(Coming up in this video)
Burgers again, Rocco.?
Can't we go get seafood next time or something with more variety?
Seafood? I',bulking up for football season.
I need 10,000 calories a day.
Football season again?
I guess I'm not going to be seeing you much.
Oh, yeah, you will.
Cheerleaders have the best view in the house.
Well, at least I have this year to cheer.
I probably won't be doing it next year in college.
Well, you never know.
Depends on where you go.
Well, I don't know yet.
I'm waiting for my SAT scores.
Well, I got mine. I'm going to ULCA next year.
ULCA? That's amazing.
That's one of the top schools in the country.
Yeah, I'm one of the chosen few.
Wow. That's amazing.
Your hard work has obviously paid off.
Well, what could I say?
But I heard out-of-state tuition There is a fortune.
How can you guys afford it?
Oh, that's the best part. It's free.
I got a football scholarship.
Honey, we got some mail from the College Board.
College Board?
What is that? I'm not even in college yet.
No, these are the S.A.T. results.
Great. Let me see it.
Here you go.
It's a 910.
What's the score like that you're either doing school online or community college.
No, but I have to go to a good school so I can marry the right guy and
and have a family and be rich and have a good life.
Look, the good news is
you still have time to take it again and they only use the highest score.
Oh, easy. I'll take it again.
I know. I'll get a good score.
That's what happened when I repeated 10th grade math.
No, sweetie.
You need a prep course or a tutor.
Believe me, it works.
That's for nerds.
I don't have time between cheer and dance class.
Can't you just find me a good tutor?
OK, let me go on Tutor Central and see if I can book someone for you.
OK, good idea. Make sure he's cute.
I have bad news.
Nobody is available. We waited too long.
Oh, fine. I'll do a prep course.
Let me look one up.
That's a great idea.
You'll do much better with more structure anyway.
No, what! They're all booked.
Why don't you get me into one of these before?
Maybe you just need to skip college for now.
You can get a job at the department store and we can address it again later.
I know who can tutor me. Rocco!
He got into ULCA.
Really. He did?
That's a hard school.
Yeah. He's a smart guy.
It takes brains to memorize all those football players.
Well, I never thought of it that way.
But if he can do it, that's our only choice.
Yeah, it's a perfect plan.
I know he'll help me.
You know what? If you put your mind to it, you can do anything
Now Make it happen!
All right, class, before we get started with science.
Dexter is here to make an announcement.
Hi, class. I'm Dexter.
And I wanted to talk to you guys about the computer lab after school.
I'm the proctor this year.
And if you need computer help, just come to the lab after school.
And we're open from three to four every day,
except on the weekends.
Thank you.
Thank you, Dexter.
And I encourage all of you to go to the computer lab if you need help.
So here's what you need to know to ace the S.A.T..
It's important to take as much time as you can on each question
because they don't deduct if you skip a question.
Oh, I didn't know that.
I thought it was the other way around.
That's just one of my secrets.
Now take this example question.
If a squared plus 14 equals fifty one and A is greater than zero.
What's the value of a plus seven?
I don't know, I have to figure that out,
OK, since it's greater than zero. You try one.
So one squared equals two plus
14 times, one equals 14 or 16.
That can't be right.
So let's try two.
Two squared plus 14.
Wait a minute. Isn't it better to do it this way?
14 A equals 51 minus a squared,
a equals fifty one minus eight squared divided by 14.
And then A equals three.
Therefore, the right answer is ten, because three plus seven is 10.
Well, you could do it that way, but my way is a sure thing.
Let's try the next question. Yeah. OK.
So this next one, if 10 plus X is five more than 10.
What is the value of 2X?
Oh, that's easy.
Five times ten is fifty two times. That is a hundred.
A hundred? Wait!
So ten plus X is the same as five plus ten.
Oh, my gosh, I have dance practice.
I have to go see ya later!
Five is greater than 10.
Turns out Nina knows more about the SAT than Rocco.
He must have gotten into ULCA because of football, not academics.
Now she needs to find someone else to tutor her.
Hi. Is this where the afterschool tutoring is?
Computer support, actually.
What problem are you having?
Oh, it's not computer related, but I need help with the SAT.
SAT? That's easy. Well, in comparison to computer programing,
sounds like I came to the right place.
I have a request.
It's a little out of the ordinary.
Oh, sounds interesting. What is it?
I want you to take the SAT for me.
I don't think I heard you right.
You said you wanted me to take the SAT for you.
That's exactly what I said.
And if you do it, I'll pay you a lot of money.
You understand,
That's impossible.
It's totally possible.
And no one's going to know.
You don't understand. I can fake a fingerprint.
But now they got biometrics.
I can't fake a retinal scan.
Great! Now I'm out of options.
I'll never go to a good school.
Why don't you try tutoring? It's highly effective.
I wish. I can't find a good one.
I can tutor you and it won't be expensive.
I'm saving up for college.
Really?
Well, when can you do that?
Well, the Help Desk closes at 4:00.
I can do it after then.
4:00. OK. See you at the library?
The library. See you then.
Alma bought a laptop with
20 percent off the price with an eight percent sales tax?
What's the correct?
Hi Umm...
Nina. Nina, can I can I sit here?
Yeah, I actually need help with this problem.
Oh, let me see it.
108 percent of 80 percent. That's easy.
It's .8 times 1.08 times X
Oh, now that you put it that way, it's easy
if candidate A has 28,000 more votes out of 2.8 million.
All you do is apply the fractional difference, and the answer is C.
Wow. That makes total sense.
All right, Mary and Bob have to be related because they're the only
two that share common grandparents.
I Get it now. Those ones always messed me up.
You can't know if AB line and CD line are perpendicular,
but what you do know is that Angle, AEF and EFG
are complementary.
You know, those are always trick questions.
And you just made it perfectly clear.
It looks like our time is up.
But do you want to keep going anyway?
You know, I've learned more in this hour than I ever have before.
But can we set another date?
A date?
Yeah. How about the same time here on Thursday?
It's a date.
He knows his way around all the trick questions.
Yeah. And I think West High is going to be our toughest game yet.
And Dexter says it's never the most complicated answer.
They just put that in there to throw you off.
Speaking of throwing off. west always rushes from the weak side.
So as long as we keep a strong side offense, we're sure to win this Friday.
He also said if you sit in the front row, you're not going to get distracted
by the other test takers.
Speak in a front row.
You're lucky because you're going
have a front row seat to the game this weekend
and you can keep track of all my touchdowns.
Are we even having the same conversation right now?
Of course we are. I'm an excellent listener.
It's part of my playbook.
It's starting to look like Nina doesn't have much in common with Rocco.
But Dexter might be a different story.
I can't solve this.
Thanks for meeting me this late.
I didn't know the library would be closed. No, no worries.
So where would you like to cover today?
Yeah. So I'm supposed to estimate the average yearly increase
in the number of manatees in Florida based on the scatter plot.
Yeah, let me take a look.
Just come closer. Okay.
I just sat with a scatterplot.
You see this little line here.
What you do is that's the average of all the data that's there.
So scatterplot gives multiple stories, while bar graph only gives one point.
Just out of curiosity, do you like to have fun?
Do you play games? Oh, I'm not really into sports.
That's not what I mean.
Games like charades, Pictionary, hangman?
Are you kidding me? I'm a camp counselor.
What do you think we do for eight weeks during the summer?
I just got a great idea.
Rock, paper, scissors, rock, paper, scissors.
Oh, no, that's okay.
It's all right. We're tied.
OK. Rock. Paper. Scissors.
Rock. Paper. Scissors. Oh, I win.
Is there an H? No. Guess again.
I know, C! You got it.
And D. the word's got to be dance.
Dance! That's the winner.
I should have guessed that I love to dance.
Come dance with me.
Well, that's it for this session.
Same time, Tuesday. It's a date.
Mom, I'm home. Nina, I've been waiting for you.
We got another letter from the College Board.
Oh, my gosh. My new SAT Score?
I can't bear to open it.
You do it.
What's it say?
You got a 1316.
Oh, my gosh. This means I can go wherever I want.
Stanford, Harvard, Santa Clara.
What should I do?
Honey, no matter where you go, this changes your life.
Hey, Neener, wait up.
Rocco, why do you always call me that?
The names Nina, always has been.
Sweetie, that's my pet name for you.
You're my little pigskin.
pigskin?
You're calling me a pigskin.
Sweetie.
That's what footballs are made of. You're that important to me.
Just like football.
Oh, is that why you lost to West High last weekend?
Forget about that. We're playing north for homecoming.
And that's what I wanted to talk to you about.
What does that game have to do with me?
You know, homecoming. There's a dance.
They're going to make me king.
So you better make plans.
Homecoming dance?
I've already got plans.
What do you mean plans? I'm your boyfriend.
You're not going?
Oh, I'm going.
I'm going with Dexter.
WHAT?
Nina needed to do well on the SAT
in order to get into a good school.
She thought Rocco would be able to tutor her
because he's going to one of the hardest schools in the country.
Turns out he only got in because of his athletic ability, not his brains.
Remember, even if something looks great on the outside,
what really matters might be invisible to the eye.
