## Full Summary

Kimberly wakes up and looks back over her shoulder to see Nico in the bed with her. She sends Bela a text saying she slept with Nico and then startles when Bela immediately tries to FaceTime with her. She silences the call, then texts Bela that she's still in the bed with him. Bela keeps probing her with questions. Nico wakes up and asks if the noise is her phone. She tosses her phone away and lies, saying it was an Amber alert. Nico says he didn't expect last night to happen, but he's happy it did. He asks if it was her first time and she says no and pretends she's had sex a lot. He asks if they can not tell Leighton and Kimberly agrees. Bela once made a comment about Nico's body and Leighton got so bad that she snapped a pen in half. Nico says it's settled. They won't mention last night or this morning. Kimberly is confused until Nico ducks under the sheet and makes his way between her legs.

Bela and Whitney ask Kimberly for more details. Kimberly says she won't kiss and tell, but is astonished by how much better the sex is with Nico than it was with Max, even though she was in love with Max. Whitney isn't surprised. Bela is upset that Kimberly won't tell them anything. Kimberly says it's amazing and she can't stop thinking about it. They're still talking about it when Leighton joins them and asks who Kimberly is talking about. Kimberly lies and says it's the meteorologist from back home. Travis comes up to the table and says he's started his own a cappella group after not getting into any of the groups on campus. They're having a concert tomorrow and he makes it clear he expects all of them to come.

Leighton comes into Whitney and Kimberly's room and asks Whitney for an old workout jacket. The Women's Center is going to help at a horse farm and she doesn't want a horse chewing on one of her nice jackets. She sends Leighton to get one out of her closet. Leighton takes it and finds a note in the pocket from Dalton. She reads it and realizes Whitney was having an affair with him. Whitney makes Leighton promise not to tell anyone. Leighton promises not to say anything, but doesn't think it's a big deal because she's been making out with bartenders since she was fourteen. Whitney is disturbed by that, but finds it reassuring. Leighton offers to bail on the Women's Center thing if Whitney wants to talk about it. Whitney says no, but Leighton has already used her as an excuse.

Bela is struggling to write her final Catullan submission. It'll determine the rest of her comedy career. Kimberly assures her that she's funny and her work is good. Kimberly gets a text and Bela notes that she and Nico have been texting non-stop. Kimberly says she needs to put her phone away and focus because she has a six-hour shift at Sips plus she has homework to catch up on.

Kimberly and Nico have sex.

Kimberly walks into Sips with a smile on her face. She apologizes for being late, saying she got locked out of her room. Her phone chimes with a text and she races back out, saying she'll be back in twenty minutes.

Kimberly and Nico have sex again.

Kimberly says she has to help a friend with something and she'll be back in fourteen minutes.

Kimberly and Nico have sex again.

Kimberly says her dorm is having an emergency and she'll be back in eight and a half minutes.

Kimberly and Nico have sex again. They knock over a lamp.

Leighton is trying to talk to Whitney, but Whitney is distracted. She points out Canaan to Leighton and says they hooked up. Leighton says he's hot and that's the kind of guy she should be going for. She tells Whitney to go over and talk to him, but Whitney thinks she might need to wait before jumping into something new. Leighton says the best way to get over someone is to start seeing someone even hotter right away. Whitney gets up to go talk to Canaan. He invites her to sit down with him.

Bela talks about her Catullan submission while Milo goes down on her. He's reviewing her work while he does that and insists he wants to do both at the same time.

Kimberly runs into Sips, where Roger tells her she's late again. He says she's on thin ice. He sends her to mop the floor. After he's walked away, Lila asks her why she keeps coming to work late. Kimberly tells her about Nico. A customer tries to order, but Lila waves him off in favor of continuing to talk to Kimberly. Kimberly admits that having sex with him is all she can think about. She skipped all her classes yesterday even though she barely has a C in Econ. Lila tells her to ask Professor Bennett for extra credit. Lila did that last year.

Eric watches as Jeff adds his submission to the box. He congratulates him for getting it in two minutes before the deadline and promises to read it last. Nearby, Carla and Bela talk about Jeff's dated humor. Eric closes the box and says if anyone's late, they're out of luck. Ryan thanks them all for their hard work and says they're looking forward to reading all of it. Eric says if they choose any new members, tonight will be tap night. They'll come find the new writers in their rooms and whisk them away for hours of traditions that they can never tell anyone else about. He says they probably won't pick anyone, but Evangeline says they'll probably pick between 2-4 new people. He pulls the submissions out of the box to hold onto until the board can read them, but at first glance, he sees some embarrassing font choices. As the crowd disperses, Jeff asks Ryan if they get to see the upstairs rooms if they get picked. Ryan says he'll sneak the hopefuls up right now since no one will be back until 8.

Leighton gets a text from Whitney thanking her because she's seeing Canaan tonight. Nearby, Alicia and Ginger are talking about catfishing and how Ginger got catfished by her cousin again. Alicia says she needs to set boundaries with him. Tova comes in and apologizes for being late. It's over between them and Beth. They were supposed to go to Beth's house for Thanksgiving. Beth's parents were cool with her being a lesbian, but thought Tova might be too much for them. They never met a non-binary person before, so Beth wanted them to femme it up. Leighton says, "Fuck that." and Alicia asks her to let them know quickly which side she's on. Leighton says Tova's, obviously. When she first started coming to the Women's Center, she thought they all sucked, but then she got to know them and thinks they're all pretty great. Tova in particular is almost too cool to be there and coming there anyway makes them somehow even cooler. It's Beth's loss. Ginger asks Leighton about how she pointed at her in particularly when she was talking about not liking people because of their personalities, but Leighton denies doing that.

Professor Bennett says he'll happily offer Kimberly extra credit for helping him with his research. He shows her what he's working on and explains what he needs her to do. She says she understands, so he leaves to go to a meeting while she works on that. After he leaves, Nico texts Kimberly asking where she is.

Jeff, Bela, and Carla walk around. They're in awe of all the pictures on the wall of comedy greats and a real cue card from SNL. Ryan is impressed with Bela's knowledge of comedy history. When Jeff sees this, he decides to leave and thanks Ryan for showing them around.

At Katherine Johnson House, Canaan introduces Whitney. Jayla remembers her and says the last time she was there, she stood in the corner for so long that Jayla thought she was her mom's secret service. Darius is shocked that Canaan brought a girl back to the dorm, because he never introduces girls to them. Jayla asks if Whitney's staying for dinner. They're doing a nacho bar and they go hard with the toppings station. Whitney says she has to leave in a bit to go to an a cappella show. When they question that, she says she's going against her will.

Bela is impressed with the autograph wall, where many famous comedians have signed. Bela's worried about the final deliberations but Ryan assures her that he's voting for her. She doesn't think Eric likes her, but he says Eric doesn't like anyone. He regularly calls Ryan a talentless hack, despite being his best friend and roommate. He tells her not to worry about Eric. Bela spots another signature and is talking about it when Ryan pushes himself into her back. Bela pushes him off and says she doesn't want to do whatever that is. She excuses herself and leaves.

Kimberly and Nico are getting undressed in Bennett's office when Bennett suddenly returns.

Kimberly and Nico sit across from Bennett. Nico tries to talk full responsibility and gives Bennett a fake name. Kimberly spoils it when she asks if Nico is a nickname. Kimberly apologizes to Bennett and asks for one more chance. Bennett says she's had plenty of chances, but she's just not doing well.

Kimberly tells Whitney she thinks she's a sex addict. Whitney doubts that, but Kimberly says they had sex six times today. It was almost seven, but a professor walked in on them. Everything she sees makes her think about having sex with him. Leighton joins them and asks if they can just take a quick picture as proof and then leave. Whitney suggests cheering really loudly at the end of the first song then leaving. Bela joins them and says her final submission is in, but she's pretty sure she's not getting in. Travis introduces The AcaFellas. They start their performance. Bela, Whitney, Kimberly, and Leighton cheer loudly, then sneak out.

Leighton tells Alicia that Whitney is meeting up with Canaan yet again and says she loves it. Alicia is happily surprised that she's invested in the happiness of someone else. Leighton says she's definitely the most normal of the three roommates. Also, she's pretty good at giving dating advice. Alicia reminds her that Leighton introduces her as a business acquaintance to a cashier. Leighton says she's not a showy person. She doesn't need to advertise that she has a girlfriend. Alicia asks her about her use of the word girlfriend. Leighton asks if she does have a girlfriend and Alicia says she does. They kiss.

Whitney goes back to Katherine Johnson House, where they welcome her back. She says she couldn't stop thinking about nachos.

Bela is sitting alone in the dorm room when the Catullan writers come in chanting her name. Eric puts a crown on her head and says she's been selected. She accepts immediately. Evangeline tells her her packet was amazing and she deserves this. Jo tells her she's a genius.

Kimberly proposes not having sex to Nico. He proposes alternatives and she says she can't stay that late because she has to go to study. Nico says he can help with her econ grade.

Nico shows Kimberly a filing cabinet where Theta keeps copies of exams and finals that professors never change. He pulls out the test she has to take and offers it to her. She says she can't do it. Cheating is against everything she believes in. She wants to go back to his room to watch a documentary on factory farming.

Alicia pours some wine and says she's one glass away from Asian flush. Leighton says she hasn't had any yet. Leighton checks her phone, which shows that Maya is calling. Alicia asks if she needs to worry about this Maya calling her at 1 AM. Leighton says Maya's just a friend. She's coming to visit this weekend. She's Nico's girlfriend.
