00:06:33,216 --> 00:06:35,345
Just someone you do love.
177
00:06:35,435 --> 00:06:38,136
It's a celebration of
our four years together.
178
00:06:38,152 --> 00:06:39,182
Hear, hear.
179
00:06:39,554 --> 00:06:41,887
I see you talking, Jake, but all I hear is,
180
00:06:41,889 --> 00:06:45,111
"Wah wah wah wah wah," like
Charlie Brown's teacher.
181
00:06:45,136 --> 00:06:46,642
I can't believe your attitude!
182
00:06:46,667 --> 00:06:48,227
You are the head of the prom committee!
183
00:06:48,229 --> 00:06:49,961
Show a little respect!
184
00:06:50,198 --> 00:06:51,740
Do you want to do it?
185
00:06:52,269 --> 00:06:53,574
Be my guest.
186
00:06:57,936 --> 00:06:59,270
Go with someone you love?
187
00:06:59,272 --> 00:07:01,239
That is exactly what is wrong with prom.
188
00:07:01,241 --> 00:07:03,659
It is an enforced romantic
Hallmark faux-liday
189
00:07:03,684 --> 00:07:04,709
for high school.
190
00:07:04,711 --> 00:07:07,512
I mean, you're expected to drop
tons of cash on a dress, limo,
191
00:07:07,514 --> 00:07:09,845
tickets, and dinner
just to dance in a Ramada
192
00:07:09,870 --> 00:07:11,056
off the freeway?
193
00:07:11,081 --> 00:07:12,717
90% of the prom-going public
194
00:07:12,719 --> 00:07:14,752
expect Pretty in Pink
and they get Carrie.
195
00:07:14,754 --> 00:07:15,753
And who profits?
196
00:07:15,755 --> 00:07:17,654
- Dry cleaners?
- The big corporations.
197
00:07:17,656 --> 00:07:19,623
It's the prom industrial complex.
198
00:07:19,625 --> 00:07:21,612
I wish I could just opt
out of the whole thing.
199
00:07:21,637 --> 00:07:23,681
Like how you can sign up
on the "do not call" list
200
00:07:23,706 --> 00:07:25,001
for telemarketers.
201
00:07:25,026 --> 00:07:26,486
There should be a "do not ask" list.
202
00:07:26,511 --> 00:07:28,009
Jenna, that is I Dream of Genius.
203
00:07:28,034 --> 00:07:29,600
We should totes make a "Do Not Ask."
204
00:07:29,602 --> 00:07:31,467
We can put it on the wall
in the senior hallway.
205
00:07:31,469 --> 00:07:33,536
And if you sign it, everyone
will know you're off-limits.
206
00:07:33,538 --> 00:07:36,339
No one should be forced
to go to this farce.
207
00:07:36,605 --> 00:07:38,472
Do Not Ask was the perfect solution.
208
00:07:38,497 --> 00:07:40,939
I wouldn't have to worry
about going or not going
209
00:07:40,964 --> 00:07:43,415
to prom with Matty, because
I wouldn't be going.
210
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,799
No Matty and no prom-blems.
211
00:07:45,824 --> 00:07:48,456
Congrats, Jenna, although
you've always been my queen.
212
00:07:48,481 --> 00:07:49,389
Huh?
213
00:07:50,728 --> 00:07:52,594
The prom court nominees are up!
214
00:07:56,599 --> 00:07:58,401
Being nominated for prom queen
215
00:07:58,403 --> 00:08:02,471
meant that for me, "Do Not Ask"
had turned into a "Have to Go."
216
00:08:02,473 --> 00:08:04,225
So much for that plan.
217
00:08:05,217 --> 00:08:06,716
Being on prom court with Matty
218
00:08:06,740 --> 00:08:09,176
would have been sophomore
Jenna's dream come true.
219
00:08:09,201 --> 00:08:12,316
Hell, Jenna-until-two-days-
ago's dream come true.
220
00:08:12,341 --> 00:08:15,129
And the irony was that I was
the one keeping us apart.
221
00:08:15,154 --> 00:08:18,088
Okay, so everyone pair into
couples for the group photo.
222
00:08:18,090 --> 00:08:19,823
Remember, it's for the school newspaper,
223
00:08:19,825 --> 00:08:22,920
so don't look, like, weird.
224
00:08:23,668 --> 00:08:27,292
Well, would it be so bad if
we just posed as a couple?
225
00:08:28,927 --> 00:08:31,452
Hey, want to be posers together?
226
00:08:31,526 --> 00:08:32,968
Always.
227
00:08:35,024 --> 00:08:37,554
I love how you're the
perfect height for my arm.
228
00:08:37,951 --> 00:08:39,618
Nope, couldn't do it. Felt too good.
229
00:08:39,620 --> 00:08:42,308
He's too cute. Avoid, avoid, avoid.
230
00:08:42,333 --> 00:08:45,724
This isn't working. Hey, let's switch.
231
00:08:47,794 --> 00:08:49,839
- We belong together, Jenna.
- Sure, Kyle.
232
00:08:49,864 --> 00:08:52,426
I hated to be a snob,
but it was kind of weird
233
00:08:52,451 --> 00:08:54,051
that Kyle was on prom court.
234
00:08:54,076 --> 00:08:56,611
Hey, Kyle. Lookin' good, bro.
235
00:08:57,690 --> 00:09:00,624
Oh, no. Kyle was
nominated as a joke.
236
00:09:00,916 --> 00:09:03,917
Poor guy. He stuck
out like a sore thumb.
237
00:09:03,919 --> 00:09:06,587
Everyone else on prom
court was popular.
238
00:09:07,656 --> 00:09:09,915
Everyone except me.
239
00:09:10,717 --> 00:09:14,013
Four kings, four
queens, and two jokers.
240
00:09:14,543 --> 00:09:18,302
Okay, everyone say, "Prom Fairyland."
241
00:09:19,367 --> 00:09:21,567
All: Prom Fairyland.
242
00:09:21,569 --> 00:09:23,069
Avoid the tyranny of prom
243
00:09:23,071 --> 00:09:26,872
that corporate America is
forcing on you, sheeple.
244
00:09:26,874 --> 00:09:28,476

245
00:09:28,830 --> 00:09:30,566
Nice dress. Except you have a stain on it.
246
00:09:30,591 --> 00:09:31,786
What? Where?
247
00:09:31,811 --> 00:09:33,778
It's from the prom Kool-Aid
you've been drinking.
248
00:09:34,081 --> 00:09:35,913
Prom court is not a binding contract.
249
00:09:35,915 --> 00:09:37,648
You are a traitor to the Do Not Ask.
250
00:09:37,650 --> 00:09:39,150
Okay, so I got a little excited.
251
00:09:39,152 --> 00:09:41,619
- It's prom court, Tamara.
- You're only human.
252
00:09:41,621 --> 00:09:43,588
But don't worry, I'm not going to go.
253
00:09:43,590 --> 00:09:45,056
My nomination was a joke.
254
00:09:45,058 --> 00:09:46,724
A joke? Like, "Knock, knock. Who's there?
255
00:09:46,726 --> 00:09:48,126
Jenna the prom queen"?
256
00:09:48,128 --> 00:09:50,228
No, I'm the loser nominee and so was Kyle.
257
00:09:50,230 --> 00:09:53,730
This is sophomore year
Winter Formal déjà vu.
258
00:09:53,755 --> 00:09:55,973
It's not about a nomination.
It's about humiliation.
259
00:09:55,998 --> 00:09:57,216
That's not true.
260
00:09:57,248 --> 00:09:58,614
Don't try and make me feel better.
261
00:09:58,639 --> 00:10:00,706
I don't sugarcoat hard facts, Jenna.
262
00:10:00,708 --> 00:10:01,994
We voted for prom king and queen nominees
263

the day you caused the blackout
and you were super popular.
264
00:10:04,780 --> 00:10:07,466
This is the result of your
literal 15 minutes of fame.
265
00:10:07,468 --> 00:10:09,434
Okay, so then why do the Julies look at me
266
00:10:09,436 --> 00:10:11,336

the bottom of their Louboutins?

That's their resting face.
You should know that by now.
268
00:10:13,536 --> 00:10:14,773
I had to admit,
269
00:10:14,775 --> 00:10:17,242
I was more than a little
relieved that I wasn't a joke.
270
00:10:17,244 --> 00:10:19,611
Did I actually have a chance
at winning prom queen?
271
00:10:19,613 --> 00:10:22,180
I can tell you're already
planning your acceptance speech,

Wait, hold the tiara.
274
00:10:25,719 --> 00:10:27,252
Jenna, you have to win prom queen.
275
00:10:27,254 --> 00:10:29,238
Well, that was a quick turnaround.
276
00:10:29,263 --> 00:10:31,156
That way you can use
your speech as a platform
277
00:10:31,158 --> 00:10:34,685
to tell the assembled masses
how they've degraded themselves.
278
00:10:34,710 --> 00:10:36,027
I don't really think I'd make a speech.
279
00:10:36,029 --> 00:10:38,325

00:13:19,031 --> 00:13:22,175
You just committed to
staying in this stupid town.
350
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,089
Why continue this sham of a relationship
351
00:13:24,114 --> 00:13:25,107
for a few more weeks?
352
00:13:25,132 --> 00:13:27,239
Let's just put it out of its misery now.
353
00:13:30,921 --> 00:13:33,436
Sign up and take back your dignity.
354
00:13:33,461 --> 00:13:35,961
Prom? More like wrong.
355
00:13:35,963 --> 00:13:37,663
That kind of works.
356
00:13:37,665 --> 00:13:40,533
Turn in your prom ticket and
you'll enter a raffle to meet
357
00:13:40,535 --> 00:13:42,767
my cousin's cover band of...
358
00:13:42,769 --> 00:13:44,606
Paramore.
359
00:13:45,827 --> 00:13:47,989
Um, what are you doing?
360
00:13:48,014 --> 00:13:50,293
Oh, it's this totally brillz
idea that Jenna thought of.
361
00:13:50,318 --> 00:13:52,718
It's a Do Not Ask list so
no idiot asks you to prom
362
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:54,124
and you can opt out of the whole charade.
363
00:13:54,155 --> 00:13:56,155
So Jenna thought of this?
364
00:13:56,157 --> 00:13:57,617
Interesting.
365
00:13:59,328 --> 00:14:01,204
Can I sign this twice?
366
00:14:02,063 --> 00:14:03,771
Actually, you know who should be on this?
367
00:14:03,796 --> 00:14:05,231
That girl who listens to The Fray
368
00:14:05,233 --> 00:14:08,467
and has the "99% angel" sticker on her BMW.
369
00:14:08,469 --> 00:14:10,136
She doesn't deserve to get asked to prom.
370
00:14:10,138 --> 00:14:11,537
Stop it.
371
00:14:11,539 --> 00:14:13,924
As head of the prom
committee, I forbid this.
372
00:14:13,949 --> 00:14:16,819
I forbid it. [snaps pencil]
373
00:14:18,757 --> 00:14:20,279
He got him a latte?
374
00:14:20,281 --> 00:14:21,747
Is it vanilla flavored?
375
00:14:21,749 --> 00:14:25,202
I think they spelled your name wrong.
376
00:14:25,319 --> 00:14:27,252
I think they spelled it right.
377
00:14:27,592 --> 00:14:29,487
Yes, I'll go to prom with you.
378
00:14:32,391 --> 00:14:34,226
- Sick!
- Traitor!
379
00:14:34,228 --> 00:14:36,127
- I thought it was sweet.
- So sweet.
380
00:14:36,129 --> 00:14:38,730
Except, Theo, I thought you
and Cole would go together.
381
00:14:38,732 --> 00:14:39,831
Because we're gay?
382
00:14:39,833 --> 00:14:41,166
For the billionth time,
383
00:14:41,168 --> 00:14:42,901
gay people can be friends with each other.
384
00:14:42,903 --> 00:14:45,180
But friends can go to prom.
385
00:14:45,739 --> 00:14:46,720
You're right.
386
00:14:48,741 --> 00:14:51,876
Lissa, would you like
to go to prom with me?
387
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,579
I'm weighing a couple of offers, but yes.
388
00:14:55,581 --> 00:14:59,563
If I go with you, I'm guaranteed
to keep my second virginity.
389
00:15:00,086 --> 00:15:01,818
What the hell are you doing?
390
00:15:01,820 --> 00:15:03,120
I'm gonna show Cole that two can play this
391
00:15:03,122 --> 00:15:04,688
back-to-basic game.
392
00:15:04,690 --> 00:15:06,790
I have to show you my prom vision board.
393
00:15:06,792 --> 00:15:08,325
[squeals]
394
00:15:08,327 --> 00:15:11,794
Everyone is drinking the
prom Kool-Aid, but not me.
395
00:15:11,819 --> 00:15:13,162
I don't even care about going to prom
396
00:15:13,164 --> 00:15:15,064
in a Stella McCartney gold sequin dress
397
00:15:15,066 --> 00:15:16,733
with a light pink matching corsage
398
00:15:16,735 --> 00:15:19,403
and drinking champagne
in a town car, not a limo,
399
00:15:19,405 --> 00:15:22,216
and getting a room at the Four
Seasons with all my friends.
400
00:15:22,569 --> 00:15:25,409
The more Tamara protested,
the more I could tell...
401
00:15:25,411 --> 00:15:29,139
she wanted to have the
perfect prom, just like me.
402
00:15:31,681 --> 00:15:32,915
Hey, babe.
403
00:15:32,917 --> 00:15:35,646
So I figured out how you
can spend your gap year.
404
00:15:35,671 --> 00:15:37,208
There's this inner-city tutoring program
405
00:15:37,233 --> 00:15:38,264
that you can volunteer at.
406
00:15:38,289 --> 00:15:40,825
Oh, and this law firm
is looking for interns.
407
00:15:40,850 --> 00:15:43,146
You can also take film classes at SC.
408
00:15:43,171 --> 00:15:45,738
After all that, you could
definitely reach for an Ivy.
409
00:15:45,740 --> 00:15:47,755
Whoa. Thanks.
410
00:15:47,780 --> 00:15:50,642
This is really sweet of you,
but none of this involves saving,
411
00:15:50,644 --> 00:15:52,567
let alone making any money.
412
00:15:52,592 --> 00:15:54,115
I already know what I'm going to do.
413
00:15:54,140 --> 00:15:56,307
I'm going to live at home,
help my mom and sister,
414
00:15:56,309 --> 00:15:58,343
and wait tables and that
way I can pay for a school
415
00:15:58,345 --> 00:16:00,611
that I'm really excited
about going to next year.
416
00:16:00,613 --> 00:16:02,646
Yeah, I get that, but how can you get into
417
00:16:02,648 --> 00:16:06,117
a school you're excited about if
you don't do anything exciting?
418
00:16:06,119 --> 00:16:08,186
Trust me, I'll figure it out.
419
00:16:08,188 --> 00:16:10,686
- But waiting tables?
- Why do you care so much?
420
00:16:10,711 --> 00:16:12,694
Because it's embarrassing.
421
00:16:13,339 --> 00:16:15,205
I didn't mean it like that.
422
00:16:15,234 --> 00:16:16,710
No, I think you did.
423
00:16:16,735 --> 00:16:19,599
I wouldn't want to embarrass
you when I visit you at Stanford
424
00:16:19,624 --> 00:16:22,406
and I certainly wouldn't
want to embarrass you at prom.
425
00:16:22,408 --> 00:16:24,619
I think we should find other dates.
426
00:16:30,030 --> 00:16:32,225
- Hello?
- We're closed.
427
00:16:32,250 --> 00:16:35,079
We'll be open for business in a few weeks.
428
00:16:36,179 --> 00:16:38,720
Oh, hey. I thought we were broken up.
429
00:16:39,549 --> 00:16:41,315
I didn't mean we were breaking up.
430
00:16:41,317 --> 00:16:43,818
I just... I've been so
stressed with this mom stuff
431
00:16:43,820 --> 00:16:46,187
that I haven't told you
about and I took it out on you
432
00:16:46,189 --> 00:16:47,989
and I'm really sorry.
433
00:16:48,014 --> 00:16:50,192
That's the thing with you,
Sadie, it's always something.
434
00:16:50,217 --> 00:16:51,945
Today it was your mom,
yesterday it was Ally,
435
00:16:51,970 --> 00:16:53,634
tomorrow it's going to
be the New York subway.
436
00:16:53,636 --> 00:16:55,296
I won't take the subway.
437
00:16:55,321 --> 00:16:57,770
Jesus! You know what I mean.
438
00:16:58,499 --> 00:17:00,365
It's always about you.
439
00:17:00,367 --> 00:17:01,889
When is it going to be about me?
440
00:17:02,155 --> 00:17:04,536
You haven't even
congratulated me on the truck.
441
00:17:04,538 --> 00:17:06,538
Congratulations. I'm really happy for you.
442
00:17:06,540 --> 00:17:08,841
I promise I will be better.
443
00:17:08,843 --> 00:17:11,158
Look, I'm sorry. I don't believe you.
444
00:17:12,030 --> 00:17:13,645
All I want to do is love you,
445
00:17:13,647 --> 00:17:16,501
and you fight me every step of the way.
446
00:17:17,499 --> 00:17:19,384
I can't fight anymore.
447
00:17:19,386 --> 00:17:21,687
♪ How easily it goes away ♪
448
00:17:21,689 --> 00:17:24,921
So if you'll excuse me,
I got a lot of work to do.
449
00:17:26,860 --> 00:17:32,664
♪ How easily it goes away ♪
450
00:17:40,343 --> 00:17:41,876
Who knew I'd actually be relieved
451
00:17:41,878 --> 00:17:43,999
to be paired with Kyle over Matty?
452
00:17:44,015 --> 00:17:47,449
He was sweet, despite
certain quirks.
453
00:17:47,451 --> 00:17:48,684
Let's rehearse what happens
454
00:17:48,686 --> 00:17:50,497
when we crown the prom king and queen.
455
00:17:50,522 --> 00:17:53,455
So let's just say Matty wins prom king
456
00:17:53,457 --> 00:17:55,691
and Jenna wins prom queen.
457
00:17:55,693 --> 00:17:58,294
Ooh, I'm so excited.
It's like the real thing.
458
00:17:58,296 --> 00:18:00,561
The universe certainly
had a sick sense of humor,
459
00:18:00,563 --> 00:18:02,798
and by "the universe" I meant Lissa.
460
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,199
So, you guys will walk up to me
461
00:18:04,201 --> 00:18:06,254
and I'll place the crowns on your head.
462
00:18:07,004 --> 00:18:09,068
Come on. Come on.
463
00:18:14,677 --> 00:18:16,807
Then you wave to the crowd,
464
00:18:18,148 --> 00:18:19,714
and then you'll slow dance.
465
00:18:19,716 --> 00:18:22,851
Let's do it for funsies.
Okay, everyone else pair up.
466
00:18:22,853 --> 00:18:23,984
Stand back.
467
00:18:23,986 --> 00:18:25,652
There should be at least a five-foot radius
468
00:18:25,654 --> 00:18:28,310
between the winners and
the rest of you losers.
469
00:18:28,691 --> 00:18:30,691
Soak it up, Hamilton.
470
00:18:30,693 --> 00:18:34,161
Because an imaginary win
is all you're getting.
471
00:18:34,163 --> 00:18:36,044
Okay, dance.
472
00:18:36,069 --> 00:18:37,664
That's okay, really. It's fine.
473
00:18:37,666 --> 00:18:39,033
Come on, Jenna, it's just a dance.
474
00:18:39,035 --> 00:18:41,132
I said dance!
475
00:18:41,838 --> 00:18:42,924
Fine.
476
00:18:44,506 --> 00:18:46,106
Listen, I get it.
477
00:18:46,108 --> 00:18:48,575
You want me to go to school
2,000 miles away from you,
478
00:18:48,577 --> 00:18:51,378
you created a Do Not Ask list.
479
00:18:51,380 --> 00:18:53,913
Why, so I wouldn't ask you to prom?
480
00:18:54,467 --> 00:18:55,716
I wasn't going to ask you anyway.
481
00:18:55,718 --> 00:18:58,098
You made it perfectly
clear you didn't want me to.
482
00:18:58,454 --> 00:19:00,286
Just try to get through one stupid dance,
483
00:19:00,288 --> 00:19:02,756
even though you obviously
hate me now for some reason.
484
00:19:02,758 --> 00:19:04,658
I don't hate you. I did
all those things because...
485
00:19:04,660 --> 00:19:07,361
I don't care. It doesn't matter why.
486
00:19:07,616 --> 00:19:10,779
I got your message loud and
clear. I'll just stay away.
487
00:19:13,990 --> 00:19:16,137
Rehearsal isn't over.
488
00:19:16,170 --> 00:19:18,103
Every inch of me wanted to scream,
489
00:19:18,105 --> 00:19:19,620
"I love you."
490
00:19:19,841 --> 00:19:22,608
The only person I hated was myself.
491
00:19:22,610 --> 00:19:25,036
For putting us through this.
492
00:19:25,407 --> 00:19:27,240
Senior prom was
supposed to be a fun,
493
00:19:27,265 --> 00:19:29,461
once-in-a-lifetime experience.
494
00:19:29,486 --> 00:19:32,007
And we were all letting
it make us miserable.
495
00:19:32,032 --> 00:19:33,518
I couldn't stop thinking
about what Jake said
496
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,086
at the lunch table that day.
497
00:19:35,088 --> 00:19:37,288
"You should go to prom
with someone you love."
498
00:19:37,290 --> 00:19:40,057
And I was going to do just that.

I know this seems weird, but I love you.
502
00:19:52,338 --> 00:19:54,364
Will you go to prom with me?
503
00:19:55,175 --> 00:19:58,826
Yes, yes, a thousand times yes!
504
00:20:01,713 --> 00:20:03,455
What's wrong?
505
00:20:04,092 --> 00:20:06,252
Sergio broke up with me.
506
00:20:07,905 --> 00:20:10,378
I'm so sorry, Sadie.
507
00:20:12,524 --> 00:20:17,045
Hey, you want to go to prom?
508
00:20:18,897 --> 00:20:20,138
Yay.
509
00:20:22,568 --> 00:20:24,069
Oh, by the way, I'm wearing red
510
00:20:24,108 --> 00:20:26,560
so I'll send you a Pinterest
board with your dress options.

00:20:28,702 --> 00:20:29,868
Perfect.

Men do not understand the

Even though I couldn't have him,

I still wanted him to want me.
