Jake, Reinvented

It turns out that Jake was formerly Didi’s math tutor when he went to a different school. Didi tells Jake that he looks “awesome” and complements his great party. Jake takes Didi and Jennifer to look at a pet snake that someone brought to the party, and Todd is relieved that he got away with his lie. Some other football players throw Todd up on their shoulders, and Rick thinks of him as a king of a royal court.

Having left Jake to give Didi a tour of the house, Jennifer comes back over to Rick and invites him to dance. She has just gone through a breakup and adopted a new personal mantra: “It’s all about me” (39). Rick and Jennifer debate how Jake pays for the parties, and Rick suspects that it may have something to do with the envelopes from Atlantica University.

The party lasts until after three in the morning. Todd and Melissa hook up again. Rick sees Jennifer kissing a player on the basketball team, whom she later claims not to like. Rick and Jennifer comment that Jake and Didi spent the entire night hanging out together. The football players steal Dipsy’s pants again. As everyone departs the party, Rick offers to help Jake clean up the mess, but Jake says that he has it covered.
