Okay, so what's your
actual favorite film?

You're fucking with me.
"I go both ways."
It's the best line in the movie.

Awesome.
Benny Scanlon,

the Flesh & Gold society.
We are watching.
Oh, my God.
Michael, I can't believe
it's been a year since you've been gone.
Where'd you go? I miss you so
Michael,
I know you'd be proud
of the man I've become
since you left us.
Rest easy, stud!
Michael,
big bro
Michael! You are dead.
Hey.
- Hi. I'm so glad you're here.
- What's going on?
Anything exciting happen today?
Um, no, nothing exciting.
- Didn't get anything?
- No.
So nothing nothing happening
today? No surprises, or
- No.
- Nothing out of the ordinary?
- Just Okay.
- Not No.
Mikey, man! I stopped
gambling online! John 16:22.
Um, no. Nothing exciting.
Oh. Okay.
Um, I was gonna go to the dining hall
before the tailgate, if you wanna join.
I'm not really hungry.
It's Chicken Tender Saturday.
We-We've never missed one.
And is that good or so sad?
Both. Um, we should go.
Continue the streak.
I can't. Um, I just
have a lot of stuff.
Hang later?
Yeah. Def.
Enjoy.
Benny. What,
no Carmen today?
Um, no, not today.
Well, you tell her to watch it.
I've been known to break
up a power couple or two.
Oh.
- Ciao.
- Thanks.
Uh-oh. No girlfriend today?
Oh. Not today.
Fuck 'em all.
Is he eating alone?
Wait.
That's so embarrassing.
Did she dump him?
I hear
he couldn't get hard.
He eats like a girl.
I never noticed until just now.
No Carmen.
Maybe I got you all wrong.
Fuck 'em all.
Now that he's alone,
- doesn't he look kind of ga
- Benny.
Miles. Um, hey.
Uh, do you mind if I sit down?
Uh, cool. Yeah. Yeah.
Oh. You got a letter?
Oh, shit. You got one?
I just thought that they asked me
because my stepbrother was in it,
so it's like a legacy thing.
- Oh.
- Was your sister in it?
No. I feel like she would have made
sure I knew if she was.
Actually, the ID that you had. That
guy's, like, one of the heads of it.
- Peter?
- Yeah. Him.
- Oh.
- Did Carmen get one?
No. No, she didn't.
Guess you're just kind
of stuck with me then.
Get a room, queens.
- Oh. Um, I have to go. But, um, yeah.
- Oh. Uh
Well, are you gonna be at the Black
and Yellow tailgate thing today?
Yeah. Oh, my Yeah. Yeah.
Um, I'll see you there.
See ya, Benny.
Imagine
eating alone.
So embarrassing.
Oh, shit. There he is.
You like the little pressie you
got under your door this morning?
Yeah. I'm so excited.
You are so lucky
you're my brother.
Oh, you're in it too?
She isn't. But she is with
the future Keeper, so
The future what?
Keeper.
It's like president
of Flesh & Gold.
Former Keeper's coming to town
for the Black and Yellow tailgate.
We tap freshmen to join, and then
a new Keeper is chosen to run rush.
That's me after today,
baby.
Well, if you're the new Keeper,
then can you just let me join?
Babe, don't make me the bad guy.
You know you can only
join freshman year.
And back then, you were still hanging with
Mimi and the radio freaks, weren't you?
But not anymore.
I finished your paper.
That's my girl.
Okay. Uh, would it be possible
to get Carmen a letter?
Oh, so you already got a
letter you didn't earn,
- and now you want a plus-one?
- Yeah.
We already chose the
standout freshmen on campus.
So the tailgate's kinda the last
chance to impress F&G and get a letter.
Great. So if someone stands out at
the tailgate, they get a letter?
- Yeah, that's what I just said.
- That's what he just said.
- Okay.
- But it's late in the game.
So your girl, she's really
gonna have to fucking tear.
Cool. Thanks, Pete.
Hey. Where's my hug?
Oh. Um
- Come on.
- Yeah, Pete. Oh Oh. Yeah.
Big day. Big day.
Ooh. He's cute.
That's my brother.
Sucks that he's dead. Boo.
I don't He shouldn't be dead.
Yeah.
Those posts are doing really
well though. Should I post one?
Do you want me to, as a friend?
'Cause I will. I didn't know him.
- I like your outfits.
- Thank you.
I really want to get photographed
today by Candid Campus Couture.
- By who?
- Campus Couture.
Did you grow up under a rock? Like
you really crack me up.
Okay. Campus Couture.
So today at the tailgate, there's going
to be a photographer for the school paper,
snapping pics of all
the best outfits.
I have to be one or
I'm gonna kill myself.
No. Not like your brother. You're
not gonna lose anyone else.
No, he didn't, um Why?
It's, like, an honor.
Also, like, I don't know.
When I was in high school, my fucking
mom was transferred to so many bases
that I moved four times.
I didn't get the chance to
win, like, Best Dressed,
which, like, is not
a big deal at all.
Obviously, I don't care
about high school awards.
Like, the girl who did win, Jessica,
she didn't move once K through 12.
So she has 12 years to
create a fashion journey.
I'm supposed to catch up in a semester
and a half? Like, it's mission impossible.
She would come in with a cute outfit
and I'd be like, "Cute dress, Jessica."
And then she'd turn
around, turtle backpack.
Hey, girl. What story
are you trying to tell?
Anyways. I'm just, like, very
excited for, like, a fresh start
so, like, I can make
the impact I need to.
Make impact. Yeah. Yeah, okay.
Also, if you're photographed
for Candid Campus Couture,
oftentimes you're short-listed
for the fall fashion editorial.
Well, I think whichever one
of these you pick, you're
Bitch, I'm gonna
wear all these today.
I think I should start with the red one.
But then also I want to showstop later.
I feel like when people are wasted,
I wanna really wake 'em up, you know?
- Hey. Okay, tailgate.
- But, like, I don't know
We're leaving in
five. We ready to go?
I actually needed
you for something.
Absolutely. After the
tailgate.
- I don't know if I'm up for that today.
- We have to go!
- Oh.
- I'm so Sorry. Um
Um, can I just wear this?
- Um
- I think she's joking.
Oh, okay.
Are you still mad that I can't
get you into Flesh & Gold?
Yeah. It's fine. I get it.
Good. Because you are the
future Keeper's girlfriend,
so it's kinda like you're in it.
Totally.
And aren't you so happy
you don't have to hang out
with the Mimis of the world
anymore?
Oops. Sorry.
- You should be careful.
- Yeah.
All right. I'm gonna go
hang out with the F&G alum.
And then I'll see
you at the tailgate?
- Yeah. Perfect.
- Awesome.
Sorry, girl! Just
saw this! Meet at tailgate?
OMG, a text
back! LOL, JK.
Ha ha!
Tailgate, yeah!
It's, uh, my last
Black and Yellow day,
so I kinda want it just to be,
like, the best day of my life.
- You know what I mean?
- I want that too.
Great. See you there!
Awesome. Thanks for
understanding, babe.
Of course.
Cool. So, uh, what are
you gonna get up to?
I'm just gonna go get a blowout,
and then I'll meet you there.
Cool. I don't know what that is.

Hey, so, um, I
was gonna ask you.
How's, uh How's it looking
at Hawksworth Financial?
Fucking
great. We're crushing it.
Although I've
been meaning to tell you this.
It's not
looking so good on your end.
What-What do
What do you mean?
Well, uh, you don't
really have the grades
or the
family in the building.
I know you, right?
And this is family.
- Fuck, yeah. Fuck, yeah.
- This is family.
Here. But there, I mean, we're
talking, like, real family.
Like, islands and Big Pharma
lawsuits kinda shit. You get it.
Yeah, yeah. I, uh
Sure, yeah. But I'm
still Keeper, right?
Keeper? For you?
Keepers are, like
They come from something, they-they
go on to something, right?
Best of the best, crème
de la crème, like
You're a mid-level analyst
at Hawksworth Financial,
not the fucking
president, Charlie.
And you're a college senior
from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,
with no prospects, and you can't
even grow a full fucking beard.
Guess no matter how much we try to
pretend to be something that we are not,
does not mean we are
that thing, right?
Fuck, man. I'm sorry.
I'm a little coked out.
All right. Listen, hey.
Take that, erase it.
Remember this. You ready?
You ready? Enjoy the day.
- Mimi.
- Graceface!
- Love the new piercing.
- Got it my last day abroad.
God, it felt so good to be
in a totally foreign place.
You would have loved Montreal.
And, oh, my God,
huge Twihard culture.
You're still into
Twilight, right?
It's been a while.
For sure.
Oh, and the music scene
out there is so good.
I found so many new
artists for the show.
And there are so many
female producers out there.
It's kind of a revolution.
It's feral, Grace.
Oh.
Do you want to come back and
do the radio show sometime?
I can't.
Just really, you know, busy and stuff,
so I-I don't think I would have time.
Well, Peter's ego is a full-time job,
but the benefits are good.
Well, I have the 2:00 to 4:00 a.m.
spot every other Tuesday, if you're up.
There is always a seat
with your name on it.
Fuck, can we get fries?
I haven't had them without
poutine in, like, seven months.
Okay.
What? Oh. Hailee Marie Matthews.
Also known as "Hmm."
Zara. Queen collection.
How much longer do
you want to stay?
Um
Oh. Hey, broskis.
What's up, you guys?
Um, hey. We were just about to
play King's Cup. Are you guys down?
- Uh
- Yes! Oh, my God, so down.
That game is sick.
Why drink when you can
drink competitively?
Carmen always says that.
- I do?
- Yeah. That's Carmen.
So you obviously
know the rules then?
Obviously.
Um, but maybe just
a refresher for everybody.
Uh, yeah. Uh, the
goal is to just drink.
So, if you pull an
ace, it's a waterfall.
You start drinking at the same
time as the person to your left.
Two is you, so you don't drink, but you
give two drinks to, like, another person.
Three is me, so I would drink.
Four is four whore, so four
Every fourth person takes
So six is dicks.
Seven is heaven, so
you point to the sky.
Eight is mate. This one also
is kind of, like, confusing.
So, there's there's five
kings if you play with the joker.
'Cause the joker kind
of acts as, like
Hey, king. Pissed I never got
to meet you IRL. Have fun up there!
so each person Whoever
starts has to start with vroom.
- So vroom is
- I'm so sorry. I wasn't listening.
Um, can you explain
the game again?
So disrespectful.
We'll be right back.
What are you doing?
What am I doing?
What-What are you doing?
You let that guy monologue at my
human face for like ten minutes.
You're acting insane.
I got a letter from this
secret club on campus, okay?
And I really want you to get one too so
we can keep hanging out all the time.
And I wasn't trying to
freak you out today,
but this tailgate is the last
chance for them to notice you.
And they have to
notice you, because
I don't think I can do
this without you, okay?
I need you, Carmen. So bad.
Let's do this.
Okay.
Well, we can't do that. That
was like World of Warcraft.
Horrible, horrible.
Um, can you do that?
You know my brother was second
best in Jersey at Edward 40 Hands?
Who was the first?
Let's fucking go.
Oh, no. I know that's not Mimi.
Whoa. Nice bullring. So cute.
Aw, thanks, Pete,
'cause my septum piercing is really
meant to stimulate the male gaze.
Baby, why are you so drunk?
Why the fuck do you
still hang out with her?
- I thought we talked about this.
- Let's go home, okay?
No, I'm not fucking
going anywhere.
- You don't have to babysit him.
- Mimi, she's not a dyke. Don't bother.
I'm sorry.
I should probably go help him.
I miss you, Grace.
Fuck, don't you miss you?
Well, poutine's
ruined American fries for me.
Maybe you can't go back home.
Hey, girlie. Quick shot
for Candid Campus Couture?
- Not too candid.
- Slay.
Are you fucking ready for the
legendary fucking Edward 40 Hands?

Grace, it's not
It's not okay.
Hawksworth said no.
What do you mean?
Hawksworth Financial
said fucking no.
I'm from fucking
Pittsburgh with no prospects,
- and you're gonna leave me too.
- I'm not. I'm right here.
Oh, my God. So sor I
can't look at your hands.
I am so, so sorry I made
you do all that shit.
No, I'm the dumb
one for clapping.
Hey, are you coming with her?
Move! Move out of the way!
Okay, I'm her
roomie. She needs me.
Come on, let's go. It's
an emergency. Hello?
Oh, my God. Boys? Thank you.
Got it, got it. Okay. I
got it, got it. Come on.
I don't know what you
fucking did to her,
but her hands never looked
like this before you!
Carmen, I'm sorry.
Looks like it's time for
those pot brownies, my dude.
Come on.
There we go.
Fuck, this is so fucking Grey's.
Look at me, okay?
Don't even worry, baby girl.
'Cause I'm not going
anywhere. I'm right here.
And you will not
die on my watch!
Drive! What is this, a
kid neighborhood, okay?
It's my friend's life at stake.
- You're gonna be okay.
- I know. Your outfit's super cute.
Oh, God. Thank you.
At least you noticed.
There's still plenty of time for
you to be in Campus Fashionista.
God, you're an idiot. It's
Candid Campus Couture.
Sorry.
I was walking around all day and they
didn't even take one picture though,
and I was, like,
posing like crazy.
Like, I was killing it. But
honestly, they can eat my ass.
I could eat your ass.
Only if you eat my friend's too.
Okay, now we need a new
word. We need a new word.
Penis. And now we need a
feeling. Penis with what?
- Death.
- Death? Okay. Let's do death.
That's so fucking good.
I've got a penis before
you kick the old bucket.
Did you make that up
on the spot?
Miles. How are you?
Yeah, man. I'm-I'm good.
I've actually been
looking for you all day.
You have?
Are we finally gonna hang out or
should we just keep talking about it?
Don't worry. We can do both.
I feel like a strong friendship
is built upon two people saying,
"We should chill soon," but
then they never actually do.
He was like a doctor.
He was saying, like
"Hello, doctor.
You got any penis for me?"
Looks like Chris gave
you his brownies.
Um
Where's my hug?
Uh
What?
Oh, yeah. Sure.
- Like that.
- Okay?
Oh.
I have, like I
have cotton mouth.
Oh. Oh.
Fuck. Um, Gatorade?
Blue Frost?
Yeah.
Interesting choice.
Okay. Oh. Just
Awesome.
Have a good night.
This is Mimi and you're
listening to "Twihard for 2000s Punk."
This next one goes out to my
girl, if you're listening.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so ♪
Seems like it's been forever
that you've been gone ♪
Come in.
Oh.
Hey. Oh.
- Oh.
- Are you okay?
Oh. I'm so okay.
You still have hands.
Mm-hmm. Are you okay?
- I had a pot brownie.
- No.
I hate it.
How long until this turns off?
A few hours.
Why do people do this?
Where's Hailee?
Oh, she said
she was running errands.
Yeah, you wanna eat
my ass? You're hungry?
Oh, this is my lifelong dream.
- Yeah, but you don't have a meal plan.
- Oh. Fuck.
You probably need to eat
my ass every day, huh?
Thank you.
I don't know if I have time for that.
Wait, don't come on my skort, okay?
- I have to return it.
- I can't
Oh, goddamn
Oh. Cool.
So, I didn't tell you this before, but
today is the day that my brother died.
Oh, I-I'm an idiot.
I dragged you around
that fucking tailgate?
- I'm so sorry.
- I let you down.
You didn't let me down.
You were a legend.
A legend who's a shitty sister.
Why are you a shitty sister?
Everyone else has been posting
today for Michael, and I haven't.
I don't think the posts matter.
And I think your brother would
have been so proud of his sister,
who took down five pot brownies,
dominated Edward 40 Hands.
They were chanting your name. Like
I was so proud of you.
It was kind of the
perfect way to honor him.
It was all of the things
I used to do with Michael.
Except
I did them with you.
There is one more
thing we can do.
What?
This is Slut Slayer:
Berlin, the greatest game ever.
You played this
with your brother?
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
It's so fun, right?
Well, he clearly loved women.
What am I supposed to be doing?
You kill all the
sluts in Berlin.
Oh, I Oh, my God,
I just killed a baby.
Mm-mmm. It was a baby
slut. Don't worry.
- Oh, okay.
- Mm-hmm. Nuclear slut bomb!
- Oh, a slut massacre.
- Ooh!
Um
What am I gonna do without
you in Flesh & Gold?
I don't wanna
think about that right now.
You gotta die.
I'm so sorry, you gotta die.
Oh!
Oh, my
God! I hit the end.
Oh! Oh! Oh!
- She killed all the sluts. Oh, my God.
- I killed all the sluts.
Get in there.
- That's, uh, that's really sweet.
- Mmm.
Michael,
reached the end.
You should have been here. Maybe
you were. Love you, brother.
Thank you for today.
Hey, whores. Like, let's
get it out of the way, okay?
I need to tell someone. Like,
I just had my salad tossed.
Ass ate, ass eaten, I don't
know. I'm not an English major.
But, like, I didn't like
it. It felt like wet butt.
Like, two out of ten,
maybe three out of ten,
'cause I guess I, like,
wasn't scared. But
Wait, did I interrupt something?
Were you titty-fucking
her again? I can go.
- Again?
- It's okay. Benny told me.
Told you what?
Oh. Benny told me that he
titty-fucked you before Rockbar.
I mean, he honestly told the
whole entire party, but
No shame at all. Like,
I-I love a titty-fuck.
- What the fuck, Benny?
- I didn't, um
You're a liar.
Every time, I tell myself again
that he just wants to be my friend ♪
I can't keep up he's
locked inside my head ♪
But he just wants
to be my friend ♪
