The opening ends to Weiss patiently waiting out the minute left on her holographic clock displayed from her desk in the classroom of Professor Peter Port, whose dialogue is merely background nonsense as Jaune slides up next to Weiss.

Jaune: So, Weiss, y'know, uh, I-I was thinking after this, maybe we could go grab a bite to eat? (Turns to the teacher for a second, then turns back around.) And, uh um, I-I've got two tickets to that new Spruce Willis movie, if you wanna make the trip to Vale. I hear it's awesome. (Pauses as his words have no effect.) Aaaand maybe after that, we could study together? I mean, you're smart and I'm, uh... Y'know.

Finally, the clock in front of Weiss gives a shrill beep as it changes from 3:59 to 4:00, and she dismisses it with a wave of her hand. The professor is temporarily unaware of the alarm.

Port: (Posing as a towering monster about to attack.) And then I— Oh. (Straightens his stance as the students start to leave.) Timed that one wrong, I guess. Well, the stunning conclusion to this story will have to wait. Until next time! 

Rody was thankful to leave. Mainly because he was tired of cringing at Jaune's attempts to hang out with Weiss.

Jaune: (Watching Weiss as she packs up her Scroll.) Weiss? Did you hear me?

Weiss: (Not even looking at Jaune as she walks away.) No, no, no, yes.

Donald: (as he walks out) Ouch.

Upon hearing this, Jaune groans and does a faceplant into his desk.

Rody: (As the rest of Team RWBY walks out of class behind him, Rody ruffles Jaune's hair without even looking.) One day, bud.

Hallway

As Rody was walking down the hallway to the dorms, Sun and Neptune approach Rody from behind as Sun grabs his shoulder.

Sun: Rody!

Rody: Dah! Oh, it's you two. You scared me there!

Sun: HaHa, I thought you were some kind of prodigy, getting scared over something like that?

Rody: To be fair, I'm in my safe space, so my guard's down right now.

Neptune: Cool... So, we just wanted to check up on what you were doing later?

Rody: Well... Hmmm...

Rody's Mental Gears started turning.

Team RWBY's room

A closeup of Ruby's hands as she straps the red laces of her shoes. Switch to a closeup of Weiss' hand gripping the handle of Myrtenaster strapped to her side. Switch to a closeup of Yang's Ember Celica over her left forearm as she slides the chamber. Switch to a closeup of Blake tightening the black ribbons around her arms. Switch to full view of Team RWBY's preparations, revealing their new outfits.

Blake: (Approaching her bunk as she tightens her wraps.) I thought that class would never end.

Ruby: (From her position sitting on the hanging bed) Alright, guys, today's the day! The investigation begins!

Happily leaps off her mattress and onto the floor, arms raised excitedly. She almost lands on Weiss, who is on the bottom bunk.

Weiss: (sarcastically) I'm glad to see we're taking this so seriously.

Yang: Hey, we've got a plan! That's... moderately serious.

Edit: Go to Rody and Donald's bios to know what their new outfits are like.

Ruby: Right! (looks around at her teammates, as Rody and Donald walk in as well)

Rody: We're good to go.
