01x09 - Cheating

Post by bunniefuu »

- Okay, who ate
my last applesauce?

- You did; I saw you eating it
with your hands

the last time you were drunk.

- Oh, good to know.

- Hey, ladies, have you guys
read the paper today?

- Our school paper?
- Mm-hmm.

- I have never
looked at it once.

- Look.

Whitney,
apparently your soccer coach

had an affair with a player
and was fired.

- Dude, are you serious?

- Yeah, I've heard about it,

but the details
are pretty vague.

- Whoa, this is juicy.

This is, like,
"Red Table Talk"-level juice.

Wait, is this coach hot?
Is the girl hot?

Did they get caught having
steamy sex in the showers?

We want every lurid detail.

- It's...

Me.

- What?
- Seriously?

- Well, it was me, but we
ended things a while ago.

And you can't
say anything to anyone.

If my mom finds out,
she will k*ll us all.

I'm not even sure
if I'm exaggerating.

- Yeah, okay, of course.

Whatever you need.
- Thanks.

- Whitney, you might
want to read this.

- You know what? I don't.

- No, it says he did this
with another girl

when he worked at Ithaca.

- What the f*ck?

Doesn't matter.

It's done,
so doesn't change anything.

I'm gonna go take a shower.

- ♪ I kept your flowers
at my feet ♪

♪ I don't know why
I thought I could go ♪

- So you're going
to the Title IX office?

- Yeah, Alicia said I should
go learn about all my options.

Figure out the best way
to handle

a gross dude
with a weirdly shaped d*ck.

- Weirdly shaped how?

- I mean, I only felt it
against my back,

but it felt like a can of soup
but squishier.

- You might not need
to mention his d*ck shape.

- I think it's best
to lay it all on the table.

Ladies, I will see you all
on the other side.

- Good luck, Bela.
Yes, all women.

- So what about you,
Miss Thing?

How you doing since Nico's?

- I'm hanging in there.

- Oh, sh*t.

Have y'all not talked
about this?

Should I go?
- No.

No, no, no,
let's talk about it.

- Totally, let's do it.
I'll start.

I know that I sort of kept it
from you, and that wasn't cool.

In the future,
I'll be more honest.

In that spirit,

my UTI was not
from a wet library chair.

It was from repetitive sex
with your brother.

- Okay, that's haunting.

And yes, it kind of sucked
to figure out

that everybody was keeping
this big secret behind my back.

- I should've told you.
- Yes.

Yes, you should have,
because I would've told you

not to sleep with him,
'cause I would've told you

he has a girlfriend.

- Yeah, that's a good point.

Leighton,
your brother looks good,

but that boy
wasn't raised right.

- Why are you telling me?
I'm not him.

- But at least
you got to hook up

with a guy who's
way out of your league.

- Hey!
- Listen, I don't take sides.

I just tell the truth.

♪ ♪

- His penis felt like
a can of soup?

- Yeah, I only mention it
in case I need

to identify his penis, like,
in a police lineup situation.

- Right.

Well, I will note that.

- So now what?

Do you tell Ryan,

or when exactly do you tell
my strict Indian parents?

I need to warn them
and possibly flee the country.

Or do you provide any sort

of sexual witness protection
program?

- If that's an option,
I'd like to hear about that.

- There's no need to get
ahead of yourselves here.

This is our first talk.

The next step would be
to submit a written statement,

and based on that,
my colleagues and I

would decide
if we need to intervene

to protect
the larger community.

Otherwise, it's your choice

if we move forward
with an investigation.

At this time,
my recommendation would be

for you to do everything
you can to avoid Ryan,

which means taking a break
from "The Catullan."

- Uh, no.

Ricky, do you know
how far behind you can fall

in camaraderie building
if you miss two or three days?

- I was actually gonna
suggest a few weeks.

- A few weeks?

Okay, Ricky, it's official.

You do not know
how comedy works.

- And I'm fine with that.

♪ ♪

- And that's why
I was late all the time

and slacking off
and just, like,

ruining every other aspect
of my life.

And little did I know,
I was getting two-timed

by that mother-effer.

- Go off, girl.
- Yeah.

- And when you do, can you
do it near the milk frother?

Because I've asked you
to clean it repeatedly.

- I will. I'm sorry.

I just get so angry
when I talk about Nico.

I could just...

- Damn,
I've never seen you like this.

It's kind of cute.

Like when Nemo gets mad
at his dad.

- He just made me
feel like such an idiot.

- Yeah,
well, for what it's worth,

I see you with more
of a sweet boy.

You know,
someone named Eugene or Glenn.

Type of guy
who likes to play board games,

wears New Balances
with cargo shorts.

- You're describing nerds.
- Yes. Yes, I am.

I think you should date a nerd.
I'm glad you picked up on that.

Oh, getting ready
for tomorrow's econ midterm?

- Mm-hmm.
- Is this the practice test?

- Wait, please don't. I--

- Oh, sh*t.

This is the test.

Are you gonna use this?

- I am
but only 'cause I have to.

It's my only way
to stay on track.

Otherwise, my whole life plan
is gonna be thrown off

because I have
a D on my transcript.

- Yeah, but, like,
you're gonna get caught.

You're not smooth enough
to cheat.

- I most certainly am.

- No, lies. You're not.

The test is, like,
three hours long.

Even if you had a basic
understanding of econ,

which you don't,

it's hard as hell
to memorize all that.

- Well, that's why
I have a little plan.

- A little plan?

What are you gonna--
you know what?

No, don't tell me.
Just please don't cheat.

You are not equipped
to pull that off.

- I am.

- You're sweating
just talking about it.

- That's not sweat.

I don't know what that is.

- Okay.

♪ ♪

- What's up?

- What's up? Are you serious?

You hooked up with my roommate
and made me look like an idiot.

That's what's up.
- Okay, can you

keep your voice down?
Maya's upstairs.

- Oh, my God, you are so gross.

- Okay, I get it. You're mad.

But what did you
want me to do,

text you and say,
"Hey, Leight, is it cool

if I bone your roommate
real quick?"

- Yeah, well I, didn't think
I had to tell you

not to f*ck
any of my roommates,

but now
I will make it official.

Do not have sex
with any of my roommates.

She's really upset, by the way.

Okay, she's not used
to guys like you.

You should've seen the boy
who came to visit her.

He looked like a goat.

- What do you want me
to do about it?

- Oh, I don't know, try not
being such a total D-bag

and make things right
with Kimberly.

- Okay, I will.
- Today.

- Fine.
- Like, in person.

- Great.
- Good.

- Nico, are you downstairs?

- Yeah, I'm just dealing
with something.

I'll be right up.

- You are one of the grossest
men I am related to.

Worse than weird Uncle Mark.

Apologize today, Nico.

- We get the opportunity
to just show up.

Everything that
we've trained in,

everything that
we've done before this,

we can do it;
we can do it again.

We can adapt on our feet.

We're a good team
that knows what to do.

- Yeah.
- And it's just...

- Hey, can I talk
to everyone for a sec?

I take full responsibility
for what happened.

I basically did the dumbest
thing of my entire life.

I messed up.

Both of our coaches got fired,

and now we're in a tournament
with no leader,

and it's probably gonna cost us

everything we've worked
so hard for.

And I can't fix that, but...

I hope you can forgive me.

- It's not your fault.

- No, it really is,

unless someone else
was also sleeping with him,

which I guess is possible.

- Dalton is clearly
the problem here.

He's older,
and he was your coach.

That's just
f*cking nasty and wrong.

- Yeah.
- And let's be real.

That man was low-key very dumb.

Yes.

- And he always had a pee spot

on his pants
after he went to the bathroom.

It's so true.

- Now, can we
go practice, please?

Yes.

He needs to pay.

I say you Title IX

maybe as a first step,

you could go
to another upperclassman

at "The Catullan"

- Hey, it's late.

- Yeah, it's just,
there's so much sh*t going down

with my roommates and, um,

I really wanted to see you.

- How's Bela holding up?

- She ate a bunch of
gummy worms before breakfast.

Couldn't tell you
if that's good or bad,

but I think she'll be okay.

- What's in the bag?

Is it a gift to make up

for freezing me out
of your social life?

- Basically.
- Mm.

- Yes, I got you one of those

grocery store cakes
you so weirdly love.

- Yeah, they taste better
than fancy ones.

- That's just not true,
but in time, we can fix you.

I--I asked them to write,

"Sorry I was such a bitch,"
with icing,

but apparently,
the Stop and Shop

has a "no swear words" policy.

- Try Price Chopper next time.

Anything goes at that place.

- I will.

Should we just, like,
get out of town tomorrow?

Go somewhere
we can be ourselves?

Maybe even overnight?

- Yeah, sounds nice.

How about this?

I'll drive us
and pick out the place.

And you pay for gas, meals,

and lodging because I'm poor.

- Done.
- Perfect.

Okay, now let me
see this grocery cake.

Oh, yeah, there it is.

Oh, no, wait,
it's a school bus.

No, it's a Minion.

he got me alone,

put a p*rn on,

- No, I don't want

to be involved in this,
and quite frankly,

I'm not even sure there's
a "this" to be involved in.

It sounds like
a misunderstanding.

Maybe Bela should
just talk to Ryan about it.

- He did it to Carla too.
He showed her his d*ck.

- What?
- That's why she quit.

- Look, I've known Ryan
for years.

the kind of person

his hard d*ck against people.
