Hey, don't touch that dial.
It's time to stop the violence towards women and Take Back the Night.
This is KXCU, and we'll be here with you
for the lectures, the workshops and the rallies all week long.
Every animal species has its own set of dating rules.
But if you break the rules, you better watch out.
Even if you are king of the jungle.
For the giraffe, a nuzzle is a sure sign of affection.
What's this? The koala has its own unique way of saying, "I love you. "
I really hope that David is paying attention to this.
Why? You see this and you think of David?
You have to admit, there's a certain resemblance.
The dance of the diamondback rattler.
Isn't that? Why, yes, it is. It's John Sears.
You know, I would recognize those shifty moves anywhere.
Believe it or not, he's actually been very sweet.
Almost old-fashioned.
Man has evolved mating rituals
as mysterious as any in the animal kingdom.
It's our own way of saying yes or no.
Welcome, all of you.
And thanks for being part of Take Back the Night Week.
Well, we've just seen that birds do it.
And bees do it. And believe me, Charlie Chaplin did it.
But let's go back and ask ourselves why they do it.
We'll start to look at differences between men and women
that I think are at the heart of the war between the sexes we're all fighting.
Doesn't the husband of the lecturer rate a better seat than this?
I didn't wanna make her nervous,
and apparently, my wife really knows how to play a room.
Yeah, Lucinda's a player all right.
So are you coming over to our place for supper around 8?
That's tonight?
Hey, come on, your favorite basketball star's gonna be there.
Shouldn't D'Shawn really be cramming for his midterms about now?
All right, look, I'll give D'Shawn a pep talk.
I'm afraid it's gonna take more than a pep talk, Corey. We are way behind.
We'll double-team him. Whatever it takes to keep him eligible.
The thought of another losing basketball season
is just too much to bear.
You know what I've got here?
- A royal flush? - Five of a kind.
Five phone messages for you, all from a certain Laura Kingman.
All in the last 24 hours.
Yeah, well, I don't wanna talk to her.
If you wanna keep the good times rolling,
throw the girl a bone.
Dude, I don't wanna keep the ball rolling, okay?
I went out with her once and it was a mistake.
Then blow her off so we don't get stuck being your answering machine.
- Or pass her on to someone else. - Yes, experience the gift of giving.
You guys are bent.
Hello?
I'll see if he's in.
Sanders, are you in?
It's Laura.
Why did I take poetry? I am doomed.
Come on, Bren, the exam's only, what, half your grade? Don't worry about it.
Dr. Pettey could have been speaking Martian just now for all I know.
Like Biographia Literaria. What is that?
It is a condition which develops when you spend the entire semester
running around with Stuart Carson.
Dylan, I just never connected with this romantic poetry stuff.
Bren, obviously you do.
You ran off to elope with some guy you'd known for five minutes.
- It was five weeks. - Whatever.
And I'm telling you, it's all just words to me.
What are you saying? You want me to help you study for this exam?
- Is that your way of offering to? - I asked you first.
Yes.
- Speak of the devil. - About time you showed up.
I was telling your friend Laura how you once worked here
for three days on a bet with Brandon.
I don't remember it being that funny.
It was.
- Come on, let's get a booth. - Sure.
- It was nice to meet you. - Pleasure was mine, sweetheart.
I'm gonna kill you later.
I'm sorry about all the phone calls, but I just kept thinking about you.
It's no big deal, really.
Didn't you think about me a little bit too?
Yeah. And, Laura, I have something I need to tell you.
Something good I hope.
Laura, I have a girlfriend. Her name is Celeste,
and I know I should have told you this before we went out...
Hey, come on, come on, try not to take it so hard.
What do you expect?
You pressured me into sleeping with you,
and now you're dumping me.
Look, I know this won't come out the way I mean it,
but couldn't we just be friends?
The other night you didn't wanna just be friends.
There are other guys at the KEG House
I could introduce you to.
I don't want other guys.
Look, I'm sorry.
I wish there was something I could say, something I could do.
You can go to hell.
Well, I have to say, this feels like old times.
Yeah, only it used to be Brenda helping me with my homework
and not vice versa.
Oh, so that means you owe me.
- Honey, you look very nice. - Thank you, Mom.
You know, everyone else is going crazy over midterms
and Brandon is going to his professor's for dinner.
Does he know something that we don't?
I'd rather be studying, believe me.
Jeez, back in our time,
dinner with a professor was a major perk.
- Meant you had arrived. - Still does.
If any of you would like to arrive in my place, please.
Oh, I would love to if I could meet your professor's wife.
Donna said she gave the most amazing talk
to kick off Take Back the Night Week.
It was on the courtship rituals. Kind of a hobby of hers.
Are you two going to the date-rape seminar tomorrow?
Yeah, and have some woman in a crew cut
label me a potential rapist? I don't think so.
- A little male backlash? - What are you talking about?
I mean, they did not even allow men to take part in this thing until last year.
Bro, you should really consider going. There are a lot of babes there.
- Brandon. - Brandon.
Sorry. Good night.
Wow, what a nice surprise.
Isn't it great? It just came in today.
- Hey, what is this made out of? - It's cloth, Sanders.
It's cashmere, and it's 40 percent off with my employee discount.
It's beautiful.
Oh, look, how cute. They can't keep their hands off each other.
You should take a lesson from her.
Hey, what do you guys think, huh?
Well, I think that Celeste has very good taste.
- You need me. - I never said I didn't.
- I'm gonna go to the bathroom. - Wait for me.
Hurry back.
I'd give anything to be a fly on the wall of that bathroom.
Well, that's quite an ambition.
I'll tell you what you'd hear.
Kelly would be saying how tonight she closes the deal.
She was giving me the vibe all through dinner.
Man, why don't you cut her a break? Is that all you think about?
I know you used to have a thing for her, Sanders,
but come on, she's into me now.
Oh, of course.
But does she know about that bunch of girls you have on the side?
Oh, like you told Celeste about what's-her-name?
- Love bunny? - No, I didn't.
But I did tell Laura about Celeste, and believe me,
it would've been an education for both of you to see how hurt she was.
Oh, I get it. You hurt Laura, so I shouldn't sleep with Kelly.
Well, that makes a lot of sense.
Sears, this is not a game. People do get bruised, you know.
Thank you for sharing, Mr. Sensitive.
- Shall we? - Okay.
Malone can take Barkley any day.
That's crazy talk.
Nobody can guard Barkley one-on-one that long.
- I'm not talking about... - Oh, please, no more basketball.
I have done my requisite job time this week.
We went to the Clipper game last night.
You know, I'd think, as an anthropologist,
you'd find the ritual of basketball a fascinating one.
Well, as an anthropologist,
I do find guys running around in gym shorts
an interesting public display.
You should study the game, Lucinda, you'd enjoy it more.
Stop the presses. You're telling somebody to study?
Well, that must be your influence. How is he?
As a teacher?
Difficult, man. Brandon is hard.
Yeah, so I've noticed.
- I think I'll clear the table now. - I'll give you a hand.
I believe you two have some business to discuss.
- D'Shawn. - Here it is. Sociology.
You were flirting with me in front of your husband.
- Was I? - Weren't you?
Good God, Brandon, grow up. It was only flirting, it's meaningless.
And stop whispering.
- Am I acting like a hick here? - Yes, and it's boring.
But you wanna know how you can make it up to me?
I can't wait to hear.
Have you ever done it on a kitchen table?
You're dangerous.
Don't you think it's time we moved on to the main event?
I thought you said you'd wait 50 years for me.
It feels like it's already been that long.
John, I don't wanna do this, okay?
What, have you been talking to Sanders or something?
No, it's not a conspiracy that I don't wanna to sleep with you.
Well, something's going on.
I'm a senior, I'm in KEG House, I've got girls lined up taking numbers
and you make me feel like I've got the plague.
What do you want me to do?
It just doesn't feel right, okay?
Feel right?
Jeez, what's with the Snow White act?
Come on, I was there, I know what you're really about.
Do you think I'm hanging around for your brilliant freshman repartee?
- You haven't changed a bit, have you? - Kelly...
You do not know the first thing about what it's like to care for somebody.
I can't believe I was actually falling for you.
If this is how you fall for someone, you got a lot to learn.
Why don't you find somebody else to teach it to?
Dylan, I did not tell you this
so you would run over there and punch him out.
- Come on, Kelly, somebody's got to. - But not by you, okay?
Whatever. As long as you're okay.
You are okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
I'm better than okay.
That's what I came here to tell you.
You know, if this had happened three years ago,
I probably would have stayed with him even after what he said.
Well, I'm glad it's not three years ago.
You're getting it together.
I hope so.
And if I am starting to get more inner strength or whatever,
I think maybe it's because you're the first guy
who ever took me seriously.
- Kel. - No, you were.
I just can't believe I got so caught up with him.
What happened to us, Dylan?
I don't know.
Must have got lost somewhere.
You sure you don't want me to whack him? Because I will.
No.
I think that, for Sears, having a girl tell him to get lost
is cruel and unusual punishment enough.
- Yeah. - No macho guy stuff, okay?
Okay, no guy stuff.
I will walk you to your car. That's guy stuff.
Has he gotten to the point where he'll wait 50 years yet?
That's the good stuff.
Give me a sec. I'll be right back, okay?
What's your problem, McKay?
No problem. Just my way of saying enough's enough.
Yeah, well, maybe I haven't decided when enough is enough.
And Kelly can make her own decisions, don't you think?
Yeah. She decided you make her sick.
Well, she'll change her mind. They always do.
Not this time.
Well, then you don't have anything to worry about, do you, partner?
Leave her alone. I mean it.
Kelly.
Well, well, well, what an enlightened time we live in.
A KEG man going to a seminar on date rape.
Yeah, right. No, I just came here to find you.
Well, here I am. What's up?
Kelly, I know you're sleeping with John Sears, and I...
I am not. And I'm not going to, either.
Not after last night.
You know he's like the state reptile?
Yes, and it should be stamped on his forehead.
Did you come here to warn me about him?
Yeah. I should have told you sooner, I'm sorry.
Well, it looks like I'm not the only one getting their act together.
Thank you.
Donna.
This is Laura Kingman. We're in Organic Chem together.
Hi. Oh, another genius, huh?
There's Kelly.
Hey, guys.
- Hey, I'm Kelly. - Hi. Laura.
Hello, everyone.
I am Leslie Sumner from Alpha House and the Pan-Hellenic council.
We'll be splitting up into smaller groups
a little later on on the lawn,
but first I would like to introduce Angela Rhodes
from the student senate, just so we're all in sync.
Angela?
Thank you.
Let me ask you a few questions.
How many of you have ever been burglarized?
Raise your hands. In a dorm room or your home.
Does having your purse stolen count?
Sure. Welcome to the club.
And take a look, you're not alone.
Okay. How many of you have ever been held up at gunpoint?
If only Dylan were here to see this.
Okay, I know this is a sensitive question,
but how many of you have ever been a victim of date rape?
High school, it was practically a weekend ritual.
If you look at the hands going up and down,
you realize that date rape is a little different.
See, if someone holds a gun to your head, you know it.
But if you're date raped, maybe you're not sure.
So let's talk about that today.
Hundred and twenty pounds. That's more than I weigh.
Just think, you could grab me in your hands,
right here and here.
Press me up, and press me up.
It would be fun.
Don't you have a Take Back the Night workshop to go to?
I already did my bit for humanity. Today, I am a free woman.
If you're just gonna stand there,
the least you could do is spot my weight for me, huh?
Hey, don't you push down on that.
See how much easier life is when you work as a team?
You just don't give up, do you?
It's a cliché, I know. Younger man, bolder woman.
Now it's gonna be a lot more than a cliché
if your husband finds out what's going on.
Nothing is going on, or we'd both be sweating.
Don't look at me that way.
Admit it, you love the attention.
My boyfriend wants to have sex and I don't,
but I know that if he begged and pleaded and pushed,
that I would probably eventually give in.
And I know that's not rape, but it's not with my consent either.
Does that make any sense?
Yeah.
It was on Halloween a couple of years ago.
At first I felt responsible
because I was looking to meet someone
in a costume that was four sizes too small.
But he threw me down on a bed, and I was yelling no.
If it hadn't been for my friends bursting in, then...
Well, I guess I know what would have happened.
I don't want anybody to take this the wrong way,
but I'm worried that we're assigning women
a very outdated, very passive role here.
Well, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that men rape women,
not the other way around.
I know that, but you know what,
it's like, if I get drunk and I run somebody over,
that's my fault.
But if I get drunk and I decide to have sex with some guy
and wish later I hadn't, we're saying that it's his fault.
Really, Andrea, men do get women drunk.
Excuse me, Phil Donahue,
but women can decide what they will and will not drink.
For a guy who claims to be a feminist, you put me in my place, didn't you?
I was arguing the feminist point of view.
You were trying to make me look stupid.
Okay, I'm sorry. I'll never contradict you again.
I gotta go study.
When did you figure out the guy was a rapist?
Not soon enough.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have gone upstairs with him.
Right, you wouldn't have.
You know, Laura, sometimes it helps to talk to somebody.
I mean, I know most people aren't as lucky as I was.
Oh, no. I'm okay. Really.
And you're probably swamped, so...
No, I'm not.
Do you wanna go somewhere and talk?
Okay.
Had we but world enough and time This coyness, lady, were no crime
Well, a miracle of paradox.
Obviously a meditation on desire.
- Yeah, his desire. - Miss Walsh.
Are you finally joining us after half a semester?
Well, I read it last night, and it's pretty one-sided.
I mean, she keeps on saying no, and he won't take no for an answer.
It's like date rape.
That's ridiculous, come on.
Well, class, she says it's date rape, he says it's not.
It's not even close. I mean, it's not...
The girl in the poem. I mean, she obviously knows
how difficult it is to open your heart to another human being.
That's why she's skittish.
How do you know that one day your girlfriend
is not gonna tell you that she loves you
and then you turn around and she's running around
with some geek from the KEG House?
I think you might be reading too much into the text, Mr. McKay.
He made me have sex with him.
And all I can think about is what I should have done differently.
It's not your fault. It really isn't.
I hate him so much now.
So it's somebody you know?
You know, Laura, it is a crime. You can tell the police.
It happened more than a week ago, and I didn't go to a doctor.
- Nobody would believe me. - Well, I believe you.
And I will stand by you.
- You will? - Yes.
And if you can't go to the police,
then maybe you can stand up at the Take Back the Night rally tomorrow
and tell every girl on this campus exactly who to watch out for.
- No, I don't think I could do that. - Yes, you can.
Come on, there are some people I want you to talk to.
So when you get right down to it, classical sociological theory
is basically ways of stating and restating the obvious.
It's not that obvious, Walsh.
D'Shawn, don't do it, man, or I'm out of here.
DJ, looking to get the ball inside.
See you later, man. I got better things to do.
Don't I know it.
I saw you two at the gym today. Aching to get busy.
What are you talking about?
You and Lucinda.
I saw her moving on you at dinner last night too.
- I don't know what you think you saw. - Oh, man.
That look in her eye said you two are doing the sweet thing.
I'll have to ask the professor if he saw it too.
No, just kidding.
D'Shawn, you'd better start spending a little more time studying
and a lot less time fantasizing if you're gonna pass this test.
That's okay. We both know you're gonna pass it for me.
You're dreaming.
Well, in my dream, you give me a big fat B.
- You said you were kidding, right? - Do I look like I'm kidding?
- How are you doing? - Better, thanks.
Are you sure you don't wanna tell us his name?
Laura, I guarantee you'll feel a whole lot better.
I do wanna tell you. It's just...
He's from KEG House.
That's where it happened.
He poured some vodka or something.
It was the last thing that I wanted.
Anyway, we were making out, which was nice.
I mean, because I really like this guy.
Before, I mean, I liked him before.
Somehow my dress got unbuttoned.
And before I knew it, he had pulled my dress down completely,
and he pushed me back onto the bed.
I tried to get him to stop, but he wouldn't.
And I tried to push him off, but he was too heavy.
I begged him to stop.
Finally, I just said,
"If you're gonna do this, please at least use a condom. "
- Is that date rape? - That's exactly what it is.
But don't be afraid to call it that.
Look, Laura, if this guy is from KEG House,
then we all know other people that he can hurt.
Yeah, you know, guys like that, they don't do this just once.
It's a pattern.
I just need more time.
Look, we have some time before the rally.
I'm sure you'd be ready to say his name by then.
Okay?
Leslie's right, you know. He's just gonna do this again.
Maybe he won't.
If it's who I think it is, you can count on it.
Look, you don't have to protect him anymore.
I know it was John Sears.
I don't even know John.
It was this guy, his name is Steve Sanders.
Steve?
Wait, this has gotta be a mistake.
You heard them. It was rape.
No, but I know him, and he's not like that.
He did everything exactly like I said he did.
Laura, I am begging you.
You cannot go to that march and tell everybody that Steve raped you.
I can't believe you.
You promised that you would stick by me through thick and thin
and now you're trying to tell me that it didn't even happen?
Look, at least let me talk to him first.
You're doing what men have always done
when a woman finds the strength to come forward.
You're as bad as he is.
How could you do that to Laura?
All right, it was sleazy, and I'm sorry, but people get dumped all the time.
No, I mean, how could you rape her?
Rape?
- Did you say rape? - She says rape.
She's out of her mind.
She's not saying that you held a gun to her head or anything.
She's saying that you pushed and pushed until she had no choice.
She's crazy.
She's saying that you plied her with drinks.
I didn't ply her with anything.
Wait a second, how do you even know about this?
- Laura told me. - And you believe her?
Not like this girl could lie, Kelly?
Or maybe she forgot to tell you about her major party personality.
Man, everything out of her mouth was a come on.
She wore this sexed-up lingerie, it was hot.
We got close, we danced over to the bed.
You know how it works.
But the insane thing is, I didn't even think we were gonna go all the way
until she pulls a condom out of her own purse.
What is that? She was into it.
Believe me, she was into it.
Has she been telling this crap to everybody?
She's been vague.
But, Steve, she's gonna name you publicly at the rally.
At the rally? She can't do that.
She can do that, and she's going to. And people are going to believe her.
Do you believe me, Kelly?
- Yes, I do. But... - I'm dead.
You're probably gonna get kicked out of your fraternity.
- And the university. - I mean Celeste.
I'm gonna lose Celeste.
You really outdid yourself this time.
Howard, it's not like I ask for that many favors.
I'm sure Donna can handle
the Take Back the Night broadcast by herself.
- Right? - Yeah, I guess.
If I have to.
Did you hear that? She's thrilled.
Great, he put me on hold.
How come you don't wanna cover the rally?
Because all I've been hearing all week is how men
are just slobbering sex fiends, and I'm tired of it.
Look, David, I know some of the girls may not have that much objectivity,
but what they talk about is real.
Yeah, it's real. Remember that woman who talked to us about having AIDS
in high school? She's dead now. That's real.
I have a father who keeps ruining his life and mine
because he can't keep his pants on, that's real.
David.
I just don't need any more reminders of how horrible things are.
I haven't even told you the worst part yet.
What?
My girlfriend won't sleep with me.
- Brutal. - Yeah.
Laura.
Hey, I didn't do anything.
You're just lucky I'm not pressing criminal charges.
You can't press criminal charges, because there was no rape.
It was sex, that's all it was. Listen to me.
What are you gonna do, throw me down? You wanna beat me up?
You're handing me to a lynch mob because you got dumped?
Lynch mob? What do you think it was like with you?
Oh, was it so horrible?
Is that why you agreed to meet me at the Peach Pit, Laura? Laura!
God.
Hey, any last tips before the midterm?
You seem to have your own ideas.
Well, you were right about that poem.
It's called romantic poetry for a reason.
Well, I don't know, Bren. Maybe it's all a bad joke, you know?
Like Kelly and John Sears. That's a bad joke.
Kelly said she called it quits.
Well, I don't think he'll give up that easy.
Well, I don't believe that I'm about to encourage you
to give Kelly a second chance, but if that's what you want...
Dylan, don't let stupid stuff stand in your way.
Stupid stuff?
Like maybe he apologizes, she goes out with him again?
I think that'd be pretty stupid.
Hey, like you said, that's the risk we take.
I don't know. I don't know if it's worth it.
Dylan, maybe it's different,
but even after you went off with Kelly,
I would have taken you back in a second.
No questions asked.
You know, I bet Kelly will be at the rally tonight.
Well, it looks like you two have come to some agreement.
So, what do you think the poem is about?
I'd say it's personal.
Let's go.
If you need anything else, just...
Well, did you do it?
Of course not.
I just wanted you to hear it from me first.
I know you wouldn't rape anybody.
But did you sleep with her?
I would like to be able to say no, because it really didn't matter to me.
But, yes, I did.
What should I expect from some guy I met on a TV game show?
Hey, come on, you know how much I care about you.
Even that first night, you didn't really wanna be with me.
And ever since then, you've made me feel like I wasn't enough.
Whether it was the way you talked about Kelly or Jill
or whatever other girl you happened to be obsessing on at the moment.
I tried to convince myself,
"He's looking at them, but he really loves me. "
I really do love you.
Not if you slept with somebody else.
Celeste, please don't leave me.
I have to.
Man, I am such an idiot.
Celeste is the first girl who ever really loves me,
and I go and throw it away.
You stray, you pay, my brother.
But telling her the truth was the right thing to do.
- I'm not so sure about that. - It was.
You wanna turn your life around,
you gotta do the right thing, which you did.
So now what are you gonna do?
Go to the rally, I guess.
- Sounds kind of suicidal. - I can't hide. I gotta face them.
Then I get to go shop for a new college.
Well, you're not the only fugitive around here.
You know how you're in deep for sleeping with someone?
I'm in deep for not sleeping with someone.
- What's that mean? - I'll tell you later.
There's something I gotta take care of.
Now? No, no, no. You gotta come to this rally with me, man.
- I need reinforcements for this. - I'll meet you there, okay?
I gotta do this first.
Hey, coz. What's on your mind?
By the way, Bulls have it locked.
Last time I was in here, things got a little confusing,
at least for me.
I don't want there to be any misunderstanding.
Who does?
Straight ahead, then.
I wanna wish you luck on your midterm.
Straight ahead?
I meant it, Walsh.
You take my test, or I'll tell Randall you're doing his wife.
There's nothing going on.
Man, I saw what I saw. Don't insult me.
Okay. Something started.
But when I found out she was married to Randall, it stopped.
No harm, no foul. You wanna tell Randall, go ahead.
The worst he can do is flunk me.
You don't understand, man. I can't do the test.
If you fail, I'll keep working with you, man.
You might miss a few games, but you can still pass the semester.
I can't miss games.
Coach said he'll lose me from the squad.
- You're fooling with my life, man. - I can't take the test for you.
And even if I could, this academic stuff isn't gonna go away.
- You gotta deal with it. - No, you gotta deal with it.
You gotta help me out, man.
What can I do if I can't play ball? Tell me that, huh?
I'm sorry.
I gotta go.
I'll talk. I'll mess you up.
You're buying yourself a world of hurt.
No more silence, no more lies. We will not be victimized.
Wow, this is really quite a spectacle.
I hate to admit it, but I'm honestly moved.
Well, then there's hope yet.
Reunite. Take back the night.
Well, the silence has certainly been broken, huh?
Yeah!
Everybody welcome. At last the night belongs to us.
Yeah!
And the truly amazing thing is that all over the country,
rallies like this are saying that women have lived in fear too long,
and we will not stand for it anymore, okay?
I'm really glad you came.
Well, you know, push comes to shove, I love a parade.
Yeah, and so do John Sears and his clones.
I still wanna deck that guy.
Well, by the time the rally finishes, you might have to wait in line.
- Four women have had an experience that equals the legal definition
- of rape or attempted rape. - Andrea.
Look, I'm sorry about yesterday.
- It's all right. - No, no, it's not.
- I was talking to hear myself talk. - Well, teachers do that sometimes.
So will you forgive me?
Who could say no to that?
We're also victims as individuals.
So let's incite each other tonight.
- Do you see Kelly? - No.
But she must be around here somewhere.
Kind of thought she'd stand by me.
- Guess I can't blame her. - Look.
One courageous act to stop the violence.
One courageous act to take back the night
that has become our enemy.
Violence against women kills love.
And violence is inevitable when you treat people like things.
Okay, it's time to speak out.
And we have a young woman here who would like to do just that.
Let's give her a hand.
I know that date rape is real because it happened to me.
A couple of years ago, a guy I had just met tried to rape me.
And whatever I was wearing, or whatever he thought that implied,
it was not my fault.
Oh, my God, Kelly's siding with Laura.
But there have been other times when I've ended up in someone else's bed,
and even though I regretted it, it was my responsibility.
I didn't say yes, but I didn't say no either.
And blaming someone else doesn't make it their fault.
Anyway, I don't even know the name of the guy who tried to attack me,
but I do know the name of the guy who saved me that night.
And he's here tonight.
His name is Steve Sanders.
Maybe if there were more people out there like Steve,
we wouldn't have to hold a rally to be able to go outside at night.
Thank you.
Now, I believe we have another speaker.
Is she here?
Laura.
Thank you.
- Thank Kelly. - Wait.
I really am sorry.
I knew I wasn't gonna be there for you the day after.
And I knew you wanted more than a one-night stand.
Yeah, well, the funny thing is,
I thought my life would be so much better if I had a guy at KEG House.
Well, you'll have a friend there if you want one.
Laura, you could have buried me tonight.
Yeah, well, I didn't have a choice.
I didn't say yes.
But I never said no.
So you've caused a lot of commotion on campus.
What do you think about the turnout here? I mean, this is incredible.
- So, what do you think of Kelly now? - I think she was great.
But did she actually say she wishes there were more people like Steve?
Oh, what a concept.
There's John Sears.
That guy just does not get the picture, does he?
I had no idea you were such a powerful public speaker.
Well, why don't you add it to the long list of things that you don't know?
Hey, Kelly. Give peace a chance.
- Maybe in another lifetime, huh? - Dylan, do you want a piece of pie?
I'm reaching out to you here, Kelly, come on.
- Want some? - You're a dead man.
Yeah, you want some? Come on.
- I'm gonna hunt you down! - Right here!
Keep your back to the wall, McKay. You're dead!
You are crazy. But thank you.
My pleasure.
Like a moth to a flame.
Can you get off that thing? We got a major problem here.
Oh, no, you've been reading Freud, haven't you?
Will you be serious for once?
D'Shawn saw us here yesterday.
- Yeah, so he saw us. - So he knows.
He says he's gonna tell your husband
unless I take his sociology test for him.
So take the stupid test. It was probably the deal anyway.
What deal?
Brandon, you are so naive.
Why do you think my husband's being so nice to you?
Why do you think the exam's a take-home for God's sake?
I don't know what to say.
Say you'll stop being a baby and start playing your part.
Meaning run around behind your husband's back
and write D'Shawn's test for him?
Well, yeah, it would make things a hell of a lot easier.
Sorry, I kind of like doing things the hard way.
Hey, Brandon.
- You want some advice? - No.
Okay.
What's with the bag?
Since Mom and Dad went out already, will you just tell them I went camping?
- Where to? - I don't know.
Well, I think they'll want more details than that.
- Are you in trouble? - Nothing I can't handle.
You know, I always hear people talk about how they need their space.
Now I know what they mean.
Do you need any help? I mean, I know a lot about running off.
Have I ever told you what a great chick you are?
Not in so many words.
Must be a reason for that.
- Call collect, I'll accept the charges. - All right, I'll keep in touch.
