- This is great.

- Can't wait.
[laughter]

- Ow.
- [giggling]

- What's up, my peeps?

- Hey, Stacey.
- Where are you guys going

for semester break?

My parents are taking me skiing

in Steamboat Springs.

- Uh-huh.
- Wow.

- We're going camping.

- Coco is taking us.
- Up to Yosemite.

- Oh, well, be careful.

Yosemite
has a lot of wild bears.

- See?

I told you
there's a lot of wild bears

in Yosemite.

And what'd you all say?

[falsetto]
"Oh, no, Michael,

"there's no wild bears
in Yosemite.

That's crazy talk."

[Coco shrieking, crying]

- I think that's Coco.

- [wailing]

- Uh-oh.

- [wailing]

- Hey, Coco, why are you--

[Coco continues wailing]

[Coco continues wailing]

- Um, Coco?
- I can't go camping.

Leave me alone.

- Okay, what do you mean
you can't go camping?

- What's the problem?
- I thought Carl, my boyfriend,

might be cheating on me.

- Aw.
- So I went to his house

and I climbed up the tree
in his front yard

to wait for him
to come home, right?

- Of course.
- Makes sense.

- And I thought
he was gonna bring home

another girl, which he did,

but it was his mother.

- Okay, well, that's good.

- No, 'cause the branch
I was sitting on broke

and I fell on her.

- Oh, my God.
- Was she hurt?

- I don't know.
Carl says she has fractured neck

or something.

- Okay, so then what happened?

- He called me a lunatic,
then broke up with me.

So now I have to drive to Fresno
and fix this.

- You can't just leave us here
at PCA.

- It's our semester break.

[honks horn]

COCO: [continues wailing]

- Wait!
- What are we supposed to do?

- How could she just
leave us all here?

- Who packs a whole suitcase
full of ravioli and underwear?

- This was gonna be
our last week of fun

before me and Logan get stuck
with some nasty new roommate.

- Uh, don't remind me.

- Hey.
I thought you kids

would be on your way
to Yosemite by now.

- We should be.

- Coco had a meltdown
and took off.

- Oh.
She didn't take a PCA van,

did she?
- She did.

- Oh, dang it.

Every time
she takes one of our vans,

it comes back smelling like
fried chicken and tears.

- That woman does do
a lot of eating and crying.

- So, what are we
supposed to do all week?

- There's not gonna be
anyone here.

- So make that
a positive thing.

You've got the whole campus
to yourselves.

Just you guys, me,
and a few stray faculty members.

I'm sure you can think
of some fun things to do.

Well, do you wanna confess?

My apple tasted funny,
so I just heaved it.

I didn't know

- I have no idea
what he's talking about.

- This isn't about squirrels
or fruits.

It's about this.

This trophy was on display
in the hallway

on the first floor
of this building.

I admired it myself last night
on my way out.

But when I walked in
this morning,

it looked like this!

- Maybe you fell on it.

- I didn't fall on it!

If I fell on it,
how would I not know?

- 'Cause old people
forget stuff.

- Listen, there were only

two people in that hallway

between last night
and this morning.

Hemerald.

Play the security camera
footage.

[laughter, chatter]

- I got you.
- In the hole!

- That sure
looks a lot like you two.

Advance the tape to 12:41 a.m.

I think you both know
what happened next.

Play it.

[static]

You broke the security camera.

- He hit the ball.

- You sold me out--

- You boys
broke that security camera

and then you took
your hockey sticks

and bludgeoned
this golfing trophy.

My trophy.

- Your trophy?

- I won this
when I was a senior at PCA...

Over 30 years ago.

- Well, we didn't smash it.

- Don't make this worse
by lying.

- We're not lying.
- You wanna see

my hockey stick?
It's in perfect condition,

which it couldn't be
if we'd used it

to smash that trophy.

- Where's your hockey stick?

- I don't know.

- What do you mean
you don't know?

- I think I set it down
when I went to the snack machine

and then I couldn't find it.

- How convenient.
- Sir--

- You have two choices.

You boys
either admit what you did

or things are gonna get
a lot worse.

- We said we didn't do it.
- Fine.

Then as soon
as semester break's over,

we'll let the disciplinary
committee decide.

And if they say you're guilty,

you boys are out of PCA...

for good.

Until then,

you're both under dorm arrest.

[yelling]

- I want my grandma here.

My grandma would run you over--

- No, no, no.
Wait, no, please!

MICHAEL: You are a mean man.

You are a mean, mean man,
both of you.

I want a lawyer.

Ow!

But then I got bored,

so I did that.

What, you don't like it?

- What's wrong
with Michael and Logan?

- They're under dorm arrest.
- What?

- I don't know,
something about

smashing Dean Rivers'
golf trophy

with a hockey stick.
- Oh, well,

I'm sure they're innocent.

- They're guilty.
- Lola!

- Quiet, clown.

- Michael swore to me
they didn't do it.

- Then I believe him.
- Okay, if they're innocent,

then who smashed
Dean Rivers' trophy?

- That's what
we got to find out.

- Oh, no.
That's sounds like effort,

and I wanna work on my suntan.
- Come on,

there's less than a dozen
people on campus this week.

How hard could it be
to figure out who did it?

- Yeah.
You just interview everybody.

- [sighs] Okay.

- And I'll take Mark
and go check out the crime scene

after I de-clown myself.

- Okay, but hurry.
I bet the guys are freakin' out.

- I am freakin' out.
I am freakin' out, man.

[gasping]
- Relax.

- We're under dorm arrest.

If my grandma hears my name
in the same sentence

with the word "arrest,"
that lady's gonna

back over me
with her pickup truck.

And she's got big old
tractor tires on that thing.

How come you're so calm
about all this?

- 'Cause I'm rich,
and I'm innocent.

I'm also great-looking,

but that's just gravy.

- How do I know
you're innocent?

- 'Cause I was with you
last night.

MICHAEL: Not all the time,
remember?

I walked all the way
over by the library

'cause that's the only
snack machine

that's got
the raspberry doodle cakes.

I was the away from you
for at least ten minutes.

- Yeah, and that's when
I was walking back here.

- How do I know that?
- Well, how do I know

you really went
to the snack machine?

Prove it.
- I can't.

I've already digested
the doodle cake.

- For all I know,
while I was walking back here,

you went back to that hallway
with your hockey stick

and b*at Dean Rivers' trophy
to death.

- I told you,
I lost my hockey stick.

- Maybe you're lying.
- You take that back.

- No.
Why should I take that back?

- Because I'm telling
the truth.

- Show me the doodle cake.

the doodle cake.

- Show me the doodle cake.
- Leave me alone. No!
