Plot
The gang are stuck inside because of a storm and Ken brings up some past memories from the previous year. Ken, Maurizio, Tony, Linda, Henry and Jackson start to have memories from the last year such as Maurizio drawing a badly drawn penis on the board, Fernando jumping in the middle of the class, the grade 8 grad trip and more. Meanwhile, Patrick and Emily are playing Halo and they hear everyone's laughter. Curious, they look in. They are reliving memories of Grade 8 and Emily asks Patrick if he will ask her out from last year, implying she wants to date. Patrick yells at Emily because he thought she was trying to piss him off or pull a mean joke. Emily says bad memories of Patrick's past awkwardness that embarrased Emily in public and his suicidal nature mid-year. They start arguing back and forth. The other 6 continued reliving memories but they made it to third grade where they had much more innocent memories like the constant in-class parties. Maurizio wonders if they want to watch a movie all together but Ken says everyone is reliving memories because their lives today suck. Confused, Maurizio goes to the next room only to see Emily and Patrick physically fighting and Emily stabbing Patricks hand. Maurizio, horrified, decides to try to calm things down by saying things about the past aren't right now and Patrick apologizes for ever thinking about asking her out, claiming that it was a longshot anyway. Patrick comes in and deals with the rest of the five. The ending has everyone going home somewhat angry and having a double scene of Patrick laying on his bed staring and Emily looking at the night sky.
