Couldn't hack pledge week.

Just took off, but she never went home.

There was a whole investigation,

but nobody got into any trouble.

What happened to her?

I don't know. She just dropped out.

Sorry.

Is the light bothering you?

No...

Couldn't sleep? Nightmare?

What idiot turned the heat off again?

Nobody. It's set to 80.

That's great.

Where's the heater?

In the basement.

My dad was an electrician.

I'll take a look.

Really? My dad owned

a screwdriver and pliers.

We'll take care of it.

Go back to bed.

Power's out.

The lights are on upstairs.

We must have blown a fuse.

What?

What did you do?

Nothing. It just turned on by itself.

Are you allowed to speak to me?

Yes.

I'm sorry about last night.

I acted like an idiot.

This is a big thing for me, Oliver.

It's one of the most

prestigious sororities in the country,

and I really like it.

I know, I know.

It's just that everything's

changed since we got here.

Shouldn't that be a good thing?

Statistically, 92% of

all high school relationships

end in the first year of college.

I thought we

were going to get married.

Oliver, I'm 18.

I don't want to get married to

anyone right now.

I mean, my life is just starting.

I want to make new friends,

and go out and try new things,

figure out who I am, and I don't want to

feel like I have to apologize for that.

Is it sex?

Because, I mean, we can have sex.

It's not sex.

No, it's Darwinism. Right?

Look at you. Look at me.

The strong have to mate with the strong

to ensure the survival of the species,

and I'd be putting us all at risk.

Don't say that. Any girl

would be lucky to have you.

I don't want any girl.

Actually, I saw this coming

a long time ago, Sam.

ESP. Don't knock the paranormal.

The kiss of death.

I just need a little space, okay?

That's a euphemism, and you know it.

Okay?

You really do believe in

that stuff, huh?

ESP, the paranormal?

How can you not?

The evidence is all around us, Sam.

You just have to be open to it.

I'll see you.

Delta Phi Theta?

Yeah.

Do you know what they did to her?

Jena Thorne. I'm her boyfriend.

I don't know her.

Something happened to her.

One of their rituals. Hazing.

Did you know that

Jena was claustrophobic?

I want to know what they did,

only no one in your sorority talks,

do they?

I'm Collin.

I asked her to marry me two days

before, and she said yes.

And then she just leaves

in the middle of the night?

Gone. Nobody knows where.

She doesn't even say goodbye.

Does that make sense?

They've got money

and connected families.

I mean, who would suspect
