00:00:02,300 --> 00:00:04,100
GOOD MORNING***

3
00:00:04,100 --> 00:00:06,500
 <i>GOSSIP GIRL HERE--</i>
 <i>YOUR ONE AND ONLY SOURCE</i>

4
00:00:06,500 --> 00:00:09,800
 <i>INTO THE SCANDALOUS LIVES</i>
 <i>OF MANHATTAN'S ELITE.</i>

5
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:11,900
 <i>TOP STORY ON MY HOME PAGE--</i>

6
00:00:11,900 --> 00:00:15,600
 <i>SERENA VAN DER WOODSEN,</i>
 <i>EVERYBODY'S FAVORITE "IT" GIRL</i>

7
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,100
 <i>HAS JUST RETURNED</i>
 <i>FROM A MYSTERIOUS ABSENCE</i>

8
00:00:18,100 --> 00:00:19,700
 <i>AND WAS LEARNING THE HARD WAY</i>

9
00:00:19,700 --> 00:00:22,100
 <i>THAT YOU CAN NEVER</i>
 <i>GO HOME AGAIN.</i>
(cell phone rings)

10
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:28,100
YOU'LL NEVER BELIEVE
WHAT'S ON "GOSSIP GIRL."
SOMEONE SAW SERENA GETTING OFF

11
00:00:28,100 --> 00:00:31,100
SERENA?
SERENA'S AT SCHOOL.

12
00:00:31,100 --> 00:00:33,500
 <i>WHY'D SHE RETURN?</i>
LET ME GUESS--
YOU TOLD EVERYONE

13
00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:35,900
ERIC'S JUST VISITING GRANDPA
IN RHODE ISLAND.

14
00:00:35,900 --> 00:00:37,800
YOUR AUNT CAROL IN MIAMI.
HE TRIES TO TAKE HIS OWN LIFE,

15
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,300
AND YOU'RE WORRIED IT'S GONNA
COST YOU MOM OF THE YEAR?

16
00:00:41,300 --> 00:00:44,100
MUST BE A LOT OF RUMORS
WHY YOU'RE BACK.
NONE OF THEM MENTION YOU.

17
00:00:44,100 --> 00:00:47,600
NATE'S GONNA WAIT FOR SERENA.
HE CAN GET IN LINE
BEHIND THAT GUY.

18
00:00:48,500 --> 00:00:50,500
I DON'T NEED SOME NEW BOY
INFLUENCING HER,

19
00:00:50,500 --> 00:00:54,000
DISTRACTING HER
FROM HER NEEDS.
A KID LIKE DAN IS

20
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,400
GUESS WHO'S DAD IS COOL?

21
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,500
IT'S A TRICK QUESTION.
YEAH,
'CAUSE IT CAN'T BE OURS.

22
00:00:57,500 --> 00:00:59,500
YOU'RE GOING OUT WITH SERENA,
AND I'M GOING

23
00:00:59,500 --> 00:01:03,100
TO KISS ON THE LIPS. WHO SAID
THIS FAMILY WASN'T COOL?

24
00:01:03,100 --> 00:01:04,500
I THOUGHT EVERYTHING
WAS GOOD BETWEEN US.

25
00:01:04,500 --> 00:01:08,300
IT WAS... BEFORE I FOUND OUT
YOU HAD SEX WITH MY BOYFRIEND.

26
00:01:08,300 --> 00:01:10,800
GREAT,
JUST IN TIME FOR BRUNCH.

27
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,900
I TOLD HER TO STAY AWAY.

28
00:01:12,900 --> 00:01:15,400
I'M NOT SNEAKING AROUND
WITH YOU.
JUST TO TALK.

29
00:01:16,700 --> 00:01:18,800
YOU SAID YOU'D NEVER
SPEAK TO HER AGAIN.

30
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,600
SO YOU SLEPT WITH
YOUR BEST FRIEND'S BOYFRIEND.
IS THAT TRUE?

31
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,500
THEN SHE RAN AWAY
AND LIED ABOUT IT.

32
00:01:24,500 --> 00:01:31,000
POOR DANIEL--SO LITTLE TIME,
SO MANY SLUTS TO DEFEND.

33
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,100
THIS WORLD,
IT'S--IT'S CRAZY.

34
00:01:33,100 --> 00:01:34,800
AND YOU'RE A PART OF IT.

35
00:01:35,500 --> 00:01:37,300
BLAIR, HOW CAN I FIX THIS?

36
00:01:37,300 --> 00:01:41,100
YOU DON'T, SERENA.
YOU JUST STAY AWAY.

37
00:01:41,100 --> 00:01:42,700
 <i>BUT NOW THAT SERENA IS BACK,</i>

38
00:01:42,700 --> 00:01:45,300
 <i>WILL THE UPPER EAST SIDE</i>
 <i>EVER BE THE SAME?</i>

39
00:01:45,300 --> 00:01:46,800
 <i>IT TAKES TWO TANGLE,</i>

40
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,300
 <i>AND GIRLS LIKE THESE</i>
 <i>DON'T GO DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT.</i>

41
00:01:51,700 --> 00:01:53,100
 <i>AND WHO AM I?</i>

42
00:01:53,100 --> 00:01:55,600
 <i>THAT'S A SECRET</i>
 <i>I'LL NEVER TELL.</i>

43
00:01:56,700 --> 00:01:58,100
 <i>YOU KNOW YOU LOVE ME.</i>

44
00:01:58,100 --> 00:02:02,200
 <i>X.O.X.O., GOSSIP GIRL.</i>

45
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,200
(girls choir) * G-L-A-M 

46
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,600
 <i>THERE'S PLENTY OF UPSIDE</i>

47
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,700
 <i>TO BEING THE SPAWN</i>
 <i>OF THE FABULOUSLY WEALTHY.</i>

48
00:02:10,700 --> 00:02:12,500
 <i>BUT THE DOWNSIDE?</i>

49
00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:14,200
 <i>SUPER SUCCESSFUL PARENTS</i>

50
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,100
 <i>EXCEPT NOTHING LESS</i>
 <i>FROM THEIR OFFSPRING.</i>

51
00:02:17,100 --> 00:02:21,100
 <i>AND WHEN IT COMES TO COLLEGE,</i>
 <i>THAT MEANS THE IVIES.</i>

52
00:02:21,100 --> 00:02:23,200
 <i>IT'S MORE THAN JUST</i>
 <i>GETTING INTO COLLEGE.</i>

53
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,400
 <i>IT'S SETTING A COURSE</i>
 <i>FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.</i>

54
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,700
 <i>AND FOR THOSE FEW</i>
 <i>WHO AREN'T LEGACIES,</i>

55
00:02:28,700 --> 00:02:30,500
 <i>THE PRESSURES ARE NO LESS.</i>

56
00:02:30,700 --> 00:02:34,300
 <i>WHEN PARENTS HAVE SACRIFICED</i>
 <i>FOR THEIR CHILDREN'S FUTURES,</i>

57
00:02:34,300 --> 00:02:36,500
 <i>WHAT KID WOULD</i>
 <i>WANNA LET THEM DOWN?</i>

(woman) THANK YOU, LADIES.

69
00:03:15,700 --> 00:03:18,700
GOOD MORNING, STUDENTS.
I ASK ALL OF YOU

70
00:03:18,700 --> 00:03:21,400
TO SHOW A LITTLE SYMPATHY
FOR OUR JUNIOR CLASS.

71
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,800
THEY ARE ALMOST THROUGH
WITH IVY WEEK.

72
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,800
AS IS
OUR LONG-STANDING TRADITION,

73
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,600
THE CONSTANCE BILLARD GIRLS

74
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,300
WILL BE IN CHARGE
OF FRIDAY NIGHT'S MIXER,

75
00:03:31,300 --> 00:03:32,800
AND THE ST. JUDE'S BOYS

76
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,900
WILL PROVIDE THE USHERS FOR
THE VISITING REPRESENTATIVES.

77
00:03:35,900 --> 00:03:37,400
(woman) FOR THOSE OF YOU
WHO DREAM

78
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,500
OF ATTENDING
AN IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL,

79
00:03:39,500 --> 00:03:43,300
THIS MIXER IS THE MOST IMPORTANT
EVENT OF YOUR LIFE.

80
00:03:43,300 --> 00:03:44,700
BUT NO PRESSURE.
(both chuckle)

81
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,400
 <i>AH, IT'S NOT THAT BAD.</i>
 <i>IT LOOKS LIKE I SHAVED</i>
 <i>WITH A WOOD CHIPPER.</i>

82
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,500
  <i>I WAS GOING</i>
 <i>WITH MORE OF A CHAIN SAW.</i>
 <i>NOT HELPING.</i>

83
00:03:52,500 --> 00:03:56,500
 <i>NOT TRYING TO.</i>
 <i>HEY, LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE--</i>
 <i>YOU'RE NOT A HEMOPHILIAC.</i>

84
00:03:56,500 --> 00:03:58,800
 <i>OTHERWISE, YOU'D--</i>
 <i>YOU'D BE IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM.</i>

85
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,900
 <i>AND THAT'S HELPING?</i>
 <i>MM, NOT REALLY.</i>

86
00:04:00,900 --> 00:04:02,900
 <i>(Rufus) DARTMOUTH'S</i>
 <i>GONNA LOVE YOU.</i>
 <i>YEAH, I GOTTA BELIEVE</i>

87
00:04:02,900 --> 00:04:05,700
 <i>BEING ABLE TO SHAVE IS</i>
 <i>A PREREQUISITE FOR ATTENDING.</i>

88
00:04:05,700 --> 00:04:07,600
 <i>NO ONE IS BETTER QUALIFIED,</i>

89
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,000
 <i>NO ONE IS SMARTER,</i>
 <i>MORE WELL-ROUNDED...</i>
 <i>OR WOUNDED?</i>

90
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,900
 <i>I HAVE A TRUST FUND</i>
 <i>TO FALL BACK ON, DAD.</i>

91
00:04:12,900 --> 00:04:15,400
 <i>YOU KNOW, ALL I HAVE</i>
 <i>IS WHAT'S UP HERE.</i>
 <i>OH.</i>

92
00:04:15,500 --> 00:04:17,600
 <i>(Rufus) WELL, THAT IS</i>
 <i>THE MOST IMPORTANT THING.</i>

93
00:04:17,700 --> 00:04:19,200
 <i>COLLEGE IS</i>
 <i>ABOUT ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE,</i>

94
00:04:19,900 --> 00:04:21,500
 <i>NOT YOUR STOCK PORTFOLIO.</i>

95
00:04:21,500 --> 00:04:23,500
 <i>BESIDES, YOU'RE GONNA DO GREAT</i>
 <i>IN YOUR INTERVIEW.</i>

96
00:04:23,500 --> 00:04:24,300
 <i>YOU TAKE AFTER YOUR DAD</i>
 <i>THAT WAY.</i>

97
00:04:24,300 --> 00:04:25,600
 <i>SPOTLIGHT DOESN'T PHASE US.</i>

98
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,500
 <i>OOH, YOU BETTER HOPE THERE'S</i>
 <i>NOT A SPOTLIGHT INVOLVED.</i>

99
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,200
 <i>I'M YOUR SISTER.</i>
 <i>IT'S WHAT I DO.</i>

100
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,000
 <i>NOT WHEN</i>
 <i>IT'S ABOUT DARTMOUTH.</i>

101
00:04:37,100 --> 00:04:41,200
(woman) REMEMBER, STUDENTS...
NATHANIEL,
A LITTLE WAKE AND BA

102
00:04:41,300 --> 00:04:42,700
WE HAVE
OUR INTERVIEWS TODAY.

103
00:04:42,700 --> 00:04:44,300
MY POINT EXACTLY.

104
00:04:44,300 --> 00:04:45,400
(whispers)
I HAVE MY 1-HITTER.

105
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:46,500
(woman) ...BUT UNDERCLASSMEN

106
00:04:46,500 --> 00:04:49,000
SHOULD CONSIDER THIS WEEK
A DRESS REHEARSAL.

107
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,200
YOU ARE NOT ONLY REPRESENTING
YOURSELVES THIS WEEK,

108
00:04:52,300 --> 00:04:56,400
BUT GENERATIONS FROM OUR SCHOOL
AND YOUR FAMILIES.

109
00:05:01,300 --> 00:05:03,200
 <i>TRY NOT TO CUT ME OFF</i>
 <i>NEXT TIME.</i>

110
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,400
 <i>YOU ALMOST KNOCKED ME</i>
 <i>OVER THE SIDE OF THE BENCH.</i>

111
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,300
 <i>I DIDN'T CUT YOU OFF.</i>
 <i>(laughs)</i>

112
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,400
 <i>I DIDN'T MEAN TO.</i>
 <i>YOU WIN FAIR AND SQUARE,</i>

113
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,500
 <i>AND NOTHING</i>
 <i>COULD MAKE ME PROUDER...</i>

114
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,100
 <i>TILL YOU GET IN</i>
 <i>THE OLD ALMA MATER, THAT IS.</i>
 <i>DAD, WE TALKED ABOUT THIS,</i>

115
00:05:16,100 --> 00:05:18,800
 <i>ABOUT ME KEEPING MY OPTIONS</i>
 <i>OPEN, LOOKING OUT WEST.</i>
 <i>YEAH, OF COURSE,</i>

116
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:19,800
 <i>BUT LET'S GET SERIOUS HERE.</i>

117
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,500
 <i>SOMEONE WITH YOUR GRADES</i>
 <i>WANTS TO GET INTO DARTMOUTH,</i>

118
00:05:21,500 --> 00:05:23,300
 <i>YOU NEED TO APPEAR</i>
 <i>TO BE WORKING FOR IT.</i>
 <i>DA I--</i>

119
00:05:23,300 --> 00:05:27,700
 <i>USHERING THE REP</i>
 <i>IS A GOOD STEP.</i>
 <i>HOW COME EVERY TIME</i>

120
00:05:27,700 --> 00:05:29,400
 <i>YOU ACT LIKE IT'S A JOKE?</i>
 <i>NATE, THERE'S A PLAN HERE.</i>

121
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,100
 <i>MAYBE I WANT</i>
 <i>TO MAKE MY OWN PLAN.</i>
 <i>LISTEN, YOUR MOTHER AND I</i>

122
00:05:32,100 --> 00:05:34,800
 <i>SO YOU CAN JUST MAKE THINGS UP</i>
 <i>AS YOU GO ALONG.</i>

123
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,600
 <i>DARTMOUTH,</i>
 <i>LAW SCHOOL, BLAIR.</i>

124
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,900
 <i>SOON YOU'RE GONNA HAVE</i>
 <i>EVERYTHING.</i>

125
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,400
 <i>LISTEN, I'M LATE FOR WORK.</i>
 <i>NAIL THAT INTERVIEW TODAY.</i>

126
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,200
 <i>GO, GREEN!</i>

127
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,900
(woman) AS PART
OF IVY WEEK'S FESTIVITIES,

128
00:05:51,900 --> 00:05:53,700
AT TOMORROW NIGHT'S MIXER,

129
00:05:53,700 --> 00:05:56,700
BLAIR WALDORF

130
00:05:56,700 --> 00:06:00,100
HER COMMUNITY OUTREACH COMMITTEE
WILL HONOR THIS YEAR.

131
00:06:00,100 --> 00:06:02,800
HAVE YOU SEEN SERENA?
I WONDER WHERE SHE IS.

132
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,200
AND YOU KNOW WHAT <i>I</i> WONDER?

133
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,600
HOW I'M SUPPOSED
TO HEAR ANYTHING ABOUT YALE

134
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,700
WITH ALL THIS TALK
ABOUT SERENA.

135
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,400
 <i>DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN DAD GAVE</i>
 <i>ME MY FIRST YALE SWEATSHIRT?</i>

136
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:16,700
 <i>I DON'T THINK</i>
 <i>ANY PIECE OF CLOTHING</i>

137
00:06:16,700 --> 00:06:18,700
 <i>HAS EVER FIT ME MORE PERFECTLY,</i>

138
00:06:18,700 --> 00:06:21,500
 <i>NOT TO MENTION HOW ADORABLE</i>
 <i>I FOUND THAT BULLDOG.</i>

139
00:06:21,500 --> 00:06:23,900
 <i>REMEMBER WHEN I ASKED YOU</i>
 <i>IF I COULD GET A BULLDOG?</i>

140
00:06:23,900 --> 00:06:25,800
 <i>GOOD CALL, BY THE WAY,</i>
 <i>SAYING NO.</i>

141
00:06:26,300 --> 00:06:28,800
 <i>AND NOW THE BIG DAY</i>
 <i>IS FINALLY HERE.</i>

142
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,200
 <i>SOON NATE AND I</i>
 <i>WILL BE AWAY AT COLLEGE.</i>

143
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,700
 <i>HIM COMING DOWN TO YALE,</i>
 <i>ME GOING UP TO DARTMOUTH.</i>

144
00:06:33,700 --> 00:06:35,900
 <i>DAD FLYING IN</i>
 <i>FOR THE PRINCETON GAME.</i>

145
00:06:36,500 --> 00:06:39,500
 <i>I HOPE IT DOESN'T MAKE YOU</i>
 <i>FEEL OLD WATCHING ME GROW UP.</i>

146
00:06:39,500 --> 00:06:41,400
 <i>EAT UP, MISS BLAIR.</i>

147
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,500
 <i>YOUR MOM WOULD WANT YOU</i>
 <i>TO HAVE A GOOD BREAKFAST.</i>

148
00:06:51,500 --> 00:06:53,900
(woman) AND NOW
HEADMASTER PRESCOTT...

149
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,800
SO SERENA'S REALLY NOT HERE?

150
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,900
THAT'S WHAT I SAID.
WHEN YOU WEREN'T
SUPPOSED TO BE TALKING.

151
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,800
(man) THANK YOU, MISS TEDROW.

152
00:07:05,700 --> 00:07:08,100
 <i>SERENA, COME ON. HURRY UP.</i>
 <i>YOU'RE GONNA BE LATE.</i>

153
00:07:08,100 --> 00:07:10,300
 <i>I AM! AND I KNOW.</i>

154
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,500
 <i>YOU KNOW, YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE</i>
 <i>STAYED AT YOUR BROTHER'S AGAIN.</i>

155
00:07:12,500 --> 00:07:14,900
 <i>I MEAN, WHY SLEEP THERE? IT'S</i>
 <i>NOT LIKE HE CAN EVEN SEE YOU.</i>

156
00:07:14,900 --> 00:07:16,300
 <i>HIS EYES ARE CLOSED.</i>

157
00:07:16,300 --> 00:07:18,700
 <i>DO YOU HAVE ONE MATERNAL BONE</i>
 <i>IN YOUR ENTIRE BODY?</i>

158
00:07:18,700 --> 00:07:22,300
U  <i>SE, YONEED YOUR REST,</i>
 <i>OKAY? IT'S IVY WEEK.</i>

159
00:07:22,300 --> 00:07:24,500
 <i>I KNOW, AND IF I CAN GET OUT</i>
 <i>OF THIS HOTEL ROOM,</i>

160
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,000
 <i>IT'S MY SOLE MISSION IN LIFE</i>
 <i>TO IMPRESS THAT BROWN REP.</i>

161
00:07:27,100 --> 00:07:30,000
 <i>WELL, I AM SO THRILLED TO HEAR</i>
 <i>YOU SAY THAT'S STILL YOUR PLAN,</i>

162
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:30,400
 <i>BECAUSE, I MEAN,</i>

163
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,100
 <i>I KNOW IT'S SOMETHING</i>
 <i>WE'VE ALWAYS TALKED ABOUT,</i>

164
00:07:32,100 --> 00:07:34,400
 <i>BUT HONESTLY,</i>
 <i>SINCE YOU'VE BEEN BACK,</i>

165
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,200
 <i>I'VE, UH, WONDERED IF YOUR MIND</i>
 <i>WAS EVEN ON COLLEGE.</i>

166
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,800
 <i>LOOK, MOM, I'VE HAD MY MIND</i>
 <i>ON A LOT OF THINGS.</i>

167
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,800
 <i>BUT SINCE RECENT EVENTS,</i>

168
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,800
 <i>GOING AWAY TO COLLEGE</i>
 <i>SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD.</i>

169
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,500
 <i>HOW, UM, HOW DID YOU</i>
 <i>LEAVE THINGS WITH DAN?</i>

170
00:07:46,500 --> 00:07:48,400
 <i>I DON'T WANT</i>
 <i>TO TALK ABOUT IT.</i>

171
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,800
 <i>WHAT'S GOING ON</i>
 <i>WITH YOU AND BLAIR?</i>
 <i>MOM, PLEASE!</i>

172
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,000
 <i>IT'S O--</i>
 <i>LOOK, ALL I WANNA DO</i>

173
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,700
 <i>IS JUST FINISH HIGH SCHOOL</i>
 <i>IN PEACE</i>

174
00:07:55,700 --> 00:07:56,800
 <i>AND GO AWAY TO A STATE</i>

175
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,000
 <i>WITH LOTS OF PEOPLE</i>
 <i>WHO DON'T KNOW WHO I AM</i>

176
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,500
 <i>AND JUST START OVER, OKAY?</i>

177
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,300
 <i>TAKE A CAB. DON'T WALK.</i>

178
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:14,600
(under breath) OH, GOD.

179
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,600
(normal voice) GOD,
PLEASE DON'T TELL ME IT'S OVER.

180
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,800
WHAT? YOU WERE THERE.
I-I WOULD SAY IT'S PRETTY OVER.

181
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,800
I MEANT THE ASSEMBLY.

182
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,900
OH, RIGHT. NO, YEAH,
NO, IT JUST ENDED NOW.

183
00:08:26,900 --> 00:08:28,300
DAMN IT.

184
00:08:28,300 --> 00:08:30,800
ANYWAY, GOOD LUCK.

185
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:34,600
YEAH, YOU, TOO.

186
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,100
OH, TOO BAD YOU MISSED
THE ASSEMBLY.

187
00:08:37,100 --> 00:08:38,400
NOT THAT IT MATTERS.

188
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,900
BROWN DOESN'T OFFER
DEGREES IN SLUT.

189
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:42,900
 <i>SPOTTED--</i>

190
00:08:42,900 --> 00:08:47,400
 <i>S. NOT SO FASHIONABLY LATE</i>
 <i>AND DRESSED DOWN BY B.</i>

191
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,200
 <i>GAME ON, LADIES.</i>
(whistle blows)

192
00:08:49,900 --> 00:08:52,000
(will.i.am) * BABY, WHERE'D YOU
GET YOUR BODY FROM? *

193
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,000
* TELL ME
WHERE'D YOU GET YOUR BODY FROM *

194
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:55,900
* BABY, WHERE'D YOU GET
YOUR BODY FROM? *

195
00:08:55,900 --> 00:08:58,400
* TELL ME
WHERE'D YOU GET YOUR BODY FROM *

196
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:03,600
(woman) * I GOT IT FROM MY MAMA,
I GOT IT FROM MY MAMA *

197
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,000
LOOK, I MADE A MISTAKE
WITH NATE, OKAY?

198
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,700
BUT THEN YOUAB

199
00:09:06,700 --> 00:09:09,200
WE DON'T HAVE TO BE FRIENDS,
BUT--OH!
(whistle blows)

200
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,200
UGH!
WHAT'S UP, WALDORF?

201
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,300
SORRY. IT SLIPPED.

202
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,100
I'M FINE.

203
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,900
I REALLY WANT TO BELIEVE
THAT WAS AN ACCIDENT.
THEN YOU MUST BE DELUSIONAL.

204
00:09:20,900 --> 00:09:22,400
* WHERE'D YOU GET
YOUR BODY FROM *

205
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:27,000
* BABY, WHERE'D YOU GET
YOUR BODY FROM? *
(blows whistle)

206
00:09:27,300 --> 00:09:27,800
THANK YOU.

207
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,500
* I GOT THIS FROM MY MAMA,
ALL THIS STUFF RIGHT HERE *

208
00:09:31,500 --> 00:09:32,800
OOH!
(whistle blows)

209
00:09:33,700 --> 00:09:35,900
RUNNING OUT OF COLORS HERE,
BLAIR.

210
00:09:36,300 --> 00:09:38,600
AND I'M RUNNING OUT
OF PATIENCE. ENOUGH, OKAY?

211
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,800
IT'S ENOUGH
WHEN I SAY IT'S ENOUGH.

212
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,400
* LADIES 

213
00:09:42,900 --> 00:09:46,100
* L-L-LADIES 

214
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:48,700
OH!
(whistle blows)

215
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:51,300
(Blair groans) GOD!

216
00:09:51,900 --> 00:09:53,000
(whistle blows)
(man) GIRLS, BREAK IT UP!

217
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,600
GET OFF OF ME!
IS THAT ENOUGH YET?!

218
00:09:55,900 --> 00:09:59,400
* SHE PRETTY LIKE HER MAMA,
AND IF HER MAMA REAL UGLY *

219
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,000
SO WE'VE ACTUALLY
COME TO PHYSICAL BLOWS, HUH?

220
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:03,800
TRUCE?

221
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,500
OW! MY LEG!

222
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,300
(man) SERENA,
YOU'RE OUT OF HERE.
(Kati) OH, MY GOSH.

223
00:10:10,300 --> 00:10:12,500
OW. OW.
I HOPE IT'S BROKEN.

224
00:10:12,500 --> 00:10:14,100
 <i>HEY, UPPER EAST SIDERS.</i>

225
00:10:14,100 --> 00:10:16,500
 <i>WE HEAR THAT WORLD WAR III</i>
 <i>JUST BROKE OUT,</i>

226
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,200
 <i>AND IT'S WEARING KNEESOCKS.</i>

227
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,200
 <i>CHOOSE YOUR SIDE</i>
 <i>OR RUN AND HIDE.</i>

228
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,000
 <i>WE HAVE A FEELING</i>
 <i>THIS ONE'S TO THE DEATH.</i>

229
00:10:23,500 --> 00:10:27,400
BE THE DARTMOUTH USHER?
WELL, I'VE GIVEN THIS
A LOT OF THOUGHT,

230
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,900
AND I THINK I CAN ANSWER
YOUR QUESTION IN THREE PARTS.

231
00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:32,100
AND I'D LIKE TO START
WITH THE THIRD PART FIRST,

232
00:10:32,100 --> 00:10:35,900
IF IT'S COOL, UNLESS, UH,
THAT WOULD BE CONFUSING.

233
00:10:35,900 --> 00:10:37,800
IN WHICH CASE, I CAN START
AT THE BEGINNING. (chuckles)

234
00:10:38,500 --> 00:10:42,000
UM, THE DARTMOUTH
"PRINCIPLES OF COMMUNITY"

235
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,300
HIGHLIGHT INTEGRITY,

236
00:10:44,300 --> 00:10:47,100
RESPONSIBILITY
AND CONSIDERATION.

237
00:10:47,300 --> 00:10:51,300
UH, WELL, FROM ST. JUDE'S,
I'VE LEARNED INTEGRITY.

238
00:10:51,300 --> 00:10:54,600
FROM BEING AN OLDER BROTHER,
I HAVE LEARNED RESPONSIBILITY,

239
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,300
AND FROM MY PARENTS,

240
00:10:56,300 --> 00:10:59,800
WHO HAVE SACRIFICED EVERYTHING
TO SEND ME TO THIS SCHOOL,

241
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,100
I'VE LEARNED CONSIDERATION.

242
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,500
IT REALLY COMES DOWN
TO ONE THING--

243
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,100
DARTMOUTH IS MY DREAM,

244
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,200
AND I'VE NEVER ASKED DARTMOUTH,
BUT...

245
00:11:11,500 --> 00:11:13,500
I THINK
IT'S BEEN DREAMING OF ME.

246
00:11:15,700 --> 00:11:17,100
THAT--THAT WAS A JOKE,

247
00:11:17,100 --> 00:11:20,300
OR AN ATTEMPT AT ONE.

248
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,200
NEXT QUESTION.

249
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,200
(man) YOU ARE THE IDEAL
DARTMOUTH CANDIDATE.

250
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:26,300
THANK YOU, SIR.

251
00:11:26,500 --> 00:11:28,700
AND IT WOULD BE AN HONOR
TO ATTEND DARTMOUTH.

252
00:11:28,700 --> 00:11:31,600
I'VE GROWN UP HEARING
ALL ABOUT IT FROM MY FATHER.

253
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,000
I'M JUST NOT SURE
IT'S MY FIRST CHOICE,

254
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,200
AND IF THERE'S ONLY
ONE USHER POSITION AVAILABLE,

255
00:11:39,900 --> 00:11:43,100
I'M SURE THERE'S SOMEONE
WHO WANTS IT MORE THAN ME.

256
00:11:43,700 --> 00:11:48,500
WHY SHOULD I BE CHOSEN
TO BE AN USHER?

257
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,200
I'M CHUCK BASS.

258
00:12:08,100 --> 00:12:10,100
(Mr. Tedrow) EXCUSE ME.

259
00:12:12,900 --> 00:12:14,600
HEY.

260
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,400
YOU GET THE ONE
YOU WANTED?

261
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,300
UH...

262
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,300
NO. NO, ACTUALLY,
YOU DID...

263
00:12:25,100 --> 00:12:29,600
WHICH MAKES TOTAL SENSE
BECAUSE I'M SECOND IN OUR CLASS,

264
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,400
AND YOU'RE SOMEWHERE AROUND--

265
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,800
WHAT, I DON'T KNOW,
UH, LAST?

266
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,000
NO HARD FEELINGS, HUH?

267
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,100
WHY SHOULD THERE BE?
I MEAN, HOW MANY LIBRARIES

268
00:12:37,100 --> 00:12:39,600
HAS YOUR DAD HAD TO ENDOW
TO GET YOU THIS SPOT?

269
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:43,000
YOU'VE EARNED IT.
LOOK, MAN, YOU DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT MY FAMILY.

270
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:44,600
I'M SORRY.
YOU'RE RIGHT. YOU'RE RIGHT.

271
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,800
I'M SURE J.L. HALL
WILL BE VERY IMPRESSED

272
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,300
WITH YOUR PASSION
FOR THE DARTMOUTH EXPERIENCE.

273
00:12:50,300 --> 00:12:52,900
WHO THE HELL IS J.L. HALL?
HE'S THE IVY REP.

274
00:12:52,900 --> 00:12:54,600
YOU MIGHT WANT
TO PICK UP HIS BOOK

275
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,900
IF YOU WANT ANYTHING
TO TALK ABOUT.

276
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:00,700
"THE PETTING ZOO"--

277
00:13:00,700 --> 00:13:02,500
THAT'S THE NAME
OF HIS BOOK.

278
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,100
WHOA. ANGRY GUY, HUH?

279
00:13:10,900 --> 00:13:13,500
SHORT FUSE.
I'M TRYING TO WORK ON THAT.

280
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:15,700
WELL, LET ME KNOW
HOW THAT GOES FOR YOU.

281
00:13:16,300 --> 00:13:18,400
YEAH, I'LL--
I'LL KEEP YOU POSTED.

282
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,500
IT'S A TOUGH WEEK.
NOT FOR ME, APPARENTLY.

283
00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:23,900
OH, YOU GOT
AN USHER POSITION?
NO, I DIDN'T.

284
00:13:23,900 --> 00:13:27,400
UH, IN AN IRONIC THOUGH
NOT TOTALLY UNEXPECTED TWIST,

285
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,000
NATE GOT THE ONE I WANTED.

286
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,000
I'M SORRY.

287
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,200
YEAH, WELL, I GUESS THAT'S LIFE
WHEN YOU'RE NOT A LEGACY.

288
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,700
WELL, HEY, JUST 'CAUSE
YOU'RE NOT AN USHER

289
00:13:36,700 --> 00:13:38,500
DOESN'T MEAN YOU'RE NOT
GONNA GET INTO AN IVY.

290
00:13:38,500 --> 00:13:41,300
YEAH? WH--UH, WHERE'D
YOUR PARENTS GO TO SCHOOL?

291
00:13:41,300 --> 00:13:43,200
HARVARD AND BROWN.

292
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,900
THAT'S--THAT'S ALL
I'M SAYING.

293
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,900
I CAN'T BELIEVE
SERENA DID THIS.
YEAH, SUCH A CHEAP SHOT.

294
00:14:01,300 --> 00:14:02,000
(beep)
FINALLY.

295
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,300
HELLO TO YOU, TOO. I HEARD ABOUT
THE FIELD HOCKEY THROW DOWN.

296
00:14:05,300 --> 00:14:07,000
ALL THOSE MOUTH GUARDS
AND SHORT SKIRTS--

297
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,700
I HOPE SOMEBODY FILMED IT.

298
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:13,000
(scoffs) YOU'RE HEINOUS.
Which is probably
why you called.

299
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:14,200
YOU KNOW ME WELL.

300
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,400
WOMEN LIKE TO PRETEND THEY'RE
COMPLICATED. I KNOW BETTER.

301
00:14:17,900 --> 00:14:21,100
MY LEG'S NUMB NOW.
HOW ABOUT A HEATING PAD?

302
00:14:21,100 --> 00:14:22,500
SURE.
OKAY.

303
00:14:28,300 --> 00:14:30,000
SERENA CAME HOME
FOR A REASON.

304
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:31,900
ONE CAN ONLY GUESS.
I'M DONE GUESSING.

305
00:14:31,900 --> 00:14:34,000
I WANT ANSWERS,
AND NO ONE LIKES TO BE

306
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,400
ON THE GROUND FLOOR OF A SCANDAL
LIKE CHUCK BASS.
I AM A BITCH WHEN I WANNA BE.

307
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,000
OPPORTUNITY TO CAUSE
SOME TROUBLE, UNCOVER A SECRET?

308
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,000
TAKE "YES" FOR AN ANSWER.

309
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:51,900
LET'S TURN BACK TO SCHOOL.

310
00:14:51,900 --> 00:14:54,100
I LEFT SOMETHING IMPORTANT
BEHIND.

311
00:15:02,700 --> 00:15:04,700
OH, DANNY BOY,
HOW WAS YOUR DAY?

312
00:15:04,700 --> 00:15:07,700
HE'S ABOUT TO HYPE DINNER.
'CAUSE NO MATTER
HOW GOOD IT WAS,

313
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,700
IT'S ABOUT TO GET
A LOT BETTER.

314
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,800
I'VE OUTDONE MYSELF
WITH THE BOLOGNESE.

315
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,700
(man) * TRAY TABLES UP 

316
00:15:16,700 --> 00:15:19,300
* TIME FOR THE TEST 

317
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,300
* WE'RE GOING DOWN 

318
00:15:24,300 --> 00:15:26,900
* WE DID OUR BEST 

319
00:15:29,900 --> 00:15:32,200
(muffled) SORRY ABOUT
THE MELODRAMATIC ENTRANCE.

320
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:33,500
YOU DIDN'T GET IT?

321
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,600
NO, I DIDN'T GET IT.

322
00:15:41,500 --> 00:15:43,800
AND THAT I DO NOT GET.

323
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:45,100
THEY...

324
00:15:45,100 --> 00:15:47,500
THEY GAVE IT TO NATE...

325
00:15:47,500 --> 00:15:50,000
(muffled) ARCHIBALD!

326
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:52,800
OH!

327
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,300
* BAD THINGS DON'T HAPPEN 

328
00:15:55,300 --> 00:15:58,900
LAST YEAR, UH, I BELIEVE
HE HAD AN ORIGINAL THOUGHT.

329
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:00,500
IT DIED OF LONELINESS.

330
00:16:00,500 --> 00:16:03,200
* THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING 

331
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:04,900
I'M SORRY.

332
00:16:04,900 --> 00:16:05,900
 <i>YOU'RE</i> SORRY?

333
00:16:05,900 --> 00:16:08,200
YEAH, I KNOW HOW MUCH
YOU AND MOM SACRIFICED.

334
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,300
THE WHOLE REASON YOU SEND US
TO A SCHOOL LIKE THIS

335
00:16:10,300 --> 00:16:13,300
IS SO WE CAN GO
TO A COLLEGE OF OUR CHOICE.

336
00:16:13,300 --> 00:16:14,900
WHAT IF THAT'S ALL
FOR NOTHING?

337
00:16:14,900 --> 00:16:17,800
IT'S <i>NOT,</i> OKAY?

338
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:19,100
IT'S NOT.

339
00:16:20,100 --> 00:16:22,100
SO YOU DON'T GET
TO BE THE USHER

340
00:16:22,100 --> 00:16:23,200
OF SOME WHATEVER PARTY.

341
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:27,400
DAD, CAN I JUST, UM,
STEW ALONE FOR AWHILE?

342
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,700
* AND THEN I STILL CARE 

343
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,100
WE'RE HUMPHREYS, DAD.

344
00:16:45,100 --> 00:16:47,100
NOT EXACTLY ROYALTY UPTOWN.

345
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:49,800
ARE YOU OKAY WITH THAT?

346
00:16:51,100 --> 00:16:52,300
NO,

347
00:16:53,100 --> 00:16:54,800
BUT I'M USED TO IT.

348
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,700
THIS IS WAY TOO GOOD.
(dialing cell phone)

349
00:17:39,100 --> 00:17:41,200
MOM, HOW'S PARIS?

350
00:17:41,300 --> 00:17:42,900
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BELIEVE

351
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,700
WHERE I FOUND
OUR LITTLE PRINCESS.

352
00:17:44,700 --> 00:17:45,700
REALLY?

353
00:17:54,700 --> 00:17:54,900
(mouse button clicking)
(Chuck) ADMIT IT.

354
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,900
EVEN FOR ME, THIS WAS GOOD.
IF YOU WEREN'T SUCH A PERV,

355
00:17:57,900 --> 00:18:00,400
I'M SURE THE C.I.A.
WOULD HIRE YOU IN A SECOND.

356
00:18:00,500 --> 00:18:03,600
DEFENDING MY COUNTRY--THERE'S
A FUTURE I NEVER IMAGINED.

357
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,000
WITH GOOD REASON.
WHAT IS SHE DOING THERE?

358
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:08,200
WELL, WHAT'S ANYONE
DOING THERE?

359
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,200
IT'S A FACILITY
FOR THE DISTURBED OR ADDICTED.

360
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:12,500
YOU MUST HAVE
YOUR OWN WING.

361
00:18:12,900 --> 00:18:16,600
YOU DON'T GET NEARLY
ENOUGH CREDIT FOR YOUR WIT.

362
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,700
SO THE QUESTION IS,
WHAT DO YOU DO NOW?

363
00:18:19,700 --> 00:18:21,000
WELL, I WAS THINKING...

364
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,500
TOTAL SOCIAL DESTRUCTION.

365
00:18:24,500 --> 00:18:27,400
AND HERE I THOUGHT
YOU WERE GETTING SOFT.

366
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,300
SO THIS IS YOUR BED,
HUH?

367
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:31,900
LEAVING <i>NOW.</i>

368
00:18:32,500 --> 00:18:36,000
YOU CAN REPAY ME
ANOTHER TIME.

369
00:18:42,500 --> 00:18:45,300
I'VE BEEN IN THESE SESSIONS
EVERY DAY FOR THE LAST WEEK,

370
00:18:45,300 --> 00:18:48,500
BUT NOTHING IS GOING TO CHANGE
UNLESS SHE STOPS HIDING HIM HERE

371
00:18:48,500 --> 00:18:50,500
AND LETS HIM
HAVE HIS LIFE BACK.

372
00:18:50,500 --> 00:18:52,500
THIS IS NOT CALLED HIDING,
SERENA.

373
00:18:52,500 --> 00:18:54,100
IT'S CALLED RECOVERY.

374
00:18:54,100 --> 00:18:57,100
TELLING EVERYONE HE'S STAYING
WITH AUNT CAROL IN MIAMI?

375
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,700
HE'S NOT READY.
HE'S NOT, OR YOU'RE NOT?

376
00:18:59,700 --> 00:19:02,400
OKAY, LET'S TAKE
A DEEP BREATH.

377
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,700
IT'S GOOD TO SEE
HONEST CONVERSATION.

378
00:19:04,900 --> 00:19:07,100
WHAT DOES SHE KNOW
ABOUT HONESTY?
SERENA.

379
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,600
BUT I REALLY THINK A DECISION
LIKE THIS INCLUDES ERIC AS WELL.

380
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,700
OH, YOU MEAN <i>I</i> HAVE
A SAY IN THIS? WOW. THANKS.

381
00:19:13,700 --> 00:19:16,000
ERIC, OF COURSE.
WE'RE HERE FOR YOU.

382
00:19:16,100 --> 00:19:18,800
LOOK, IF YOU'RE READY
TO LEAVE, YOU TELL US, OKAY?

383
00:19:19,700 --> 00:19:21,800
NO MATTER WHAT MOM SAYS.

384
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,900
I WOULD REALLY LIKE
TO GET OUT OF HERE...

385
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,400
OH, NO.

386
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,300
BUT MAYBE I'M NOT READY YET.

387
00:19:37,700 --> 00:19:39,500
HEY, WHAT ABOUT
FOR A FEW HOURS?

388
00:19:39,500 --> 00:19:41,500
YOU CAN BE MY DATE
TO THE IVY WEEK PARTY TONIGHT.

389
00:19:41,500 --> 00:19:44,900
SERENA, THAT PARTY IS
AN IMPORTANT EVENT FOR YOU.

390
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,600
WELL, HE'LL BE AROUND
PEOPLE HE KNOWS.

391
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,300
IT'LL BE FUN, COMFORTABLE.

392
00:19:48,500 --> 00:19:51,300
UH, ACTUALLY,
THAT SOUNDS GREAT.
(woman) WELL, THERE WE GO.

393
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:55,600
COMPROMISE.
THAT WASN'T SO HARD, WAS IT?

394
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,500
YOU KNOW WHAT?
I HAVE TO GO,

395
00:19:58,500 --> 00:20:01,500
HELP THEM SET UP
FOR TONIGHT AT THE SCHOOL.

396
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,000
IT'S MY JOB AS BOTH
PARENT COMMITTEE CHAIR

397
00:20:04,100 --> 00:20:06,000
AND RESPONSIBLE MOTHER.

398
00:20:12,500 --> 00:20:14,400
IT'LL BE GREAT, OKAY?

399
00:20:20,500 --> 00:20:22,400
HI. HOW ARE YOU?
GOOD.

400
00:20:22,500 --> 00:20:23,900
RUFUS HUMPHREY.
MM-HMM.

401
00:20:23,900 --> 00:20:26,300
UH, MY KID, DAN,
GOES TO ST. JUDE'S,

402
00:20:26,300 --> 00:20:28,500
AND HE REALLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN
SELECTED AS DARTMOUTH'S USHER.

403
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,100
MAYBE THERE WAS A MIX-UP,

404
00:20:30,100 --> 00:20:31,700
SOME KIND OF A GLITCH
IN THE SYSTEM?

405
00:20:31,700 --> 00:20:32,800
I'D LIKE TO BELIEVE THAT

406
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,800
BECAUSE I LIKE TO BELIEVE
THE BEST IN PEOPLE.
I'M SORRY, MR. HUMPHREY.

407
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:37,200
THE USHER POSITIONS
HAVE BEEN FILLED.

408
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:42,400
THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO.
UH, IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE?
ANY OTHER POSITIONS?

409
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,800
UH, YOU'LL HAVE TO DISCUSS THIS
WITH OUR COMMITTEE CHAIRWOMAN.

410
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:47,700
SURE, PERFECT. I'D LOVE TO.
WHERE CAN I FIND HER?

411
00:20:47,700 --> 00:20:50,400
I'M NOT SURE.
SHE MUST BE RUNNING LATE. I...

412
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,600
OH, THERE SHE IS NOW.

413
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,700
WHY AM I NOT SURPRISED?

414
00:20:57,700 --> 00:21:01,000
LUCKY FOR YOU,
SHE SEEMS TO BE IN A GOOD MOOD.

415
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,900
UNTIL SHE SEES ME.

416
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:04,900
RUFUS.

417
00:21:04,900 --> 00:21:07,700
TOLD YA.
EXCUSE ME.

418
00:21:07,900 --> 00:21:10,600
YOU GOT A MINUTE, LIL?
NOT FOR YOU.

419
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:22,800
YOU'RE IN.

420
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,000
WHAT?
THE IVY WEEK PARTY TONIGHT.

421
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,000
YOUR NAME WILL BE
ON THE PROGRAM AND EVERYTHING.

422
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,700
YOU GOT ME
THE DARTMOUTH SPOT?
I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT, DAD.

423
00:21:30,700 --> 00:21:32,900
(scoffs) NO, YOU DIDN'T,
AND NO, I DIDN'T.

424
00:21:32,900 --> 00:21:35,800
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT
THE REFRESHMENT COMMITTEE?
WELL, THERE IS--THERE IS

425
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,100
NOT UNTIL NOW.
OH, GOD.

426
00:21:38,100 --> 00:21:42,400
WHAT? EVERYBODY GETS THIRSTY.
IT'S REALLY A POSITION OF POWER.

427
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,000
HOW DID YOU SECURE ME
THIS PROMINENT

428
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,800
AND SIMULTANEOUSLY EMBARRASSING
POSITION?
BY OFFERING

429
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,500
SERVING SNACKS?

430
00:21:50,300 --> 00:21:53,300
I'M THE HEAD
OF THE ENTERTAINMENT COMMITTEE.

431
00:21:54,900 --> 00:21:56,000
(chuckles) A-ANOTHER COMMITTEE
THAT DIDN'T EXIST

432
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,300
UNTIL YOU LEFT
THE HOUSE TODAY.

433
00:21:57,300 --> 00:22:00,100
WAY TO GO, DAD. WAIT.
SO WHO'S THE ENTERTAINMENT?

434
00:22:00,100 --> 00:22:02,100
UH, SINCE IT WAS
SUCH SHORT NOTICE,

435
00:22:02,100 --> 00:22:04,800
THE ONLY PERSON
I COULD GET WAS MYSELF.

436
00:22:04,900 --> 00:22:08,600
KIND OF A STAID AFFAIR FOR
EARLY '90s POSTPUNK MATH ROCK,

437
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:09,199
DON'T YOU THINK?

438
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,199
I'M BRINGING
A COUPLE OF THE GUYS.

439
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,700
IT'LL BE RUFUS UNPLUGGED.
NEED A ROADIE?

440
00:22:13,700 --> 00:22:14,838
??

441
00:22:15,042 --> 00:22:18,200
AND WE CAN JUST MAKE THIS
A FULL-FLEDGED HUMPHREY AFFAIR?

442
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,200
LOOK, I DID THE BEST I COULD.

443
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,700
AT LEAST YOU GET TO OFFICIALLY
BE A PART OF THIS THING.

444
00:22:23,700 --> 00:22:25,800
YOU CAN TALK
TO THAT AUTHOR YOU LOVE,

445
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,400
ASK HIM ANYTHING YOU WANT.
LIKE HIS, UH, PREFERENCE
FOR SOFT DRINKS?

446
00:22:33,300 --> 00:22:35,000
IF YOU GET AT ALL ANXIOUS,
SWEETIE,

447
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:36,800
 IF YOU FEEL LIGHT-HEADED
OR PANICKY--

448
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:37,499
I'LL BE FINE, MOM.

449
00:22:37,500 --> 00:22:39,100
ALL I HAVE TO DO
IS BE NORMAL.

450
00:22:40,900 --> 00:22:42,799
OR AT LEAST <i>ACT</i> NORMAL.

451
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:44,200
WORKS FOR MOM.

452
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,400
DO YOU SEE THE YALE REP?

453
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:08,700
I THOUGHT YOU WANTED
TO GO TO BROWN,

454
00:23:08,700 --> 00:23:11,400
AND BLAIR WANTED
TO GO TO YALE.

455
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,800
YEAH, I KNOW.

456
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,100
MM.

457
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,900
MY FATHER WOULD NEVER FORGIVE ME
IF I DIDN'T INTRODUCE MYSELF.

458
00:23:23,900 --> 00:23:25,900
HE SAYS THAT YOU TWO
USED TO DO CREW TOGETHER.

459
00:23:25,900 --> 00:23:27,200
CREW?

460
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,900
OH, HI.
I'M SERENA VAN DER WOODSEN.

461
00:23:30,100 --> 00:23:32,200
BLAIR, I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE
INTERESTED IN DOING CREW.

462
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,000
I'M NOT. I WAS JUST SAYING
THAT THERE'S A FAMILY CONNECTION

463
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:36,000
BECAUSE OF MY FATHER--
IN FACT, I DIDN'T KNOW

464
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,100
YOU WERE INTERESTED
IN ATHLETICS AT ALL.

465
00:23:38,100 --> 00:23:40,200
WELL, ESPECIALLY ONES WHERE
YOU MIGHT GET YOUR HAIR WET.

466
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,500
SHE'S REALLY MORE
OF THE INDOORS TYPE OF GIRL.

467
00:23:44,100 --> 00:23:46,599
OH, MY GOODNESS.
YOUR GLASS IS ALMOST EMPTY.

468
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,100
LET'S GET YOU A DRINK.
UH, NO, I'LL TAKE HIM.

469
00:23:49,100 --> 00:23:52,400
OH, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
SO TELL ME ABOUT YALE.

470
00:23:58,900 --> 00:24:00,899
CAN YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN

471
00:24:00,900 --> 00:24:02,399
HOW SERENA'S
COMMANDEERING THE YALE REP

472
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,400
WHILE YOU'RE SUPPOSED
TO BE HIS USHER?

473
00:24:04,700 --> 00:24:06,200
I SWITCHED.

474
00:24:08,300 --> 00:24:10,600
I'M TRYING TO GET
INTO PRINCETON.

475
00:24:11,300 --> 00:24:13,500
OH, DON'T YOUR LA PERLAS
IN A BUNCH.

476
00:24:13,500 --> 00:24:16,399
LOOK WHO'S ARRIVED--
DR. OSTROFF.

477
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:17,800
BLAIR, DR. DONALD OSTROFF.

478
00:24:17,900 --> 00:24:20,200
 <i>INTERESTING CHOICE OF GUEST, B.</i>

479
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,500
SUCH A PLEASURE. I'VE HEARD
S-SUCH WONDERFUL THINGS...

480
00:24:22,500 --> 00:24:24,900
 <i>COINCIDENCE? I THINK NOT.</i>

481
00:24:28,300 --> 00:24:29,400
I LIKED YOUR BOOK.

482
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,100
OH, THANKS. WHAT DID YOU THINK
OF THE EPILOGUE?

483
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:35,600
SOME PEOPLE REALLY LOVE IT.

484
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,300
"THE NEW YORK TIMES"
CALLED IT A "CHEAP COP-OUT."

485
00:24:38,500 --> 00:24:39,999
WARNER BROS.
IS MAKING A MOVIE.

486
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,600
I THINK THEY'RE GONNA
CHANGE THE END.

487
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,200
WELL, I CAN SEE
HOW THE ENDING

488
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,100
MIGHT NOT SEEM ALL THAT...
COMMERCIAL.

489
00:24:48,300 --> 00:24:49,400
UH...

490
00:24:49,900 --> 00:24:51,700
WOULD YOU LIKE
SOMETHING TO DRINK?

491
00:24:51,700 --> 00:24:53,600
LILY, HOW ARE YOU?

492
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,100
OH, BART, HELLO.
HOW ARE YOU?

493
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,100
HEY, ERIC.

494
00:24:59,100 --> 00:25:00,699
HOW'S, UH, MIAMI?

495
00:25:00,700 --> 00:25:03,600
IT WAS GOOD, THANKS.

496
00:25:03,900 --> 00:25:05,100
YOU KNOW, GO, MARLINS.

497
00:25:06,700 --> 00:25:08,800
WOULD YOU EXCUSE ME, PLEASE?

498
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,800
SO THE NEUROSCIENCE PROJECT
I'M WORKING ON

499
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,600
INVOLVES THE CELLULAR
SIGNALING PATHWAY

500
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,500
OF NEURONAL
NITRIC OXIDE SYNTHASE.

501
00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:18,100
IT'S INITIATED WHEN
GLUTAMATE BINDS TO N.M.D.A.R...

502
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,400
HI. YOU'RE ERIC, RIGHT?

503
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,600

00:25:30,100 --> 00:25:33,100
ERIC, GOOD TO SEE YOU.
YOU ENJOY MIAMI?

507
00:25:33,100 --> 00:25:36,300
UH, YEAH.
S-SAVE THE MANATEES.

508
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:40,699
MANATEES?

509
00:25:40,700 --> 00:25:43,500
IT'S A LONG STORY.
I'VE GOT TIME.

510
00:25:43,900 --> 00:25:45,799
IT'S A LITTLE DARK AND...

511
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:47,200
I CAN HANDLE IT.

512
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,100
(Dan) YOU WANNA
GO TO YALE THEN?

513
00:25:50,300 --> 00:25:53,400
NO, BROWN. IT'S JUST
THIS THING WITH BLAIR.

514
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,399
OH, YEAH. YEAH, I GET IT.
I MEAN, SINCE YOU DON'T HAVE

515
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,099
TO ACTUALLY WORRY
ABOUT GETTING INTO COLLEGE,

516
00:25:58,100 --> 00:26:01,600
WHY NOT MAKE THE ENTIRE EVENING
ABOUT SCREWING OVER BLAIR?

517
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:05,900
NO, THANKS.

518
00:26:07,100 --> 00:26:08,500
HEY.

519
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,600
WAIT, YOU'RE SERIOUSLY
NOT GONNA TALK TO ME?

520
00:26:14,500 --> 00:26:16,900
LIKE, LITERALLY NOT SPEAK?

521
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,300
HEY.

522
00:26:20,500 --> 00:26:22,400
OH, MUCH BETTER.

523
00:26:23,500 --> 00:26:25,200
THANKS, GUYS.

524
00:26:28,900 --> 00:26:32,700
SO, UM, WHAT'S HE LIKE?

525
00:26:32,700 --> 00:26:35,099
LIKE A DARTMOUTH
ENGLISH LIT PROFESSOR

526
00:26:35,100 --> 00:26:37,600
I HAVE NOTHING
IN COMMON WITH.
MM.

527
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:38,400
GUESS I COULD TELL HIM

528
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:42,700
HOW EVERYTHING I HAVE
I GOT BECAUSE I'M AN ARCHIBALD.

529
00:26:45,900 --> 00:26:48,100
YOU SHOULD MENTION DR. SEUSS.

530
00:26:48,300 --> 00:26:50,800
THEODOR GEISEL IS HIS REAL NAME.
HE WENT TO DARTMOUTH.

531
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,000
UH, HALL SAID HE GOT THE IDEA
FOR "THE PETTING ZOO"

532
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,200
FROM "THE LORAX."
THE WHAT?

533
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,400
UM, YOU KNOW WHAT?
NEVER MIND.

534
00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:59,200
JUST--JUST MENTION
HOW HIS PROSE STYLE

535
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,199
IS INFLUENCED
BY EARLY FAULKNER.

536
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:02,900
YOU'LL BE ALL RIGHT.

537
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,200
UH, OR NOT.

538
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,800
I WAS ACTUALLY GONNA
GET SOME FRESH AIR.

539
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,200
HOW ABOUT YOU
TAKE THESE OVER TO HIM?

540
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,200
ALL RIGHT.

541
00:27:18,300 --> 00:27:20,600
YEAH, I GUESS I COULD
LEAVE MY POST UNMANNED

542
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:22,400
FOR A MINUTE OR TWO.

543
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,300
WHERE DO YOU THINK
YOU'RE GOING?
HOME.

544
00:27:46,700 --> 00:27:47,499
(scoffs) I DON'T THINK SO.

545
00:27:47,500 --> 00:27:49,600
NOW YOU GET BACK OUT THERE
AND YOU FINISH WHAT YOU STARTED.

546
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,100
YOU MEAN WHAT YOU STARTED?
I DON'T WANNA GO TO DARTMOUTH.

547
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,000
THERE, I SAID IT.
NOW BACK OFF.

548
00:28:00,700 --> 00:28:03,799
SO WE MOVED INTO THE HOTEL,
AND, UH...

549
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:05,900
IT WAS JUST THE TWO OF US,

550
00:28:06,300 --> 00:28:08,800
AND I WAS <i>REALLY</i> LONELY.

551
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,100
SO...
THAT'S WHEN YOU...

552
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,199
SO I ENDED UP
AT THE OSTROFF CENTER.

553
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,800
AND MY MOM SAYS THAT THEY HAVE
THE BEST COUNSELORS,

554
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:21,900
BUT WHAT THEY REALLY
GET PAID FOR

555
00:28:21,900 --> 00:28:23,700
IS TO TO KEEP
THEIR MOUTHS SHUT.

556
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,600
LOOK,
I-I WON'T SAY ANYTHING.

557
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:29,900
I PROMISE.

558
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,600
SO DO YOU WANNA
GO BACK IN?

559
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,600
YEAH, AND ANSWER
MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT FLORIDA?

560
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,600
WELL, I HAVE A GRANDMA
WHO LIVES IN FORT MYERS.

561
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,600
I CAN HELP
THINK OF SOME MATERIAL.

562
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,200
MAY I PLEASE
HAVE EVERYONE'S ATTENTION?

563
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:54,900
WELCOME AGAIN

564
00:28:55,100 --> 00:28:57,899
TO THE CONSTANCE BILLARD/
ST. JUDE'S IVY WEEK MIXER.

565
00:28:57,900 --> 00:28:59,700
I'M BLORF,

566
00:28:59,700 --> 00:29:01,900
CHAIR OF THE COMMUNITY OUTREACH
COMMITTEE.

567
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:09,699
EVERY YEAR,
OUR SCHOOLS CHOOSE TO SUPPORT

568
00:29:09,700 --> 00:29:13,699
ONE LOCAL INSTITUTION THAT
WE FEEL BENEFITS OUR COMMUNITY.

569
00:29:13,700 --> 00:29:14,500
THIS YEAR,

570
00:29:14,500 --> 00:29:18,200
OUR SCHOOLS HAVE CHOSEN TO HONOR
THE OSTROFF CENTER.

571
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:29,100
THIS SEMESTER, OUR CHOICE
IS A VERY PERSONAL ONE

572
00:29:29,100 --> 00:29:31,500
BECAUSE THE CENTER
HAS HELPED ONE OF OUR OWN.

573
00:29:31,500 --> 00:29:33,100
WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?

574
00:29:33,100 --> 00:29:35,000
IT'S BECAUSE
OF THEIR EXCELLENT PROGRAM

575
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:38,600
WHICH AIDS SO MANY
YOUNG ADDICTS AND ALCOHOLICS

576
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:43,500
THAT A STUDENT HERE WITH US
TODAY IS CLEAN AND SOBER.

577
00:29:43,500 --> 00:29:44,700
AT LEAST, FOR NOW.

578
00:29:44,700 --> 00:29:46,199
CAN I PLEASE HAVE
SERENA VAN DER WOODSEN

579
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,200
JOIN ME ONSTAGE?

580
00:29:48,900 --> 00:29:51,100
 <i>SPOTTED AT IVY WEEK MIXER--</i>

581
00:29:51,100 --> 00:29:53,400
 <i>S. AND B.'s LAST STAND,</i>

582
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,100
 <i>AND ONLY</i> ONE <i>GETS OUT ALIVE.</i>

583
00:29:56,100 --> 00:29:57,800
 <i>BETTER TAKE COVER.</i>

584
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,299
PLEASE TELL ME
THIS ISN'T HAPPENING.
IT'S NOT.

585
00:30:03,300 --> 00:30:05,900
NO.
NO, YOU'RE
NOT GOINHERE.

586
00:30:05,900 --> 00:30:07,700
YOU'RE GONNA STAY
RIGHT HERE, OKAY?

587
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:09,800
WHATEVER YOU'RE DOING,

588
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,600
THINK ABOUT WHO'S STANDING
IN THIS ROOM RIGHT NOW.

589
00:30:18,300 --> 00:30:20,500
DON'T TRY TO DENY IT.
CHUCK SAW YOU.

590
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:30,600
HI. I'M SERENA VAN DER WOODSEN.

591
00:30:31,700 --> 00:30:35,800
I JUST WANNA THANK MY FRIEND,
BLAIR WALDORF,

592
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,300
FOR RECOGNIZING
THE OSTROFF CENTER

593
00:30:38,300 --> 00:30:40,900
AND ALL OF THE GOOD THINGS
THAT THEY DO.

594
00:30:40,900 --> 00:30:42,800
THANKS, BLAIR.

595
00:30:46,500 --> 00:30:48,000
AT THE CENTER,

596
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,299
ONE OF THE MAIN THINGS
THAT WE LEARN IS FORGIVENESS.

597
00:30:51,300 --> 00:30:54,700
SHE'S IN REHAB?
NO, IT'S NOT HER.
IT'S HER BROTHER WHO'S THERE.

598
00:30:54,700 --> 00:30:57,300
WHAT?
YOU CAN'T TELL ANYONE, OKAY?

599
00:30:57,300 --> 00:30:58,500
I WON'T, BUT WHY
IS SHE DOING THIS?

600
00:30:58,500 --> 00:31:01,900
I'VE LEARNED ABOUT HOW,

601
00:31:01,900 --> 00:31:04,400
IN ORDER TO MOVE FORWARD
WITH OUR FUTURE,

602
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:08,500
WE MUST FORGIVE THOSE
WHO HAVE WRONGED US IN THE PAST,

603
00:31:08,500 --> 00:31:11,800
AND WE MUST, OURSELVES,
ASK FOR FORGIVENESS

604
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,500
FROM THOSE
WHOM WE'VE WRONGED.

605
00:31:15,300 --> 00:31:17,999
WITHOUT THIS FORGIVENESS,
INNOCENT PEOPLE GET HURT--

606
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,200
ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU, SERENA.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

607
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,300
 <i>HONESTY MAY BE THE BEST POLICY</i>
 <i>IN SOME ZIP CODES,</i>

608
00:31:24,300 --> 00:31:27,400
 <i>BUT NOT IN THIS ONE,</i>
 <i>AND NOT THIS WEEK,</i>

609
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,400
 <i>'CAUSE</i>
 <i>"I WAS A TEENAGE DRUG ADDICT"</i>

610
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,400
 <i>IS NOT EXACTLY</i>
 <i>A WINNING COLLEGE ESSAY.</i>

611
00:31:36,700 --> 00:31:39,999
AND NOW CAN I PLEASE HAVE
DR. OSTROFF JOIN ME ONSTAGE?

612
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,399
WHY IS BLAIR OUTING YOU

613
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,100
FOR A DRUG PROBLEM
THAT YOU DON'T HAVE?

614
00:31:44,100 --> 00:31:46,000
YOU DON'T, DO YOU?
MOM!

615
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:50,400
OT LLL, WE'S NIKE  HAVE
SOME FREE, OPEN RELATIONSHIP.
AND THAT'S <i>MY</i> FAULT?

616
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:51,900
LOOK, WHAT'S HAPPENED TO ERIC

617
00:31:51,900 --> 00:31:54,600
HAS PUT A HUGE STRAIN
ON OUR FAMILY,

618
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,599
BUT WE ARE STILL A FAMILY.

619
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:00,000
WHY DO YOU THINK
I DID WHAT I JUST DID?

620
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:04,700
WILL YOU EXCUSE ME?

621
00:32:04,700 --> 00:32:08,500
I'M GONNA GO END THIS
WITH BLAIR NOW.

622
00:32:13,700 --> 00:32:16,800
BLAIR,
WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?

623
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,000
WILL YOU EXCUSE US,
PLEASE?

624
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:18,900
SURE.

625
00:32:21,700 --> 00:32:23,100
SO WE GOOD NOW?

626
00:32:23,100 --> 00:32:24,100
ARE WE SQUARE?

627
00:32:24,100 --> 00:32:26,500
NO, BECAUSE NOTHING I DO

628
00:32:26,500 --> 00:32:28,700
WILL EVER BE AS BAD
AS WHAT YOU DID TO ME.

629
00:32:28,700 --> 00:32:31,200
LOOK, I'M ASKING YOU,
PLEASE.

630
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:32,699
I'LL STOP IF YOU WILL.

631
00:32:32,700 --> 00:32:35,700
YOU'RE JUST SAYING THAT
BECAUSE TODAY YOU LOST,

632
00:32:35,700 --> 00:32:38,200
AND YOU'RE GONNA KEEP LOSING.

633
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:39,900
NOW IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME,
UNLIKE YOU,

634
00:32:39,900 --> 00:32:42,100
I HAVE A FUTURE
TO GET BACK TO.

635
00:32:54,100 --> 00:32:55,400
SERENA.

636
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,799
SERENA!
WHAT? WHAT, DO YOU WANT
TO CONGRATULATE ME

637
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,800
ON DESTROYING MY FUTURE?
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.

638
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,400
I JUST WANTED TO ASK
IF YOU'RE OKAY,

639
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,300
'CAUSE WHAT YOU DID IN THERE
FOR YOUR BROTHER,

640
00:33:04,300 --> 00:33:07,000
THAT WAS...
THAT WAS VERY COOL.

641
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,800
WAIT, HOW DID YOU KNOW
ABOUT MY BROTHER?
IT--IT'S OKAY.

642
00:33:10,100 --> 00:33:13,300
REALLY, NO ONE
WILL EVER HEAR IT FROM ME,

643
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,100
BUT IF YOU EVER NEED
ANYBODY TO TALK TO,

644
00:33:17,100 --> 00:33:20,300
OR NOT TALK TO,

645
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,400
I'D BE HAPPY TO DO EITHER.

646
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,300
I'LL KEEP THAT IN MIND.

647
00:33:25,300 --> 00:33:26,900
AND, UM,

648
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,100
I KNOW I SAID
SOME THINGS ABOUT YOU

649
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:32,500
AND YOUR WORLD,

650
00:33:33,500 --> 00:33:35,000
D I'SORRY.

651
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:41,100
OBVIOUSLY, I DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT YOUR LIFE.

652
00:33:41,500 --> 00:33:43,000
THANK YOU,

653
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,100
BUT I'VE REALLY
GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE.

654
00:33:45,100 --> 00:33:46,500
YEAH, SURE, SURE.

655
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:48,500
BUT...

656
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:50,799
MAYBE, YOU KNOW,
I CAN TAKE YOU UP

657
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:55,300
ON THAT GETTING TOGETHER
AND NOT TALKING THING SOMETIME?

658
00:33:56,900 --> 00:33:58,400
WILL YOU CALL ME?

659
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:00,900
YEAH.

660
00:34:07,300 --> 00:34:10,300
OKAY, LET'S GO.
LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

661
00:34:10,300 --> 00:34:13,200
NO, THERE'S SOMEONE
I NEED TO TALK TO FIRST.

662
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:15,300
PLEASE, MOM,
I CAN DO THIS.

663
00:34:15,900 --> 00:34:17,100
OKAY.

664
00:34:18,300 --> 00:34:21,100
BLAIR, CAN I TALK TO YOU?
IT'LL JUST TAKE A MOMENT.

665
00:34:21,300 --> 00:34:23,800
SURE. SURE.

666
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,300
SERENA'S NOT A PATIENT
AT THE OSTROFF CENTER.

667
00:34:32,300 --> 00:34:35,400
ERIC, YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN A SWEET
KID, AND I CAN UNDERSTAND YOU

668
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,400
TRYING TO PROTECT
YOUR SISTER--
I AM.

669
00:34:38,700 --> 00:34:40,199
I'VE NEVER EVEN SEEN YOU
TAKE A DRINK.

670
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,800
I'M NOT AN ALCOHOLIC.

671
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,100
 <i>I</i> DID THIS.

672
00:34:47,700 --> 00:34:50,400
AND TODAY,
SERENA PROTECTED ME.

673
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,400
ERIC, I...

674
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:57,000
I DIDN'T...

675
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,000
SEE THAT COMING? YEAH.

676
00:34:59,300 --> 00:35:00,000
OH, IT MUST BE A SHOCK

677
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,300
FOR SOMEONE WHO THINKS
SHE KNOWS EVERYTHING.

678
00:35:09,700 --> 00:35:11,399
AND WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?

679
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,300
 <i>ANOTHER BOMB</i>
 <i>LANDS IN BLAIR'S LAP.</i>

680
00:35:14,300 --> 00:35:16,200
 <i>WILL SHE USE IT AS AMMUNITION,</i>

681
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,700
 <i>OR WILL SHE FINALLY SURRENDER</i>
 <i>AND PUT DOWN HER ARMS?</i>

682
00:35:19,700 --> 00:35:20,900
NOTHING.

683
00:35:27,700 --> 00:35:30,000
SO YOU REALLY IMPRESSED
THE GUY, HUH?

684
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,500
MUST BE THE WAY
YOU POURED THOSE SODAS.

685
00:35:35,900 --> 00:35:38,300
YEAH, ABOUT THAT, UH...

686
00:35:39,100 --> 00:35:42,200
I KNOW I MAY HAVE BEEN A LITTLE
LIGHT ON THE GRATITUDE...

687
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:43,600
YEAH, A TOUCH.

688
00:35:43,900 --> 00:35:46,200
BUT I APPRECIATE IT,
ALL OF IT,

689
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,300
EVEN IF I SOMETIMES
DON'T SHOW IT.

690
00:35:50,300 --> 00:35:51,099
WE'RE REAL MEN, SON.

691
00:35:51,100 --> 00:35:52,800
WE DON'T LIKE
TO SHARE OUR FEELINGS.

692
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:56,800
BUT...

693
00:35:57,900 --> 00:35:59,299
I KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE CAPABLE OF,

694
00:35:59,300 --> 00:36:01,000
AND NOTHING--

695
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:02,900
MY LAST NAME,

696
00:36:03,300 --> 00:36:04,000
MY BANK ACCOUNT--

697
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,400
IS GONNA KEEP YOU
FROM GETTING WHAT YOU DESERVE,

698
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:09,300
NOT IF I CAN HELP IT.

699
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:12,400
AND I SEE THAT DARTMOUTH

700
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,299
HAS AN ELECTROACOUSTIC
MUSIC PROGRAM.

701
00:36:14,300 --> 00:36:17,000
WHAT DO YOU THINK
OF ME APPLYING?
WHAT?

702
00:36:17,100 --> 00:36:19,300
YEAH, AND JENNY'S SMART.
WE'LL GET HER EARLY ADMISSION.

703
00:36:19,300 --> 00:36:21,500
MAYBE WE'LL ALL GO.

704
00:36:21,900 --> 00:36:24,100
SO NOT REMOTELY FUNNY.

705
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,400
NATE.

706
00:36:38,900 --> 00:36:40,300
HUH?

707
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,400
HELLO?

708
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:49,900
OH, YEAH,
I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.

709
00:36:50,700 --> 00:36:53,100
WHERE THE HELL COULD YOU
POSSIBLY HAVE TO BE RIGHT NOW?

710
00:36:53,100 --> 00:36:55,100
I'M LATE FOR A RUN
WITH MY DAD.

711
00:36:57,300 --> 00:36:59,200
WHO'S JESSICA?

712
00:36:59,900 --> 00:37:01,700
(chuckles)
AW, JERSEY GIRLS.

713
00:37:02,300 --> 00:37:03,099
LET'S JUST SAY

714
00:37:03,100 --> 00:37:06,000
THEY'RE THE PRINCETON TIGERS
FOR A REASON.

715
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:09,500
ALL RIGHT, I'LL SEE YA.

716
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:14,400
(Captain) YOU FEEL THIS?
FEELING GOOD?

717
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,800
GOOD.
ALL RIGHT,
'CAUSE I'M GONNA...

718
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:20,200
HEY, GOOD TO SEE YOU, SON.
TURNS OUT JED'S A RUNNER, TOO.
I WOULD

719
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,600
IF I KNEW HE WAS GONNA
GET ME OUT HERE THIS EARLY.
I'M GLAD TO SEE

720
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,599
YOU'RE FEELING BETTER, NATE.
I WAS, UH, JUST TELLING JED

721
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,300
ABOUT YOUR LITTLE BOUT
OF FOOD POISONING LAST NIGHT.

722
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,900
WHAT DO YOU SAY, KIDDO? YOU WANT
TO SHOW HIM HOW IT'S DONE?
LET'S GO.

723
00:37:32,900 --> 00:37:35,000
NATE IS THE CAPTAIN
OF HIS LACROSSE TEAM,

724
00:37:35,100 --> 00:37:38,400
AS WELL AS BEING AN ALL-STAR
CROSS-COUNTRY RUNNER.

725
00:37:49,100 --> 00:37:50,400
HI.
HEY!

726
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,600
UM, IS IT OKAY
THAT I'M HERE?

727
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,099
YEAH. HI.

728
00:37:55,100 --> 00:37:57,300
UH, WILL YOUR MOM BE MAD?

729
00:37:57,300 --> 00:38:00,100
THAT YOU'RE HERE? THAT WOULD
REQUIRE HER STOPPING BY.

730
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,099
SATURDAY MORNINGS ARE SPENT
AT BLISS, AND AFTER LAST NIGHT,

731
00:38:03,100 --> 00:38:06,100
I THINK SHE COULD USE SOME
EXTRA TIME ON THE MASSAGE TABLE.

732
00:38:06,500 --> 00:38:09,000
RIGHT. WELL, HERE.

733
00:38:10,700 --> 00:38:12,100
SOMEBODY HAS AN ADMIRER.

734
00:38:12,100 --> 00:38:14,900
THEY'RE FOR MY SISTER...
FROM THE BROWN REP.

735
00:38:14,900 --> 00:38:18,300
UM, APPARENTLY HIS COUSIN
DID SOME TIME HERE IN HIS YOUTH.

736
00:38:18,300 --> 00:38:19,600
WELL, THAT'S GOOD, RIGHT?

737
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,400
I MEAN, AT LEAST
HER ENTIRE FUTURE ISN'T BLOWN.
I DON'T THINK

738
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,700
THAT'S MAKING HER FEEL
A WHOLE LOT BETTER RIGHT NOW.

739
00:38:41,300 --> 00:38:42,499
WHENEVER
SOMETHING'S BOTHERING YOU,

740
00:38:42,500 --> 00:38:44,600
I CAN ALWAYS FIND YOU HERE.

741
00:38:47,500 --> 00:38:49,500
YOU HERE
FOR ANOTHER CATFIGHT?

742
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,300
WHAT'S THAT?

743
00:38:56,300 --> 00:38:57,900
A LETTER.

744
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:00,900
I WROTE IT TO YOU WHEN YOU
WERE AWAY AT BOARDING SCHOOL.

745
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:02,900
I NEVER SENT IT.

746
00:39:07,100 --> 00:39:08,900
"DEAR SERENA,

747
00:39:08,900 --> 00:39:11,700
"MY WORLD IS FALLING APART,

748
00:39:11,700 --> 00:39:15,100
"AND YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE
WHO WOULD UNDERSTAND.

749
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:19,400
"MY FATHER LEFT MY MOTHER
FOR A 31-YEAR-OLD MODEL...

750
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,500
"A MALE MODEL.

751
00:39:24,300 --> 00:39:25,299
"I FEEL LIKE SCREAMING

ANYONE TO TALK TO.

00:39:30,100 --> 00:39:31,600
"YOU'RE GONE..."

754
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,300
"MY DAD'S GONE.

755
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:36,600
NATE'S ACTING WEIRD."

756
00:39:37,900 --> 00:39:40,300
(voice breaks)
"WHERE ARE YOU?

757
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:42,300
WHY DON'T YOU CALL?"

758
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:48,000
"WHY DID YOU LEAVE
WITHOUT SAYING GOOD-BYE?

759
00:39:48,100 --> 00:39:50,400
"YOU'RE SUPPOSED
TO BE MY BEST FRIEND.

760
00:39:50,900 --> 00:39:52,500
I MISS YOU SO MUCH."

761
00:39:55,700 --> 00:39:57,400
"LOVE, BLAIR."
(paper rustles)

762
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:03,600
WHY DIDN'T YOU SEND IT?

763
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:04,800
I WOULD'VE--

764
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:06,100
YOU WOULD'VE WHAT?

765
00:40:08,700 --> 00:40:10,400
YOU KNEW, SERENA,

766
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,100
AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN CALL.

767
00:40:14,300 --> 00:40:17,799
(voice breaks) I DIDN'T KNOW
WHAT TO SAY TO YOU

768
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:21,500
OR EVEN HOW TO BE YOUR FRIEND
AFTER WHAT I DID.

769
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,000
I'M SO SORRY.

770
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,000
ERIC TOLD ME WHAT HAPPENED.

771
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,800
