I'll be a joke.

No, it's totally great.

You got to use it.

Really?

Yeah, but lose the glasses.

They give it away.

Huh.

Okay!

Unpack. Check.

Hang posters. Check.

Now I just need to ace my classes,

graduate with honors,

and become

the greatest Scarer ever.

Boy, I wish I had

your confidence, Mike.

Aren't you even

a little nervous?

Actually, no.

I've been waiting

for this my whole life.

I just can't

wait to get started.

Oh, man! I can't be

late on the first day!

Wow.

You got to be kidding me.

I'm so nervous!

Relax. It will be fine.

Good morning, students.

Welcome to Scaring 101.

I am Professor Knight.

Now I'm sure all of you were the

scariest monster in your town.

Well, bad news, kids.

You're in my town now,

and I do not scare easily.

Dean Hardscrabble.

This is a pleasant surprise.

She's a legend.

She broke

the all-time Scare Record

with the scream

in that very can!

I don't mean to interrupt.

I just thought I'd drop by

to see the terrifying faces

joining my program.

Well, I'm sure my students

would love to hear

a few words of inspiration.

Inspiration? Very well.

Scariness is the true

measure of a monster.

If you're not scary

what kind of a monster are you?

It's my job to make

great students greater,

not make mediocre students

less mediocre.

That is why at the end of the

semester there will be a final exam.

Fail that exam and you are

out of the Scaring program.

So,

I should hope you're all properly inspired.

All right. All right.

Who can tell me the properties

of an effective roar?

Yes?

There are actually five.

Those include

the roar's resonance,

the duration of the roar,

and the...

Whoops. Sorry.

I heard someone say "roar,"

so I just kind of went for it.

Oh, excuse me, sorry.

I didn't mean to scare you there.

Hey, how you doing?

Very impressive, Mister...

Sullivan.

Jimmy Sullivan.

Sullivan.

Like Bill Sullivan, the Scarer?

Yeah. He's my dad.

He's a Sullivan!

I should have known.

I expect big things from you.

Well, you won't

be disappointed.

Uh... I'm sorry.

Should I keep going?

No, no.

Mr. Sullivan's covered it.

Huh.

Everyone take out

your Scaring textbooks

and open them to chapter one.

Hey, bub.

Can I borrow a pencil?

I forgot all my stuff.

Ah! All right. Yes.

There we go. That will get it.

Mmm... Yeah.

Come on, Mike.

It's a fraternity

and sorority party.

We have to go!

If we flunk that Scaring final,

we are done.

I'm not taking any chances.

You've got

the whole semester to study,

but this might

be our only chance

to get in good

with the cool kids.

That's why I made these cupcakes.

Oops.

That could

have been embarrassing.
