Biochemical organization.
- Are you okay?
- What? Yeah.
Sorry, I was just practicing for my presentation.
Is that okay to do in here?
- You can do whatever you want.
Can I offer some advice?
- Yeah. Yeah.
- Just don't sound like that
when you give your presentation.
- What do you mean?
Sound like what?
- Your voice.
When you talk, it goes up at the end of your sentences.
Have you ever noticed that?
- No.
- Just be confident.
If you wanna be taken seriously,
don't ask a question when it's a statement.
- I think I just sound like that.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
Just trying to help.
Good luck on your presentation.
- I'm back.
So, I'm feeling really good about this presentation.
How about you?
- Do you wanna go over the outline again?
- Why? You know this stuff inside and out.
You're not scared of speaking
in front of the class, are you?
- Me, scared?
No. Of course not.
- Okay, then we'll be fine.
(upbeat music)
- Quick!
Can I use your charger?
- Yeah, sure.
- Savior.
I've been filling out this application
for two hours and I almost lost everything.
- What are you applying for?
- Hold on one sec.
And submit.
Now cross all your fingers and toes for me.
- What am I crossing them for?
- I'm applying to an art program in Rome.
I would die to live in Rome!
- You're, you're leaving Provincetown?
- Hopefully.
Everybody should do a semester abroad once in their life.
You can always come visit.
You mean it?
- Si!
(speaking in Italian)
- What'd you just say?
- Doe it matter?
Everything sounds sexier in Italian.
- Oh yeah?
(speaks in Italian)
(phone buzzes)
- I have to go meet Val.
What are you up to anyways?
- Just filling out my schedule.
I dropped a couple of the classes Lily picked for me
so I was just low on credits.
- What are you gonna take?
- I don't know.
Italian sounded pretty good right now.
- Si!
(speaks in Italian)
- [Automated Voice] Lesson one.
Repeat after me.
Ah, a, e, o, u.
- Ah, a, e, o, u.
- [Automated Voice] She sells seashells by the seashore.
- She sells seashells by the seashore.
- Hi?
Girl, what is happening?
- I'm practicing for my presentation.
Do I sound normal to you?
- What? What are you talking about?
- The waitress at the lounge told me I speak in questions
and now I'm spiraling.
Is my voice too high?
- I don't know.
You sound like you.
- Well, what do I sound like?
I forgot.
- Oh gosh.
You really are spiraling.
- If I can't speak normally,
how are people ever gonna take me seriously or get a job?
- Girl, calm down.
You don't have to change how you sound.
Seriously.
- Yes, I do.
I absolutely do.
- Is this about the presentation
or is this actually about Wes?
- Why would it be about Wes?
Oh my God, I can't not hear it.
What am I gonna do?
- I don't know.
I can try to pull the fire alarm and buy you some time.
- Ah, a, e, o, u.
- Wow.
- She sells seashells by the seashore.
- Simply put, bio molecules are the building blocks of life.
By understanding these chemical processes
we have extraordinary insight into all living organisms.
But first, we must ascertain how they are organized.
- Someone's been watching my TED Talks.
- I've learned from the best.
Lily?
- Yes.
Biochemical molecular.
I'm sorry.
Molecular.
No biochemical molecular organization.
- Take your time.
- The four groups are carbohydrates, lipids.
- Proteins, and nucleic acids.
- I was just about to say that.
Proteins and nucleic acids.
Sorry.
Lipids are made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
- That's carbohydrates.
- You two aren't prepared.
- No, we're prepared.
I'm sorry.
We're prepared.
Sorry.
(Aidan speaking in Italian)
- What?
(Aidan speaking in Italian)
Dude, what are you doing?
- Practicing my Italian.
- But why?
- Because you said everything sounds better in Italian.
So, (speaking in Italian).
Right?
- Well, stop.
It's painful.
- Right. Geez, sorry.
I'm just trying to make you laugh, but I'll go.
- Wait, Aidan.
I'm sorry.
It's not you.
I'm just having a tough day.
- You all right?
- No, not really.
Val and I, we're taking a break.
She met someone.
- I'm sorry.
Although, I don't know a lot about open relationships,
but isn't that kinda the point, meeting other people?
- Apparently she's in love and wants to give it a real go.
I just can't believe she's in love with someone
and it's not with me.
- Honestly, I can't either.
You're the most lovable person I've met
in a long, long time.
- You don't have to say that.
- I'm not just saying that.
I joined Italian 101 for you.
- Wait, what?
Why would you do that?
You suck at it.
(speaking in Spanish)
- That's Spanish, but I think I get the idea.
- I'll keep trying.
- Don't look so miserable, Ms. Miller.
It was a pass fail assignment, and you passed.
- I passed?
- You did.
Did you know that statistically people are more afraid
of public speaking than they are of dying?
- No, but I get it.
- When I first started speaking in public,
my hands would shake so violently,
I couldn't hold a piece of paper.
That's why I started memorizing all my speeches.
- Really?
- Mhmm.
I know you knew that material inside and out.
The harder you work, the less you feel like an imposter.
And I think that you probably work harder than anyone.
- Thanks Dr. Berlant.
And I promise next time, I'll do better.
- I know you will.
But Rome wasn't built in a day,
so go a little easier on yourself, okay?
- Thanks.
(speaking in Italian)
- Don't forget, Ti amo, Taylor.
- Sorry, I didn't mean come in.
- Sorry, did I interrupt your affirmations?
- Italian homework.
- Well, in that case, you gotta keep practicing,
'cause your pronunciations stink, bro.
- Oh really?
Yeah, better than your frat lingo, bro.
- Come on, now.
The alphas aren't that bad, are they?
- Sorry. I know the alphas mean a lot to you.
- But they don't mean more than you.
'Cause you know why?
'Cause you're my bestie, my home dog,
and best of all, my wing man.
- Stop.
- I'm being serious.
I mean it.
You're my number one boo.
- Oh, you're making me blush.
- Yeah.
So why the Italian homework.
- Well, there has been some recent developments
with Billie.
- Dude.
What, you gotta tell me everything.
- So, that was quite the presentation.
- Yeah, I'm so sorry.
I'm so embarrassed.
- What happened?
- I think I just got in my own head.
- If I had known you were so nervous,
I could have helped you.
- Yeah, that wouldn't have helped.
- Why not?
I'm your lab partner.
- Because when I'm with you, I can't really focus.
- At least I'm not the only one.
- Really? I didn't know that.
You haven't said anything since--
- I was just following your lead.
But to be honest, I haven't stopped thinking about you.
I thought that was obvious.
- Well, it wasn't obvious.
Sometimes it helps to spell things out.
You know, I'm not.
A mind reader.
- How was that?
- That's a little more clear.
- [Billie] Next time on "Together Forever."
- Welcome future alphas to the night of all nights.
Initiation.
- My brother Steve decided to visit last minute.
- He still doesn't know we're broken up.
- I'm a terrible liar.
Why didn't you just tell him?
Would you kiss me again once I'm an alpha?
