Those include

the roar's resonance,

the duration of the roar,

and the...

Whoops. Sorry.

I heard someone say "roar,"

so I just kind of went for it.

Oh, excuse me, sorry.

I didn't mean to scare you there.

Hey, how you doing?

Very impressive, Mister...

Sullivan.

Jimmy Sullivan.

Sullivan.

Like Bill Sullivan, the Scarer?

Yeah. He's my dad.

He's a Sullivan!

I should have known.

I expect big things from you.

Well, you won't

be disappointed.

Uh... I'm sorry.

Should I keep going?

No, no.

Mr. Sullivan's covered it.

Huh.

Everyone take out

your Scaring textbooks

and open them to chapter one.

Hey, bub.

Can I borrow a pencil?

I forgot all my stuff.

Ah! All right. Yes.

There we go. That will get it.

Mmm... Yeah.

Come on, Mike.

It's a fraternity

and sorority party.

We have to go!

If we flunk that Scaring final,

we are done.

I'm not taking any chances.

You've got

the whole semester to study,

but this might

be our only chance

to get in good

with the cool kids.

That's why I made these cupcakes.

Oops.

That could

have been embarrassing.

When I'm a Scarer,

life will be a nonstop party.

Stay out of trouble, wild man.

Wild man.

What the...

Archie!

Boo!

Hey! What are you...

Wait... You're shushing me?

Hey! Hey! You can't...

- Where did he go?

- He's dead meat.

That guy's in big trouble.

Yeah, he is.

Hey, guys!

Over here!

Fear Tech dummies.

Oh, oh!

Sorry about that, buddy.

Why are you in my room?

Your room? This is my...

This is not my room.

Archie! Come here, boy.

Archie?

Archie the Scare Pig.

He's Fear Tech's mascot.

Why is it here?

I stole it. Going to

take it to the RORs.

The what?

Roar Omega Roar.

The top fraternity on campus.

They only accept

the highly elite.

Okay, I'll lift the bed,

you grab the pig.

Ready? One, two, three.

What? No, no... Oh! What...

That's it.

Don't let go.

Careful. He's a biter.

- Whoa! Whoa, hey...

- Whoa!

I got him!

Uh-oh! Whoa!

That was awesome!

What am I doing?

James P. Sullivan.

Mike Wazowski.

Listen,

it was quite delightful meeting you

and whatever that is,

but if you don't mind,

I have to study my Scaring.

You don't need

to study Scaring.

You just do it.

Really? I think there's a

little more to it than that.

But, hey, thanks

for stopping by.

Let go of that!

My hat!

My pig!

Ooh!

Hey! Come here!

Hey!

Catch it!

Come back here!

Ooh! Yeah!

Ride it to frat row!

Hey!

Whoa... Ow!

Wow!

Whoa!

Go, go, go!

Hey...

Come on! Hey!

Ooh!

Cupcake?

Whoa...

Ooh!

Got it!

Fear Tech's mascot!

MU rules!

M-U! M-U! M-U!

Did you see him catch that pig?

You are Jaws Theta Chi

material, freshman.

Oh, thanks.

I don't know...

No, no, no.

He's an Omega Howl guy.

Back off.

We saw him first.

No way. We did!

I'll take it

from here, gentlemen.

Johnny Worthington,

president of Roar Omega Roar.

What's your name, big blue?

Jimmy Sullivan.

Friends call me Sulley.

This guy's a Sullivan?

Like the famous Sullivan?

I can't believe it!

That is crazy!

Chet, calm down.

I'm sorry.

Sulley, any freshman with the guts

to pull off a stunt like that

has got "Future Scarer"

written all over him.

Hey, did you see me ride the pig?

That took guts.

Slow down, squirt.

This party is for Scare students only.

Oh, sorry, killer,

but you might want to hang out

with someone

a little more your speed.

Uh... They look fun!

Oh, hey there. Want

to join Oozma Kappa?

We have cake.

Go crazy.

Is that a joke?

Sulley, talk to your friend.

Oh, he's not really

my friend, but sure.

You heard him.

This is a party for Scare students.

I am a Scare student.

I mean for Scare

students who actually,

you know, have a chance.

Aw, snap!

My chances are

just as good as yours.

You're not even in the

same league with me.

Just wait, hotshot.

I'm going to scare circles

around you this year.

Oh, okay.

I'd like to see that.

Oh, don't worry. You will.

Ready position.

Common crouch.

I want to see matted fur and yellow teeth.

Basic snarl.

Show me some slobber.

Drool is a tool,

kids. Use it.

Now here is a monster

who looks like a Scarer.

You want a hope of passing

this class, you better eat,

breathe, and sleep Scaring.

Yeah!

Give me another one.

Fear of spiders.

Arachnophobia.

Fear of thunder.

Keraunophobia.

Fear of chopsticks!

Consecotaleophobia.

What is this, kindergarten?

Give me a hard one.

Go Monsters U!

You know what to do!

The answer is C, fangs.

Well done, Mr. Wazowski.

A bowl of spiders!

Correct!

A clown running in the dark!

Right again.

Warts, boils, and moles,

in that order.

Outstanding!

Ah! Whoa!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Ah!

Ogre slump.

Zombie snarl.

Dominant silverback gorilla.

That is some remarkable

improvement, Michael.

One frightening face does not

a Scarer make, Mr. Sullivan.

A Tauntaun grimace

with extra slobber.

You got it!

That's what I'm saying.

I am going to wipe the floor

with that little know-it-all.

Yes, you are, big blue.

Hey, wait.

What are you guys...

It's just a precaution.

RORs are the best Scarers

on campus, Sullivan.

Can't have a member getting

shown up by a beach ball.

Whoo-hoo!

I am on a roll.

I'm going to destroy that guy.

Well, then you'll get

this back right away.

It's time to start delivering

on that Sullivan name.

Today's final will judge your

ability to assess a child's fear

and perform the appropriate

Scare in the Scare Simulator.

The Child Sensitivity

Level will be raised

from Bed-wetter

to Heavy Sleeper,

so give it

everything you've got.

Dean Hardscrabble is

with us this morning

to see who will be moving on

in the Scaring program

and who will not.

Let's get started.

I am a five-year-old girl afraid

of spiders and Santa Claus.

Which Scare do you use?

Uh...

That's a Seasonal

Creep and Crawl.

Demonstrate.

Results will be posted

outside my office. Next.

Focus.

Johnson, Crackle and Howl.

Yes!

Hey. Do you mind?

Don't mind at all.

Come on, Mike.

Let's just move.

Stay out of my way.

Unlike you, I had to work hard

to get into the Scare program.

That's because

you don't belong here.

That's what I thought.

Whoa! Whoa...

I'm so sorry.

It was an accident.

What? This?

My one souvenir from

a lifetime of Scaring?

Accidents happen, don't they.

The important thing

is no one got hurt.

You're taking

this remarkably well.

Now, let's continue the exams.

Mr. Wazowski,

I'm a five-year-old girl

on a farm in Kansas

afraid of lightning.

Which Scare do you use?

Shouldn't I go up on the...

Which Scare do you use?

That is a Shadow Approach

with a Crackle Holler.

Demonstrate.

Stop. Thank you.

But I didn't get to...

I've seen enough.

I'm a seven-year-old boy...

I wasn't finished.

I don't need to know

any of that stuff to scare.

That "stuff"

would've informed you

that this particular child

is afraid of snakes.

So a roar wouldn't make him scream,

it would make him cry,

alerting his parents,

exposing the monster world,
