By the end of first semester,

most college students have found their rhythm

and probably a bunch of bad habits.

But with the coming of second semester,

a new chapter of college emerges--

cuffing season.

That time of year when you're just lookin' to get boo'd up.

♪ Dance with me right now ♪

♪ Just dance with me right now ♪ Hey.

Now, I know what you're thinking,

but I am just happy that

Annika has found someone who makes her happy.

Even being in a relationship through your phone

is nicer than having no one at all.

This way.

It's that time of the school year

when life is just easier when you have a boo.

Later, cutie.

Bye, beautiful.

As for me,

while I have certainly enjoyed the player lifestyle,

I've given it all up for a baddie named Grace.

She's a Phi Psi, sister sorority of the Gammas,

and so cool, she even speaks Dothraki.

♪ Is you ♪

We've been together for a full fortnight,

and we have been playing a lot of "Fortnite."

Man, she is awesome.

Hey, babe. Hey.

I know you have those back-to-back classes today

and it's hard to get to lunch, so I got it for you.

Extra avocado?

That's $2.

I know.

♪ Is you, oh, is you ♪

She's so sweet.

Man, don't you just love her?

No. Nobody does.

Everybody hates Grace.

Wait, you hate Grace?

Oh, yeah. We all hate Grace.

Right, Kiela?

Wait, what are we talking about?

How we all don't like Grace.

Oh, yeah, Tax Break Barbie-- not a fan.

You too?

She's conservative, Junior.

She's not our people. Come on.

Mm. Your girl follows Mitt Romney,

Meghan McCain [gags], Ana Navarro--

Oh, so you stalked Grace.

No, I did recon.

Mm-hmm.

I search everything, okay?

Instagram, Twitter, Venmo, luggage, anything I can find.

How do you think I knew he wore boxers and not briefs?

Uh, can a man not let his junk breathe in peace?

No, I like Grace.

We're in the same lecture class,

she's really smart,

and I think you guys are a good match.

I gotta say, Junior, I'm really happy for you.

Thank you. See? You guys are just being petty.

People can come from opposite sides of political lines

and still find things in common.

Ah, sleeping with the enemy.

Look, at first, when I heard all that,

I wasn't thrilled, either, but the more we talked,

the more I realized,

yeah, we don't agree on certain things,

but that's just a small part of the person she is.

You should invite you-know-who to you-know-what.

Hey, are you talking about my birthday?

I know you're talking about my birthday.

Lauryn told me about the surprise party.

Snitch-ass, every time.

I don't like surprises, okay?

Come on! We'll make a night of it.

It'll be just us.

Oh, I wish I could go, but I'm on RA duty.

[ Sighs ] Damn.

Okay, well, the rest of you people, no plus-ones.

In fact, I'm not even inviting Yaz.

Yeah, we can do that. Mm-hmm.

It's nice of you to think of Lauryn and Zeke,

especially since they have no one to go with anyways.

Right. Yeah. It's fair.

Okay, Zeke, lightning round.

Zeke: All right, uh, cerebellum...

Yeah. ...hippocampus...

Nice. ...hypothalamus...

Good one. ...parietal lobe...

Yes. ...and frontal cortex.

Good job.

And those cards are extra-thick stock

from Kinko's on Fairfax.

[ Laughs ] I don't think that will be on the test,

but you crushed it.

You know that.

[ Chuckles ]

♪

It's a lot easier when you're behind the cards.

Zeke, my roommates could come in any minute.

Shouldn't we just tell them, instead of them finding out?

You're happy, right?

This isn't a Grace situation?

Yes, I'm very happy.

And Grace is the reason I want to be careful.

Our friends are very judgmental.

Facts.

We just need to debut at the right time.

Yeah, but what am I gonna do

when you're there at the party all night

and I have to contain myself?

How about, whenever you want to say something sweet to me,

we just use a code word?

Aaron: Oh, yeah, tonight's itinerary--

Best of five "Super Smash Bros." tourney.

Then I thought maybe we could play

a friendly but competitive game of dominos

and then finish off with a Tyrese movie marathon.

How's that sound?

Very nice. Sounds like last Friday. I'm down.

Oh, also, they, uh, didn't have our regular IPA,

so, yeah, I switched it up for tonight.

Smart. Don't want the routine to get stale.

Friday night wings, my man. You know the drill.

As usual, we will be rating flavor, heat, tenderness,

tenderness and flavor, umami.

Yes, need umami. Got to have umami.

And just, you know, the overall vibe of the wing itself.

Also, reminder, sweet honey sriracha

has been the reigning champ for the past eight weeks.

Eight weeks? Yeah.

Damn, that's two months. Two months.

We've been doing this every Friday for the past two months.

Damn.

Yeah.

Well, look, man, I'm spoken for and happy

with this whole domestic Friday thing we got going,

but I think you need to get out of the house.

I'm worried about you.

I think you need to go find your Zoey or not,

maybe just a fr-- whatever.

You just need to go live a little,

and I don't want to be holding you back.

Bro, you're not holding me back.

What am I supposed to be doing, going out to the club

and spending hundreds of dollars for drinks on girls,

or paying Uber surge prices,

ruining our Saturday morning sweat sessions

'cause I have a hangover?

No, bro, I'd rather be doing this than that.

Okay, well, this-- this-- this is

literally Hot Cheeto dust on a Kirkland Signature wing.

That's true. That's what this is, okay?

So you need to-- you need to go, man.

Live a little.

[ Sighs ]

Maybe I could go.

You're right. You got to go, man.

[ Gasps ] Oh, this girl Jessica that I had matched with

a few weeks ago is back in town on a layover.

She's a flight attendant,

and she wants to visit my cockpit, boy.

All right, now, you see, that's something

only a man who hasn't seen a woman in two months would say.

You cannot say that when you see her, okay?

Yes, I can.

Ha-aah!

Oooh, it's too hot.

It's too hot but very, very good.

Is that sweet honey sriracha?

No, maple chipotle.

♪

So my friends aren't the biggest fans of my girl. I get it.

It took me half a season to like "Succession."

But I know that when they get to know her like I have,

they will love her.

Happy birthday, Zaz. Hey.

Hey. Hi.

I know you said no gifts,

but we got you something pretty special.

I heard you love Dave & Buster's.

Oh, Junior, I'm gonna Dave & bust your ass.

[ Laughs nervously ]

I knew we should have gone with The Cheesecake Factory.

Hey. Uh, what are you doing? Hey.

I thought this was supposed to be just our friends.

Which is why I didn't even invite my girlfriend.

Well, it's not too late. Ride share runs all night.

Look, Zaara, can you please just let Grace stay?

I promise, by the end of the night, we will all be buds.

Fine.

But you have real "Give your stepmom a chance" energy.

Well, I want you to give her a chance.

There's the birthday girl looking fresh.

Anyways, I know you said this was a no-couples party,

but Kwame really wanted to say happy birthday.

Uh, I-I need your help.

I told you, you have to ask me about outfits before you leave.

What? No, it's not about outfits.

I look amazing.

I just-- I need all of our friends to start to feel Grace.

And you are an expert on selling people.

Please just help me sell my girlfriend.

Do you think about the words you say

before they come out of your mouth?

No, no, and I'm stressed.

I-I-- Okay.

Take a breath. [ Exhales deeply ] Okay.

Follow my lead, and none of that dork stuff, okay?

All right, but you're really tying my hands here.

Yo, I'm about to get out of here, you gonna be good?

Oh, yeah. I'll be fine.

You know, I didn't realize how much me time I've been missing.

So I've got a full night planned, don't you worry.

All right, well, don't wait up, my boy. All right.

Later. Peace.

Junior: Sure, maybe Annika and I are co-opting Zaara's birthday

just to get everyone to love Grace.

It's okay.

She'll have another birthday next year.

So, Lauryn, did you know that

both you and Grace are Christian?

Really? Which denomination?

I'm Lutheran.

Oh, I'm Presbyterian.

Nice.

Uh, so, Grace, what's your major?

Political science.

Oh, really? Me too.

No way. That's amazing.

Wow, I'm getting a brain freeze right in my cerebellum.

Oh, yes. M-My cerebellum is on fire.

I'm gonna go grab a glass of water

to rinse out my cerebellum.

Me, as well.

Hmm. Okay.

I think I'm gonna get out of here.

What? No. You can't leave yet.

You haven't even had any cake.

Why don't you just hang out with your friends

and we can talk later?

No, no, you have to stick around.

There's something I actually want you to hear.

Um, hello, everybody, can I get your attention?

You know, the beautiful thing about birthdays

is that they're a great time to reflect on friendships.

Like how, at first, Zaara wanted to murder me,

but now here we are.

Right? Friends.

It's crazy.

It's actually hilarious how things change.

Like, maybe at first you don't like somebody

because they like something you don't like.

But eventually you realize

that a person is more than what they believe in.

How boring would the world be if we all read the same book?

So let's raise a glass to our birthday girl, Zaara.

- Happy birthday! - Happy birthday!

And let's give it up for our newest friend, Grace!

Cheers.

Nailed that shit.

Yeah, I'm outta here.

I wanted to tell you, I really did,

but honestly, this crew just loves

to get into people's business.

Lauryn: It's true.

All we do is talk about everybody else,

and we didn't want you to talk about us

until we knew we were actually ready to be an us. Yeah.

So you guys are fully a thing now?

Yeah. Yeah.

And no more code words.

Yeah, so, if you will excuse us,

we are going to...

Aaron, where you at?

Oh, there you are. Yo.

I saw the takeout over there.

You, uh, got somebody over?

I did not have anyone over. I was eating my feelings.

And there were a lot of feelings.

I told you I didn't have to go out.

It's not that, man. It's not you.

It's just, if I'm being honest, I miss my girlfriend.

It's like we built this thing together,

and now I, uh, feel like my life

is just waiting for it to start up again.

Well, it doesn't have to be that way.

You could build new friendships, build hobbies.

There's all types of stuff you could do.

Yeah, but it just feels like what's the point of that?

What's the point of doing all that while we're in this limbo?

You put all this energy into the relationship and now what?

I-I-I gotta move out to New York or she comes out here

Man, you and Zoey are one of the strongest couples I know.

I mean, y'all are gonna work through this,

and as your boy, I'm here to help.

That's nice to know,

but I've already leaned on you too much, my friend.

Bro... trust.

No, I have. That's how you ended up watching "Fast Five"

and sweating out those serrano wings

when you should have been out there living your life.

Look, I may not have Zoey's cheekbones

or smile or rich Black daddy,

but just like her, I'm here for you, bro.

I know you are, man. I appreciate that.

Now, let's go dig into that takeout.

It looks real good.

I'm a little full, so I'll just-- I'll let you eat.

Then I can tell you all about Jessica.

Oh, Jessica. Yeah.

So it went that well, huh?

No, not at all. She said she was jet-lagged.

So, let me guess, the party went practically perfect

Actually, no.

There was yet another dramatic twist.

Zeke and Lauryn are dating.

Like, sexually?

Yeah, that was pretty much our reaction.

Wow, okay, that is some second semester shit.

Another unlikely couple.

Hey, speaking of, um,

thank you for helping me out with Grace.

Well, I don't know how much I helped,

but you're welcome.

I know that I was acting out of pocket,

but I also know that she's more than

just the party she registers for.

She's a really good person.

She calls her elderly grandmother

on the phone every day.

And she donates to places before there's a crisis.

You really like her, huh?

I do.

But I also know we don't agree on everything,

but who does, you know?

My dad thinks gravy's a soup, and my mom still loves him.

I just want everyone to give her a chance.

Look, people will come around.

But until then, let's say we do a double date?

Really?

Yeah, we can let Kwame and Grace poli sci each other to death,

and we can talk about "The Real Housewives"

or whatever it is important people talk about.

Um, I don't want to talk about "Real Housewives,"

but seriously, thank you.

So maybe all of my friends aren't into Grace,

at least not yet.

We should talk about tonight.

Probably shouldn't have brought a plus-one.

That was my bad.

Yeah, that was your bad.

Yeah.

Hey, where you going?

I'm gonna stay at Yaz's tonight.

What? Why?

I just feel a way about Grace and her politics,

and the fact that you can be with someone who thinks like she does.

Okay, come on.

You do not know how Grace thinks about everything.

But I know how a lot of the people she votes for think.

Like, she can say all the right things,

she can post the right flags on Instagram,

but when she goes to sleep at night,

I feel like she thinks I'm less of a person than she is.

Come on, Zaara. You know me.

You know that I wouldn't be with someone who believes that.

Cool, so you're breaking up with her?

No, I'm-- I'm not.
