Don't judge a book

by its cover.

A common saying,

and it applies,

because today is the day

I start my new life.

Or, rather, orchestrated life.

To me you're supposed

to be the conductor

but when you're a string

on an instrument,

you never know how

you'll be played.

Okay. Mother's almost done

making room in the car.

Are you all right, Caitlyn?

What?

Uh, yeah, Dad, I'm fine.

My girl's not having

second thoughts now, is she?

No, I'm just thinking

about stuff, you know?

Oh, no, no, no, none of that.

No mushiness today.

Your mother's doing all she can

to hold back her tears

now that you're going off

to college.

I might be a little mushy, Dad.

No, stop.

'Cause if you get mushy

then your mother will get mushy.

And before you know it,

I'll be mushy.

And I don't want that.

Such a softie.

Ah.

I am so proud of you.

My little girl all grown up.

Okay, hey.

Anything else?

It's just the last box.

Oh, all right.

Oh.

I remember this.

First place,

calculus competition.

You were 12.

Can you imagine what a proud

father I was that day?

And second place.

English creative writing

competition.

Well, I'm glad

you're out of that phase.

Second place isn't bad.

Yes, but it's not first.

You're not really

taking this with you.

Of course I am.

Mr. Scruffy will be

the only one

to protect me from the baddies

now that you won't be there.

The next accountant

in this family

and she needs Mr. Scruffy

to protect her.

Well, you taught me

to be strong,

but everyone needs a sidekick.

You have Mom,

I have Mr. Scruffy.

Yeah, you know,

come to think of it,

I'd rather deal with Mr. Scruffy

than those boys at college.

You don't have to worry

about that, Dad.

I know.

I doubt any of those boys

are one-third the genius

my Caitlyn is.

I trust you.

Okay.

We better get down there.

He means well,

but if only he could see

what is staring him

back in the face.

A daughter who's ready

to live her own life.

Jean, honey.

I thought we weren't going

to be mushy, dear.

I'm sorry.

But my baby's leaving me.

I mean, what kind of mother

would I be

if I didn't shed tears of love?

I'm not a cold-hearted person.

I'll be fine, Mom.

I know you will, sweetie.

I'm just so proud of you.

I mean, you're finally

going off

and getting your own life.

Don't forget about me.

Don't be silly, Mom, I won't.

I'll call you when

I get there, okay?

All right.

Come on, honey.

It's time.

I know that, George.

I just can't believe

this is actually happening.

Well, it won't

if you stay in the car.

She can't bring you with her.

Why not?

Don't you want me around

anymore?

Of course I do. I'll keep

in contact, I promise.

You're a sweet child.

Want some more brandy?

Do I need to ask?

You do know that alcohol

will only make you feel worse.

Look at that.

My baby taking care of me now.

Oh, come here.

All right, come on, you guys.

You gotta get there if you

wanna be there before dark.

Yeah.

Mom, you can stop

hugging me now.

Okay.

Mom, I can't breathe.

Oh!

Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie.

Okay.

We love you, Caitlyn.

I love you both.

Drive safe.

I will.

Bye.

Brandy.

Driving long distances

by yourself

can be a blessing and a curse.

When your favorite music

isn't doing the trick,

then you're really at a loss

to keep yourself occupied

for the drive.

There's always texting,

but that's bad, too.

Then there's the worst thing

of all...

thinking.

How bad can it be?

I can meet great people

that know who they are

and are passionate

about their studies.

It's going to be great.

This can be the best thing

that's ever happened to me.

This could probably be

the most boring four years

of my life.

Fix this equation,

here a number, there a number,

everywhere a boring number.

Is my life completely

out of my control?

Is this really all

I'm meant to be?

I'm going to have a blast

with my roommate.

We'll have our own

little book club

writing short stories

that are posted

in the school newspaper

that'll then

get discovered

by a giant publisher.

I bet she'll be

the sweetest person

in the world, too.

It'll be perfect.

Maybe she's ugly.

Finally.

Where the hell have you been?

Uh, I hit traffic on the drive.

I'm Caitlyn Landale.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm Alice.

We can get acquainted later.

I've been waiting forever.

Zip, zip.

My hands are full.

Oh, my God.

Go put your stuff on the bed.

Ah.

Thank you.

What?

Hope you're gonna change.

Do you have something

a little less you?

Excuse me?

Put your hair down

and take off your glasses.

Come on, do it.

We need to get going.

What do you mean

we need to get going?

Drake McDowell's parents

are on a cruise

and he's throwing

this crazy party.

All the people worth knowing

are gonna be there.

I'm... I'm gonna pass,

I'm exhausted.

Out of the question.

I'm not going by myself,

that's why

you're coming with me.

This is for you.

You'll thank me later.

It'll get you into

all the bars in town.

How'd you get this?

My sister hooked me up

after graduation.

Stick with me

and we'll have this place

wrapped around our fingers.

Best place to start,

Drake's party.

Look, I'm really tired.

You'll wake up.

And who knows who you'll meet.

Trust me.

Now what are you gonna wear?

Most of my stuff

is still in the car.

It should probably stay there.

Here, put this on.

Make it snappy.

Roomie.

Put your hair back up.

This is going to be

a long first semester.

Joe, Joe, Joe,

Joe, Joe, Joe, woo!

Godfrey, Godfrey, Godfrey,

Godfrey, Godfrey,

Godfrey, woo!

Allie Buchanan.

You made it.

Of course I did.

Joe, Joe, Joe,

Joe, Joe, Joe...

I see you brought

a sexy little thing with you.

Hi.

I'm Drake McDowell.

This is my roommate, Kathleen.

It's Caitlyn, actually.

Very nice to meet you, Caitlyn.

Can I get you two anything?

- Vodka tonic.

- And for you?

I'll just have

some water right now.

That's funny.

Seriously?

Oh, okay, um,

one VT and a water

coming right up.

Thank you very much.

You caught the eyes

of the host.

Whatever.

Godfrey, Godfrey,

Godfrey, Godfrey!

There he is.

Adam.

Are you kidding?

Everyone knows him.

What's so great about him?

The mystery.

What mystery?

The one I plan to find out.

Ladies.

Here you go.

Thank you.

What number shot are they on?

Twenty-one.

Isn't that a lot?

Oh, yeah.

Joe!

Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe,

Joe, Joe, Joe, woo!

Yes, yes.

Godfrey, Godfrey, Godfrey,

woo!

Come on, Joe.

You ready?

Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe,

Joe, Joe, Joe, oh!

Dude, that was epic.

Joe never had a chance.

Ladies and gents,

I give you

our reigning champion,

Adam Godfrey.

Woo!

Isn't he amazing?

He's gonna have one hell

of a hangover tomorrow.

Sh*t.

Hi.

I'm Alice.

Are you okay?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I'm... I'm fine.

I'm Adam.

I know who you are, silly.

Do you have a sister?

Christine Buchanan.

She graduated last year.

She told me amazing things

about you.

Right.

Yes, yes, I remember her.

Enjoying the party?
