Felicity immediately goes to see Julie, because she can't stand not to talk about Ben for five minutes. Hey, I've been there. Julie is on her way out the door to meet Krakow. Felicity asks Julie whether she'll be back soon. Julie says she doesn't know and asks whether Felicity needs her. Felicity says she doesn't, and then muses that Julie and Krakow have "a situation," where they like each other and want to spend time together. Yeah, it's called a relationship. Felicity says that she's jealous "in the best way." Julie says that Felicity is still her closest friend. Julie takes off with her guitar, leaving Felicity standing very alone.
Blair sees Elena looking at some paperwork in the hallway. A woman calls Elena into an office. Blair sees that it's the Financial Services office. Can I just say that Blair is not cute? He looks like an alien. Tracy is about a million times cuter.
Felicity knocks on Elena's door. Blair walks up and says that he just saw Elena in the financial aid office. Felicity wants to know why, and Blair says he thought Felicity might know. They agree that Elena has been acting pretty weird. Blair says that Elena keeps shutting him down. Felicity says that's been happening to her and Ben, because in Felicity's world, all things relate back to Ben. Blair acts interested, so they go to the cafeteria to talk about their problems. Felicity tells Blair that he could be a model. Blair returns the compliment, and wonders why Ben keeps turning her down. After the mutual compliments, Felicity tells Blair not to worry about Elena because lots of students have financial problems, and that it could be anything, like lost paperwork. Blair gives Felicity a look and then asks Felicity whether she works in the admissions office. Felicity says that she can't look in Elena's file because she doesn't want to be a buttinsky. Blair confesses that Elena told him that she might have to leave, and that it seems serious. Felicity has had a lot of trouble in the past. Blair won't ask her to read Elena's file, and Felicity is relieved, because she thinks that's crossing a line. Awkward pause. Blair asks Felicity to look in Elena's file. Felicity doesn't respond.
As thunder crashes outside, Felicity rolls over in her sleep to find Meghan staring at her. Meghan once again accuses Felicity of looking in her box, or even just picking it up to shake it. Felicity denies the accusations, and asks what's in there. Meghan says that Felicity is curious. Felicity says that she's only curious because Meghan keeps bringing it up. Meghan asks again whether Felicity went through it. Felicity stands up and wonders what would happen if she did see "all [her] naked pictures or drugs or whatever." Meghan gets all huffy and leaves, vowing to buy a fingerprint kit. Felicity looks after her incredulously.
