get a divorce.

Like a real divorce?

Yeah.

Gotcha.

Okay, well...

I'm sorry.

No. Actually, I got to run.

But, if I don't talk to you,

keep on, keep trucking, you know?

Okay, good stuff.

Well, what do you think?

Yeah, it's okay.

- Just okay?

- Yeah.

I had Mitch take a look at the lease.

He thinks it sounds like a good deal.

You had Mitch look at the lease?

When?

Last week,

I stopped by his office.

- Oh, God.

- What?

I don't know.

I'm not so sure about that guy.

Mitch? Why? He's so sweet.

Something I saw last week,

at the birthday party.

What did you see?

I didn't want to get into this, but...

I walked in on him, and he was

harassing one of the caterers.

A young girl.

- Really?

- Yeah.

He was being aggressive

and grabbing her and stuff.

It was disgusting.

I didn't want to say anything

'cause he's your friend.

[cell phone rings]

- Hello?

- Hey Nicole, it's Mitch.

Hi, Mitch.

I was thinking, if you're not too busy,

maybe I'd take you up

on that cup of coffee.

- Now's not really a good time.

- Look.

I'm really sorry about the other day.

I want the chance to explain everything.

- I don't think so.

- It's...

It's been kind of a tough day,

and it'd really mean a lot.

[sizzling]

Listen, there are a few things

I wanted to clear up,

because I get the feeling you have

an entirely distorted view of who I am.

Really? What would

ever give you that idea?

Okay, that's one pecan pie

and two coffees.

And don't worry. For the Godfather,

it's always on the house.

- Not here.

- I know who you are.

I am Avi. I'm a big supporter

of what you guys are doing.

Thank you.

You are beautiful.

No offense, though. He is the king.

You are taking coffee and pie

with a living legend.

That's very kind,

but I insist, I'll pay.

Your money, it's not good here.

- Okay.

- I look forward to pledging next semester.

Okay, now don't you think

this is going a little far?

I heard one of your pledges died.

Is that true?

Well, yes.

But he was really old.

And I feel pretty confident that

when we get the autopsy back,

it'll show that it was probably

of natural causes.

Look, to be honest, you're really not

the person I thought you were.

But it's okay. It's not a big deal.

I think that I am that person.

And I feel more like myself now

than I have in a really long time.

So, that's why you go around

harassing young women?

- Doing what?

- The caterer.

At the birthday party.

Mark told me about her.

Wait a second.

I didn't want to say anything,

but Mark is the one

who was acting inappropriate.

- You are unbelievable.

- It's true.

Hey, look who it is.

Hey, Mitch.

Darcie, hey.

Hi. I've been meaning to call you.

I just didn't want you

to worry about my dad.

He doesn't know anything,

so it's totally cool.

Her dad?

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

You know, it's nothing, really.

I mean, they actually work together.

We gotta run, 'cause we got this prom

committee thing, so I'll see you around.

Sorry.

Bye.

Prom committee thing?

That I actually can explain.

Right, I'm sure you can.

- I have to go.

- Please wait a second.

No, really. I have to go.

Hey. Chicks.

Don't worry for her.

Love, it's a motherf***er.

Dear Mitch, if you're holding this letter,

you already know.

The house has been boarded up.

The windows, the doors, everything.

We're at the Comfort Inn,

room 1 12.

I love you. Frank.

Due to these infractions,

not only will your house be repossessed,

but those of you who are students

will be expelled from the university

for your participation in

a non-sanctioned fraternity.

Please take a moment to

allow this information to sink in.

[sirens wailing]

Good. Believe me,

the actions taken by the student council

have come as a great shock to me.

But unfortunately, there's nothing

I can do about it.

Thank you for your time.

Good luck, and God bless America.

[static]

He can't do that.

This guy's playing hardball.

I got to say,

I'm kind of impressed by him.

Well, we're expelled.

My life is over and I'm gonna wind up

working at Red Lobster.

- You already work in Red Lobster.

- Yeah, but it's part time, dick.

- Guys.

- Hey, listen.

This is a serious situation.

I mean, I'm kicked out of school.

I don't know what I'm gonna do.

My mom's gonna kill me.

Come on, she's not gonna kill you.

Yes, she is. I'm the first one

to go to college in my family.

When I left, she said,

"Weensie, if you screw this up, I'll kill you."

She showed me the knife.

- [Weensie sobbing]

- [Beanie:
] Shhh.

Mitch is a lawyer, buddy.

He's gonna take care of this thing, okay?

It's gonna be all right.

He was supposed to be Luke Skywalker.

Guys, still want to be in the fraternity?

We've been waiting all semester

for you to ask us that.

Good. I need your help with something.

Off the record.

You do this, you're in.

Sir, yes, sir.

Okay. Walsh, I need you to track down

a copy of University Code 7-A,

- then fax it to this number immediately.

- Got it.

- I need to talk to you.

- Give me five minutes.

Booker, make two copies of this petition,

have it notarized,

and then messenger it over

to 34 Langley, and then I need-

Listen, Donald tells me you got these guys

working prep for the arbitration.

I told you five times, I want them working

the Sunshine Square deal.

Well, I locked

the Sunshine Square deal yesterday,

so now I have them helping

with the arbitration,

and I'd appreciate it if you let me

handle my own team,

and don't get on my ass

every time I'm trying to do something.

All right.

Wanna make sure

you're on top of it.

Well, I am.

Well, good. Carry on.

See? That's why they call him

the Godfather.

Hey.

Just take care of it.

Gentlemen, I got some good news

and I got some bad news.

Did a little research.

What Pritchard did, technically,

is illegal.

We have the right to a formal evaluation

before they can deny

our official application.

However, we're now subject to

a charter certification review

given by the board of trustees.

Damn it.

Wait. Wait, what does

that mean exactly?

According to university bylaws,

it's a thorough inspection of the fraternity,

and our contribution to the community.

Focus is on five categories:

Academics, athletics, community service,

debate, and school spirit.

Good luck to everybody.

It was nice to know you all.

And I'll see you around campus.

Actually, all of us are

being tested. Yeah.

What are you talking about?

I'm not even in school.

It's in the bylaws. Every member

of the fraternity is subject to review

in every category,

including academics.

Mitch, can you come here a second?

I don't mind popping for breakfast.

I do speakers. I don't do tests.

This is unbelievable.

What happened to, "needing brotherhood

now more than ever?" They need us.

Come on, college is

overrated anyway.

I built Speaker City from the ground up.

I can barely read. Truth.

This damn thing was your idea,

and you convinced me to do it,
