Hey.
So, we didn't really get a chance to talk.
Talk about what? You know, you and Daniel.
I get carried away sometimes.
Let's not make a big deal out of this.
Okay, Alex? It doesn't make any sense, Hayley.
She changed too quickly.
She couldn't stand Daniel, and now suddenly she's all over him.
Be glad you found out now before you really fell for her.
No, I know you think it's like you and Leo, but it's not the same.
Brooke doesn't care about anyone except herself.
That's why she and Daniel are so perfect for each other.
They probably had a fight and she's just using you to get back with him.
But Daniel didn't even see us.
She went off to Eric's and then she came back a completely different person.
What are you doing?
- Hello.
- Hi, Eric.
It's Hayley.
- Hey, Hayley.
- I'm here with my brother.
We wanted to find out what happened with Brooke.
Brooke Uh, yeah.
I took her to my office.
Yeah, we looked for the surveillance footage of the accident.
We saw that nobody tampered with the car and then we called Judy.
- Really?
- Yeah.
Turns out she lost an earring while walking on that cliff and was looking all over for it.
Anyway, she was in a real hurry to get back to make up with her boyfriend or something.
So I drove her back.
- Okay.
Thanks, Eric.
- You're welcome.
Sorry, bro.
Morning, sunshine.
Good morning.
What's this for? It's not my birthday yet.
Just open it.
Hmm.
No way! I've wanted these so bad.
Brooke, what's going on? You're finally getting rid of your cast today, so I thought you might like a new pair.
All right.
Come on, get up! Let's go to the hospital.
Wait.
What made you change your mind? Yesterday, you could hardly stand to look at me.
I realized we were meant to be.
Hey.
Hi.
Now, I promise, even though I'm your girlfriend, there won't be a conflict of interest with you as our captain.
What about your music, Aspen? It was your lifelong dream to go to the London Conservatory.
My dream is to be where my love is.
If that means putting my singing career on hold for a couple of years, so be it.
But it was a big decision.
Why didn't you talk to me first? You know me.
Once I make my mind up, that's it.
Where my Eagles at? That's what I'm talking about, baby.
Hey, man, chillin', chillin', chillin'.
It's good to be back.
Hey! Hey.
Hey.
Wait, wait, wait.
Sophie, will you take a picture of us?
- Yeah, of course.
- We have to send this to your mom.
- My mom?
- Yeah.
She'll love it! Come on, smile! One, two, three.
Aw.
Look how beautiful they are.
Right? One day, you're gonna pay for all this.
I thought we were beyond all this.
Tell that to Louis.
He considered me family and I betrayed his daughter.
Stop being so melodramatic.
You did Brooke a favor in straightening her out.
And that whole "meant to be" mantra? It was very clever.
Look what she wrote.
"Know that you will always be my white knight.
" Now they've even taken her name off her locker.
Poor Maxy.
I can't believe they replaced her so fast.
Yeah, it's like they want to show us how dispensable we all are.
Why don't you just phone her? You think? Yeah, it's better than crying over her letter, right? All right, guys.
Louis wants us to meet him in the lobby.
Let's go.
Hello? We're only a point and a half ahead of the Eagles? What is this? We must do something about this.
Let's just switch her over to the Eagles.
As you know, we don't usually accept students in the middle of the year, but Aspen was originally accepted into the Greenhouse last year, so welcome.
Thank you.
So I know we've all had a rough time recently.
I think it's time we get back to our normal Greenhouse routine.
We've decided to have a pop quiz to see how much you've all really learned so far this year.
Uh, I'm awful at those.
Don't worry.
There's probably a twist.
But there's a twist.
Each student will be asked one question.
The goal is to put together a streak of correct answers and the team with the longest streak wins the challenge.
See? No, this is worse.
Not only will I fail but I'll bring everybody down with me.
The prize.
Yes, Parker.
The winning team gets a day off at the beach tomorrow, with an all
-you
-can eat barbecue! I love California! Uh, Aspen, we'll be testing material you may have not learned yet, so you won't have to participate.
Okay, everyone, so, back to the clubhouse to prepare.
Suzanne will be there shortly to begin the quiz.
Yeah! Let's do this, Eagles! Eagles! Eagles! Guys, we've got this.
I just wanted you to know that I had no idea she planned to give up London for me.
Well, isn't she full of surprises? Excuse me, Mr.
Osmond? Headmaster Osmond? Sir? Louis is fine.
I wanted to call Emma.
Do you have her phone number? Um Yeah, um, stop by my office after the challenge and I'll help you get in touch with her.
Oh, wow.
Awesome! Thank you, sir.
Headmaster.
Louis.
What did Max want? Oh, poor boy's missing Emma.
He's a good kid.
Y equals Good.
You got this, okay? Hey.
Let me know if you need help with that next problem.
Hey, Tracy.
Hey, you need help with that? I swear, I hate linear algebra! I mean, why can't I remember this formula for slope
-intercept form? I'll be right back, okay.
Hey, relax.
You got this.
Look.
The formula is y = mx + b.
So the problem is y = 5x + 3.
Can you graph it? So 5x equals that? That's what I'm saying.
I mean, who uses this stuff in real life anyway? It's five over one.
What? Hey.
Stand up.
Come on, I want to show you something.
Hey, Tony.
Thanks.
Stay with me on this, all right? Think fast.
Okay.
You're standing at center court.
Now dribble the ball three steps towards me.
I'm the y intercept of three.
Okay.
One, two, three.
Good.
Now you're gonna walk five steps forward and one step to the right.
Okay.
So, one, two, three, four, five.
- Then to the right?
- Yeah.
Cool.
Stop right there.
Now you're at point B.
Okay? So if you connect point B, which is you, to me Then y = 5x + 3.
- Exactly.
Yes!
- Hey, that's not bad.
- You got it.
Good.
- Give me some.
Thank you.
Of course.
Good job.
Come on, guys, you're gonna give me whiplash.
First you're together, then you're at each other's throats.
And now this cuteness? I can't keep up.
- We were meant to be.
- She says that all the time.
Because it's true, Daniel.
We were meant to be.
Mmm.
Okay, that's weird.
Are they testing us on the entire book?
- It could be anything.
- It's 300 pages! Actually, it's 314 plus the appendix.
Some of it's just pictures though.
All right, listen up.
I've got the list of subjects for the quiz.
"Linear algebra" "Linear algebra, chapters one to three, leadership, American presidents before Lincoln, computer science, intro to Java, psychology, learning and motivation,
- art history"
- I am so screwed.
Don't stress.
You'll be fine.
Guys? Can I have your attention, please? Thank you.
Why is she reading the instructions? She's not even participating.
Actually, I am.
I don't want any special treatment.
Ravens, put away your books and gather around.
This challenge has begun.
Okay, Ravens, listen up.
Each student will be asked a question in turn.
You are not allowed to help each other.
The Eagles are being asked the exact same questions.
Aspen, are you sure you want to participate? Positive.
Okay.
Leo, we'll start with you.
Which member of George Washington's cabinet d*ed after a duel? Alexander Hamilton.
That's correct.
Okay, I know this.
It's, uh Hamilton? Yes.
Okay! Okay, Aspen.
What style of painting was developed by Georges Seurat? I hope you're not going easy on me because I just got here.
Anyway, the answer is clearly pointillism.
- That's correct.
- Do you know, there is actually a lovely jubbly painting of his over at the National Gallery at Trafalgar Square.
It is breathtaking.
Okay Becca.
Daniel.
Which performing artist is known as the King of Rock 'n' Roll? Why didn't I get this? I love Michael Jackson.
- Elvis Presley.
- Elvis Presley.
- That's correct.
- Yes.
See, I knew that one.
What? All right.
Parker, I have a math question for you.
Great.
This is a graph.
I want you tell me what the equation is.
Psst.
You got this.
Okay.
Is everything all right, Parker?
- Bro, you okay?
- He's fine.
Y = 6x + 9.
That's correct.
- That's what I'm talking about!
- I knew I had it! You see? I told you you could do it.
Good job.
Who was the first African
-American player to join Major League Baseball? Well, I don't watch baseball, or any of the sports.
Oh! Uh, I remember this from our civil rights history course.
Yes! Uh, Jackie Robinson.
- Jackie Robinson.
- That's correct.
And now over to our Jackie.
Jackie, what do you call a two
-dimensional array made up of numbers or letters? I think the answer is a matrix.
Good job, Alex.
Yes!
- Focus, Jackie.
- Leave her alone, you're distracting her! I'm just trying to help.
Jackie? There's a movie trilogy named after the answer.
You are not allowed to help, or you'll disqualify the whole team.
Back to the Future? I'm sorry, Jackie.
It was a matrix.
Ravens, you're back to zero points.
It's not your fault, she threw you off.
Hayley, you're up next.
Who composed this famous piece? Suzanne, this challenge is ridiculous! You're just creating tension between all of us.
The strength of your team relies on the abilities of its individuals.
Too bad we can't pick the individuals in our own team.
What about the question I asked you? It's Handel.
George Frideric Handel.
Born German, then became British.
That's right.
Judy.
- Hmm?
- Come here.
Look at this.
Tectonic subductions are finally active.
So we've reached the threshold.
Good.
How soon can we start? Pretty soon.
I still have to calibrate the drag coefficient of the magnetite.
That could take at least 72 hours.
How's 24? You want to start tomorrow? That's impossible.
Nothing's impossible for you, Marcus.
I'll let the client know that we'll be ready for the trial run.
Ravens, you have twelve in a row.
Max, it's now your turn.
Maybe we should move Jackie to another seat so she doesn't ruin our streak.
- She's right.
- How dare you insult her like that? What did they teach you in that school in London? How to be rude? I bet you aced that class.
Guys, let's try and focus, okay? Okay, Max.
What do you call a geometric entity with magnitude and direction? Hey, we just learned this in math class.
I'm drawing a blank.
Come on, even I can get this! Isosceles triangle? Is that your answer? Yes.
I'm sorry, Max.
It was a vector.
Of course! Vector! How could I forget that? Now there's no pressure on you.
The release of Sgt.
Pepper was in 1967.
That's correct! All right, Brooke, you ready for some American lit?
- Yes! It's your favorite subject!
- Yeah.
Which novel ends with the line, "So we b*at on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past"? We haven't studied American literature yet at my old school.
- What was that line again?
- "Ceaselessly into the past.
" The past, right.
Bloody hell, I have no idea.
Um, maybe we should move Aspen so she doesn't ruin our streak.
Tom Sawyer? Moby d*ck? You're just guessing.
I can't accept that.
Um I have no idea! I'm so sorry.
I am such an idiot! I have I have no idea.
Oh, my gosh.
Sorry! "Boats against the current.
Boats against the current.
" Come on, I know you know this! Sophie, one more word and I'll disqualify the entire team.
Okay, fine.
Sorry.
Um, I mean I don't know.
I can't remember.
Well, the answer is The Great Gatsby.
- Oh, man.
- Great.
Great.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, guys.
Dude, we talked about this last Friday at lunch!
- You told me the book made you cry.
- Yeah, I'm sorry.
I will never forgive myself for this! I single
-handedly destroyed this entire challenge! You didn't know an answer to a question, Aspen.
That's all that happened.
Unbelievable.
I mean, this girl always has to be the center of attention.
I feel sorry for her.
What? Are you serious? After the way she treated you? I know how it feels to ruin everything.
It's not your fault.
It's just a game.
And you did your best.
It's okay.
Eagles.
Ravens.
Congratulations on an exciting challenge.
The results were very close.
The difference between your two teams was one answer.
Naturally.
Eagles, you had 11 correct answers in a row.
And Ravens, you had 12 correct answers in a row.
You won by one answer! We won! It's on me, guys.
Sorry.
Max, what you did for me You're a true friend.
Max, this is Emma's number.
When you call her, please give her our love.
Well, what are you waiting for? Hey.
Um I wanted to apologize for how I was acting before.
Sometimes I can be a bit careless.
It's okay.
I can be like that, too, sometimes.
- Hello?
- Hi, Emma? It's me, Max.
So, we didn't get a chance to talk before you left in such a hurry.
- I know.
- So, how's your mom? Good.
I mean, not really.
Emma, you sound weird.
Is everything okay?
- I'm sorry, Max, I have to go.
- What, no, wait Here's the encrypted IP address.
Well? We're ready to go.
- When?
- Tomorrow.
And our tracks are covered, yes? The only satellite that could have traced us is no longer functioning.
- We're ready.
- Good.
So, Judy, when will our earthquake take place?
