that. I know him, he's a hard-ass.

Hey, kids. Honey!

Hey. Hi. How are you? Hey.

What's this?

South Harmon Institute of Technology?

What's that?

Mmm? What's that?

One of the most respected schools

in the area, that's what that is.

Well, what's it say?

I gotta open it first.

Come on, hurry.

Oh. I'm nervous.

"Dear Bartleby...

"congratulations,

you've been accepted!"

I got in!

Aw, thank God. Thank God.

I got in!

Hey-o!

Oh! God!

Honey.

I'm okay.

Hey, this is great!

It's so exciting!

What the hell is South Harmon

Institute of Technology? Yeah.

Oh, it's one of

Harmon College's sister schools.

I've never heard of it.

Well, because

it's the baby sister.

It's the most discreet and

unharmed of the sister schools.

You got any literature

on this place?

Yeah, there's a website,

I'll show you the link.

You did it.

You're a college boy.

Wow.

So you guys want to eat?

Yeah.

Hey! I hate my life.

I'm a huge tool.

Have fun being hot.

Bartleby!

Hey, Dad, what's up?

I took a look

at that website.

Oh.

Cool.

It looks unreal.

Unreal?

Yeah, it looks

pretty unbelievable, huh?

It seems

like a solid place.

Really?

Here you go.

First semester's tuition.

Paid in full.

That's great.

Wow, thank you, Dad.

Oh, sorry. Sorry.

Thanks, Dad.

Your mother and I

can't wait to drop you off.

What we need to do

is lease a place near Harmon...

...so we can fool our parents.

Yeah.

Hey, Schrad, do you know any

places up near Harmon we can rent?

Oh, yeah, I do,

actually.

I carry around a list

with me at all times...

...of abandoned buildings

for fake colleges.

Dude, I started you guys

a bank account already.

What do you want me to be,

your realtor?

Oh, hey, guys.

What's up?

Hey, what's up, Glen?

Hey.

Hey, Glen...

...when did you start working

at the Kwik 'N Stop?

Since I got boned, hard,

by every college I applied to.

Why, what happened?

Some political crap.

I got a zero on my SATs.

You know

you get 600 points...

...just for signing

your name, right?

All right,

let's get serious, man.

Now, where we gonna find a

place to pass off as a college?

Hey, guys! I know a place.

How'd you know

about this place?

I used to do

volunteer work here.

This

place is awesome.

'Cause now I can

finally get hepatitis.

A bird in the hand, dude.

A bird in the hand.

That doesn't

make any sense.

It's a saying.

What?

A diamond in the rough.

Hope you guys

have hobo-stab insurance.

Great.

The birthplace of crack.

Hello, beautiful.

Hey! Hey, guys,

don't go in there.

This is breaking

and entering.

Schrader, come on.

Don't be scared.

Who's scared? I'm not scared. You're scared.

Schrader, you were scared to
