So named for being kicked out for sex, booze, and weed?

How is that dude?

‐ He only got caught because somebody ratted,

and he has a very interesting theory about who was the rat.

MR. HYDE: Karma.

The Hindus' explanation for cause and effect.

The concept evolved over centuries,

seeking to understand why man was born

and what happens when we die.

If we live a good life,

are we rewarded in the next one?

If we hurt others, what becomes of us then?

Ancient Hindus believed there's only one fate

worse than death and that was more life.

Those who live motivated by transitory pleasures,

self‐interest were destined to return to this earth.

Recycled, if you will,

forced to commence their journey

again and again and again.

Those who lived with presence, self‐examination,

they climb to a higher path of the gods.

Hey, stop the car. ‐ What?

‐ Stop the car! Stop the car!

Alaska, what are you doing here?

‐ Miles.

Why are you in a green limo?

‐ Um, it‐‐it's‐‐it's Lara's.

I have a concussion.

The basketball game, and I‐‐I vomited

and went to the hospital.

‐ So you never...

you didn't hear?

‐ Hear what?

Are you okay?

‐ Totally.

I'm just tired...from all the sex I had with Jake.

We‐‐um, we went back to his dorm.

‐ Where is he?

Why didn't he drive you home? ‐ Christ almighty, Pudge.

Sometimes people just have their own shit, okay?

‐ Did you get into a fight?

‐ Let's just make a deal.

I get in that hideous green gas‐guzzler,

and you stop asking questions.

‐ Okay, but I don't know how that's a deal.

ALASKA: Hi.

Hi, Alaska.

[door shuts]

[brakes squeak]

EAGLE: Evening.

LARA: Hi, Mr. Starnes.

Miles is okay.

‐ Oh, happy to hear it.

You haven't seen Alaska Young, have you?

I'm looking for her.

It seems she left campus without permission.

‐ Well, we've been at the hospital, so, uh‐‐

[door clicks open]

There she is, 'cause she came with us.

‐ Go see the nurse in the morning, Mr. Halter.

[car engine starts]

[car door closes]

‐ Coming?

‐ Alaska seemed pretty upset, don't you think?

‐ I think Alaska can take care of herself.

‐ Yeah, probably.

But maybe I should just go check on her.

LARA: Miles.

My room is this way.

‐ Thanks, though, for everything tonight.

ALASKA: You said that no one would find out...

that if I did everything you said,

everything would be okay.

And it's not, because everyone knows.

This is all happening because of you,

and I need your help.

‐ Alaska, this is happening because of you.

You are in this position

because of the choices that you made.

Choice one: you brought alcohol onto campus,

which you knew was against the rules.

And when confronted with this infraction,

you had to face choice two:

work with me to identify other rule‐breakers

and bring them to justice or go home.

‐ [sniffles]

Going home isn't an option.

[sniffles]

You don't understand that.

If you kick me out of here,

I'm not gonna get another scholarship

to another good school,

which means no college.

[cries softly]

[whispers] I'll be stuck there...

in that house forever...

With him.

MILES: Hey.

‐ Hey.

[Miles exhales]

I have a concussion.

‐ While you were concussed, you missed some shit.

Trust me, Pudge, hang on to your innocence

as long as you can.

The truth will come out soon enough.

In other news, Sara dumped me.

ANNOUNCER: Round two.

Fight!

MILES: Shit.

‐ And you wanna know what's lame, Pudge?

I really care about her.

I mean, we were hopeless,

poorly matched, but still.

I told her I love her. I lost my virginity to her.

I don't know.

We fought, like, 94% of the time.

But still...I'm really sad.

Sadder than I thought I'd be, anyway.
