Knoll keeps playing the game even though Ben is across the room, which seems like cheating. ["And is a total rip-off of the scene in Swingers when Sue goes to the door to meet the Pink Dot guy and Trent un-pauses the Sega hockey game and makes one of Sue's guy's heads bleed." -- Wing Chun] Knoll says he's "wickedly kicking [Ben's] ass" and adds under his breath, "which I've always wanted to do." Ben says, "Here!" and tosses the can of beer to Knoll. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your point of view), Knoll is not paying attention and the can of beer hits him in the head with a metallic "klunk!" Ben giggles like a little girl and Knoll writhes in agony and accuses him of doing it on purpose. Ben apologizes while still laughing. Then, Ben offers to let Knoll hit him so that they'll be even. Knoll says he won't do it, but Ben insists, saying, "Come on! You always wanted to kick my ass!" Knoll gets a look on his face like "Hey, yeah!" I'm sure Ben meant that Knoll should hit him on the arm or in the stomach or something. Instead, Knoll clocks him right in the jaw. I yell out, "Not the face! For the love of God, not the face!" My boyfriend comes in to investigate and I tell him I was saying, "I lost my place!" Yeah, he didn't buy it either. Ben falls to the floor and then looks back at Knoll while the Tekken 3 music continues to play. Before Knoll can say anything, Ben tackles him and they start wrestling on the floor. There's a nice dual shot of the television, which they knocked on its side, and Ben and Knoll rolling around on the floor, punching one another.
Greg is on the phone with someone, saying he's "not going anywhere," but the person hangs up on him. Felicity enters the office and asks how bad it was. Greg says it was "extra, extra bad." Felicity deduces that there won't be a letter of recommendation and Greg says Student Services guy is "not a fan at the moment." Greg hesitates a moment, then tells Felicity, "They're not going to give in on this, you know." Greg goes on to say that the trustees give the university millions of dollars, and that if some old guy tells them to stop giving out aspirin, then "everyone is going to walk around with a headache." They sit in silence for a while, and then Felicity says that whatever happens, she's really sorry about Student Services guy. Greg says he has to make some calls because they're going to be closed tomorrow. Pack your bags, Felicity, because Greg is sending you on an all-expenses paid guilt trip! Felicity just walks away.
