Speaking of Knoll, he's about to give a test to his philosophy class. Naturally, Sean and Richard are there and we get to see them pan around the classroom. I can't imagine a university allowing that during a test, especially since Sean isn't even a student there. Whatever. In a one-on-one interview, Sean asks Knoll what he does. Knoll explains that he is a TA and that he assists the teacher. Omigod, what an educator! What an orator! He probably wrote a speech about speech writing back in grade five. Sean comments that Knoll went from being an RA to being a TA. Sean and Richard laugh about that while Knoll smiles weakly. Hey Knoll, that joke wasn't any lamer than your definition of a TA.
At the Health Centre, a stereotypical, bleached-blonde, gossipy queeny dude, who looks like a cross between Joshua Jackson's character in Cruel Intentions, Harry "Hambone" Hamlin, and Terry Sweeny from early 1980s Saturday Night Live ["and is actually Alexis, for my mind the least loathsome of the Arquettes" -- Wing Chun], cryptically informs Felicity that their coworker Maureen is no longer working there. Instead of saying just that, he mentions missing time cards and sack lunches (hey, that movie was better than The English Patient!). When Felicity finally guesses that Maureen has quit, Bleached Boy tells her that she didn't hear it from him. Following up that bit of drama, he asks for Felicity's opinion on the Argyle sweater his sister gave him, which he is wearing. Felicity is politely non-committal, which causes Bleached Boy to rip it off and flounce away. WTF? Did David E. Kelley create this character? Ooh, let's check the GLAAD website to see if this character has turned up on their TV Scoreboard. Doubtful.
At Dean & Deluca, Felicity tells the camcorder that she really wants the job recently vacated by Maureen at the Health Centre since "it'll be good experience and more money and it'll look good on my résumé." Sean notes, "Last year you were straddling art and medicine." Richard pipes up, "Yeah, you were also straddling Knoll!" Sean admonishes him and Richard apologizes.
