Previously on "Awkward"...
2
00:00:01,379 --> 00:00:03,444
Anyone caught getting saucy on the sauce
3
00:00:03,469 --> 00:00:05,812
will be banned from walking at graduation.
4
00:00:05,836 --> 00:00:07,635
Miss Saxton, you're not
walking at graduation.
5
00:00:07,637 --> 00:00:09,148
But I'm valedictorian!
6
00:00:09,172 --> 00:00:10,971
Matty, wait. I love you.
7
00:00:10,973 --> 00:00:12,339
I always have.
8
00:00:15,398 --> 00:00:17,132
After three torturous years
9
00:00:17,134 --> 00:00:19,686
of ups and downs and just
a week before graduation
10
00:00:19,711 --> 00:00:21,911
Matty and I were together again,
11
00:00:21,913 --> 00:00:25,149
and it was bliss, pure bliss.
12
00:00:25,438 --> 00:00:28,710
I got an A-minus on
my AP English final,
13
00:00:28,727 --> 00:00:30,326
then Matty and I had sex.
14
00:00:30,328 --> 00:00:33,637
We emptied out our lockers,
and then we had sex.
15
00:00:33,662 --> 00:00:35,195
We walked in the moonlight.
16
00:00:35,220 --> 00:00:37,031
We saw the North Star,
17
00:00:37,063 --> 00:00:38,710
and then we had sex.
18
00:00:39,297 --> 00:00:41,931
Time flew by, and suddenly
there was only one day
19
00:00:41,956 --> 00:00:46,025
of school left... graduation day.
20
00:00:46,027 --> 00:00:48,293
Sleeping with Matty...
and I mean just sleeping,
21
00:00:48,295 --> 00:00:49,695
snuggling, and spooning...
22
00:00:49,697 --> 00:00:52,164
I felt safe and secure and happy.
23
00:00:52,166 --> 00:00:54,634
In some ways it was
even better than sex.
24
00:00:54,636 --> 00:00:56,268
I want to wake up like this every morning
25
00:00:56,270 --> 00:00:57,859
for the rest of my life.
26
00:01:01,609 --> 00:01:04,265
I wish we had more time before college.
27
00:01:04,530 --> 00:01:06,179
At least we have all summer.
28
00:01:07,448 --> 00:01:08,880
Actually...
29
00:01:08,882 --> 00:01:12,251
- Our high school graduate!
- So proud of you!
30
00:01:12,253 --> 00:01:15,424
Come on out, Matty. We can see you.
31
00:01:16,723 --> 00:01:18,790
- Oh.
- Well, whoo.
32
00:01:18,792 --> 00:01:20,926
Good morning to you, too.

00:01:28,601 --> 00:01:29,935
Oh, relax, Jenna.
35
00:01:29,937 --> 00:01:32,015
We know you're sexually active.
36
00:01:32,472 --> 00:01:34,357
We were just sleeping, Mom.
37
00:01:34,382 --> 00:01:38,977
Anyway, we're cool with
you having sex in our house
38
00:01:38,979 --> 00:01:41,279
because you're both practically adults.
39
00:01:41,281 --> 00:01:42,614
Yeah, I'm only semi-cool.
40
00:01:42,616 --> 00:01:45,031
Well, Matty wasn't semi anything.
41
00:01:45,056 --> 00:01:46,384
- Mom!
- Jesus, Lacey.
42
00:01:46,386 --> 00:01:48,652
Uh, good morning.
43
00:01:50,609 --> 00:01:52,723
Jeez, Mom, would you
cool it with the pictures?
44
00:01:52,725 --> 00:01:54,825
Jenna, this is your
one and only graduation.
45
00:01:54,827 --> 00:01:56,694
I want to remember it forever. Now, cheese.
46
00:01:56,696 --> 00:01:59,196
- Today is going to be epic.
- I know.
47
00:01:59,198 --> 00:02:01,565
We're free, and we're
adults, and we're together.
48
00:02:01,567 --> 00:02:04,194
Take a series, and make
sure the glow filter's on.
49
00:02:04,870 --> 00:02:06,536
About a thousand pictures later,
50
00:02:06,538 --> 00:02:09,473
we finally got out the door
to the senior breakfast.
51
00:02:09,475 --> 00:02:12,442
Everyone was giddy and
excited, most of all me.
52
00:02:12,444 --> 00:02:14,611
After being a non-entity
sophomore year,
53
00:02:14,613 --> 00:02:17,847
then flailing through junior
year, in my senior year
54
00:02:17,849 --> 00:02:20,250
I'd gotten my [bleep]
together, gotten into college,
55
00:02:20,252 --> 00:02:21,918
and got with Matty.
56
00:02:21,920 --> 00:02:24,654
Life was good, and graduation
was going to be great.
57
00:02:24,656 --> 00:02:26,089
This is going to be a suck-uation
58
00:02:26,091 --> 00:02:27,924
if the class gift doesn't get here stat.
59
00:02:27,926 --> 00:02:30,093
- Relax, T, it'll get here.
- Relax?
60
00:02:30,095 --> 00:02:31,494
This is my entire high school legacy
61
00:02:31,496 --> 00:02:33,496
engraved onto one piece of granite,
62
00:02:33,498 --> 00:02:34,831
and, I mean, let's be real.
63
00:02:34,833 --> 00:02:36,232
I did all the work picking it out.
64
00:02:36,234 --> 00:02:37,667
You guys had a bake
sale, and you know what?
65
00:02:37,692 --> 00:02:38,835
I'm just gonna say it now.
66
00:02:38,837 --> 00:02:41,070
Those lemon squares were
subpar... too much acid.
67
00:02:41,072 --> 00:02:43,106
Your stupid bench
presentation is the warm-up
68
00:02:43,108 --> 00:02:45,675
for my valedictory
address, so keep it snappy.
69
00:02:45,677 --> 00:02:47,342
I'm about to tell all the lowlifes
70
00:02:47,344 --> 00:02:48,944
that infest this wretched school
71
00:02:48,946 --> 00:02:52,800
exactly what I think of them
and that's gonna take some time.
72
00:02:54,984 --> 00:02:57,165
Sadie, what are you doing here?
73
00:02:57,587 --> 00:02:59,154
Um, graduating.
74
00:02:59,156 --> 00:03:00,889
What are you doing in a bathrobe?
75
00:03:00,891 --> 00:03:02,758
Miss Saxton, this breakfast
76
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,360
is for seniors participating
in the graduation ceremony.
77
00:03:05,362 --> 00:03:08,796
Since you were caught with
a flask of alcohol at prom,
78
00:03:08,798 --> 00:03:10,532
you cannot walk with your class.
79
00:03:10,534 --> 00:03:12,567
We already discussed this at length.
80
00:03:12,569 --> 00:03:14,269
Come on, you weren't serious.
81
00:03:14,271 --> 00:03:16,638
Anyway, my name's already
in the program, so...
82
00:03:16,640 --> 00:03:19,507
Oh, I am dead serious. Go home.
83
00:03:19,509 --> 00:03:20,908
This day needs to be perfect,
84
00:03:20,910 --> 00:03:22,810
and I will not let you not tarnish it.
85
00:03:22,812 --> 00:03:25,647
Okay, your obsession with our graduation
86
00:03:25,649 --> 00:03:26,981
is kind of pathetic.
87
00:03:26,983 --> 00:03:28,582
If you want this day to be perfect,
88
00:03:28,584 --> 00:03:31,986
it needs its valedictorian
and her speech, so I'll stay.
89
00:03:31,988 --> 00:03:33,498
You're welcome.
90
00:03:33,523 --> 00:03:37,024
I am not welcome, thank you very much.
91
00:03:37,851 --> 00:03:40,795
You can leave right now with
your last shred of dignity,
92
00:03:40,797 --> 00:03:43,197
or you can be dragged
out like a crazy woman
93
00:03:43,199 --> 00:03:46,296
by the security I got just for today.
94
00:03:46,669 --> 00:03:49,304
You want it to end like this, Valerie?
95
00:03:50,506 --> 00:03:52,138
Fine!
96
00:03:52,140 --> 00:03:56,142
All your sad power trip shows
is that you're a pathetic loser
97
00:03:56,144 --> 00:03:58,679
who sucks at her job!
98
00:03:58,681 --> 00:04:05,118
So good-bye, all you
losers, slunts, and dunces!
99
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:06,752
Not nice knowing you!
100
00:04:06,754 --> 00:04:10,556
Enjoy your lame graduation
and your tragic tumble
101
00:04:10,558 --> 00:04:13,492
into the sad abyss of mediocrity!
102
00:04:13,494 --> 00:04:15,194
[screams]
103
00:04:17,231 --> 00:04:18,497
[screams]
104
00:04:21,034 --> 00:04:22,801
If we get the drone high enough,
105
00:04:22,803 --> 00:04:24,637
the whole busted graduation mess
106
00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:25,970
will look like a hazy, happy blur.
107
00:04:25,972 --> 00:04:28,306
Yeah, the cloying cluster of basic bitches
108
00:04:28,308 --> 00:04:31,543
will be abstracted into a
benign cloud of nothingness.
109
00:04:36,915 --> 00:04:38,816
Get that [bleep] thing away from me,
110
00:04:38,818 --> 00:04:40,352
you pencil-[bleep] pillheads!
111
00:04:40,354 --> 00:04:41,553
Oh, Sadie, it likes you.
112
00:04:41,555 --> 00:04:42,587
Say hi.
113
00:04:42,589 --> 00:04:44,788
Is that nose hair?
114
00:04:44,790 --> 00:04:47,658
I will crush you and your little air turd
115
00:04:47,660 --> 00:04:49,893
if you ever come near me again,
116
00:04:49,895 --> 00:04:52,095
which you won't because
this is the last time
117
00:04:52,097 --> 00:04:54,598
I ever step foot on this wretched campus.
118
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,734
Uh! Aah!
119
00:04:59,838 --> 00:05:01,204
I can't believe this.
120
00:05:01,206 --> 00:05:02,606
But, you know, Val's being so harsh.
121
00:05:02,608 --> 00:05:04,006
I'm actually on Sadie's side.
122
00:05:04,008 --> 00:05:06,008
Yeah, you should be. This is really unfair.
123
00:05:06,010 --> 00:05:07,343
I know sometimes Sadie can seem like
124
00:05:07,345 --> 00:05:09,242
a super meanie lady dog,
125
00:05:09,267 --> 00:05:10,880
but it's just her way of being nice.
126
00:05:10,882 --> 00:05:11,881
It didn't sound like her speech
127
00:05:11,883 --> 00:05:12,948
was going to be super nice.
128
00:05:12,950 --> 00:05:14,484
- [phone chiming]
- It's here.
129
00:05:14,486 --> 00:05:15,752
Thank G! The bench is here.
130
00:05:15,754 --> 00:05:18,947
Come on, Jake. Come on.
131
00:05:20,157 --> 00:05:21,691
Amaze-nugs.
132
00:05:21,693 --> 00:05:23,592
This bench will be on
the PHHS campus forever,
133
00:05:23,594 --> 00:05:27,121
and generations of students will
sit on it and think about us.
134
00:05:28,231 --> 00:05:30,206
WTF?
135
00:05:30,367 --> 00:05:34,636
F, F, F, F! "The ass of 2015?"
136
00:05:34,638 --> 00:05:36,271
Why would you do this?
137
00:05:36,273 --> 00:05:38,573
Weren't you going for a prank?
I just went by your email.
138
00:05:38,575 --> 00:05:39,775
Here is my email.
139
00:05:39,777 --> 00:05:42,023
"Thank you for your font samples.
140
00:05:42,048 --> 00:05:44,678
We would like bench number
three, granite, Grecian.
141
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,247
We would like our bench inscribed:
142
00:05:46,249 --> 00:05:49,884
"Rest your weary bones
here and reflect on the..."
143
00:05:49,886 --> 00:05:51,386
OMG,
144
00:05:51,388 --> 00:05:52,753
"Ass of 2015."
145
00:05:52,755 --> 00:05:54,455
There it is in black and white.
146
00:05:54,457 --> 00:05:55,985
WTF?
147
00:05:56,010 --> 00:05:57,343
HTF did this happen?
148
00:05:57,345 --> 00:05:59,579
The perfect storm of abbrevs, autocorrect,
149
00:05:59,581 --> 00:06:01,281
and manic multitasking.
150
00:06:02,582 --> 00:06:03,582
It was my flask.
151
00:06:03,584 --> 00:06:04,816
I have to tell Miss Marks.
152
00:06:04,818 --> 00:06:06,418
Sadie shouldn't take the fall for me.
153
00:06:06,420 --> 00:06:07,619
Matty, don't.
154
00:06:07,621 --> 00:06:08,887
Val is on a tear.
155
00:06:08,889 --> 00:06:10,222
Let me explain it to her.
156
00:06:10,224 --> 00:06:12,491
- Why? It was my bad, I'll...
- Val loves me.
157
00:06:12,493 --> 00:06:15,094
She's bound to be more lenient
on an alcohol infraction
158
00:06:15,096 --> 00:06:17,429
if she knows it was,
you know, my boyfriend.
159
00:06:17,431 --> 00:06:19,465
You don't have to.
160
00:06:19,866 --> 00:06:21,333
I want to.
161
00:06:21,335 --> 00:06:23,034
You were the best part
of high school for me.
162
00:06:23,036 --> 00:06:24,970
We have to graduate together.
163
00:06:24,972 --> 00:06:26,972
Don't worry, I got this.
164
00:06:31,916 --> 00:06:33,898
Oh, Biggie, you can't see me like this.
165
00:06:33,923 --> 00:06:35,250
Um, actually, it's Jenna.
166
00:06:35,252 --> 00:06:37,107
Oh, J-Town, come on in.
167
00:06:38,322 --> 00:06:40,288
Timelessly elegant or trendily trashy?
168
00:06:40,290 --> 00:06:42,624
I don't want to look dated in
the pictures ten years from now.
169
00:06:42,626 --> 00:06:45,194
I don't think anyone's gonna
be looking at your nails.
170
00:06:45,196 --> 00:06:46,894
Okay, give me some
space. You're crowding me.
171
00:06:46,896 --> 00:06:49,964
So Val, my girl,
172
00:06:49,966 --> 00:06:51,733
you must know that everyone's really upset
173
00:06:51,735 --> 00:06:53,034
about Sadie not walking.
174
00:06:53,036 --> 00:06:54,969
Not everyone, Jenna.
175
00:06:54,971 --> 00:06:56,270
I'll give you a hint,
176
00:06:56,272 --> 00:06:58,139
she's got two thumbs, three cats,
177
00:06:58,141 --> 00:06:59,540
and is delighted that Sadie
178
00:06:59,542 --> 00:07:01,542
isn't going to be there
to ruin her perfect day.
179
00:07:01,544 --> 00:07:03,644
- Any idea who I'm talking about?
- You?
180
00:07:03,646 --> 00:07:05,046
I'm actually talking about me.
181
00:07:05,048 --> 00:07:07,115
But the flask wasn't even Sadie's.
182
00:07:07,117 --> 00:07:08,916
She was just holding it for someone else
183
00:07:08,918 --> 00:07:11,084
and was unlucky enough
to get caught with it.
184
00:07:11,086 --> 00:07:13,120
Yeah, right. If it wasn't Sadie's flask,
185
00:07:13,122 --> 00:07:14,712
then whose flask was it?
186
00:07:15,558 --> 00:07:17,023
The flask was Matty's.
187
00:07:17,025 --> 00:07:19,092
He feels terrible and wanted
to tell to you himself,
188
00:07:19,094 --> 00:07:23,029
but I wanted to tell you first
because you and I are friends.
189
00:07:23,031 --> 00:07:24,277
We are,
190
00:07:24,634 --> 00:07:29,403
which is why I wish you would
have said any other name.
191
00:07:29,405 --> 00:07:31,956
I'm sorry, but he can't
walk at graduation either.
192
00:07:35,244 --> 00:07:37,860
Matty, I am such an idiot.
193
00:07:37,885 --> 00:07:39,685
- I'm so sorry.
- What happened?
194
00:07:39,687 --> 00:07:42,631
She still won't let Sadie walk,
195
00:07:43,724 --> 00:07:45,391
and now you can't either.
196
00:07:45,393 --> 00:07:47,508
I feel terrible. I'm so sorry.
197
00:07:48,096 --> 00:07:50,063
No, it's not that big a deal.
198
00:07:50,065 --> 00:07:51,664
I'll just... I'll see you after.
199
00:07:51,666 --> 00:07:53,566
Matty, if you can't walk, then
I don't want to walk either.
200
00:07:53,568 --> 00:07:55,168
No, Jenna, I want you to walk.
201
00:07:55,170 --> 00:07:56,902
I don't want to do it without you.
202
00:07:56,904 --> 00:07:58,017
If you miss graduation,
203
00:07:58,042 --> 00:07:59,705
you're gonna regret it
for the rest of your life.
204
00:07:59,707 --> 00:08:01,941
It was my flask, so whatever, it's fair.
205
00:08:01,943 --> 00:08:03,508
We'll hang out after no matter what.
206
00:08:03,510 --> 00:08:05,944
Listen, I've got to go
intercept my parents.
207
00:08:11,050 --> 00:08:13,518
[laughter]
208
00:08:22,295 --> 00:08:24,420
Sadie would hate this.
209
00:08:24,635 --> 00:08:26,268
I wish she was here.
210
00:08:26,270 --> 00:08:27,470
It sucks,
211
00:08:27,495 --> 00:08:30,766
but we all have to dig deep
and show some school spirit.
212
00:08:30,791 --> 00:08:31,807
That's hard to do when the person
213
00:08:31,809 --> 00:08:34,209
I care about most can't even be here.
214
00:08:37,514 --> 00:08:38,880
[students exclaim]
215
00:08:38,882 --> 00:08:40,688
What the what?
216
00:08:41,319 --> 00:08:42,651
No, not today!
217
00:08:42,653 --> 00:08:44,953
I specifically made sure
that Theo and Cole had nothing
218
00:08:44,955 --> 00:08:45,987
to do with this slide show.
219
00:08:45,989 --> 00:08:47,755
I am going to shut this down.
220
00:08:47,757 --> 00:08:50,325
I'd been dreaming of the
perfect graduation, but why?
221
00:08:50,327 --> 00:08:53,094
High school hadn't been perfect,
222
00:08:53,096 --> 00:08:55,539
so why should graduation be?
223
00:08:55,799 --> 00:08:57,330
Stop.
224
00:08:57,970 --> 00:09:00,168
This was what high school was really like,
225
00:09:00,788 --> 00:09:02,547
the good and the bad.
226
00:09:02,572 --> 00:09:05,006
Don't be afraid of the truth, people!
227
00:09:05,337 --> 00:09:07,758
Is this really how you
want to remember this place,
228
00:09:07,783 --> 00:09:10,391
with pictures of people getting beat up?
229
00:09:10,416 --> 00:09:13,540
The slide show, the class
gift... is nothing sacred?
230
00:09:13,549 --> 00:09:14,648
What's not sacred?
231
00:09:14,650 --> 00:09:15,950
This is our legacy now.
232
00:09:15,952 --> 00:09:18,385
- We're the ass of 2015.
- [giggles]
233
00:09:18,387 --> 00:09:20,287
But asses aren't really bad, Tamara.
234
00:09:20,289 --> 00:09:23,724
I mean, we all need them
to, you know, poop and stuff,
235
00:09:23,726 --> 00:09:24,992
and you can't sit without one,
236
00:09:24,994 --> 00:09:26,426
so it makes perfect sense for a bench.
237
00:09:26,428 --> 00:09:28,028
It's like a cute little pun or something.
238
00:09:28,030 --> 00:09:30,029
See, silver lining.
239
00:09:30,031 --> 00:09:31,464
She's oddly wise.
240
00:09:31,466 --> 00:09:34,233
- It's unsettling.
- But she's absolutely right.
241
00:09:34,235 --> 00:09:37,069
Maybe graduation wasn't
about being perfect.
242
00:09:37,071 --> 00:09:40,139
Maybe it was just
about being together.
243
00:09:40,141 --> 00:09:43,442
[students laugh]
244
00:09:47,314 --> 00:09:49,616
Everybody, listen up.
245
00:09:49,618 --> 00:09:52,751
We all know that Sadie
Saxton and Matty McKibben
246
00:09:52,753 --> 00:09:56,421
have been kicked out of
graduation for drinking at prom,
247
00:09:56,423 --> 00:09:59,057
but who the hell wasn't drinking at prom?
248
00:09:59,059 --> 00:10:01,192
The right thing to do is to stand together
249
00:10:01,194 --> 00:10:03,061
and demand they be let back in.
250
00:10:03,063 --> 00:10:04,863
Matty's cool, but Sadie?
251
00:10:04,865 --> 00:10:06,064
She's such a bitch.
252
00:10:06,066 --> 00:10:08,901
Um, did you see that slide show?
253
00:10:08,903 --> 00:10:11,402
We've all messed up sometime,
254
00:10:11,404 --> 00:10:14,304
and we've been through so much together,
255
00:10:14,306 --> 00:10:18,142
the good, the bad,
friends, enemies, together,
256
00:10:18,144 --> 00:10:20,411
and we should graduate together.
257
00:10:20,413 --> 00:10:23,548
If Sadie doesn't walk,
none of us should walk.
258
00:10:23,550 --> 00:10:25,149
Sadie's rude.
259
00:10:25,151 --> 00:10:27,018
She told me that I reeked
and needed to use deodorant.
260
00:10:27,020 --> 00:10:28,953
She was right about that.
261
00:10:28,955 --> 00:10:30,420
Well, I did get laid
262
00:10:30,422 --> 00:10:33,056
after I started using it, one whole time,
263
00:10:33,058 --> 00:10:35,025
and another two times I came pretty close.
264
00:10:35,027 --> 00:10:36,826
She said my boyfriend was a lying douche
265
00:10:36,828 --> 00:10:38,428
who would cheat on me.
266
00:10:38,430 --> 00:10:39,529
Both: Nailed it.
267
00:10:39,531 --> 00:10:41,898
Her harsh truth may hurt sometimes,
268
00:10:41,900 --> 00:10:43,633
but it is our harsh truth.
269
00:10:43,635 --> 00:10:48,071
If we stand together, they can't
keep us all from graduating.
270
00:10:48,073 --> 00:10:50,339
If anyone who was drinking at prom
271
00:10:50,341 --> 00:10:55,044
is not allowed to walk, well,
then I have to admit I drank,
272
00:10:55,046 --> 00:10:56,869
and I should not walk.
273
00:10:59,784 --> 00:11:01,204
I drank.
274
00:11:01,486 --> 00:11:03,453
I really want to walk so bad,
275
00:11:03,455 --> 00:11:05,570
but I drank.
276
00:11:05,856 --> 00:11:07,290
I was totally drinking.
277
00:11:07,292 --> 00:11:08,723
I might be drunk right now.
278
00:11:08,725 --> 00:11:10,892
I hope I'm drunk because this is sick.
279
00:11:10,894 --> 00:11:13,528
- Both: I drank.
- I butt chugged.
280
00:11:13,530 --> 00:11:14,796
All: I drank!
281
00:11:14,798 --> 00:11:17,632
[cheers and applause]
282
00:11:20,447 --> 00:11:22,726
[clears throat] We have conferred
283
00:11:22,751 --> 00:11:25,109
and in the spirit of fairness
284
00:11:25,134 --> 00:11:27,875
have decided to let Matty McKibben walk.
285
00:11:27,877 --> 00:11:29,077
Yes.
286
00:11:29,079 --> 00:11:31,122
[cheers and applause]
287
00:11:31,478 --> 00:11:32,776
However,
288
00:11:33,382 --> 00:11:35,116
due to her volatile nature,
289
00:11:35,118 --> 00:11:36,784
proclivity for hate speech,
290
00:11:36,786 --> 00:11:38,620
and pancake abuse,
291
00:11:38,622 --> 00:11:41,589
we cannot grant Sadie Saxton a reprieve.
292
00:11:44,236 --> 00:11:45,860
Hey, I got your text.
293
00:11:45,862 --> 00:11:47,394
- That's awesome.
- I know.
294
00:11:47,396 --> 00:11:49,696
The whole class stood up
against Val and Principal Cox,
295
00:11:49,698 --> 00:11:51,132
so they had to let you walk.
296
00:11:51,134 --> 00:11:52,933
That's great. What about Sadie?
297
00:11:52,935 --> 00:11:54,401
It wasn't just the alcohol.
298
00:11:54,403 --> 00:11:56,637
She went on a rampage and insulted Val.
299
00:11:56,639 --> 00:11:58,972
Jenna, I'm not walking without Sadie.
300
00:11:58,974 --> 00:12:00,274
But, Matty, your conscience is clear.
301
00:12:00,276 --> 00:12:01,842
Val knows it was your flask.
302
00:12:01,844 --> 00:12:04,077
Sadie's been such a big part
of my life, of all of our lives.
303
00:12:04,079 --> 00:12:07,047
Yeah, and a big part of
making mine miserable.
304
00:12:07,049 --> 00:12:09,430
Matty, I thought you would be proud of me.
305
00:12:09,455 --> 00:12:11,352
I mean, I rallied the entire class.
306
00:12:11,354 --> 00:12:15,088
Does that mean you have to
choose her over me, over us?
307
00:12:15,090 --> 00:12:17,626
Jenna, without her there would be no us.
308
00:12:18,455 --> 00:12:19,693
What do you mean?
309
00:12:19,695 --> 00:12:21,361
You have any guess who
might have told me that...
310
00:12:21,363 --> 00:12:24,398
not just told me, pushed
me to go after you at prom?
311
00:12:24,867 --> 00:12:26,332
But she hates me.
312
00:12:26,334 --> 00:12:28,493
And she would kill me
if she knew I told you.
313
00:12:29,228 --> 00:12:31,171
Like her or hate her, Sadie's
been a great friend to me,
314
00:12:31,173 --> 00:12:32,405
and she's always had my back,
315
00:12:32,407 --> 00:12:35,108
and I don't want to walk without her.
316
00:12:39,189 --> 00:12:41,891
Okay, seniors, this is not a drill.
317
00:12:41,893 --> 00:12:43,292
This is the real deal,
318
00:12:43,294 --> 00:12:46,029
so I'm asking you to behave
with the dignity and respect
319
00:12:46,031 --> 00:12:48,231
that this sacred rite deserves.
320
00:12:48,233 --> 00:12:50,158
All right, people, chop, chop!
321
00:12:51,126 --> 00:12:52,680
Wait, where did Jenna go?
322
00:12:52,705 --> 00:12:53,903
Where is Matty?
323
00:12:53,905 --> 00:12:56,401
I know where Sadie is, not here.
324
00:12:56,608 --> 00:12:58,722
This graduation sucks ass.
325
00:12:59,009 --> 00:13:01,029
The ass bench was a real omen.
326
00:13:07,317 --> 00:13:10,586
Little bitch is here for
your moody brat convention.
327
00:13:10,588 --> 00:13:12,388
Ugh, Hamiltroll, really?
328
00:13:12,390 --> 00:13:13,665
I told Matty to walk.
329
00:13:13,690 --> 00:13:16,491
He won't listen to me. Now,
get the [bleep] out of my room.
330
00:13:16,493 --> 00:13:17,492
Actually, Sadie, I'm here because
331
00:13:17,494 --> 00:13:18,827
I want you at graduation,
332
00:13:18,829 --> 00:13:21,314
so snap out of it and
stop being such a pussy.
333
00:13:21,339 --> 00:13:22,965
I can't go.
334
00:13:22,967 --> 00:13:25,467
Val banished me, remember?
335
00:13:25,469 --> 00:13:27,169
I don't really care, anyway.
336
00:13:27,171 --> 00:13:30,739
Bull[bleep], you care a lot,
and you know what? I do too.
337
00:13:30,741 --> 00:13:33,541
High school has been a huge
part of making me who I am,
338
00:13:33,543 --> 00:13:36,211
and in a perverse way so have you.
339
00:13:36,213 --> 00:13:37,579
You know what's perverse?
340
00:13:37,581 --> 00:13:39,381
You thinking I give a [bleep] who you are.
341
00:13:39,383 --> 00:13:42,250
Sadie, I know you told Matty
he should come find me at prom.
342
00:13:42,252 --> 00:13:46,154
Yeah, well, even if it means
indulging his sick fetish
343
00:13:46,156 --> 00:13:47,355
for tragic little slunts,
344
00:13:47,357 --> 00:13:48,790
I want him to be happy.
345
00:13:48,792 --> 00:13:52,376
I am ignoring that insult and thanking you.
346
00:13:52,763 --> 00:13:56,598
Thank you for forcing me to
stick up for myself every day
347
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,543
for the last four years.
348
00:13:59,035 --> 00:14:00,602
You made me stronger.
349
00:14:00,604 --> 00:14:01,903
You've been a part of my life,
350
00:14:01,905 --> 00:14:03,228
and you're a part of our class,
351
00:14:03,253 --> 00:14:05,774
which is why I want you there to celebrate,
352
00:14:05,776 --> 00:14:07,842
and after today you'll
never have to see me again.
353
00:14:07,844 --> 00:14:09,977
This is the start of real life,
354
00:14:09,979 --> 00:14:11,780
and I would have expected the person
355
00:14:11,782 --> 00:14:15,817
who was so relentless about
torturing me for four years
356
00:14:15,819 --> 00:14:18,978
to try a little harder
to make her voice heard.
357
00:14:20,588 --> 00:14:22,556
Jesus, are you done?
358
00:14:22,558 --> 00:14:25,114

I'd tried everything
I could think of
362
00:14:34,771 --> 00:14:37,197
to get Matty to walk and to
get Sadie to put up a fight,
363
00:14:37,205 --> 00:14:38,345
and I'd failed.
364
00:14:38,379 --> 00:14:41,478
Walking without them sucked,
but I still had to do it.
365
00:14:41,689 --> 00:14:44,582
High school was over
once and for all.

Thank you.
370
00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,001
To make sure this school never
forgets the Class of 2015,
371
00:15:00,003 --> 00:15:01,635
we're giving this lovely bench
372
00:15:01,637 --> 00:15:04,739
to be placed on the
campus quad forevs and evs.
373
00:15:07,242 --> 00:15:08,309
It reads,
374
00:15:08,311 --> 00:15:09,811
"Rest your weary bones here

376
00:15:13,449 --> 00:15:16,184
Yes, people, that's right, "ass."
377
00:15:16,186 --> 00:15:20,754
Learning and growing happen
by making mistakes and by, yes,
378
00:15:20,756 --> 00:15:22,322
falling on your you-know-what.

can lead to the most
wonderful things of all.
382

Are you with me, ass of '15?
383
00:15:30,580 --> 00:15:33,650
Because together, we make this ass whole.

Hey, wow, that was deep,
Tamara. Okay, let's...
387
00:15:45,602 --> 00:15:47,302
Sadie said I wasn't going
to want to miss this, so...
388
00:15:47,304 --> 00:15:51,172
- Miss what?
- Hello, this is Sadie Saxton,
389
00:15:51,174 --> 00:15:54,175
your rightful valedictorian
and graduation speaker,
390
00:15:54,177 --> 00:15:57,178
coming to you from an
undisclosed location.
391
00:15:57,180 --> 00:16:00,381
- Oh, right there.
- This ceremony is a travesty,
392
00:16:00,383 --> 00:16:03,484
but the biggest travesty
of all would be not getting
393
00:16:03,486 --> 00:16:06,539
to hear my speech, so here it comes.
394
00:16:06,564 --> 00:16:09,224
We've all spent four years at this school,
395
00:16:09,226 --> 00:16:12,984
years some say will be the
most formative of our lives.
396
00:16:13,009 --> 00:16:16,097
Every disappointment could
seem like the end of the world,
397
00:16:16,099 --> 00:16:19,699
and conversely, every victory
felt like an ascension.
398
00:16:19,701 --> 00:16:21,401
I even learned some stuff,
399
00:16:21,403 --> 00:16:24,371
like the fact that you can get
a really good idea from someone
400
00:16:24,373 --> 00:16:27,307
that you thought was just
a moronic, pathetic loser.
401
00:16:27,309 --> 00:16:28,876
But guess what?
402
00:16:28,878 --> 00:16:31,879
We're going to be all
over the country next year
403
00:16:31,881 --> 00:16:33,580
at different colleges,
404
00:16:33,582 --> 00:16:37,817
and this high school nonsense
will just be a distant memory,
405
00:16:38,153 --> 00:16:38,986
forgotten.

Literally, I am forgetting
about it right now.
409
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,194
I don't want to clutter
my brain with this crap
410
00:16:48,196 --> 00:16:50,629

412
00:16:51,732 --> 00:16:53,732
I lost cheer captain this year
413
00:16:53,734 --> 00:16:57,503
and was devastated for, like, a minute,
414
00:16:57,505 --> 00:17:01,373
and then I realized no one
in college will know or care,
415
00:17:01,375 --> 00:17:02,808
and if they ask, guess what?
416
00:17:02,810 --> 00:17:05,076
I can just say I was cheer captain.
417
00:17:05,078 --> 00:17:06,645
Anyone can say whatever the hell
418
00:17:06,647 --> 00:17:08,280
they want to say about high school.

or luck or charity.
