Zoey didn't tell you?

GIRL: You're leaving PCA?

ZOEY: I told my parents
I'm gonna go.

- I can't.

I had to beg my parents
to let me do this,

and they finally said yes
just to get me to shut up,

and they made me promise
I'd stay here

for at least a full semester.

they wouldn't--

we'll have to wait.
