Hey, Chetty!

Pretty good effort on the

Quidditch field, huh?

It was a game throwing balls.

And you lost.

But we really rallied in the second half.

Kind of a spiritual victory.

Perhaps you'll land

a spiritual job.

You know, the

admissions committee

was split on you. You

made it by one vote.

The deciding member thought

you showed promise.

It's clear now

that he was wrong.

Sometimes the long shots

pay off the biggest.

Enjoy your pudding.

I will.

Oh! And Chetty?

Not for nothing... you can't

get me not to like you.

Let's take this new team

spirit and apply it

to this next app challenge.

We got this.

It'd help if we had

an idea for one.

You bet your sweet ass

it would, Stewie.

No. Never Stewie.

Perimeter breach

acknowledged, Stuart.

It'll feel good when

he warms up to me.

It's going to happen.

I'll break you down like a

two-by-four, bronco. Watch me.

Let's brainstorm this puppy.

Put the coffee in the pot

and let it percolate!

Let's explore what apps

have been most popular.

Go backwards to go forwards!

Oh, and we can bin it. Categorize

needle-movers by user.

Do what?

Hit it by function and user.

Two-prong.

Taking out the shield

generator on the forest moon

of Endor and fighting

with Admiral Ackbar.

It's not a trap!

Guys, I don't want to kill

the momentum or the mojo...

...but needles and categories,

they don't use apps.

People use apps.

So I have an idea. People

take pictures, right?

They have their phones

out, they see something,

take it, but then the

photo's just sitting there.

What if they take that

photo and instantaneously

put it out on the line and

share it with friends?

That's Instagram.

It already exists.

It's one of the most

popular apps in the world.

Facebook bought it for

a billion dollars.

Oh, no, no, mine's

very different.

How is yours "very different"?

In mine, you put the

photo out on the line.

"Online".

A photo exchange on the line.

That's Instagram.

Mine has social sharing on the line.

Online.

When you keep saying "on the

line", do you mean "online"?

Stuart, don't do that! He's got

a million dollar idea there!

Billion dollar idea.

Even better! Let him flow.

You can't bring me down,

I'm too positive.

Let me share something with you.

Nah.

Come. I'll explain in

a way that's visual.

He's bigger than you.

Be careful.

So you're out there,

you take a photo.

Pretend. Go ahead.

So you take that photo,

put it on the line...

Online.

Put it on Twitter, whatever you want.

That's Instagram.

That is Instagram. 100%.

I get it.

We're not dummies!

Point taken. Now let's

go with my concept.

You've taken a photo

instantaneously

or not instantaneously

and then...

...you take those and send

those out on the line.

Online.

You don't have to say sh*t!

You just say...

..."I like that photo" and share

that photo on the line...

Online.

Now everyone's

exchanging photos!

And that's why the photos being

shared on the line will be known...

...as Exchangeagram!

Holy shitballs, Billy, we

don't have time for this!

Hello, fellow interns!

Graham Hawtrey here.

I've attached a

link to our app...

...which has already been

downloaded 230 times. Booyah!

We're going to lose

another challenge.

We won't get these jobs. Our

lives are basically ruined.

Hold on. Your life

isn't ruined.

You guys are 21. You have your

whole life in front of you.

Do you know what it's

like to be 21 now?

A quarter of the kids coming

out of college can't get jobs.

That's correct. Mother says

you can work hard and...

...go to the right

school but nothing is

guaranteed anymore.

That's life.

These guys are right.

The whole American

Dream thing you guys

grew up on, that's all it is now...

a dream.

You're too young to

be this cynical!

You really see the

world this way?

That's not how we see it. It's

just the way things are now.

That's it. Everybody up.

Breath-of-fresh-air time.

We have work to do.

No, no, no, no, no.

Uh-uh. Uh-uh.

We're taking it to the street.

We'll get our heads right...

...so we can work as a team.

What about the app? This

is bigger than an app.

And we have something

pretty terrific

in our back pocket

with Exchangeagram.

Just let it marinate.

Yeah, that's a winner.

Time to light it up forever

and never go to sleep.

Can we talk about this

onlineon the line thing?

We're gonna follow the morons.

...and she says "Wait a

minute, that's not a duck!"

My friend here says there's a dance

club down the street that's great.

You're shitting me.

Come on, let's hit it!

Are you sure he

said "dance club"?

I was rocking Mandarin,

he was rocking Cantonese.

Something clearly got confused.

But I say, happy accident.

Show you to your table?

Great big world out

there, my friend,

just three inches

up, I beg you.

Any questions?

Oh! Ooh!

Holy sh*t, that's deep.

I think that's our cue.

Here we go.

Come on!

This is good. It's totally cool.

It's great. Ahem!

You okay, firecracker?

What? Yeah! Totally!

This is my jam.

This here is my sh*t.

I know, but if you

don't want to be here,

we'll grab the guys by their little

boners and go back on the bus.

No, no, don't do that.

Don't. It's just...

...I've only read about

this stuff, okay?

Craigslist casual encounters.

"Twilight" fan fiction. Hentai.

What's Hentai?

Japanese comic books where

women get penetrated

by octopus tentacles.

Oh! Ah!

Look, it's just...

...I have imagined everything.

It's just...

...I've never done anything.

Your secret's safe with us.

And for what it's worth, your

imagination is so wild...

...reality will be a

breeze, if not a letdown.

Thanks. Show you to

your table, cutie?

Let's go!

About time this

group had a night.

Let the good times roll!

Here you go.

Bottoms up, Yo-Yo.

Oh, I can't.

Why? You're 21, right?

Yeah, but my morn says

alcohol numbs the brain.

I'm not saying a shot of

Tequila is the first step

on the journey to

self-respect...

...but maybe it's a step in

the right direction. Maybe?

Your call.

One shot.

Bang it, Yo!

To the night you'll

never remember!

Yeah!

He's getting down!

Look what we got cooking here.

Exchangeagram moment, b*tches!

Ready for your first lap dance?

Are you kidding?

Yo-Yo stays ready

so he doesn't have

to get ready.

This is Tapioca. She's studying

to be a dental assistant.

Enjoy!

It happens all the time.

Some would say it's the point.

It's all good.

Might want to double up on

the underwear next time.

I got to tell you, the

reboot time is impressive.

Trifecta.

Cheers, bud.

Cheers, cheers.

No way!

Hi.

Is that your dance

teacher from Google?

Go talk to her.

Yeah, fo shizzle, I'll

just go up and I'm like...

..."Want to join the

Lyle High Club?"

Lyle, sometimes the most radical

move is to just be yourself.

And I really like

the real Lyle.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Go on, you're burning daylight!

Let's do this.

Hi.

Hi. Hi.

Hi. Hi.

Hi.

You were really good up there.
