00:00:00Okay, Pearl, this is it, Aiden Armstrong is single, this is your last chance to lose your
00:00:17virginity before college ends.
00:00:32Oh my god, isn't that Pearl, the library girl?
00:00:34As in that weird nerd who spends all her time snuffing books?
00:00:38Yeah, I'd hide in books too if I looked like that.
00:00:46Yeah, run back to the library, you ugly gremlin.
00:01:02Could this day get any worse?
00:01:21Uh, hello?
00:01:28I can explain.
00:01:35Explain what?
00:01:40You're naked in my closet!
00:01:52I need your help.
00:01:53Ew!
00:01:54Not, not, no, not like that.
00:01:55I, look, this, this old crazy fling came looking for me, I was in the dorm shower with a freshman
00:02:00and I, I needed a place to hide, the door was unlocked and I panicked.
00:02:05Wait a second, you're, you're Ethan Hart, the most popular senior, the ultimate heartbreaker,
00:02:15the infamous bad boy who never sleeps with the same girl twice, the guy who supposedly
00:02:20has the biggest you-know-what on campus.
00:02:24That rumor is definitely true.
00:02:28Ethan, where are you?
00:02:31Okay, yes, yeah, I'm Ethan Hart, maybe we can do the introductions later, this is an
00:02:35emergency situation.
00:02:36I'm sorry, your emergency situation is not my problem.
00:02:39No, no, please, please, just let me hide until she's gone, I will do anything.
00:02:50Uh, anything?
00:02:54Anything, anything, just, just help me out here.
00:02:57No, I, I can't help you out, I, I know about your reputation and everyone calls you the
00:03:03heartbreaker, I am not going to let you hurt that poor girl.
00:03:06How could I hurt Veronica Steele?
00:03:09Wait.
00:03:10I'm lucky if she doesn't hurt me, physically.
00:03:13Veronica.
00:03:18Yes, Veronica, we hooked up once and she will not leave me alone.
00:03:23Please, just, I will do anything.
00:03:26Ethan, where are you?
00:03:29What, what's your name, what's your name?
00:03:31Uh, Pearl.
00:03:32Pearl?
00:03:33Pearl.
00:03:34I will do anything.
00:03:41Fine, you owe me one though, get in the closet and be quiet, okay?
00:03:47Oh, jeez.
00:03:53You, I heard voices in here.
00:03:56It was just me, I was practicing my lines, I'm a theater major.
00:04:02I'm looking for Ethan.
00:04:03Um, who's, who's Ethan?
00:04:06Oh, come on, everyone knows who he is, even someone like you.
00:04:10Oh, that Ethan.
00:04:13He's a big track and field star, has a lot of friends, usually wears clothes.
00:04:19No, no, I have not seen him tonight, I'm sorry.
00:04:26Are you lying to me?
00:04:29Why would Ethan Hart be in my room?
00:04:34You know what?
00:04:36You're right.
00:04:37Ethan Hart wouldn't even look at a girl like you if he was forced to.
00:04:41A girl like me?
00:04:43How do I put this nicely?
00:04:45Nerdy, boring, dull, forgettable, hard to look at, embarrassing.
00:04:52Speaking of, I caught this little tumble of yours on camera earlier.
00:04:57So, if you're lying to me about Ethan, or if you even think about going near him,
00:05:03I'll release that video to the entire school.
00:05:06Imagine everyone seeing you fall like the clumsy loser you are.
00:05:16Aww, still ugly.
00:05:19I'm sorry.
00:05:32I'm sorry about her. I'll get you a new pair of glasses.
00:05:36It's fine, it doesn't even matter, glasses or not.
00:05:40She's right.
00:05:43She's not.
00:05:45She's just a mean and bitter bully whose life is so boring she gets off on hurting others.
00:05:58I think the glasses are kind of hot.
00:06:07Anyway, thanks again.
00:06:13Wait, what about my favor?
00:06:17You said that if I helped you, you'd give me anything I wanted, and I know what I want.
00:06:23Oh my god, shit, she wants me.
00:06:27Right, um, listen, Pearl, you seem like a cool girl, I appreciate-
00:06:33It was nice to meet you, but you're not really-
00:06:37How do I say this-
00:06:38I want him.
00:06:41How do I say this-
00:06:42I want him.
00:06:45Aiden Armstrong? Seriously? He's like the most generic jock ever.
00:06:50Exactly, I know, he's totally out of my league, but he's finally single for the first time in three years,
00:06:56and I want my chance. I will not graduate college a virgin, and he's the only person I'd even consider sleeping with on this campus,
00:07:02so please just don't try and talk me out of it, I've decided.
00:07:08You're a virgin?
00:07:10Wow, um, I just said that out loud, didn't I?
00:07:14No, it's okay, uh, your not-so-dirty little secret is safe with me.
00:07:22And I'll help you get Aiden.
00:07:24In fact, there's a party tonight, and it just so happens I know where he'll be at.
00:07:30Really? I don't really do the party thing, though.
00:07:35I hate to break it to you, but if you want Aiden, you gotta hit the party scene.
00:07:40Maybe just not like this.
00:07:45Maybe your glass is broke, for a reason.
00:07:54Trust me, Pearl. My cousin, she knows what she's doing. She's a fashion major.
00:08:05I'll do.
00:08:15Ethan! This is new.
00:08:19Oh, no, we're not hooking up. We're here for fashion advice. Can you help?
00:08:25Oh, heck yeah! It's not too often I get to start from scratch.
00:08:29Actually, this might be worse than that.
00:08:32No offense.
00:08:34None taken.
00:08:44It's a lot, I know. I'm prepping for the Sheen X pitch. Got lots of designs going.
00:08:52You work with Sheen?
00:08:54I want to. They have this creator incubator program.
00:08:58It gives young designers like me a chance to show our stuff to the world. It's actually pretty dope.
00:09:03Yeah, that's really dope.
00:09:05So, Pearl, what look are you going for?
00:09:08She's trying to catch the eye of the basketball captain.
00:09:11Then she needs to go from zero to jaw-dropping.
00:09:14Something that says I'm not the library girl.
00:09:17Okay, this isn't just changing your outfits. This is creating your style.
00:09:22I don't know my style.
00:09:24Why do you think we shop with Sheen?
00:09:28They've got so many different options. One of them is going to have to work for you.
00:09:34Okay.
00:09:36Let's start with Sheen Frenchie. You like books, right?
00:09:40Yes.
00:09:41We can make you a European lady. A hot one.
00:09:45We can make you a European lady. A hot one.
00:10:15Okay.
00:10:30Holy smoke show!
00:10:33How do I look?
00:10:38Ethan?
00:10:40Sorry, I think my brain's short-circuiting.
00:10:43In a good way?
00:10:45In the best way.
00:10:49Pearl, you look fucking incredible.
00:10:55And Aiden, he's going to eat you up.
00:10:59Let's get to that party.
00:11:03Alright, Pearl. Follow these three rules and Aiden is yours.
00:11:08Okay, hit me.
00:11:10One, Aiden thinks he's hilarious. So just laugh at all his stupid jokes.
00:11:19Number two, Aiden loves himself. Just shower him with compliments.
00:11:24Compliments, check.
00:11:26And number three, bro is like obsessed with fitness.
00:11:30So just pretend you're two and he will eat that up like protein.
00:11:35Okay, okay, I got this.
00:11:38That's the spirit.
00:11:40And remember, confidence is key.
00:11:43Just go in there, act like you own the place, and he won't be able to resist you.
00:11:50Wait, wait, where are you going?
00:11:52You gotta do this without me.
00:11:54No, no, no, no, no. I am not walking in there alone.
00:11:58You can, and you will.
00:12:02Pearl, you look beautiful.
00:12:05And there's no way he's not going to notice you.
00:12:17Okay, I've got this.
00:12:35Hi, I love it. Let's go.
00:12:40Is that Pearl Simmons?
00:12:42No way. A library girl?
00:12:48Who's that?
00:12:56What do you think you're doing?
00:12:57Yeah, did you get lost on your way from the library?
00:12:59A book isn't a plus one.
00:13:01It's too bad about your broken glasses, Pearl.
00:13:03But don't worry, I can help show you the exit.
00:13:08Remember Ethan's advice. Confidence is key.
00:13:11Glasses or not, Veronica, I can see right through you.
00:13:14Your insults are just about as transparent as your need for attention.
00:13:22Okay, I see that you're trying to have your, like, little moment or whatever.
00:13:27But why don't you just leave before you embarrass yourself like you did on the basketball court?
00:13:32Get off of me!
00:13:34Hey!
00:13:38I don't think so.
00:13:44She's with me.
00:13:50Excuse me?
00:13:51You heard me. And from what I just heard, you all sound real jealous.
00:13:57Jealous? Of her?
00:13:59Please.
00:14:01Yeah, because she's a showstopper.
00:14:03She's making you all look like little sideshow freaks.
00:14:06You're making a mistake, Ethan.
00:14:08The only mistake I made was what happened between us.
00:14:11Last year.
00:14:13Now if you'll excuse us, we have better places to be.
00:14:20Don't touch me. Don't touch me.
00:14:24Thanks for that.
00:14:26No problem.
00:14:27That was a long time coming.
00:14:30And your advice totally worked.
00:14:32What advice?
00:14:33About the confidence.
00:14:35I think I really got under Veronica's skin.
00:14:38See? What did I tell you?
00:14:40I bet you feel great.
00:14:42I feel amazing. It felt amazing.
00:14:46Uh, we should forget about Veronica.
00:14:48Because there's your target.
00:14:5012 o'clock.
00:14:52Okay.
00:14:54I'm going in.
00:14:55Wait.
00:14:56What?
00:14:57Oh my god, is there something in my teeth?
00:14:59I...
00:15:01Um...
00:15:03N-nothing.
00:15:05Good luck.
00:15:13Confidence is key.
00:15:15Whoa! Are you okay?
00:15:17I'm fine. It's just these heels.
00:15:19I'm not used to them, I guess.
00:15:21Hi.
00:15:23Hi.
00:15:25Um, thank you for saving me.
00:15:27Have I seen you somewhere before?
00:15:29Maybe at the gym?
00:15:31You work out?
00:15:33Yeah. Uh, only on days that end with Y.
00:15:37I'm Aiden, by the way.
00:15:39Uh, I'm Pearl.
00:15:41Nice to meet you.
00:15:43Hey, are you busy right now? A few of us are gonna get a game going.
00:15:45Uh, what kind of game?
00:15:49Pearl, come on.
00:15:51Okay.
00:15:53Come on, heartbreaker.
00:15:55Just kidding.
00:15:59Okay, the rules are simple.
00:16:01If the bottle lands on you, you have the choice to
00:16:03kiss someone or take a dare.
00:16:09Who's gonna spin first?
00:16:11Me.
00:16:13I like being on top.
00:16:15Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!
00:16:17Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!
00:16:19No, no, no.
00:16:21I choose dare.
00:16:23Bring it on.
00:16:25I dare you
00:16:27to take off your shirt.
00:16:31No problem.
00:16:35It's not like you haven't seen it before.
00:16:39I dare you
00:16:41to take off your shirt.
00:16:44Okay.
00:16:59What will it be, library girl?
00:17:01Um...
00:17:03Dare.
00:17:05Dare?
00:17:07I dare you
00:17:09to kiss Aiden.
00:17:11No!
00:17:13That's not how it works, Veronica.
00:17:15She chose dare, not kiss.
00:17:17There's no rules against it.
00:17:19Unless that is
00:17:21it's too much for you, Pearl.
00:17:23This is like your first party, isn't it?
00:17:35I'll do it.
00:17:37This is it.
00:17:39The moment I've waited my entire life for.
00:17:41My first kiss.
00:17:43And it's for the man of my dreams.
00:17:45This is going to be perfect.
00:18:07That was so hot.
00:18:11Yeah.
00:18:13Um...
00:18:15Amazing.
00:18:17My turn.
00:18:31Veronica, kiss or dare?
00:18:33Dare.
00:18:35I dare you to tell something really embarrassing.
00:18:37Oh, I'm so glad
00:18:39you asked, because I actually saw
00:18:41something very embarrassing today.
00:18:43Some sad,
00:18:45gross little weirdo got hit
00:18:47in the face with a basketball.
00:18:51That's not how the game works, Veronica.
00:18:53You have to say something embarrassing about yourself.
00:18:55That's not what she said, Ethan.
00:18:57She said to tell
00:18:59everyone something embarrassing.
00:19:01Dude, I saw that girl too.
00:19:03She's a creeper with glasses.
00:19:05What was she doing hanging around the court anyways?
00:19:07Good question.
00:19:09Maybe Pearl knows.
00:19:33Whoa.
00:19:35Couldn't get enough the first time, huh?
00:19:39Um...
00:19:41I have to go.
00:19:53Pearl, wait.
00:19:55You okay?
00:19:57I'm fine.
00:19:59You're not fine.
00:20:02Why are you so upset about that?
00:20:04Look, I was the girl
00:20:06in the video
00:20:08that got hit in the face with a basketball,
00:20:10and if Ethan finds out,
00:20:12then everything's gonna be ruined.
00:20:14Yikes.
00:20:16Okay, I'm sorry.
00:20:18Does it really matter if things are ruined?
00:20:20The kiss was horrible.
00:20:22Both of them.
00:20:24Yeah, but it was all my fault.
00:20:26It was my first kiss.
00:20:28I didn't even know what I was doing.
00:20:30You should know that kisses aren't like
00:20:32the movies. They're awkward sometimes.
00:20:34I thought first kisses
00:20:36were supposed to be like, I don't know,
00:20:38magical or something.
00:20:40Yeah, but
00:20:42your first kiss was with Aiden,
00:20:44and Aiden is, um...
00:20:46Well, he's Aiden.
00:20:48This whole thing was such a bad idea.
00:20:50I'm so stupid.
00:20:52Oh, Pearl, don't say that.
00:20:54You just need to find the right guy to
00:20:56kiss.
00:21:00Veronica, watch it!
00:21:02Oops, didn't see you there.
00:21:04Sorry, it's not my fault.
00:21:06She's practically invisible.
00:21:18You know what?
00:21:20This outfit wasn't really my style.
00:21:22I'm sorry.
00:21:24I'm sorry.
00:21:26I'm sorry.
00:21:28You know what? This outfit wasn't really my style anyways.
00:21:32What are you doing?
00:21:34Confidence is key.
00:21:36Right?
00:21:46Wow.
00:21:53Hell yes, Pearl.
00:21:55I'm in.
00:21:57Skinny dipping in the pool.
00:22:03Let's go, let's go.
00:22:11I can't believe I ruined
00:22:13my first party and my first kiss.
00:22:15So embarrassing.
00:22:17Are you kidding? That was awesome.
00:22:19Yeah? Really?
00:22:21You're quite something,
00:22:23Pearl Simmons.
00:22:27Ethan, what are you doing?
00:22:31Ready?
00:22:35I thought it was supposed to be fun.
00:22:37I almost drowned.
00:22:39Well, you didn't.
00:22:41Oh my god.
00:22:43I can't believe I'm naked in a pool right now.
00:22:45Almost naked and just relax.
00:22:47Go with it. Nobody's judging.
00:22:49I just feel kind of good
00:22:51to be wild.
00:22:53I feel like I'm finally doing
00:22:55what I want to do.
00:22:57Well, I like wild.
00:23:09Cheers to wild.
00:23:11Cheers to wild.
00:23:15Pearl, got a minute?
00:23:17Yeah.
00:23:19Yeah, of course.
00:23:21I'll let you guys talk.
00:23:24Cannibals.
00:23:28So, about those kisses earlier.
00:23:30I'm sorry. For what?
00:23:32I'm sorry.
00:23:34It was my first kiss.
00:23:36Wait, what? That was your first kiss?
00:23:38Like, ever?
00:23:40No. I mean, um...
00:23:42No, it wasn't.
00:23:44Hey, Pearl.
00:23:46I'm honored to be your first.
00:23:48You are?
00:23:50Yes. Being someone's first is
00:23:52really special.
00:23:54He's into this. He's into me.
00:23:56I might as well kiss my virginity goodbye.
00:24:00It is.
00:24:02It's really important
00:24:04that it's with the right person.
00:24:08How about we go for another first?
00:24:12Pearl, can I take you out?
00:24:16Can I take you out?
00:24:18Like, on a date?
00:24:20Yeah. Like, on a date.
00:24:22Wow! Yes!
00:24:24I mean, yes, of course you can.
00:24:26Great. I'll call you tomorrow.
00:24:28Okay.
00:24:36Oh my god! Aiden just asked me out on a date!
00:24:40Of course he did.
00:24:42Thank you so much for hiding
00:24:44in my closet naked, Ethan.
00:24:46It's all...
00:24:52Oh my god.
00:24:54I've never been on a date before.
00:24:56Relax.
00:24:58Just be yourself.
00:25:00You're pretty awesome.
00:25:02Ethan, I can't just be myself.
00:25:04I go to the library every night.
00:25:06It's not...
00:25:08I don't know what to tell you.
00:25:10I can't go on the date for you.
00:25:12Okay, but just tell me what to do.
00:25:14I mean, you've been on like a million dates.
00:25:16Please, Ethan.
00:25:18Come on. I'll do anything.
00:25:20Now, why does that
00:25:22sound familiar?
00:25:24So is that a yes?
00:25:26Fine.
00:25:28Fine. I...
00:25:30Tomorrow night, I'll pick you up
00:25:32and we'll go on a fake date.
00:25:34A fake date?
00:25:46Too intentional.
00:25:52Too casual.
00:26:16Wow.
00:26:18You clean up nice.
00:26:20Thanks.
00:26:22You...
00:26:24You look...
00:26:26I mean...
00:26:28You look like a completely different person.
00:26:30No offense.
00:26:32There's nothing wrong with the way you looked before.
00:26:34It's just...
00:26:36You look...
00:26:38I just mean you look...
00:26:42You look...
00:26:47I took Ari's advice and got myself
00:26:49some new looks from Sheen's Top Trends page.
00:26:51You look gorgeous.
00:26:57For you.
00:26:59Oh, Ethan.
00:27:01This is sweet for a fake date.
00:27:03Fake or not,
00:27:05I have standards.
00:27:07No one's ever gotten
00:27:09me flowers before.
00:27:11Well, looks like Aiden won't have all your firsts.
00:27:15Um...
00:27:17By the way,
00:27:19if Aiden doesn't get you flowers,
00:27:21second red flag.
00:27:23Second? What was the first red flag?
00:27:25He's a bad kisser.
00:27:27Trust me, I saw the whole thing.
00:27:29He did not know what he was doing.
00:27:31Okay, enough about the kiss.
00:27:33I'm trying to forget about it, okay?
00:27:35Clean slate. Got it.
00:27:37Shall we?
00:27:39Where are we going?
00:27:41Looks good.
00:27:43I can't believe I'm finally at
00:27:45the Starlight Lounge. I've always wanted to go here.
00:27:47Well, I was hoping you'd like it.
00:27:49You know, being a theater major.
00:27:51Best. Fake. Date.
00:27:53Ever.
00:27:55Cheers to that.
00:28:02I was thinking...
00:28:04What other red flags should I
00:28:06look out for?
00:28:08Okay, well, I told you he loves himself.
00:28:10If Aiden talks about
00:28:12Aiden the whole time,
00:28:14major red flag.
00:28:16Okay, but I'm
00:28:18just not that interesting.
00:28:20Just...
00:28:22We're all the library girl.
00:28:24I bet you're a lot more than just that.
00:28:26Try me.
00:28:28Okay, well,
00:28:30I'm graduating first in my class.
00:28:32I am the lead
00:28:34in the spring play.
00:28:36I'm going to Europe
00:28:38this summer.
00:28:40I'm boring you,
00:28:42aren't I?
00:28:44No, not at all.
00:28:46I just learned that you're smart,
00:28:48you're talented,
00:28:50and you're adventurous.
00:28:52Which is a hot threesome.
00:28:54And I know my threesomes.
00:29:04I'm starting to think that people are wrong about you.
00:29:06Hmm?
00:29:08You're kind of a gentleman.
00:29:10Yeah?
00:29:12Well, don't go around spreading that.
00:29:14I need to protect my reputation.
00:29:16Hmm, okay.
00:29:18Don't worry. Your secret's safe with me.
00:29:28Can I ask why, though?
00:29:30Why what?
00:29:32Why the whole
00:29:34never with the same girl twice thing?
00:29:36Uh, no.
00:29:38No, we are not here to talk about me, alright?
00:29:48Okay, Pearl,
00:29:50one really important rule
00:29:52for first dates.
00:29:54What is it?
00:29:56Do not, under any circumstances,
00:29:58order the spaghetti.
00:30:00You've got sauce on your face.
00:30:02It's okay.
00:30:04It's okay.
00:30:18Hey.
00:30:20You made it.
00:30:22This is my favorite place to hike.
00:30:24You're gonna love this view.
00:30:26I already do.
00:30:33Let's go.
00:30:35It's so beautiful.
00:30:37I love being here.
00:30:39So,
00:30:41what do you think?
00:30:43This place is amazing.
00:30:45Yeah, it was totally worth the two miles uphill.
00:30:47Yeah.
00:30:49You know, I can't believe
00:30:51I've never seen you around campus before.
00:30:53I guess I just kind of blend in.
00:30:55You?
00:30:57No way.
00:30:59You stand out, Pearl.
00:31:03Aiden, what the hell?
00:31:05Jessica, what are you doing here?
00:31:07I can't believe you'd move on so quickly.
00:31:09And with her?
00:31:13What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:31:20Let me help you, Pearl.
00:31:22I can help you, Pearl.
00:31:24Guys, it's not a big deal.
00:31:26It's just a sprain.
00:31:28I should be fine in a day or two.
00:31:30Absolutely not.
00:31:32You shouldn't even be on your feet.
00:31:34I can carry you to your room.
00:31:36I think you've helped enough.
00:31:38You caused this, you know.
00:31:40Why are you even here, dude?
00:31:42This has nothing to do with you.
00:31:44Wow, she has Aiden and Aiden fighting over her?
00:31:46She's so lucky.
00:31:50Back off, Aiden.
00:31:52I said I got it.
00:31:54Make me.
00:31:56Aiden!
00:32:01Stop. Enough.
00:32:03This is not helping anyone.
00:32:06Pearl's right.
00:32:08Let's get her back to her door.
00:32:21You okay?
00:32:23Yeah, she's great. Thanks.
00:32:25Don't set her down that hard.
00:32:27I mean if you need anything.
00:32:31Hi, I'm Becky, your neighbor.
00:32:33So weird we haven't met before, right?
00:32:35But if you need anything at all,
00:32:37just let me know.
00:32:39Oh, I actually do think we met before.
00:32:41Where did you get that top? It's so cute.
00:32:43So cute.
00:32:54Let me get this for you.
00:32:58You're so short. It works.
00:33:04Oh, why is everyone staring?
00:33:06Probably because you look so pretty today.
00:33:08Yeah, right.
00:33:10No, they're probably just wondering
00:33:12how I got so lucky to have you carry my bags for me.
00:33:14You know, Pearl,
00:33:16I actually had a good time with you yesterday.
00:33:18Despite, well, everything.
00:33:22Hey, Pearl.
00:33:24Maybe Styx have a library where it's safe.
00:33:26Don't want to hurt your other ankle
00:33:28walking to class.
00:33:30What are they talking about?
00:33:32I don't know.
00:33:40Whoa.
00:33:42That was you?
00:33:44Wait.
00:33:46Pearl, you're Pearl.
00:33:48That weird library girl?
00:33:50I can't believe I didn't recognize you.
00:33:52This is just...
00:33:54I can't.
00:33:56I gotta go.
00:33:58I'm sorry.
00:34:08Pearl,
00:34:10you okay?
00:34:12Do I look okay?
00:34:14It wants nothing to do with me.
00:34:16Everyone's seen that video and everyone's laughing at me.
00:34:20I'm not laughing.
00:34:24You're the only one
00:34:26who would do something like this.
00:34:28I think we both know.
00:34:30Veronica. I know it was her.
00:34:32She told me she had that video of it.
00:34:34Why does she hate me?
00:34:36Look, forget about Veronica.
00:34:38All right? And forget about Aiden.
00:34:40He's not worth your time
00:34:42if he can't see how great you are.
00:34:44Okay, Ethan, it's not like it's that easy.
00:34:46I've liked him forever.
00:34:48I should have known he would never want to be with someone like me.
00:34:50I'm a joke.
00:34:52You're a weird library girl.
00:34:54No, we're not gonna let them win, Pearl.
00:34:56What do you mean?
00:34:58I have an idea.
00:35:00If Veronica wants to play dirty,
00:35:02we'll play dirty.
00:35:04What are you gonna do?
00:35:06I'm gonna ask her out.
00:35:08What?
00:35:12Just trust me.
00:35:16I have to admit,
00:35:18your text was unexpected.
00:35:20You should know better than anyone.
00:35:22I'm full of surprises, Veronica.
00:35:24Especially lately.
00:35:26Being seen with a girl like Pearl Simmons?
00:35:28Very surprising.
00:35:30What do you have against her, anyway?
00:35:32She's just annoying.
00:35:34Like, she's always acting like she's better than everyone else
00:35:36because she's smart.
00:35:38And then, like, trying to get with a guy like Aiden?
00:35:40Please.
00:35:42She needed to be put in her place.
00:35:44So, it was you
00:35:46who posted the video?
00:35:48Of course it was me.
00:35:50I mean, she's so pathetic, it was almost too easy.
00:35:52Did you hear about Aiden's reaction?
00:35:54Priceless.
00:35:56She actually thought she had a chance with him.
00:35:58You really know how to play the game.
00:36:00Don't you, Veronica?
00:36:02Like I said,
00:36:04I like being on top.
00:36:06But enough about Pearl.
00:36:08Let's talk about us.
00:36:14Actually,
00:36:16I gotta go.
00:36:18I just remembered I need to
00:36:20reorganize my sock drawer.
00:36:22Bye.
00:36:26What?
00:36:32Did you get that?
00:36:34Every word.
00:36:46I, uh, I think the video's working.
00:36:52Did you see this?
00:36:54Veronica Steele is
00:36:56totally exposed.
00:36:58She's done for.
00:37:00I never liked her anyway.
00:37:02Mean Girl is so out.
00:37:04Of course it was me.
00:37:06I mean, she's so pathetic,
00:37:08it was almost too easy.
00:37:10No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:37:12This can't be happening!
00:37:17I'm pretty sure
00:37:19the hashtag Team Pearl, it's
00:37:21gonna be everywhere.
00:37:23Thank you, Ethan,
00:37:25for using your platform to help me.
00:37:27It's nothing.
00:37:29No, it's not nothing.
00:37:31No one's ever done anything like this
00:37:33for me before.
00:37:35It...
00:37:37It means everything.
00:37:46Uh, Pearl, I...
00:37:48Now if I can just win Aiden back,
00:37:50everything will be perfect.
00:37:52Uh, yeah, yeah, right.
00:37:54Yeah, let's go
00:37:56make it happen.
00:37:58Okay.
00:38:04Do you really think this is gonna make Aiden jealous?
00:38:06Trust me.
00:38:08By the end of tonight,
00:38:10everyone's gonna be talking about us,
00:38:12including Aiden.
00:38:14So, uh, let's make it look real.
00:38:18How do we do that?
00:38:20Neither of us have ever
00:38:22even been in a relationship.
00:38:24It's easy enough. You know, just hold hands,
00:38:26gaze into each other's eyes,
00:38:28that sort of thing.
00:38:30I can do that.
00:38:32So is this our soft launch or something?
00:38:36There's nothing
00:38:38soft about me, baby.
00:38:40I'm going in hard.
00:38:44Okay.
00:38:56Yo.
00:38:58Dude, isn't that Pearl with Ethan?
00:39:00No way, I didn't even know they were a thing.
00:39:02I thought you guys were literally just Aiden.
00:39:14They look so cute together.
00:39:16Yeah, it's giving total echo.
00:39:18Are the rumors about Ethan's you-know-what true?
00:39:20This is insane.
00:39:22I feel like a celebrity.
00:39:24I told you it'd work.
00:39:26Yeah, if it's working, it's only because of you.
00:39:28Everyone knows your reputation.
00:39:30They probably think I put some spell on you or something.
00:39:34People can change, Pearl.
00:39:44Where's your head tonight, Aiden?
00:39:46You're playing like shit out there.
00:39:48Hi, coach. Sorry.
00:39:56No way.
00:40:00What do you think?
00:40:02I don't know.
00:40:04Do we?
00:40:10It's gotta look real, right?
00:40:12Right.
00:40:16Then I'm gonna kiss you.
00:40:18And like I told you,
00:40:20I'm going in hard.
00:40:22I'm ready.
00:40:36Tough break, man.
00:40:48That was
00:40:50incredible.
00:40:52Magical.
00:40:54Everything my first kiss should have been.
00:41:12Hey.
00:41:18You wanted to talk?
00:41:20Yeah.
00:41:22Pearl, I'm sorry.
00:41:24I shouldn't have just walked out on you the other day.
00:41:26I get it.
00:41:28I'm just a weird library girl.
00:41:30That's not true.
00:41:32I was just surprised.
00:41:34I didn't know how to handle it.
00:41:36But seeing you tonight with Ethan made me realize how dumb that was.
00:41:38Thanks.
00:41:42You know it'd never work out with Ethan, right?
00:41:44They call him the heartbreaker
00:41:46for a reason.
00:41:48I don't know, Aiden.
00:41:50Okay, you really hurt me.
00:41:52I need to think about it, okay?
00:41:54Take all the time you need.
00:41:56I'm not going anywhere, Pearl.
00:42:06I don't know what to do, Ethan.
00:42:08Aiden apologized and
00:42:10you know, he seems really sincere.
00:42:12What exactly did he say?
00:42:14That when he saw the video,
00:42:16he didn't realize who I was and he freaked out.
00:42:18But he said
00:42:20that he wants
00:42:22to try and work things out.
00:42:24Is that what you want?
00:42:26Yeah.
00:42:28Whenever I think about losing my virginity
00:42:30to someone, I still think of him.
00:42:40Okay.
00:43:02This is literally
00:43:04you, Pearl.
00:43:06It's beautiful.
00:43:08It's one of a kind.
00:43:10Look, all I'm saying is you...
00:43:12you deserve the best.
00:43:14And you deserve a guy
00:43:16who's gonna give you the best.
00:43:18Even if that's not me.
00:43:38I'm so happy you agreed to this date.
00:43:40I'm glad we can
00:43:42give this a fresh start.
00:43:44I'll give you anything you want.
00:43:52Shall we toast to that?
00:43:54We shall.
00:44:00So,
00:44:02what are you doing tomorrow night?
00:44:04I'll probably go to the library.
00:44:06I have a big test on Monday,
00:44:08so I need to study for that.
00:44:10So,
00:44:12I was thinking,
00:44:14now that we're giving this another shot,
00:44:16maybe you could ease up on the whole
00:44:18library stuff a bit.
00:44:20What do you mean?
00:44:22Well, you do spend a lot of time in there.
00:44:24Why feed into that dumb nickname?
00:44:26You want me to stop going to the library?
00:44:28Not stop, exactly.
00:44:30Just cut back a little.
00:44:32And these glasses are fine,
00:44:34but all eyes are on you now.
00:44:36On us.
00:44:38And the contacts look so much better.
00:44:40You understand what I'm saying, right?
00:44:44You're embarrassed of me.
00:44:46Of course not.
00:44:48It's just that...
00:44:50You don't want to be seen dating
00:44:52Pearl the library girl, right?
00:44:54Why are you being so difficult about this?
00:44:56You know what?
00:44:58It may have taken me a while
00:45:00to realize this,
00:45:04but I don't need to change for anyone.
00:45:06This was a mistake,
00:45:08and I made the wrong choice.
00:45:26Pearl.
00:45:28What happened?
00:45:30What happened? Talk to me.
00:45:32Me and Aiden,
00:45:34we went on our date today,
00:45:36and it was going really good.
00:45:38Then he told me
00:45:40how I needed to change.
00:45:42I should stop going to the library so much.
00:45:44I should change my look.
00:45:46He wants me to be someone I'm not.
00:45:48And what did you say to him?
00:45:52I told him that
00:45:54that can only be me,
00:45:56and it's not going to work out between us.
00:45:58Yeah.
00:46:00Screw him, Pearl.
00:46:02You're smart, you're sweet and kind,
00:46:04and perfect just the way you are.
00:46:06Don't let anyone
00:46:08tell you otherwise.
00:46:10I'm just disappointed.
00:46:12I thought Aiden was different.
00:46:14Pearl, I, uh...
00:46:18I never thought he was right for you.
00:46:26Veronica posted a picture of me
00:46:28with Aiden tonight.
00:46:30She said I was a cheater.
00:46:32And that I went behind your back.
00:46:34She's gone too far this time.
00:46:36What are we gonna do?
00:46:38I don't know, but we gotta think of something.
00:46:44There goes the cheater.
00:46:46Can't believe she fumbled
00:46:48both Ethan and Aiden.
00:46:50And she's supposed to be smart?
00:46:54I have a plan.
00:46:56What is it?
00:46:58I'm gonna tell the truth.
00:47:00Everything's gonna be okay.
00:47:02It's true, but...
00:47:06Hey, everybody.
00:47:08I have something
00:47:10to set the record straight about.
00:47:12All these rumors about Pearl
00:47:14cheating on me?
00:47:16Yeah, it's total bullshit.
00:47:18Pearl never cheated on me.
00:47:20Because we were never
00:47:22actually dating.
00:47:24We were fake dating
00:47:26to make someone else jealous.
00:47:28But here's the truth.
00:47:30She's one of the most amazing people I've ever met.
00:47:32She's at the top of her class.
00:47:34She's smarter than anyone here.
00:47:36She's also kind.
00:47:38She's funny.
00:47:40She's sweet.
00:47:42She's drop-dead gorgeous.
00:47:44She doesn't deserve any of the shit
00:47:46you guys are saying.
00:47:48Anyone would be lucky to have her.
00:47:50It's impossible
00:47:52not to fall for her.
00:47:54Because...
00:47:56it happened to me.
00:48:04Pearl.
00:48:08I'd take you, Pearl.
00:48:10Exactly the way you are.
00:48:14Ethan.
00:48:16I mean it, Pearl.
00:48:18I've fallen for you.
00:48:20I know I don't have the best
00:48:22reputation or the best track record,
00:48:24but...
00:48:26I want a chance.
00:48:28Just one chance.
00:48:30Ethan, I...
00:48:32Yes.
00:48:34Yes, I...
00:48:36I've been trying to ignore
00:48:38the way I feel about you, but...
00:48:40Why?
00:48:42You see me for me.
00:48:44But how can I ask for anything more than that?
00:48:50I love you.
00:49:06What about the whole
00:49:08never with the same girl twice thing?
00:49:10You of all people should know
00:49:12not to believe everything you hear.
00:49:14But I do know that one of those rumors
00:49:16is true.
00:49:18What rumor is that?
00:49:20The rumor that Ethan Hart has the biggest
00:49:22you-know-what on campus.
00:49:28This is so messed up.
00:49:30They've made fools of us.
00:49:32And I'm not gonna let them
00:49:34get away with it.
00:49:36I cannot believe
00:49:38that just happened.
00:49:40Me neither.
00:49:42I didn't plan on spilling my guts today, but...
00:49:44when I saw you, I just
00:49:46couldn't hold it in any longer.
00:49:48I had no idea that you felt that way about me.
00:49:50I have, for a while now.
00:49:52I just...
00:49:54I just couldn't tell you.
00:49:56Why not?
00:49:58You had a thing for Aiden, and...
00:50:00I...
00:50:02I don't know the first thing about being
00:50:04a...
00:50:06a boyfriend.
00:50:08So are we official now?
00:50:10Are you my boyfriend?
00:50:12I'd like to be if you'll have me.
00:50:16I just...
00:50:20I would like that.
00:50:22Because I like you.
00:50:24I do.
00:50:26And I just... I guess I thought
00:50:28a popular guy like you
00:50:30would never be into a girl like me.
00:50:32I'm very
00:50:34into you.
00:50:36I don't...
00:50:38want to mess things up
00:50:40down the road.
00:50:42No, it's... it's not really about that right now.
00:50:44Because right now,
00:50:46today,
00:50:48is pretty awesome.
00:51:10Look!
00:51:12Aiden Pearl!
00:51:14I wish I could make him smile like that.
00:51:16As if he'd ever notice you.
00:51:18He never looks away from her.
00:51:24Make a wish.
00:51:26I wish to
00:51:28skip my next class because
00:51:30I am definitely about to fail this test.
00:51:32You? No way.
00:51:34You're like the smartest person I know.
00:51:36I was hoping you'd rub off on me, actually.
00:51:38Oh yeah? Is that why you're dating me?
00:51:40I mean, it's not the only reason.
00:51:42I mean,
00:51:44you got a sexy butt.
00:51:52Oh, okay. I have to go. I'm gonna miss the test.
00:51:54Okay, okay.
00:51:58I don't think I've ever seen you this happy before.
00:52:00I feel happy.
00:52:02I mean, it's been a week.
00:52:04I haven't messed things up. Yet.
00:52:06Well, there's always tomorrow.
00:52:08Yeah.
00:52:10Yeah, there's always tomorrow.
00:52:38Hey, Ethan.
00:52:40Where are you off to with that?
00:52:42None of your business, Veronica.
00:52:44Let me guess.
00:52:46Library girl?
00:52:48Yeah.
00:52:50My girlfriend.
00:52:52So, if you don't mind.
00:52:54Hey, what do you think you're doing
00:52:56with a girl like Pearl?
00:52:58Not this again.
00:53:00No, I'm being serious this time.
00:53:02Pearl's smart.
00:53:04Like, really smart.
00:53:06Her parents are lawyers.
00:53:08And they're loaded.
00:53:10I'm talking
00:53:12house in the suburbs,
00:53:14house on the water,
00:53:16and you,
00:53:18well, let's be honest.
00:53:20You're just a C student.
00:53:22A former trailer park kid
00:53:24with a baseball scholarship
00:53:26that's not exactly heading
00:53:28to the big leagues.
00:53:32It's a low blow for Attica.
00:53:34Even for you.
00:53:36Just calling it like I see it.
00:53:38You're not exactly
00:53:40her type,
00:53:42Ethan.
00:53:44No matter how
00:53:46hard
00:53:48you try.
00:53:52You're just good for
00:53:54a temporary distraction.
00:53:56You don't get to decide what Pearl deserves.
00:53:58Or me.
00:54:00Maybe not.
00:54:02I do know that she deserves better
00:54:04than losing her virginity
00:54:06to the heartbreaker.
00:54:08Sooner or later she'll realize that
00:54:10you're not what she needs.
00:54:12And when that happens,
00:54:14you'll go right back
00:54:16to being the one night stand guy.
00:54:20Have a good night, Ethan.
00:54:32Hi, Ethan!
00:54:34You're here!
00:54:36And I come bearing gifts.
00:54:46Ethan,
00:54:48Ethan, this is
00:54:50the prettiest dress I've ever seen.
00:54:54It's your size, so
00:54:56it'll fit perfectly.
00:54:58How did you get it so fast?
00:55:00How did you get it so fast?
00:55:02Well, I knew you'd pass, so
00:55:04I ordered it earlier.
00:55:06You're so sweet.
00:55:08Come in, come in.
00:55:10Oh, I see you brought champagne.
00:55:12Uh, yeah.
00:55:14Actually, Pearl,
00:55:16I can't stay.
00:55:22I can't stay.
00:55:24What?
00:55:26You just got here.
00:55:28I have this thing,
00:55:30this paperwork
00:55:32that I gotta do.
00:55:34Can your paperwork wait?
00:55:36Just a little bit.
00:55:38Come on, I really, really want to celebrate
00:55:40with you tonight, if you know what I mean.
00:55:44I do, too.
00:55:46But, yeah,
00:55:48I should really go.
00:55:50Can I, um,
00:55:52can I walk you to class tomorrow morning?
00:55:54Um, yeah.
00:55:56Okay, uh, I'll see you then.
00:56:00I'll leave this with you.
00:56:04Good night.
00:56:10Good night.
00:56:20Hey, so I was thinking we could grab lunch after class.
00:56:22Does that sound good?
00:56:24Yeah, sure.
00:56:26Is everything okay?
00:56:28You seem a little bit off lately.
00:56:30It's nothing.
00:56:32Just a lot on my mind.
00:56:34Okay, do you want to talk about it?
00:56:36Not really.
00:56:38Okay.
00:56:40Hey,
00:56:42I saved that bottle of champagne,
00:56:44so I was thinking maybe you'd want to come over to me.
00:56:46I'd love to.
00:56:48I just, I have a lot of studying
00:56:50I gotta do, but, um,
00:56:52I'll see you next time, okay?
00:56:58Have a good class.
00:57:00Talk to you later.
00:57:06He sure was in a hurry to leave.
00:57:08Who can blame him?
00:57:10I'd be scared to get close to that sweater, too.
00:57:12Is it alive?
00:57:14Does it just look that way?
00:57:22No.
00:57:36Oh, yikes.
00:57:38You really do need my help.
00:57:40Look, Ethan's being weird.
00:57:42He's avoiding me,
00:57:44he is giving me forehead kisses,
00:57:46and every time I invite him over,
00:57:48he says no.
00:57:50Oh my god.
00:57:54He doesn't want to have sex with me.
00:57:56Whoa, slow down.
00:57:58What did you just say?
00:58:00Ethan doesn't want me.
00:58:02Didn't he just
00:58:04declare his love for you on the quad?
00:58:06And he literally harassed me
00:58:08to find the perfect dress for you.
00:58:10We spent like four hours on Sheehan,
00:58:12and you know they have all the clothes in the world
00:58:14to choose from.
00:58:16Yes, yes, but,
00:58:18I mean,
00:58:20he doesn't want to do anything physical,
00:58:22he doesn't, he doesn't even
00:58:24want to touch me.
00:58:26That doesn't
00:58:28really sound like Ethan.
00:58:30Maybe he just thinks you want to take things slow.
00:58:32No, he knows I want
00:58:34to lose my virginity.
00:58:36I don't understand what's happening.
00:58:38He doesn't even
00:58:40want to be alone with me.
00:58:42Well, I don't blame him.
00:58:44I mean, that sweater looks feral.
00:58:46I just,
00:58:48I just want to be irresistible for once.
00:58:50Okay,
00:58:52calm down.
00:58:54There is no way that Ethan doesn't want to sleep with you.
00:58:56I mean, he sleeps with everyone.
00:58:58Not helping, Aria.
00:59:00Okay, men are
00:59:02visual creatures.
00:59:04They like spontaneity.
00:59:06What are you suggesting?
00:59:10The oldest trick in the book.
00:59:12What is this for?
00:59:14To hide this.
00:59:16No, no,
00:59:18I know what you're suggesting,
00:59:20and I'm not doing that.
00:59:22It's foolproof.
00:59:28I can't believe I'm doing this.
00:59:30It's foolproof.
00:59:32That tracks because I feel like a fool.
00:59:34Shut up, you look hot.
00:59:36I look like
00:59:38Carmen Sandiego.
00:59:40Carmen Sandiego.
00:59:42No, Ethan is going to love this.
00:59:44Go get your man.
00:59:46You can do this.
00:59:48Confidence is key.
00:59:50Introduce Ethan to your sexy side.
01:00:00Hey, Ethan.
01:00:02Pearl,
01:00:04what are you doing?
01:00:06Being spontaneous.
01:00:10What?
01:00:28Pearl.
01:00:32I thought that you'd be up
01:00:34for spending some time together.
01:00:36Help me get rid of something.
01:00:40I think we should talk.
01:00:42About what? Don't you want me?
01:00:44I do want you.
01:00:46A lot.
01:00:48But I want to do
01:00:50things right,
01:00:52and I don't want to jump into sex.
01:00:54This relationship stuff, it's new to me.
01:00:56I want to be a good boyfriend.
01:00:58I want to do things the right way.
01:01:00I want to be what you need.
01:01:02You are what I need.
01:01:04Look, I know you're eager to lose your virginity,
01:01:06but I don't think we should rush things.
01:01:08Okay?
01:01:12How about we go on a date?
01:01:14Tomorrow night.
01:01:16Just the two of us.
01:01:18A date sounds nice.
01:01:20Great. I'll see you tomorrow night.
01:01:22Okay. I'll see you tomorrow.
01:01:38Ethan,
01:01:40you look
01:01:42incredible.
01:01:44And I look, uh...
01:01:46I should have worn that gorgeous dress.
01:01:48You look perfect.
01:01:50You ready?
01:01:52Okay.
01:02:06Oh, I'm sorry.
01:02:08No, no, I'm sorry.
01:02:10Screw me.
01:02:12I can't even sit down right.
01:02:22I'll order the filet mignon,
01:02:24and my date will have the salmon.
01:02:26I was actually kind of in a mood
01:02:28for pasta.
01:02:30Oh, I'm sorry.
01:02:32I didn't realize I was...
01:02:34It's fine.
01:02:42Are you okay tonight, Ethan?
01:02:44Yeah. Yeah, why do you ask?
01:02:46I don't know. You just seem kind of stiff.
01:02:48Stiff?
01:02:50Okay, just
01:02:52formal?
01:02:54I mean, this is a date, right?
01:02:56Right.
01:02:58Um, no, you're right.
01:03:00Just forget I even said anything.
01:03:08I'm sorry. I'm just...
01:03:10I'm really bad at this.
01:03:12No, no, you're not.
01:03:14Come in. We can talk about it.
01:03:16I don't...
01:03:18I don't think that's a good idea.
01:03:20Talk to you later, Pearl.
01:03:28Pearl, hey!
01:03:30Can I talk to you for a minute?
01:03:32We don't have anything to talk about.
01:03:34I deserve that.
01:03:36But I truly do just want to apologize.
01:03:38For what? You have a long list of things to apologize for.
01:03:40I know.
01:03:42But the truth is,
01:03:44I've been jealous.
01:03:46I've had a thing for Ethan for
01:03:48a long time.
01:03:50But it's clear that
01:03:52you two have something special.
01:03:54Anyone can tell just looking at you two.
01:03:56Really? Definitely.
01:03:58And it's not just Ethan I've been jealous of.
01:04:00I've been jealous of you too.
01:04:02Jealous of me?
01:04:04I mean,
01:04:06I know you're graduating first in the class,
01:04:08and I'm graduating second.
01:04:10Unfortunately, my parents
01:04:12are never going to let me live that down.
01:04:14Wow.
01:04:16I'm sorry. I had no idea.
01:04:18Anyway,
01:04:20I want to make it up to you.
01:04:22I'm having a sleepover party tonight.
01:04:24Just girls. No drama.
01:04:26We can hang out,
01:04:28gossip, and have fun.
01:04:30I don't know.
01:04:32I don't really do those.
01:04:34Oh, it'll be a blast. I promise.
01:04:36You know what? Yeah.
01:04:38Okay, that sounds like fun.
01:04:40Um,
01:04:42not really doing anything tonight.
01:04:44Fantastic. Okay, my place?
01:04:46Around 7. See you there?
01:04:52Are you serious?
01:04:54Okay.
01:04:56Pearl, you made it!
01:04:58Come on in. Thanks for inviting me.
01:05:00Oh, there's so many of you guys here.
01:05:02Lots of girls on this campus.
01:05:04But you'll love them.
01:05:06And I think you'll find
01:05:08you have a lot in common.
01:05:10It's so nice to meet you, Pearl.
01:05:12You and Ethan are so cute together.
01:05:14I wish I could have a boyfriend as sweet as him.
01:05:18That's so sweet.
01:05:20So Pearl, give us the deets.
01:05:22Are you and Ethan having sex yet?
01:05:24Um,
01:05:26no. We actually
01:05:28haven't.
01:05:30Oh my gosh. How is it possible
01:05:32you haven't jumped his bones yet?
01:05:34Seriously? I'd be all over that.
01:05:36Well, uh, we're kind of
01:05:38taking things slow.
01:05:40I'm a virgin.
01:05:42Really? That's
01:05:44interesting.
01:05:46Very interesting.
01:05:48Because I think
01:05:50we all know
01:05:52that
01:05:54Ethan doesn't like to take things slow.
01:05:56We all?
01:05:58Every girl in this room.
01:06:00Do you mean...
01:06:02Yes.
01:06:04We've all had sex
01:06:06with Ethan Hart.
01:06:08Well,
01:06:10except for you.
01:06:14Don't worry.
01:06:16We're not gonna steal him
01:06:18or anything.
01:06:20Rich girl. I mean, he's all charm,
01:06:22but no commitment.
01:06:24And don't get me started on his reputation.
01:06:26I mean, he's amazing in bed,
01:06:28but his reputation?
01:06:30He's not a
01:06:32one-woman kind of guy.
01:06:34Roxy and I would know.
01:06:36He had us at the same time.
01:06:38As you can see,
01:06:40Ethan would sleep with
01:06:42anyone, but
01:06:44for some reason,
01:06:46he won't touch you.
01:06:48I wonder why that is.
01:06:50The man loves sex, so there must be a reason.
01:06:52Maybe it's those glasses.
01:06:54Or the clothes.
01:06:56Don't be shallow, ladies.
01:06:58I mean, I'm sure
01:07:00none of that stuff helps, but
01:07:02I think
01:07:04it's because you're a virgin.
01:07:06It's obvious you don't have what it takes
01:07:08to satisfy
01:07:10a man like Ethan.
01:07:12I...
01:07:14I have to go.
01:07:16Hey.
01:07:24Hey, you've reached Ethan.
01:07:26Please leave a message.
01:07:28Damn it, Ethan. Where are you?
01:07:40Pearl, what happened?
01:07:42Everything.
01:07:46Nothing.
01:07:48Talk to me. What's going on?
01:07:50Just Veronica and her friends
01:07:52just saying horrible things about Ethan that
01:07:54he's a heartbreaker
01:07:56and he sleeps around with everyone.
01:07:58Well, everyone except for me.
01:08:00I'm sorry, but I knew this would happen.
01:08:02What do you mean?
01:08:04I knew he would hurt you, Pearl.
01:08:06And I'm sure all of that was hard to hear, but
01:08:08he's got a reputation for a reason.
01:08:10He's not a good guy.
01:08:12That's not true. He's good to me.
01:08:14You deserve someone so much better
01:08:16than a guy who plays games.
01:08:24What are you doing?
01:08:26I thought that...
01:08:28No, you thought wrong.
01:08:30I have a boyfriend, Aiden.
01:08:32Yeah, well, who doesn't give a shit?
01:08:34I care about you, Pearl.
01:08:36The only person you care about is yourself.
01:08:38That's why it will never work out between us.
01:08:40You're making a mistake.
01:08:42No, the only mistake I would make
01:08:44is to cheat on Ethan,
01:08:46and it's not one that I intend to make.
01:08:48Now go.
01:08:50Go.
01:09:00Go.
01:09:08That was quite the show you put on.
01:09:10I got the perfect picture of the kiss.
01:09:12There was no kiss.
01:09:14I don't care about the picture or any of this anymore.
01:09:16I'm done.
01:09:18I don't need you anymore anyway.
01:09:32What the fuck is wrong with you, huh?
01:09:34I told you to stay away from Pearl.
01:09:36Don't do this, Ethan. You don't know the truth, though.
01:09:38What I know is you're a liar.
01:09:40No wonder Jessica broke up with you.
01:09:42You knew me and Pearl were together,
01:09:44and you still can't stay away.
01:09:46Are you really, though?
01:09:48Because I heard you're not together at all.
01:09:50What are you doing? Stop it!
01:09:58Guys, stop it!
01:10:00Stop! Someone's gonna get hurt!
01:10:02Guys, please, stop!
01:10:04Call security!
01:10:06Alright, that's enough!
01:10:08Both of you, stop that!
01:10:10Show's over, everyone!
01:10:12Get back to class!
01:10:16Is she really the reason for all of this?
01:10:18Can't you just pick one of them?
01:10:20This is all your fault.
01:10:22Now it's causing problems for everyone.
01:10:24If Aiden is kicked off the team,
01:10:26there goes our season.
01:10:28I'm sorry. I didn't mean for any of this to happen.
01:10:30I was just...
01:10:36I'm sorry.
01:10:44Aiden, are you okay?
01:10:46Aiden, I can explain.
01:10:48You don't have to explain anything.
01:10:50Just hear me out, okay?
01:10:52What happened with Aiden, it's not what it looked like.
01:10:54I would never, ever, ever cheat on you.
01:10:56It doesn't matter.
01:10:58Of course it matters.
01:11:00It's better this way.
01:11:02What do you mean?
01:11:04I'm good for one thing,
01:11:06and that's all I've ever been good at.
01:11:08And you deserve more than that.
01:11:10No, don't talk about yourself that way.
01:11:12It's the truth, Pearl.
01:11:14We were never going to work out.
01:11:16Even if it wasn't this,
01:11:18something would have broken us up.
01:11:20You're breaking up with me?
01:11:30If you're going to end things
01:11:32without so much of a conversation,
01:11:34at least look at me and tell me that.
01:11:38I'm sorry.
01:11:54I knew I'd find you here.
01:11:56Where else
01:11:58would the library girl be?
01:12:00Yet another pity party for one.
01:12:02You and Ethan,
01:12:04both alone and feeling sorry for yourselves.
01:12:06I don't want to talk about Ethan.
01:12:08Then just listen, okay?
01:12:10Because I have something I want to say.
01:12:12Ethan had it rough growing up,
01:12:14and he thinks that he's less than because of it.
01:12:16In his eyes, he went to college
01:12:18and he finally got to be somebody.
01:12:20The heartbreaker.
01:12:22A guy who never sleeps with a girl twice,
01:12:24and...
01:12:26The guy who has the biggest uniwant on campus.
01:12:28I was trying to skip that.
01:12:30Anyway, he played into it.
01:12:32And he thinks that that's all that he's good for.
01:12:36And then he met you.
01:12:38And I think he's actually trying to be different.
01:12:40I was playing into it too.
01:12:42I mean, I was treating him like a piece of meat.
01:12:44No, it is nobody's fault.
01:12:46He broke up with you because
01:12:48he's convinced that he's not the guy
01:12:50that he thinks that you need.
01:12:52He is the guy I need.
01:12:54Then show him, okay?
01:12:56I'm tired of his sulking,
01:12:58and I think he has been wearing these same jeans all week.
01:13:02Okay.
01:13:04I need to do something special.
01:13:06Well, great time for a big gesture.
01:13:08His birthday is tomorrow.
01:13:10Perfect.
01:13:12Okay.
01:13:14Thank you, Aria.
01:13:16Okay.
01:13:24Uh, just a minute.
01:13:28Hey, Pearl.
01:13:30I hope I'm not interrupting.
01:13:32What do you want?
01:13:34I just wanted to apologize to you for what I did.
01:13:36I know I messed things up between you and Ethan,
01:13:38and I'm really sorry for that.
01:13:40Okay, well, you apologized, so you can go now.
01:13:42Look, there's something else you should know.
01:13:44She's dangerous.
01:13:46What you've seen so far is only the tip of the iceberg.
01:13:48Okay, what are you talking about?
01:13:50I think she has something on Ethan.
01:13:52She never told me what it was,
01:13:54just referred to it as a last resort.
01:13:56Okay, I...
01:13:58I appreciate the warning,
01:14:00but I'm done with Veronica's games.
01:14:02I'm not letting her mess with my head any longer.
01:14:04I'm done.
01:14:06Just be careful.
01:14:08She's not someone you want to cross.
01:14:10Ethan's a lucky guy.
01:14:12I'll see you, Pearl.
01:14:24Ethan!
01:14:26You need to come quickly!
01:14:28Pearl's hurt.
01:14:40Happy birthday.
01:14:42Pearl, what's going on?
01:14:44Are you hurt?
01:14:46I told her not to tell you I was hurt.
01:14:48So this is a setup?
01:14:50No, no, this is not a setup.
01:14:52I just wanted to do something special for you,
01:14:54and I knew you wouldn't come on your own,
01:14:56so I just had...
01:14:58I can't do this right now.
01:15:00No, no, no, Ethan.
01:15:02Please, please just listen to me.
01:15:10Ethan, wait.
01:15:12Ethan, please.
01:15:14I shouldn't have pressured you about sets.
01:15:16I...
01:15:18You're so much more than that,
01:15:20and I hate myself for doing that to you.
01:15:22I don't blame you for breaking up with me.
01:15:24That's not why I broke up with you.
01:15:26I...
01:15:28I'm scared, Pearl.
01:15:30I'm scared of messing things up.
01:15:32Hell, I already have.
01:15:34I...
01:15:36I took the first chance to run away,
01:15:38I took the first chance to run away
01:15:40because I can't face the possibility
01:15:42of failing you.
01:15:44You can never fail me,
01:15:46Ethan.
01:15:48Look, do you remember what I told you about this necklace?
01:15:50It's beautiful and
01:15:52one of a kind.
01:15:54That's you, too.
01:15:56Look,
01:15:58it doesn't matter where we came from
01:16:00or what people think about us.
01:16:02Ever since I met you, I've been happy.
01:16:04I've really been happy.
01:16:06And I know we can make this work.
01:16:08You don't have to be
01:16:10perfect.
01:16:12You just have to be you.
01:16:18I'm sorry for running away.
01:16:20I...
01:16:22I just don't know how to handle everything.
01:16:24It's okay.
01:16:26We can take things slow. We don't need to rush into anything.
01:16:28Okay?
01:16:36Okay.
01:16:44Let's make things official
01:16:46again.
01:16:48My frat's throwing a semi-formal tomorrow night.
01:16:50Let's go together.
01:16:52I'd love to.
01:16:54Was that Chinese I saw back there?
01:16:56It was.
01:16:58It's your favorite. It's your birthday hat.
01:17:00Get it.
01:17:02And I have another surprise.
01:17:04What is it?
01:17:08Best birthday ever.
01:17:10I mean...
01:17:18What the hell are you doing here?
01:17:22I heard that you and Pearl made up.
01:17:24How sweet.
01:17:26Too bad I have something to
01:17:28change your mind.
01:17:30Is that...
01:17:32A little
01:17:34video of our night together?
01:17:36Mmm. You were so passionate
01:17:38I had to get it all on camera.
01:17:40Delete it. Now.
01:17:42No.
01:17:44I don't think I will.
01:17:46In fact, if you don't break up with Pearl for good,
01:17:48then I'll release it to everyone.
01:17:50She wouldn't dare.
01:17:52It'd be easy enough to blur out my face.
01:17:54I mean, you're the star of the show anyway.
01:17:56Why are you doing
01:17:58this to me? Because I can.
01:18:00Because Pearl doesn't get to have
01:18:02everything.
01:18:04So either break up with her
01:18:06or I'll show
01:18:08this video to the entire world.
01:18:12You're blackmailing me.
01:18:14And I'm going to win.
01:18:18I told you.
01:18:20I like being on top.
01:18:28Where is he?
01:18:30Wow, Pearl.
01:18:32That's quite the fit.
01:18:34Did you dress up for Ethan?
01:18:36Because I heard that he ditched you.
01:18:38Looks like you're the only one
01:18:40who didn't get the memo.
01:18:42No, no.
01:18:44Ethan would never do that.
01:18:46Oh, really? Then where is he?
01:18:48I'm sure he's coming. He's probably just running late.
01:18:50Oh, sweetheart, we didn't say
01:18:52he wasn't coming. We said he
01:18:54ditched you.
01:18:56For another date.
01:18:58What are you talking about?
01:19:18Pearl, can we talk?
01:19:20Ethan, what's going on?
01:19:22Why are you with her?
01:19:24Pearl, I...
01:19:26I need to be honest.
01:19:28This isn't working out.
01:19:30No, no. We just talked last night.
01:19:32We're going to take things slow and
01:19:34everything's going to be fine.
01:19:36I know, I know, but I'm not the right guy for you.
01:19:38You should be with someone like Aiden.
01:19:40I'm not good for you.
01:19:42He's just being realistic, Pearl.
01:19:44You see, he's not really the
01:19:46settle-down type.
01:19:48Ethan, please don't do that.
01:19:50Please.
01:19:52Ethan, please don't do that.
01:19:54I'm sorry, Pearl.
01:19:56It's just better this way.
01:19:58Don't worry. I'll take care of him
01:20:00for you.
01:20:02I thought you cared about me. Are you going to cry?
01:20:04I heard the library's a
01:20:06great place for that.
01:20:14Finally. Get you alone.
01:20:16How about we have a little fun?
01:20:18What's the rush?
01:20:20Let's talk first.
01:20:22Talk? Who are you?
01:20:24And what have you done with Ethan Hart?
01:20:28What are you doing?
01:20:32Hey! Give it back!
01:20:34Not until this is done.
01:20:40That's just one copy of it.
01:20:42Then we're going to sit here until you tell me where every copy is.
01:20:44And then I'm going to destroy them.
01:20:46Or what?
01:20:48I'm going to turn to the police for blackmail
01:20:50and possession of non-consensual pornography.
01:20:52You wouldn't dare.
01:20:54Try me.
01:21:04Did you delete it?
01:21:06Every last copy.
01:21:08We even went back to her dorm room
01:21:10and I got it off her hard drive.
01:21:12But I don't think we have to worry about her anymore.
01:21:14She's spooked.
01:21:16I hope so.
01:21:18But she does follow through.
01:21:20One call to my parents, she'll be in court.
01:21:22That's what I told her.
01:21:32We make a good team, don't we?
01:21:34We do.
01:21:36Your acting chops are kind of impressive.
01:21:38It's kind of hot.
01:21:40Me fake breaking up with you
01:21:42gets you hot?
01:21:44It's kind of my thing.
01:21:46Let's hope we don't have to do that ever again.
01:21:48Because that was enough drama to last us a lifetime.
01:21:50Tell me about it.
01:21:52I kind of miss my quiet nights in the library.
01:21:56Yeah, it's pretty nice.
01:21:58It's quiet.
01:22:00Private.
01:22:06It reminds me of a fantasy.
01:22:10Let me guess.
01:22:14Nervous.
01:22:20Nerdy girl
01:22:22is all about the quiet studious life
01:22:24surprises you with her adventurous side.
01:22:26That's exactly it.
01:22:28Why don't we work on making that fantasy
01:22:30come true, heartbreaker?
01:22:32There's nothing I'd love more.
01:22:34Part of a library girl.
01:22:44Part of a library girl.
