It's all bullshit.

I don't care about them,

but these are the gods
of my people,

so either I worship them,
or I'm an outcast.

These pictures, like the ones
on my social media,

are there for one reason,
so people will envy me.

Girls want to be my friend,
and guys just want me.

I'm having so much fun, right?

This might be
the only real thing in here,

"The Handmaid's Tale,"

a story
about a woman named Offred,

trapped in an oppressive,
male-dominated society

where she doesn't have
control of her fate.

Unlike Offred,
I do have control of my fate.

I'm getting out.

- Breakfast to go.

Banana bread,

- Thanks, Mom.

This is Janet, my mother,
who thinks bread is love.

[timer dings]

- Mmm.

- Good morning, Dad.

- If you say so.

- My father, Marvin, holding
down at least three jobs,

a white whale whose white
whale is a wooden monstrosity.

Deck looks great, Dad.
- Closing in.

It's gonna be done soon.
- No, it's not.

It's a fantasy of his
that he'll finish

and get what little downtime
he has relaxing on it.

That day will never come.

- Marvin, you're gonna
be late for work!

- I know.

- Did you hear me?
- I heard.

I know.
- Oh, you heard.

- These two people
screwed once and made me.

Ew.

I'm a senior.

I worked all my life
to get here.

Everything is in place.

I just need to get

ticket to the Wonka Factory.

"The Handmaid's Tale,"

me last night.

Can I get an Amen?
both: Amen.

He's in high school,

a piece of that.

Do you care

- Talia and Emma,

in school.

- No.

Oh, God.

- Hey, ladies.

Thank you for your help.
- Sure.

And, Honor, I will see you

- Yes, gross.

But big news, bodes well.
Fingers crossed.

[soft music]

For me, high school
is about one thing,

getting out of high school.

Delete this first paragraph.
You don't need it.

The student newspaper was cut
from the school budget

like a million years ago,
so last year I volunteered

to put a new one online.

Editor-in-chief
of the school newspaper

is a good thing
to have on my record.

I'm also captain
of the volleyball team.

It's not a big sport
at this school,

but I'm not a born athlete,

and so I'm lucky
it's a lousy team.

Travis Biggins.

In a different reality,
he'd be my boyfriend.

[chuckles]

[slow music]

If I wanted him,
I could have him,

but no time for love.

[upbeat music]

On top of volleyball
and the paper,

I started a food bank for
the economically disadvantaged.

I also started
a school karate club--hi-ya!

While never letting
my grades suffer.

Ms. Felson, I think
there's been a mistake.

- I don't think so, Honor.

Oh, you're right.
That's not yours.

I'd lose my head
if it wasn't screwed on.

[bell rings]

- And she's one
of the better teachers.

Now, you're thinking, "She'll
get into college no problem.

This girl's got nothing
to worry about."

[chuckles]

Let me show you
why you know nothing.

Ms. Felson,
we're not far from here,

went to college--
Smith, I believe--

graduated sometime
in the last century.

Get going!

- Now look at him.
Lives through his son, Travis.

- Go.

- So, class,
what have we learned?

It's not just
about going to college,

it's making sure I don't have
to come back after college.

All my examples went
to good schools,

so it has nothing to do
with getting a good education.

It's about prestige, contacts,

the place that's going
to open the most doors,

where mediocre people get
outsized opportunities,

and where the genius
who wrote this book

fulfilled her potential,

It's been a four-year plan,

Harvard.

The school's brand is success.

Earned success,
unearned success,

That's my one-way ticket
out of this hellhole.

And a guarantee

you left one off.

Are you not interested
in Harvard?

I had a chance of getting in.

The acceptance rate
is about 5%.

But I got a surprise
for you, Honor.

Not many people know this,

my best friend
from high school,

is a very successful
Harvard alumni.

Hedge fund guy.

- Oh, wow, I had no idea.

I knew this in ninth grade.

- We remained very close
even though we didn't go

to the same college.

We even started
our own a cappella group,

You've Got Scale.

AOL was big back then.

- What's AOL?

- Oh, my God.

Well, I could spin ya
some stories, Honor.

Whew.

- I would love to hear them.

- Well, one time,
we went to Saint Louis

for an a cappella competition,

and Howie stole a phone
out of the hotel lobby.

- No way.

Wild times, Mr. Calvin.

- We were a crazy bunch
back then.

He did give the phone back,
but that doesn't matter.

But because Howie
and I are so close,

he likes to use
his influence to get

my best and brightest
student a good look

with the admissions people.

It's not a guarantee,
but it is a leg up.

- As tenuous as it is,
this is my best bet.

- That's why I got
some big news for you, Honor.
