Episode Report Card Kim: A | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Finally
By Kim | Season 1 | Episode 10 | Aired on 11.23.1998
Out in the hall, Knoll furiously runs his hands through his hair, and then checks back to see Ben and Felicity still whispering together. He furiously takes off.
In the reading room, Felicity is still telling Ben how great Knoll is (and it's still entirely subtitled.)
Felicity: And when you need help with anything, Knoll is one of the most level-headed guys I know.
Knoll: [bursting into the reading room and yelling at the top of his lungs, but it's still captioned] This is unacceptable! [Felicity and Ben look up.] You blow me off to come here with him? Do you think I'm going to let myself sit here and get jerked around like that? Well, guess what? No!
Ben: [normal voice] She is just helping me study.
Knoll: [still yelling] Well, that's funny, because she's supposed to be helping me! [Felicity puts her head in her hand in dismay.]
Ben: [now yelling too] Well, she owes me this!
Knoll: Well, she's supposed to be liking me!
Felicity: [fed up] Okay, you know what? You guys figure it out.
Knoll and Ben: Huh?
Felicity: I've been so busy helping both of you that I haven't spent any time doing any work for me, and that's just stupid.
Knoll: Where are you going?
Felicity: [gathering her things] To study. To have some personal space. Excuse me. [to the room] And I know. Shhhh! Sorry for the disruption.
[Felicity leaves and Knoll runs his hands through his hair in frustration.]
Richard: [who has been sitting there the whole time] You! [pointing at Knoll] Are definitely not fit to be an RA. [grabs coat and leaves]
Ben bursts out laughing. Knoll looks extremely frustrated and sweaty and at a loss for words, so he just walks out of the room.
Knoll sits in the cafeteria, furiously chewing on a coffee stirrer. Ben gets some food at the counter, then joins Knoll at a table. Ben offers Knoll the food, and Knoll says that he's not hungry. Ben tells Knoll that he needs food in his system. Knoll ingrates that he's not a big fan of warm milk, and Ben orders him just to drink it. Knoll does, and apologizes for his behavior, blaming it on the smart powder. Ben says that he understands, because some of the guys on the track team in high school would drink energy shakes and have weird reactions. Ben assures Knoll that the food will help. Knoll continues to eat and drink. Ben sighs and says, "You should know that she likes you." Knoll doesn't believe it, saying that Ben is "the prize, the unrequited nightmare." Ben reveals that Felicity talked about Knoll when they were studying. Knoll wants to know what Felicity said. Ben tells the part about "best friend," and "level-headed." Knoll responds, "Well, that's sexy." Ben laughs and says that Felicity definitely likes Knoll. Knoll wonders if this was just before he "burst into the room like a psychopath." Ben says, "Yeah, about three seconds." They both laugh. Knoll is sure that Felicity thinks he is a freak, but Ben is sure that's not the case.
