We see kids smoking weed… and passing the bong by levitating it.
There’s the ever-present RA… who’s invisible, save a floating pair of glasses and a hat.
Anyway, Emma’s nice and bubbly and gives Marie the obligatory “down-low” on Godolkin.

Currently, the No.
And by that, I mean Johnny Storm meets Captain America (both played by Chris Evans).
Such is life at God U.

But Marie’s insistent.
Shewillland a spot in the Crime Fighting school,andmake it to No.
Why the two credits?
Marie protests and even gets a brief audience with Brink… but he stands by Jordan’s decision.
Unfortunately, no one saw or filmed Marie’s bad-assery, so it doesn’t help her cause.
However, it turns out Andre is the BFF of Luke/Golden Boy, he’s currently ranked No.
Emma’s got a point, so Marie relents.
As kids these days are wont to do they down shots, blow lines, and take Molly.
As soon as Marie gets back to school, she’s called into Professor Brink’s office.
Instead of being rewarded for saving the woman’s life, she’s being expelled.
She insists she didn’t do it, but Brink shrugs this off.
Effective immediately, Marie is being expelled from Godolkin University.
Meanwhile, we find Luke in the midst of a nightmare of his own.
But, like… anactualnightmare.
Luke’s been having a recurring dream where he finds himself in a mysterious forest with his long-dead brother.
Marie is understandably traumatized by what happened the night before.
Everyone on campus wants a selfie with her.
She’s invited to a fancy fundraiser.
And she’s offered a nationally broadcasted interview with Vaught anchorwoman Haley Miller.
But not everyone benefited as they should have from Golden Boy’s death.
Jordan’s not “four quadrant,” they say.
Jordan’s understandably angry about that.
Andre breaks into Brink’s office to investigate.
Soon, Emma comes clean about her eating disorder.
Or does she do the right thing and give Jordan their due?
Of course, Marie takes the credit for herself,and immediately feels like s about it.
Some time later, Luke is told that Sam died by suicide.
He has trouble believing it at first, but eventually, with Cate’s help, he accepts it.
Sam was a sick kid and it’s probably for the best.
As we watch Luke give a shot to move on, wemove back to the present day.
We find Cate and Andre together after their nearly fatal run-in with campus security the night before.
They resolve to do whatever it takes to save Sam, for Luke’s sake.
At the fundraiser, Marie is spinning from all the attention she’s getting.
Jordan argues with their parents about their antiquated perspective on gender identity.
Andre gets to talking about what he’s uncovered regarding The Woods, and Emma offers to help.
Andre can’t get past security without being spotted… but maybe she can.
By making herself super small, Emma manages to sneak into Sam’s cell.
But a security guard busts into Sam’s cell looking for Emma.
