ANNOUNCER:
Previously on Felicity...

I can honestly say,

without any sense
of uncertainty,

that I never want
to see you again.

I can't be with you like this.

You want something with me.

You just aren't strong
enough to have it.

FELICITY: It's one thing
to say you're gonna let go,

it's another to actually do it.

So, when I walked into the
haircutting place, I was taking a leap.

But I wasn't doing it for a guy.

I was doing it for me.

Wow.

FELICITY: Wow,
good, or wow, bad?

Definitely wow, bad.

I don't think it's so bad.

I just think it's
a different look,

kind of like a new me.

Guys are gonna hate it.

MAN: Oh, God.

What, you don't like it?

You look hot.

You know he doesn't count.

(THEME SONG PLAYING)

Dear Sally, I did
something drastic.

I dropped pre-med.
Let me back up.

I need to explain this so
you don't think I'm crazy.

It all started with my hair.

Whoa!

Your hair looks incredible.

Thank you. (CHUCKLES)

FELICITY: People had these
huge reactions to my haircut.

I mean, my stupid haircut.
People I didn't even know.

Oh, my God, you
cut off your hair!

Yeah!

Gutsy move.

It's like a whole new you.

People... I mean, strangers,

seemed to think I had
changed in some major way,

which I sort of had,

ending it with Ben
and everything.

But it sort of got me thinking.

What's the next step?

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Come in.

(SIGHS) I'm having
the hugest crisis.

Your hair looks amazing.

Oh. Thanks, Ruby.

Did you just break
up with someone?

Um, well, yeah, but...

I'd love it. A totally new you.

Thank you. (LAUGHS)

I think I'm gonna drop out.

I mean, the one class I
really wanted was canceled.

All right, well, uh,
what was the one class?

Norwegian Landscapes.

What is that, Geography?

No, it's an Art History class.

See, my grandmother had
this wallpaper when I was little,

and it had the most beautiful
Norwegian scenery on it,

with windmills, and I
just fell in love with it.

I always thought
windmills were Dutch.

What?

Oh, I could be totally wrong.

I just... I mean, they
could be Norwegian.

Here, let's look at
the catalog together.

Sometimes, when you know
exactly what you want, like you do,

you can pass up some good stuff.

So why don't we look for a
different art class, like drawing.

There are some amazing
drawing classes in here.

Let's see.

Like, how about Drawing 10?

Oh, and Sherman teaches that.

I've heard she's
a great professor.

I'd love to take that class.

God, Schwab is teaching
the oil painting study?

Oh, you have to take that.

I mean, he's
supposedly a genius.

But I'm not really that
interested in painting.

Oh, okay. Um...

What do you want to study?

I don't know.

I... I can't decide.

All right. Um...

(LAUGHS) There is a class in here
called Costumes of Czarist Russia.

Really?

That sounds good. Okay.

I think I'm gonna
see if that's open.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Can I keep that?

Sure.

You really saved me.

FELICITY: And that's when I started
to totally rearrange my schedule.

Just hypothetically, at first.

There were all these
amazing art classes,

all these things I'd
always wanted to take

but I'd sort of forgotten about.

And I would have been
happy to just take one of them,

but when I checked,

my pre-med schedule
didn't leave room for anything.

And that's when I realized that

I had backed
myself into a corner,

and I had to get out.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

I can see that.

Is Ben on your mind?

Actually, no.

I've gotten pretty
good at avoiding him.

Rearranged my schedule
at Dean & DeLuca

and changed some
routes to class.

That out of sight, out of
mind thing kind of works.

Good. So we can
get back to work.

Have you checked out
the course catalog recently?

There's some really
incredible art classes in there.

No, no, no.

You are not thinking about
dropping pre-med, are you?

I'm not dropping anything.

Yes.

Yeah, you are.

I can see it. I'm
your lab partner.

Elena, I'm not dropping pre-med.

I'm not.

Hi, I'm here to drop pre-med.

You're all set.

Have a good semester.

Thanks.

SEAN: Your end up.
BEN: I can't hold it.

SEAN: Okay, okay,
okay, okay, okay.

I'll turn around.
I'll turn around.

BEN: I got it. Hey.

BOTH: Hey. What is this?

Cash-and-carry, my
favorite way to shop.

It's, uh, my new bed.

The old one had a broken leg.

Oh, yeah, I remember.

This one looks bigger, too.

Yeah, it's a...
It's a queen-size.

The other one was
too small for two people.

This one, you know,
you got more room...

Okay. That's enough
of that conversation.

(CHUCKLES) So what's up?

I just found an apartment.

You did? Really?

I did, down in the East
Village near Tompkins Square.

That's great. That's really
great. Congratulations.

That's too bad.

I'm gonna go meet Susan, my
new roommate, in a couple of days,

go give her first
and last months' rent.

She seems really great.

So, I told her that I would
move in at the end of the month,

and, uh, I don't know,
I guess you guys

can start looking for your
permanent roommate.

Yeah.

Yeah, I guess so.

Do you wanna... You
wanna lift this thing?

Okay, I'll get the front door.

Okay.

BEN: Okay.

Sean.

Sean.

Yeah. Let's go.

All right. Whoa.

So, guess who's in that class.

I don't know. Who?

Bridgid. The girl
from the party.

The one who gave
me her phone number

and then it turned out to be the
number for Ray's Original Pizza.

Oh, yeah. Ouch.

Right. But I'm thinking
about asking her out again.

Is that crazy?

No, not at all.

And you shouldn't feel
like a total idiot, either.

I don't.

Seriously, sometimes it's
best just to bounce right back

from that kind of
brutal rejection.

Well, I... No, I wouldn't
say brutal, exactly.

Yeah. Yeah, that's it.

See, chicks love a
guy with confidence.

Richard... I'm
telling you, go for it.

There's no way
she'll turn you down.

Not twice. No.

You're golden, Noel.

Okay, can you stop talking now?

All right, the more
you try to convince me,

the more I'm convinced
it's a terrible idea.

It's an excellent idea.
Felicity crushed you,

and pizza girl already
blew you off once.

You're down and out, man.

No, the best thing to do is
to get right back on the horse.

Richard, not another
word, all right?

I'm doing this.

As well you should. Please?

And I'm saying that's good.

Are you sure this isn't all
just a knee-jerk reaction

to your break-up with Ben?

Me dropping pre-med
has nothing to do with Ben.

I can't believe you did it.

I know. I hope I didn't
screw you up too much.

Well, you did.

This could affect my GPA.

I mean, we have a system.

We work well together.

Never mind. You'll be back.

Elena...

Hey, so I just bought a
shower curtain, put it up myself.

The bathroom is
now fully functional.

Oh, my God.

I didn't even recognize you.

ELENA: Doesn't
her hair look great?

If you say so.

Thanks.

It'll grow out, right?

Noel!

I'm just asking.

Okay, so you have a
bad hair year, you know?

Go buy a hat.

Is this making you feel better?

Yeah, I feel great. Thanks.

Will you stop?

All right, I'm gonna leave.

You know, I was really
hoping there was a chance

we could work past this.

Well, we can't.

Obviously. Obviously.

See you later.

I'll call you.

That was a very
jerky thing to do.

I'm not the one
who cut her hair.

Sally, of course I
sympathize with Noel,

and I feel terrible about
everything that happened,

but it was obvious that Noel and I
could not be in the same room together.

And that was that.

Hey. Hey.

Uh, Bridgid, no "T," right?

Do I know you?

Yeah, Noel. Um...
We met last weekend.

You gave me your number,

which, uh, turned out to be

the number for Ray's
Original. (CHUCKLES)

Oh.

Yeah, but good timing
on that, by the way.

I was really in the mood
for a pizza right then.

I'm sorry about that.

Uh, I'm going to ask
for your number again,

and, uh, this time,
just so you know,

I'm kind of in the
mood for Chinese food.

(CHUCKLES)

FELICITY: (SIGHS) So there I
was, I mean, ready for this new class,

this big change,
ready for the future.

But then, something
happened I hadn't planned on.

Turns out my past had
decided to take an art class, too.

Uh, I forgot to
assign you partners

for your homework project.

Let's see. What if you just pair
up with the person to your left?

Hi. I'm Felicity.

Hi. Bridgid.

It's nice to meet
you. Yeah, you, too.

So, basically, art is my life.

Really?

And, uh, one more thing.

Critiques start Friday.

They can be quite
difficult for newcomers,

so, be prepared to shore
up those fragile self-esteems.

(CLASS LAUGH)

That's a little nerve-racking.

Yeah. Tell me about it.

Of all the classes
in this school,

you had to come
into one of mine.

I'm sorry. I did not know
you were in this class,

otherwise I wouldn't
have taken it.

Hey, I'll call you later.

Okay.

Oh, and I'll call you.

Okay.

Look, if you don't bother
me, I won't bother you.

Fine.

It's impossible to know
which computer to get.

What do you think?

Ow.

Are you even listening to me?

Thank God you're here.

I'm sorry. I'm probably
just driving you crazy.

It's completely fine. What's up?

I'm buying a computer and
I have no idea what to get.

Okay, there's
PCs. There's iMacs.

There's ThinkBooks.

There's iPads.

I really don't know
where to start.

Well, don't worry. There are a
million computer stores on Broadway.

Yeah, and they've confused me.

What about Noel? Isn't he
Mr. Genius Computer Guy?

Uh, yeah. Noel?

Is that a friend of yours?

Can I please call him?

(CHUCKLES) Actually...

The thing is, I don't really know
where I put his new number, so...

Look in the student
directory. Noel Crane.

Is he really Mr. Computer
Genius Guy?

Definitely.

Oh, perfect.

Thank you.

(LAUGHS)

So much.

Thanks a lot.

No problemo.

Hmm.

And, um, what about
musical instruments?

I don't even own a radio.

That's good, really good.

How about smoking?

You don't... You
don't smoke, do you?

Never.

Never?

Come on.

I mean, not one
time, not even a puff?

Would you take it easy? What?

Don't you think you're
being a little harsh?

Um, I've got allergies.

I'm allergic to peanuts.

Oh, that's great, Andrew.

Um, you know, I don't
think this is gonna work.

(SIGHS) Thanks for
coming by, Andrew.

I... I'm really sorry.

Okay.

I'll show myself out then.

What's your problem?
That guy's like the best

of the five guys
we've seen so far.

It was the hair, man.
That hair threw me.

The hair? Yes. He had the...

That, like...

The flippy things on each side.

You can't nix a guy
'cause of his hair.

Oh, yes, I can.

It's the first thing
you learn in business.

Appearance counts.

What? If he doesn't respect us,

he's not gonna respect the loft.

Am I right? Mmm-hmm.

Did he say one thing
about this place?

No.

Well, this is a
nice place to live,

and I just... I can't see
taking him over Julie.

Julie is not an option.

She already found a place.

Okay.

We'll... We'll keep looking.

Okay.

This isn't easy, drawing someone's
portrait without drawing their face.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

Drawing my hands
was a good idea.

It's harder than I
thought it would be.

I'm a little freaked out

about presenting
my drawing on Friday.

You know, I don't think she's
gonna even grade us on these.

It's not that. It's just...

I mean, I've been
drawing forever,

but I've never really
put any of my work

up for display before, so...

I'm sure you'll do fine.

I hope so.

I've sort of committed to this.

So, you know that guy Noel?

Yeah.

He, uh...

He's pretty persistent, huh?

What, he asked you out?

Yeah.

I mean, he seems
like a really nice guy.

I mean, I wouldn't mind going
out to dinner with him. I just...

I don't want him pursing
something that's not going anywhere.

Oh, you're not interested.

Actually, I'm seeing someone.

Oh.

Does he go to school here?

She.

And actually, no,
she transferred

to Bennington last semester.

Can you do me a favor?

Like, just don't say anything.

You know, let me
tell Noel myself.

Oh. Of course.

Thanks.

That must be tough.

I mean, having a
long-distance relationship.

Yeah.

But, uh...

Relationships are
tough in general, so...

Tell me about it.

(CHUCKLES)

RICHARD: She was
talking to pizza girl?

She's not allowed
to talk to pizza girl.

Felicity's not manipulative
like that, okay?

They were assigned to
each other. It's not like...

It's not like she went out
of her way or anything.

Doesn't matter.

So what, she should have
refused the assignment?

Yes.

There are other people
in the class, right?

See, the cards are always
stacked against you, man.

Breaks my heart.

Yeah, you're up the creek.

I am?

Yeah. It's the classic
ex-girlfriend sabotage maneuver.

She buddies up to pizza girl.

Then she starts
spinning her web.

Pretty soon, she'll
be talking lies.

Nah. Yeah, I really don't
think Felicity would do that.

I'm telling you, man,

Felicity got to pizza girl.

I can only hope that the
damage isn't permanent.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

I'm sorry, are you Noel?

Yeah.

Hi. I'm Ruby.

I'm a freshman at Calvin Hall.

I looked you up in
the student directory.

I'm sorry. I probably
should have called,

but I was getting a cup
of coffee across the street.

Um, anyways, my R.A.s
are Felicity and Meghan.

Um, they suggested I talk to
you about getting a computer.

Felicity sent you.

Ah, she's a piece of work.

What? Is something wrong?

No. Uh, no, it's nothing.

Look, I'm in a rush
to get to a class, so...

Why don't I write my number
down, and I'll just leave it with you.

You could call me later at home.

Okay, that's fine.
Or I'll call you later.

That'd be great. Okay.

What are you doing?

Look, just wait...

I obviously came at a bad time.

No, you didn't. It's...

So you're jealous?

No, I'm not jealous.

But you said you felt a pang.

Yeah, a pang is
different than jealous.

But it bothers you that Noel
invited Bridgid to The River Cafe.

Yeah. Only because that's where
he and I went on our first date.

That is jealousy.

I don't think
that's what that is.

Let me explain something to you.

You and Noel
are ancient history.

It's time to get over it
and put it all behind you

before we all get
old, gray, and die.

Are you in a bad
mood or something?

No, I just gotta get home,

now that I have no lab partner
and twice as much Chem work to do.

(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)

You... You're not moving
out tonight, are you?

Uh-uh, like a week and a half.

I'm just trying to
get a head start.

Aah.

Uh, you want some help?

Yes, I do. All right.

If you can stand on that box.

Yeah.

Don't rip it.

Okay.

(CHUCKLES) What the hell
did you put this thing up with?

Gum. Gum?

I didn't have any tape
and it works really well.

Yeah, I noticed.

(CHUCKLES)

So, did you play any
music over the summer?

Yeah.

Yeah.

I wrote a lot of songs, too.

You did? That's great.

They had titles
like When Ben Dies.

Oh.

Yeah.

Guess I deserve to
listen to them, huh?

Lots of times.

Yeah.

Thank you.

There you go. There it is.

So, is everything
all right with you?

Yeah, it's good, I guess.

You know, pretty good.

Yeah. Breakups are hard.

Yeah.

But you, um...

You get over 'em eventually.

Yeah, I guess.

FELICITY: It's now officially a
week since my breakup with Ben,

and every once in a
while I get this feeling

that maybe getting over someone
you're in love with isn't impossible.

Unless, maybe you
don't actually get over it.

Maybe you just
learn to live with it.

Hi.

Hi.

Look, I called you the
other day. Did you...

Yeah. Um, I talked to Felicity.

Did she tell you?

Uh, no, no.

Um...

(STAMMERS) Can we talk later?

Yeah. Yeah, that'd be great.

Okay.

FELICITY: Oh, thanks.

Hey, uh...

What did you say
to Bridgid about me?

What? Nothing.

So, my name was
never even mentioned.

Yes, your name was mentioned,

but she brought it up, so...

Okay. Well, what did she say?

Nothing. Look, you know,
you should talk to her.

Fine. I will.

And you sent one of your
advisees to me for help, didn't you?

What? Oh, Ruby.

No. She was asking
about computers...

Okay, you know what? No.

Listen, we are not friends.

Okay? You have no right
to talk with Bridgid about me,

or to send your
advisees to me for help.

I did not plan that.

God, you're acting like I'm out
to get you or something, Noel.

Well, that's what it
seems like. I mean...

We made a deal, okay, that we would
stay away from each other completely,

and now, suddenly,
you're everywhere.

Okay, you know what? If
us being in a class together

is so horrible for
you, maybe I'll drop it.

Yeah, that would
solve it for me.

Hi. I need to switch into
another section of Drawing 10.

They're all full.

Well, can I take
another drawing class?

What about Art 220,
Drawing Movement?

Sure you can take that. Great.

Just as soon as
you take Drawing 10.

It's a prerequisite for all
the other drawing classes.

(SIGHS)


No exceptions ever?

Never.

(SOFTLY) Never.

(SIGHS)

Listen, I was in
here the other day,

and I dropped pre-med,
which was a huge deal for me,

and you were really great, and
you said, "Have a good semester,"

which seemed like a
small thing, but it wasn't.

It was a huge thing for me, because
I'd just rearranged my entire schedule,

committed to this art thing,

and I just need to
rearrange it one more time.

Please?

Is there any chance I
could take another art class?

Just as soon as
you take Drawing 10.

Hi, Susan.

Oh, hi, Julie. Sorry I'm late.

I got stuck calming down a
client who was just audited.

Oh, that's okay. No problem.

I got the cashier's check,

and I just found
this little lamp

I thought would look
really cute in my room.

Listen, I, um...

I meant to call you earlier,
but things got so busy.

Julie, I hate to do this,

but it turns out I'm not gonna
need a roommate after all.

My sister called yesterday

and she just found out she's
getting transferred here from Atlanta

and needs a place to
stay, so she's moving in.

I'm so sorry. I
really didn't expect it.

Is this definite?

Yeah.

I'm sorry.

That's okay.

Bye.

Bye. I am really sorry.

(KNOCKING)

Hey.

Hi.

Can I talk to you for a sec?

Yeah, I guess.

Come in.

I just wanted to stop by

and tell you that I
didn't drop drawing.

I went there and I tried to
switch into another class,

but they were all full, so...

I'm sorry.

Great.

Look, there's got to be a
way we can work through this.

I don't see how.

Noel, in class, we don't even
have to talk to each other, okay?

And if me partnering with
Bridgid is really a problem for you,

I'll work with someone else.

I... I don't care
who your partner is.

Well, then just tell
me what we can do

to make this easier on us.

It's not about the class.

Okay?

Every time I see you,
it's just another reminder

that you chose Ben over me.

Noel... No.

I'm not looking for
an apology, okay, or...

God, another one of those sympathetic
looks that everyone keeps giving me.

I'm looking

for the truth, an explanation.

(SIGHS) It's just
not that simple.

I mean...

What is it about him?

Or... about me?

I can't... I... Yes, you can.

All right? All I'm
asking for is the truth.

How can I answer that, Noel?

I mean, what
could I possibly say

that would make
things between us okay?

What if I told you that I
made a huge mistake,

and that I never should
have gone with Ben?

That really make it any better?

You're just saying that
because Ben broke your heart.

Noel, what do you
want me to say?

I don't know.

Nothing.

(DOOR OPENS)

(DOOR CLOSES)

So, I know this seems weird,
but being in a cooking school,

I need to make sure you have
a good setup in the kitchen.

Right. How's it working for you?

This is great.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Looks amazing.

(LAUGHS) And you.

No, no, no. Thanks,
but, uh, cholesterol.

Oh, I used egg whites.

By the way, this place is sweet.

(DOOR OPENS)

BEN: How's the omelet?

SEAN: Oh, it's delicious.

PRESTON: You really
like it? SEAN: Uh-huh.

I mean, because
if I get this place,

I'll probably be cooking
for you all the time.

I mean, if that's okay.

That sounds good. Julie, hey.

Hi. Hey.

Hi, I'm Julie.

Preston. Nice to meet you.

Yeah. Preston might
be moving in with us.

Oh.

That's great.

This looks incredible.

Yeah. Preston's a chef.

Oh, God, I can't even boil
an egg. (BOTH LAUGH)

Yeah, but you make
a mean bowl of cereal.

(ALL LAUGH)

She does.

What's up?

(SIGHS) Nothing. I
just... I had a crazy day.

Well, you're gonna
really love living here.

So, this is gonna be great.

Yeah.

(DOOR CLOSES)

Hi. Uh, Ruby, right?

Right.

I'm Noel.

I remember.

Look, I, uh... I owe
you an apology.

I was sort of a
jerk the other day.

Sort of?

But not as bad
as my friend, right?

That's nothing
to be too proud of.

Yeah, you're right.

So, did you ever figure out what
kind of computer you were gonna get?

Oh, yeah, yeah,
yeah. I figured it out.

More or less.

Uh, you sure?

Well, I was gonna
order an eMachine...

Oh, my God. No.

No, no, no, no.

Uh, they just lifted the design

from the iMac...
From the iMac. I know.

The salesman said
that the eMachine

has a 433 megahertz chip,

compared to the iMac's 333.

Yes, but, uh, the iMac has...

Has a 512k backside
Level-2 cache

and a 64-bit backside bus.

Yes.

Uh, so what did you do?

I bought the iMac.

What?

Nothing. No,
it's nothing. It's...

It's just, uh...

You're a Mac person.

Yeah.

I guess I am.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Come in.

I kept thinking,

"Maybe she'll realize how crazy
this all is and come back to lab."

You're not coming back, are you?

I told you I've made up my mind.

So you've officially
abandoned me.

Elena, look, you
are my best friend.

I would never abandon you.

Well, that's what it feels like.

Me dropping out of pre-med is
not going to change our friendship.

I promise you.

I know, but it's made my
life hell having no lab partner.

I can't tell you how
much work I've got.

Well, you need a lab partner.

I mean, it's just too
much work for one person.

All you have to
do is ask the T.A.

He'll assign you one.

Can you just explain something?

All the classes
you took last year,

I mean, all the planning,

I thought you loved medicine.

You love medicine.

(SIGHS)

Let me see it.

Looks pretty good.

You think? Yeah.

(SIGHS) I just hope this
critique goes okay tomorrow.

I... I don't wanna get
all mushy or anything,

but, um...

I'm proud of you.

You made a tough decision,

and you're sticking to it.

But you still made my life
hell and you owe me big.

(EXHALES)

Ah, thank you.

We were just about to begin.

Okay. Good. Who
would like to comment?

All right.

I'll start us off.

What I am looking
at is two hands,

which is the first
failing of the piece.

This drawing should
feel like a composition,

but it doesn't, does it?

It feels like two distinct
and separate forms.

Yes?

MAN: Can I comment
on the hands themselves?

Mmm-hmm.

They seem a little flat.

I agree.

And the drawing doesn't
exactly address the assignment.

Do you really feel a sense
of the subject from this piece?

Whereas,

in Lee's work back here,

we are just looking
at a backpack,

and yet, I really feel a sense
of the person, of the subject.

Look at the frayed
edges. Look at the patches.

This is a traveler, and we're
taking part in her journey.

Whereas, with this
drawing right here, now,

we are just observers.

And there's not a
lot of movement.

Yes.

We don't feel like we can exactly
reach out and shake these hands.

I think the detailing is nice.

SHERMAN: I disagree.

I think it's uneven.

This area looks like it was
drawn without any thought to detail,

versus this section, which is
full of haphazard crosshatches.

But we'll get to the
detail in a minute.

What I want right now is
to focus on the perspective,

which doesn't work at all.

I didn't think the
detailing was so terrible.

Thanks.

You defended me.

I was just being honest.

(SIGHS)

So, dropping pre-med was
a pretty brilliant move, huh?

(CHUCKLES)

I'm actually really
bad at this, aren't I?

Thank God, I haven't
told my parents yet.

They're gonna think I'm insane,

and they'll be right.

I just gotta regroup
and think this all over.

You know, Burkey said that maybe
I was having a psychotic break.

Maybe I'm having
a psychotic break.

You're not having
a psychotic break.

But how can I be sure? I mean,

when you're having one, you
probably have absolutely no idea.

You're not having one.

And I bet when
you're having one,

all your friends tell
you that you're not.

Okay, fine, you're
having a psychotic break.

Are you just saying that
to make me feel better?

Listen, Sherman is known for
being incredibly hard on new students.

I heard she likes small classes,

so she tries to scare
the hell out of everyone

and weed out as
many kids as possible.

And your hair's not so bad.

Liar. You hate it.

No, I don't.

I... I felt bad ever
since I said that.

I was just messing
around with you.

What was I thinking?

Well, you can always
grow it back, you know. It's...

That's not what I meant.

I know you said that you
didn't want an apology,

but, God, Noel,

I am so sorry that I hurt you.

You were one of the closest
people in the world to me, and...

The worst part is I
completely understand

why you never want
to talk to me again.

(EXHALES)

Turns out, Bridgid's
gay, by the way.

I know.

You know, I'm not... I'm
not the biggest omelet fan.

Yeah, me, neither.

I'm sort of a cereal guy myself.

Yeah.

You know, I know you
got that new place lined up,

but maybe you should stay.

If you want.

Yeah.

That would be good.

Hey, you.

Hi.

How you doing? Uh...

Fine. Much better, thanks.

Good.

I've been thinking about it,

and I really like doing
this drawing thing,

so I'm gonna keep working at it.

And, uh, hopefully, someday
my hands will actually be shakable.

Or... (CHUCKLES)
You know what I mean.

Yeah, sort of.

You know, I was just heading
up to the roof to sketch a little,

but I could blow it off for a
while if you wanted to come in.

Oh, uh, actually... Hey.

Hi. Hi.

Hi. Hey.

Noel's gonna give me a
walking tour of Bleecker Street.

Do you wanna come?

Um, no, thanks.

I have a lot of work to do.

RUBY: Are you sure?

Yeah.

Then I will see you
in class next week.

Definitely.

Okay.

Shall we? Yeah.

NOEL: I like your
shoes. RUBY: Thanks.

Yeah.

(RUBY LAUGHS)

SALLY: Dear Felicity,

it was great to get your tape.

You have to send me
pictures of your new haircut.

I think it was really
brave what you did,

not just dropping pre-med,
but making that decision

to do the thing you've
always wanted to.

I'm a firm believer in
the power of change.

But there is one
thing I've learned,

and that's that the hardest
part about moving forward

is not looking back.
