What about the other one?
The two-legged one?

- I think she's awake.
- Mm.

Yeah, you know,
I'd be awake too

if I just got
kicked out of college.

It would just be so nice

I'm not gonna push.

- Okay.
[clears throat]

- Hi, sweetie.

You got kicked out of college?

- Nice.
- She seemed ready.

- Sweetie.
- Okay.

Do you wanna know
what happened?

- When you're ready
to talk about it.

- I think she's pretty ready
to talk about it.

Yes.
- Okay.

Do you want NYU's version
or mine?

'Causer theirs--it's a little
exaggerated, if you ask me.

- Whatever--
just tell us what happened

and whatever it is,
we'll work through it together.

I mean, it's not like
you've committed a crime.

Oh, no.
- You committed a crime?

- You need the backstory first.

- No, I need a sedative first.

Would you just tell us
what happened, please?

- So my gender studies class--

"Mars and Venus
Through The Lens Between Us"--

my professor was
making the argument

that true equality can only
come from true understanding,

and then he posed a question

as to whether or not
true understanding

between the genders
is truly possible.

- Of course it is.
- Absolutely not.

- Exactly.
Is gender equality possible?

I say no.

So we had to write a paper

based on an experiment
of our choosing

to prove
or disprove our hypothesis.

- Mm, you know how
when you stub your toe

it doesn't hurt right away,

but you know
the pain is coming?

That's this.
What?

- Please just tell us
what happened.

- I... roofied Rishi.

- Good lord.
- You what?

- You roofied Rishi?
- Our Rishi?

- As part of the given
assignment, yes.

I slipped a date rape drug
into Rishi's drink.

- Oh, my God, is he okay?

- Of course.

I mean, he will be, eventually.
- Oh, my God.

- You know, the thing is

that everybody was doing
these dumbass experiments.

I chose a form
of sex discrimination

that's been ignored:
the date rape culture

and how it's used
to control women

with a perpetuation of fear
that men don't experience.

- Well, that's good.
That's very good.

- Yes, but she did--
- Was bad.

Very, very, bad.
- Guys, I'm not stupid.

I did the experiment
in my dorm room

under controlled conditions,

and I had Rishi sign
a consent form.

- Wait, if you had
Rishi's consent,

why did you get kicked out?

- Some antifeminist
angry white guy down the hall

narced me out to the RA,
who had to report it,

and that was it.

The dean said
she had no choice.

I was out.
- "Out" is not an option.

You have to get back in.

- I don't know.

You know,
maybe school isn't for me.

- Really?

Okay, And what's
the other option?

- I don't know.
- Yeah, okay. Exactly.

So call the dean and tell them

we would like to come in
as a family

and talk this over,
and we'll get it figured out.

- Okay, okay.

You want some orange juice?
- Sure.

No, I'll get it myself.
Thank you.

- Mabel's been a very busy bee.

with her roommate?

- That was a misunderstanding

for which she has
totally apologized.

- A fire safety violation

for having a lit candle
in her dorm room.

- Totally my fault.

I packed the candle
in her stuff

when we took her to school.

- Yeah, so that's more
her fault, really.

- Dean Warren,
I'm completely confident

that Mabel is very remorseful.

- Yes, extremely remorseful,
I think we could say.

- You're awfully quiet

for someone
with so much remorse.

- Well, be honest--

"Limited."

I believed wholeheartedly
in the point she was making

about gender inequality,
and it was my true pleasure

to contribute to her work.

- What a guy.

- Well, you're certainly
a good friend.

- So you have
no lingering side effects?

- None.

Well, actually, on occasion--

much less frequently, I--

muffins!

I shout random words,

- In all candor, this young
man's refusal to press charges

is the only reason
you're talking to me

instead of law enforcement.

- Oh, I don't think
there's any reason

to involve law enforcement.

Look, Dean Warren, we can't
change the past, right?

So is there anything we can do
to--to get our daughter

back into your great, great,
and very forgiving school?

- I'm afraid the rubber
has met the road

as far as your daughter
and her time here

at New York University.

- So there's nothing
that she could say or do

to get herself readmitted?

- I'm sorry, but for now,

I think it's best
we part company.

- Oh, that--that actually
wasn't a "no."

- No, that was a no.

Oh, and just so
we're totally clear: no.

- Well, on the bright side,

you guys get all that
tuition money back.

- Ooh, and also a no.

In the event of expulsion,

tuition and all other fees
are forfeited.
