Previously on "Awkward"...

Whenever something important happens,

you're the first person I wanna talk to about it.

How did he know how to find me?

He texted me looking for you.

If he doesn't like the real you,

maybe he isn't worth it.

You always wanted to get into SCU.

Dean Strauss loves your stuff,

and he wants you to come in for an interview.

Luke had gotten me an interview

with the dean of the English department.

SCU had been my dream school, and I was beyond excited

to have a second chance to come here.

Their creative writing program

was one of the best in the country,

and I was trying to remain calm and confident,

which was a challenge

given that they had already rejected me once.

You nervous? You really don't need to be.

No, I'm not vernous.

Nervous. I'm not nervous.

The truth was, my stomach was in my throat

and I had already peed three times.

Dean Strauss already likes your writing,

and you know exactly what to say in the interview.

I think you got a great shot,

and I'll be right outside waiting.

And I think...

I need to make another pit stop.

And you'll know exactly where

all the bathrooms are on campus.

Luke was right. I did have a great shot.

I just had to focus on sounding smart and charming

and ambitious and hungry all at the same time.

I wouldn't let my nerves distract me.

I wouldn't let anything distract me,

not even that girl's amazing gladiator sandal boots.

How did she lace those things up?

Wait. I had to keep it together.

[smooth music]

You belong here.

I'm not so sure about that.

You do realize this is the men's room, right?

[urinal flushes]

Showtime.

Well, so far, the receptionist seemed nice,

and such a comfy office.

I was feeling good about it.

Oh.

[quirky music]

Well, nice to see you again.

Um, I was just looking through your pictures.

It's nice to see you again.

I am Jenna Hamilton,

and I am confident that SCU will provide

the most enriching learning experience possible.

And I am confident

that you are one of the more interesting candidates

I'll be seeing this round.

[light jazzy music]

Oh, isn't that your friend Sadie from the clambake?

I don't want to talk about it.

So what do you want to talk about?

Me? Nothing.

Okay, uh, that's cool.

Cool.

It's just that you said

you wanted to talk to me about something.

Okay, just TBH, it's feeling a little naggy.

Jus... okay, I'm... I'm poor.

I don't even have enough money to afford the lobster Cobb,

which is what I'm dying for... I need that

bourgie-buttered-bottom-feeder fix so bad,

not this gross iceberg wedge.

Hey, we're all a little cash poor sometimes.

It's nothing to be upset about.

I mean, I could have spotted you for the lobster Cobb.

Grammy's got a club account.

Patrick, you don't understand.

I'm not just cash poor.

I'm everything poor.

I don't come from a rich family.

I'm only upper middle class.

Wow.

[laughs] Oh, come on, who cares?

I care.

I've been leading you to believe that I'm like you.

Honestly, when you didn't know where Bora Bora was...

- But it's not important. - But it is.

I haven't been truthful, and I feel guilty,

like you don't even know the real me.

So if you don't want to pursue this...

Oh, I'm pursuing this.

You're awesome.

Who cares if you don't have money?

What do you think credit cards are for?

[sighs]

[quirky music]

Lissa! Check it out.

Ew, that sign-in sheet's so messy.

It's 'cause there's five times as many signatures

as there should be.

Lissa, this is your class.

Members are pissed that they have to be on a waiting list.

- That's good, right? - It's awesome!

We should add more classes to the schedule.

[gasps] PTL, that would be awesome.

If I could get, like, $50 a week more,

it would totally help pay for Styrofoam crosses.

- How is the video doing? - I don't know.

Every time I try to log in, it says server busy.

So annoying.

[gasps] Holy [bleep]!

"Prayer Arms" has over 10,000 views.

What?

Wow.

Too bad we can't charge 'em all admission.

[gasps]

Jakey, scratch those extra classes.

We have more videos to make.

Hey... oh, uh, your bag.

Look, I get it. You're mad.

Not at all.

So what if you didn't show

and we failed the presentation?

And what's so bad about a D average?

I mean, when I decided to take summer classes

after spending the last two semesters busting my ass

while taking care of a baby full-time,

I thought to myself,

"Hey, Lace, don't sweat it.

"Just try to at least get a D."

I know. I screwed up.

And for what it's worth, you were right.

Sully was a bad influence,

and we broke up.

Oh, Matty, that's good.

I really didn't see it going anywhere,

and, hey, maybe when the professor

is calculating my final grade, I can go to her

and just explain that my presentation was ruined

because Sully was a bad influence!

All right, Jenna, I suppose we need

to get down to some more serious stuff.

Can you in, say, 25 words or less

describe some of the more profound neologisms

utilized by James Joyce in "Finnegans Wake"?

Uh, I... I'm trying to recall some of the most

profound ones, but I can't

because I'm not totally clear

on what a neologism is.

Uh, I couldn't get through it without falling asleep.

I shouldn't have said that. I'm sorry.

Are you joking?

Nobody likes "Finnegans Wake."

It is the most pompous, pretentious bag of...

well, let's just say I thought

I'd be in preparations for my wake

by the time I got through it.

No, Jenna, creative writing is about what interests you.

Your writing stands on its own.

Your transcript speaks for itself.

I just like to get a sense of where my students' heads are at.

Cool. Thank you.

So you will need to submit an application, of course.

Do it, and I will see you in September.

Wait. Are you saying...

Just submit the application, Jenna,

and I'll take care of the rest.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I've got some other candidates to terrorize.

Tell me again. How'd he say it?

"Submit the application, and I'll take care of the rest."

Jenna, you killed. This is amazing.

It was amazing.

I'd dreamed of this day for so long.

Best library on campus, by the way.

Ooh, and over here, you have to check out this coffee place.

Lattes like you've never had before.

And here, Jenna Hamilton,

is the home of the world's best Thai peanut salad.

Actually, Luke Mallon,

the home of the world's best Thai peanut salad

is just a few miles south of Bangor, Maine,

in the basement of the student union.

They have Thai food in Maine?

Well, it was a lunch special one week.

Oh, but they had these incredible haddock sandwiches

that I used to be so into before I went vegetarian.

I kind of want to go back not vegetarian

just so I can have one.

And in that moment, I had the saddest thought ever.

I might never go back there.

I might not get to have another haddock sandwich.

I might not see my tiny little dorm

that I shared with Britta, and my friends.

Oh, and if you need something scanned or copied,

this place is, like, 2? cheaper a page.

But I didn't want anything scanned.

I wanted a haddock sandwich.

What was up with that?

[knocking]

Sorry, Ally let me in,

and she was gonna come tell you,

but then she got distracted by QVC.

It's morning; she likes to watch people

order bad jewelry while she works through the shakes.

So listen. I could use a friend.

Ugh, for what. So overrated.

Well, not you. You're okay.

But don't get me started on everyone else.

I mean, why is everyone such a pussy?

Like it's my fault. Why is everyone mad at me?

A lot of that going on right now,

which is why I need a favor.

[quirky music]

Okay, camera's speeding.

Make sure the boom's out of the way.

Lots of energy, everybody!

And... hit it!

- [upbeat music playing] - Praise and raise!

Praise and praise again!

Lift to the Lord!

And lift again!

- [music stops] - Jake, what is this?

Meet me in my office tomorrow morning,

9:00 a.m. sharp.

Oh...

[slow jazzy music]

[chuckles]

What are you doing here?

Just in case the sunscreen isn't enough for that cute face.

Pack your overnight bag.

I'm taking you to Catalina for a long weekend.

OMG, that sounds so fun, but I have to work.

But it's the weekend.

Did you not hear the part

about $12,000 in credit card debt?

Oh, yeah, when you were crying into your iceberg wedge?

- [scoffs] - Definitely heard that part.

- But this is my treat. - You don't get it.

If I'm gonna get myself out of the buttload of debt I'm in,

I'm gonna have to work every weekend

and generate some serious ad sales.

But go. Have fun.

Together we've grown

- Bye. - Bye.

And I can't let you go

Not crazy about the curry?

What?

No, I was just thinking about all the stuff

I'm gonna have to do if I make this move.

Wait. If you make this move?

Wait. Did I say that?

No, what I meant was just that

everything's happening so fast.

I thought you really wanted this.

I did. I mean, I do.

I do... definitely

think this is what I want.

Think?

Think bordering on 100% totally know.

Wow, I can't believe you'd even be on the fence about it.

I kind of went to a lot of trouble.

I pushed Dean Strauss to read your material.

Jenna, am I pushing you?

No, it's just, this is a huge opportunity for me,

and I want to make sure that I'm not

giving up anything I'll regret.

Which seems to be an ongoing concern of yours.

Wow, it was amazing how one intuitive sentence

spoken by Luke could so easily sum up my life.

Look, it's just a big change and a big decision.

Well, at the risk of pushing,

I hope you make it soon, because I would love

for you to be here to share this with me.

I think it would be good for you.

Think?

- [grunts] - [giggles]

Look, I'm sorry.

I know I shouldn't have been filming without permission,

but Lissa's classes fill up constantly, so...

I've been watching you, Rosati.

There have been some major hiccups.

But overall, I like what I see.

- Thanks. - You follow orders.

You know how to spin bull[bleep]

to suck up to the important members.

And I'm gonna be honest with you...

I see a little of me in you.

I'd like to offer you a raise.

I'll take it.

With an increased responsibility

and a small promotion.

Wow.

Rosati, I assume you have a five-year plan.

Oh, yeah, I hope to continue working here.

I was just like you.

I took this job right out of high school,

and I've been here 20 years.

[funky music]

I'm so sorry, Jakey.

I didn't mean to get you fired.

I got promoted.

[squeals and laughs]

This is such great news. Congratulations!

I think this is a sign.

God is super happy with my Atonercise videos!

[giggles] Wait. What's wrong?

I thought this is what you wanted.

Mrs. Parriott,

I am so sorry

about the hand soap in the ladies' powder room.

The vendor stopped producing the lavender rosemary

that you like so much,

and as a token of our sincerest apologies,

I would like to present to you

a $100 gift card which is redeemable

at any of our pro shops and spa experiences.

[cell phone ringing]

- Hey. - Oh, my God, Jenna.

I miss you so much.

I miss you too.

I just heard from housing.

We got upgraded to an off-campus apartment.

Shut the [bleep] up. Really?

With a dishwasher and a kitchen.

And look, my mom got us matching comforters.

She had a bunch of those 20% off coupons,

and we just went crazy.

You are gonna love the stuff I got

for our new place.

Oh, Britta, I love them,

and I can't wait to see them in person.

Okay, what was I doing? Was I lying?

How could I tell my friend that I was probably

never gonna set foot at Wyckoff again?

Britta, there's actually something I need to tell you.

Anytime you're ready, Jenna.

Uh, I got to go, but I'll talk to you later.

Oh, yeah, ok.

Bye.

And finally, as you know,

I am in the process of completing reviews

for all editorial fellows.

I wasn't sure if it was my imagination

or my own guilty conscience,

but it felt like everything Lizzy was saying was directed at me.

These reviews are comprised of ratings

on all materials submitted, whether published or not,

and will be a key factor in determining which,

if any, of you will be asked to return

to Idea Bin for another summer.

That's all.

Oh, she's so over me now that we're a couple.

There's no way I'm getting asked back.

Doesn't matter. You have SCU.

Oh, my God, I'm not getting asked back?

We don't know that.

I'm just saying, with your talent

and the contacts you're gonna make at SCU,

you'll find someplace way better than Idea Bin.

So I can see your face okay

Patrick?

Are you stalking me?

What? No, of course not.

That's... may... yeah, a little bit. Possibly.

- That is so cool. - These are for you.

You know, for working all weekend while I go goof off.

Oh, that is so sweet.

So, um, listen. I've been thinking about stuff.

Oh, okay. It's okay.

I get it. I totally understand.

I mean, I get that you have to work.

Patrick, it's really okay. It's my fault.

I should have been more honest.

I just, like... I really don't want

to have to keep asking you to miss work for me.

So how about winter vacation?

My folks have a chalet in Gstaad.

It's so crazy. Like, Bono lives next door.

It's dope snow and sweet fondue.

Oh, my God, that sounds amaze,

but there's a good chance I'll have to be working then too.

I don't know that you will.

Do you know how long it takes to pay off 12 grand?

Yeah, about 30 seconds.

Let me pay it off for you.

What? No, that's... that's crazy!

- Wh... you would really do that? - Yeah, I would.

Babe, 12K's nothing. It's not worth stressing over.

You can start over with a clean slate.

[quirky music]

Hey, Sadie, do you mind grabbing the dolly?

Or, yeah, I could just grab it myself.

Give me a sec.

"Lamest video I've ever seen.

If God exists, wouldn't he protect you from this crap?"

What are you doing?

Leaving feedback on Lissa's stupid Atonercise video.

What? Why would you do that?

'Cause people on YouTube need honest reviews

to help them decide what to watch... duh.

Don't you think that's a little mean?

What did Lissa ever do to you?

Please, you think Lissa's some angel?

She's a total bitch.

"Bitch" is about the last word I would use to describe Lissa.

Yeah, well, that's because you're not very astute.

Oh, so now you're insulting me?

What, you're gonna be all sensitive now?

Lissa pissed me off,

so she's getting what she deserved.

And Tamara and Sergio are also on my list.

They're lucky I don't comment on them too...

Oh, my God, that's genius.

I'm gonna invent Yelp but for actual people.

You're welcome.

Okay, so big news.

I'm pretty sure I want to go to SCU.

Oh, honey, I know, but they didn't accept you.

No, I'm reapplying.

I think I'm gonna get in.

What? Really? Sweetie, that is amazing.

I'm so proud. Wait. Why?

Because it's SCU.

But you love Wyckoff,

and you're doing so great there...

and Luke is here.

And why does it take me so long to catch on to things?

I need to stop breast-feeding.

My brains are being sucked out through my...

Mom! This is not about Luke.

But isn't this exactly what you told Matty

not to do for you?

Totally different.

I've wanted to go to SCU

since before I even met Luke.

Luke has nothing to do with it.

Honey, he does...

and that's okay.

I'll support you whatever you do,

but know what you're doing.

Call it what it is.

[Bavarian folk music]

[speaking German]

I know we blew it before. Totally my fault.

But since our project was going to be based

on the foods of Germany, my partner and I

have prepared a surprise for the entire class.

- We have? - Frau?

Lein. Fraulein.

Would you all follow us this way, please?

[speaking German]

[both speaking German]

So what are we doing?

It might have been nice if you had given me

a little bit of a heads-up about whatever this...

- [people cheering] - _

[speaking German]

[laughing]

This is awesome.

[chuckles]

I am very impressed.

I hope you don't think for one minute that bribing me

with a food truck will change your grade,

but it will most certainly make me reconsider

rescheduling your formal presentation,

one that you both will show up for

and be prepared for, yes?

- Yes. - Yes!

Thank you. Thank you.

Matty, this is truly inspired.

Thanks.

[sighs]

So why aren't you happier?

No, I'm happy.

I'm just digesting the kraut.

Is this about Jenna?

No! It... absolutely not.

My... feeling for Jenna...

I knew it! Feelings for Jenna.

That's not what I meant to say.

It's just, you know, we get so pissed at each other,

but the feelings never seem to go away.

And mine are still in pretty high gear, I guess.

What, are you gonna tell me to back off again?

Not this time.

I am done interfering

with all things Jenna and Matty.

- Cool. - Cool.

What? Why are you looking at me like that?

God, I can't stand this. Fine. You broke me.

Jenna is thinking of transferring

to SCU to be with Luke,

so if you really have feelings for her,

you better express them really freaking fast.

What?

We never had this conversation.

Nein!

Whoa! Hamilho's transferring.

That so figures.

She's probably already banged

every guy at Wyckoff, so...

Do you ever shut up?

I'm sorry, what?

Lissa's a bitch, Tamara's a jerk,

Sergio's an ass[bleep], and now Jenna.

Do you ever notice how everyone else is the problem?

- Constantly. - You know what, Sadie?

If you meet more than two ass[bleep] in a day,

that ass[bleep] is probably you.

Go [bleep] yourself!

[scoffs]

[cell phone dinging]

[slow rock music]

- - _

I knew there was no way

Matty would understand my situation.

And I really didn't want to debate it with him.

I could spend my whole life second-guessing things,

being afraid to take advantage of opportunities.

Or I could challenge myself.

It was decision time...

_

_

And Matty had just helped me make mine.

[dramatic pop music]

Send message to Matty,

Lissa, Jake, and Tamara.

[bleep] you all.

You think I care if we're friends, question mark.

I would literally rather die than be friends with you.

Ew, no. Too pathetic.

[horn honking]

[bleep]!

Is that language really necessary, Sadie?

[bleep] you, you stupid robotic bitch!

[screams]

[loud crash]
