The scene is a college campus, outdoors. The boyfriend, sitting alone, has his head in a textbook. Along comes a flirtatious blonde female student — the very girl his parents mentioned in “Advice” as an alternative to his current girlfriend. The flirtatious student plops down next to her crush, startling him. She playfully asks what he’s doing, and after he tells her he’s studying for a science exam, she asks him out on a casual date.
He confesses that he already has a girlfriend, at which point she stands back up, still smiling, and hints that her offer remains open anyway. She then blithely skips away, leaving him shaking his head dismissively before resuming his studies.
The music during his initial studying is intentionally stiff and formal in style. I sought here to reflect my own impressions of school.
