Alright. Graduation day. Don't mess this up. Find a good outfit, brush your hair, everything.
Driving in my car, lookin' like a star, goin' pretty far, yeah.
Ah, finally here. I wonder when they'll call my name.
Weird... it should've been called by now. Oh well, probably saving me for honor roll.
Wait wait wait... it's ending!? I haven't gotten my diploma yet!
"Excuse me, I didn't hear my name called. Did you overlook it or-"
"You cheated on your final exam, and many others."
What? What's he talking about?
"I never cheated on anything. I would never do that!"
"We've closely investigated your work, and deduced you have cheated on a large fraction of your assignments."
No... no no no... I've been framed!
"I never cheated on anything! I swear on my life!"
"We've already put the grades in. There's no changing it now. You can come back next year if you are so inclined. Just don't cheat and you might get it next time."
Who does this guy think he is? Accusing me of cheating for no reason?
"If I don't get my diploma, I won't get in the college I wanna go to! I'll do anything!"
"αиутнιиg?"
The hell? Why is everything frozen? And who's- Why is he grinning like that?
"нσω вα∂ ∂σ уσυ ωαит тнє ∂ιρℓσмα? ωσυℓ∂ уσυ... кιℓℓ fσя ιт?"
"Are you trying to get my soul like Satan? Cause if so, I'm not taking the deal."
"∂σи'т ωσяяу... уσυ'ℓℓ вє fιиє. αѕ ℓσиg αѕ уσυ ℓιѕтєи."
Who is this weirdo?
"Fine. If it gets me into college, I'll do it."
"gσσ∂. тнαт'ѕ 1/7."
