Felicity and Elena get out of the elevator, discussing a final project. Noel walks up and tells Felicity that she's right, and they need to talk. Felicity looks taken aback and tells Elena that she'll meet her at their seminar. Elena looks doubtful and Felicity says it's okay. Elena slowly moves off, giving Noel the stink-eye the whole time. Felicity asks Noel where he wants to go.
Felicity and Noel sit at Epstein Bar, because if they're not in their dorm and they're not at the loft, and they're not in a classroom, and they're not at Dean & Deluca, that's the only other place they can go. Noel says he was going to move until she talked to him, and that she was right, because if he left, he'd just be running away from dealing with their relationship. Noel adds that he didn't buy the part about being a great R.A. Felicity says she's glad he stayed, whatever the reason. Noel says that they had a horrible thing happen, and that they both made bad decisions and hurt each other a lot. Felicity carefully says that it doesn't mean they can't try again. Noel asks whether she thinks they can. Felicity says she keeps asking herself why he needed to be with Hannah and why she went off with Eli, because there must have been something wrong with their relationship. Noel doesn't know. Felicity thinks they need to start over and be friends again. Noel agrees, although it seems like he was thinking of more than a friendship. Sean whispers, "I'm not even here," as he films their conversation. Felicity and Noel tell him to get the hell out. Sean asks if they can talk tomorrow. On the DocuCam, Felicity and Noel continue to yell at Sean, so he murmurs an apology and the screen goes black.
McGrath's seminar. McGrath talks to the students pretentiously about their final projects. Felicity enters, clearly very late, and everyone stares at her. McGrath ignores her and dismisses the class. Felicity asks Elena what she missed. Elena says that McGrath assigned the final project and everyone has a partner. Felicity asks who her partner is. Elena says that Felicity doesn't have one, because even though there are ten people in the class, he put Elena in a group of three. Felicity stands and asks McGrath if she can partner with Elena. McGrath asks Felicity whether she knows what he just discussed for two hours, and she is forced to admit that she doesn't. McGrath reminds her that she has to be committed. Felicity says she had a personal thing. McGrath says that unless she is committed, it won't work. Felicity asks whether it means she has to do twice as much work as anyone else. McGrath asks if she's whining. Felicity says she was, but that she'll stop. What a dick. I hate college professors who think that their words are like spun gold, and that missing one class is the end of the world, and won't make allowances for the fact that students might have, you know, lives.
