Episode Report Card Kim: A+ | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Felicity Was Here
By Kim | Season 1 | Episode 22 | Aired on 05.24.1999
Ben gets into the elevator and tells Felicity to think about it some more. Felicity tightly insists that she's thought it through. Noel runs up, yelling for Ben to hold the elevator. He gets in the elevator, saying that he's got to drop off his last R.A. report. He asks Felicity whether she's gone to the passport place. Throughout the scene, Ben smirks at Felicity, and then, when Noel looks over, pretends he's not smirking. It's pretty funny. Felicity promises that she will go to the passport place tomorrow. Noel tells Ben that they're going to Berlin. Ben says that's what Felicity says. The elevator doors close as Felicity looks really uncomfortable.
Felicity goes to get her passport photo taken. The photographer asks where she's going, and she tells him that it's Berlin. He says he's heard it's nice, although he's never been. He takes the picture. Felicity asks him if he's ever driven across the country. He says that he has. Felicity asks how it was. He says it was one of the best times he's ever had, and possibly the best. He adds that you don't need a passport, and that it's very romantic. Yes, I find that going unshowered for days at a time is very conducive to romance. Or maybe I'm just remembering my own cross-country experience. Which was stinky.
Commentary Trivia: The guy who played the passport photographer also played the guy who took the college ID pictures in the pilot episode, and he was the same guy who demonstrated the condom in the episode called "Gimme an O."
Felicity sits in a classroom alone. Julie walks in and sits down, announcing that she knows whom Ben likes. Felicity looks horrified, and asks whether Ben talked to her. Julie says that Lynn did, and told her about Nicole. Felicity acts surprised. Julie says it seems obvious now, in retrospect. Julie explains that Nicole was making moves on Ben, and that that's why Lynn broke up with her. Felicity looks freaked out. Julie realizes that something is up, and asks Felicity whether she knew about Nicole. Felicity stammers that Ben might have mentioned something at work one day. Julie can't believe that Felicity knew and didn't tell her. Felicity apologizes. Julie bitchily heaves a sigh and Felicity adds that she doesn't think Ben likes Nicole. Julie admits that Lynn said the same thing, and Julie wonders who it is.
