00:00Why am I not surprised?
00:18Glad to see entitlement is alive and well. By all means park where you like your majesty.
00:22Sorry I just I thought you might need like a bigger spot.
00:26No Tristan that would be you and your massively oversized eco.
00:29C'mon baby leave reject Riley alone. Everybody knows social leprosy is contagious.
00:46Aren't we supposed to be coasting as seniors?
00:49My financial aid app got rejected so if I actually want to go to college I gotta start saving.
00:54Okay but we have more pressing issues like making sure you have a guy on your arm for prom or even better a full time boyfriend so you can finally cash in that V card.
01:05Yeah like any guy at the school would want to date an untouchable.
01:08It's fine. I have all the romance I need. Rochester, Heathcliff, Mr. Darcy.
01:17That was probably the most action she's gotten ever.
01:20So what you're like a bookworm for hire now?
01:24Wow. I can read.
01:25Sarcasm and desperation. You know you really are like the whole package aren't you?
01:29He's dying.
01:37Honestly I don't know what I ever did to Golden Boy.
01:39He's been like this since the second grade.
01:41He tagged on my pigtails one day at recess and never looked back.
01:44Usually that means a guy likes you.
01:46Yeah well I'm not exactly fond of dumb jocks with poor motor skills so...
02:16So I'm thinking jewel tones for prom.
02:20Emerald green is like so our color.
02:23Yeah.
02:24Yeah.
02:33So next party I'm thinking you definitely make sure you have something to drink other than beer.
02:37I'm thinking like a spiked kombucha might be nice.
02:39Okay. Yeah that sounds good.
02:40Also I'm going shopping tonight so I'm gonna need your car and also your credit card.
02:44If that works for you it works for me.
02:46Yup.
02:47Yup?
02:48Mhm.
02:55Adams.
02:56We need to talk.
02:59I um...
03:01I uh I think I need you to tutor me.
03:06No thank you.
03:07Look I'm not exactly thrilled either but...
03:10If I don't get my English grade up I get kicked off the football team.
03:14So...
03:15Aw.
03:16It's not my problem.
03:18Yeah but you like need the money don't you?
03:20Yeah there's no way in hell I'm tutoring you.
03:22You hate me.
03:23You've been a massive asshole to me since we were seven and you literally used to put kick me signs on my back.
03:28That was messing with you.
03:29That was a joke.
03:30Yeah like I said.
03:31Asshole.
03:32Wait.
03:33What if I paid you double your rate?
03:38Double?
03:41Come on Adams you walk around the school acting like you're smarter than everybody.
03:44But this is your chance to prove it.
03:48Fine.
03:49But we play by my rules understand?
03:51Yeah.
03:52If we're actually gonna do this...
03:55I'm in charge.
03:56So rule number one you do whatever I say.
03:59Rule number two I want half the money up front in cash.
04:03And rule number three...
04:04Nobody finds out about it.
04:07Why not?
04:08Because hanging out with you is kind of like social suicide.
04:11Jesus.
04:12Who are you Regina George?
04:13You're so concerned with your precious reputation.
04:16I'm serious though.
04:18Our little secret.
04:19Deal?
04:20Meet me in the library after practice and don't be late.
04:28Yes ma'am.
04:33I told you Tristan likes you.
04:35First of all shush.
04:36Second of all it's just tutoring.
04:38First comes tutoring, then comes home, then comes marriage.
04:42Right yeah.
04:43He literally told me he wants to keep it a secret because he's embarrassed to be seen with me.
04:47And besides, he only goes for brainless and bitchy.
04:51Look, I don't blame you for liking him.
04:53He's gorgeous and...
04:55I do not like him.
04:57No.
04:58So, what's with the goo-go-eyes, hm?
05:04Okay, fine.
05:05He's very conventionally attractive.
05:07But he's also dumb as rocks and a total dick.
05:11You know, Darcy started off as a dick too.
05:14Just saying.
05:15Prom is in two weeks.
05:17It takes man tens of thousands of years to evolve.
05:19People can surprise you, Riley.
05:21If you give them a chance.
05:24Do you miss?
05:27Do you miss?
05:30No, no, no.
05:32I'm sorry, we cannot eat.
05:35My mom's gonna eat out of the egg.
05:37I started a little bit.
05:38I was gonna eat.
05:39I'm sorry.
05:40I need to eat out of the egg.
05:42I was gonna eat.
05:43I was gonna eat.
05:44Honey, you're up.
05:45I mean, you're up.
05:46I was gonna eat.
05:47I'm gonna eat.
05:48You're up.
05:49I'm leaving.
05:50My mom's gonna eat.
05:51I was gonna eat.
05:52careful items you keep looking at me like that i might think you like what you see
06:12you mean a dumb jock who made me wait 20 minutes for them
06:15okay i'm sorry i'm sorry all right practice ran late but i'm i'm here now
06:21and i promise to be good pretty pleased
06:29if you're late again this is over yes ma'am
06:36okay so if mr darcy was like into elizabeth the whole time why'd need you say something to her
06:47it's dramatic irony we know that darcy has feelings for her but he won't admit them to
06:53her or himself because they belong to different social classes
06:56okay so he thought like if he got into a relationship with her it would
07:01ruin his reputation ding ding ding gold star he's smarter than he looks folks
07:08never get tired of being such a know-it-all never
07:14invigorating but the third edition was better i'm excited for the fifth edition i'm surprised

22:27you
22:29can
22:31go
22:33and
22:34I
22:35if
22:36Imagine if I was, you know, sitting even closer than I am now.
22:58I'd probably put my hand under the desk and rest it on your thigh, like right here.
23:06Warm, still, and just enough pressure so you'd know I'm there.
23:13He'd shoot me a look that says stop, but we'd both know you wouldn't really want to.
23:20He'd try to ignore me, try to focus, but I'd move higher and higher and higher.
23:35Riley. Everything okay?
23:42Everything's fine.
23:45You're flushed. Sure you don't want to go see a nurse? Okay then, back to Mr. Wickham.
23:52Austin is writing about the very slow, sometimes painful process of understanding another human being.
23:59That's what makes the book enduring. Not the setting, not the dresses or the balls, but the emotional honesty of watching two people become worthy of each other.
24:09And it's not just Elizabeth and Darcy. Consider how Austin treats the secondary characters.
24:15Mr. Collins, who is absurdly self-important. Lydia, who is impulsive to the point of danger.
24:21Please, like, don't hold back at all.
24:32You need at least a C-plus on your term paper to pass English. And as your tutor, I know you could use a better word than just good to describe Jane Austen's writing.
24:42Great. Like, really great. Um, I don't know. Masterful.
24:53See? That's much better.
24:57How about a reward for all my hard work?
25:00Hey! Give me my pen back.
25:02This pen. You want it? Yes. I need that pen. You need this pen.
25:07Give me the pen back. Give me the pen back. Give it! It's right here!
25:25We should really get back to your paper. I think it's your turn for a little tutoring.
25:31Oh boob lang, how dark is young guy too?
25:35Uh-huh.
25:39Huh-huh.
25:43Riley was here late.
25:57Yeah, we had a lot of studying to do.
26:01So that's what the kids are calling it these days.
26:06Riley's just my English tutor.
26:08Right.
26:10Well, she seems like a keeper to me.
26:12Okay, well, there's nothing to keep because we're not together.
26:16But you like her, right?
26:19Yeah.
26:21I don't want to talk about this.
26:25Did my dad call?
26:27He called earlier.
26:28He had to extend his business trip by a few days.
26:30All right, of course.
26:31I mean, why did he get me to play football if he's just going to miss every fucking game?
26:36I'm sorry, sweetheart, but Tristan, you need to do what you want, not what other people want you to do.
26:55What the fuck?
27:00Oh, my God.
27:07Girls, help her.
27:16Really, Amanda?
27:17Look, I was just trying to help.
27:19I mean, there's no shame in the game, honey.
27:21It is senior year, and you are still a virgin.
27:25So desperate times.
27:30Girls, let's go.
27:33Thanks.
27:50Oh, no, it was the least I could do.
27:52No, really.
27:53I owe you one.
27:54Well, you never did text me back about tutoring.
27:57Well, we both know you don't need my help with English.
28:01All right, fine.
28:03The drama club is doing Shakespeare in the Park this weekend.
28:06It'll be my date to the show.
28:09Really?
28:12I'd love to.
28:15Awesome.
28:16I'll text you, Riley.
28:17Okay, so he's no Mr. Darcy, but I'd take him to Mr. Bingley like that any day.
28:33I know, but look.
28:35Screw her, okay?
28:36She's an asshole.
28:37Can I, uh, can I ask you something?
28:59That's what I'm here for.
29:00All right about English.
29:04I'm having a party here on the weekend.
29:06You want to come?
29:07Well, what happened to being seen with me was social suicide?
29:12Seriously?
29:14King Tristan doesn't give a shit what people say.
29:17I don't know, maybe I'm...
29:20Maybe I'm taking a page out of your book.
29:30Tristan.
29:35You know, maybe...
29:36What I want to do with you shouldn't be seen in public.
29:42I have plans tomorrow night.
29:44Cancel them.
29:48Tristan.
29:52I promise you won't regret it.
29:54I'm sorry.
30:10Yeah.
30:11No, Riley, there's one hell of a party.
30:23He is not my man.
30:25Really?
30:26Then why are you at Shakespeare in the Park with Chris?
30:29Girl, just admit it.
30:31You're down bad.
30:32I am not.
30:34Embrace it, Riley.
30:36It's a good thing, okay?
30:38No.
30:38If he wants you, are we still on?
30:42Oh, my God, I'm so mad at you right now.
30:45Like, I just stopped asking.
30:47I couldn't ask for the Park.
30:49No, no, no.
30:50I'm going to go.
30:52Ryan, let's dance.
30:54I'm going to get some air.
31:06You know what I found you here?
31:09Great party.
31:10Then, um, why do I only want to be here with you?
31:15We're all your loyal subjects.
31:18I mean, friends.
31:20I don't give a shit.
31:20Fast learner.
31:35You know what I'm saying.
