Gossip Girl：There's plenty of upside to being the spawn of the fabulously wealthy.But the downside? Super successful parents expect nothing less from their offspring.And when it comes to college,that means the ivies.It's more than just getting into college.It's setting a course for the rest of your life.And for those few who aren't legacies,the pressures are no less.When parents have sacrificed for their children's futures,what kid would wanna let them down?

　　Woman：Thank you, ladies. Good morning, students. I ask all of you to show a little sympathy for our junior class. They are almost through with ivy week.

　　Man：As is our long-standing tradition,the Constance Billard girls will be in charge of friday night's mixer and the St.Jude's boys will provide the ushers for the visiting representatives.

　　Woman：For those of you who dream of attending an Ivy League school,this mixer is the most important event of your life.

　　Man：But no pressure.

　　*************

　　Rufus：Ah, it's not that bad.

　　Dan：It looks like I shaved with a wood chipper.

　　Jenny：I was going with more of a chain saw.

　　Dan：Not helping.

　　Jenny：Not trying to.

　　Rufus：Hey, look on the bright side.You're not a hemophiliac. Otherwise you'd be in the emergency room.

　　Jenny：And that's helping?

　　Dan：Not really.

　　Rufus：Dartmouth's gonna love you.

　　Dan：Yeah, I gotta believe being able to shave is a prerequisite for attending.

　　Rufus：No one is better qualified. No one is smarter. More well-rounded.

　　Dan：Or wounded? I have a trust fund to fall back on, Dad.You know, all I have is what's up here.

　　Rufus：Well, that is the most important thing. College is about academic excellence not your stock portfolio.Besides, you're gonna do great in your interview.You take after your dad that way.Spotlight doesn't phase us.

　　Jenny：Ooh, you better hope there's not a spotlight involved. I'm your sister.It's what I do.

　　Dan：Not when it's about Dartmouth.

　　*************

　　Woman：Remember, students...

　　Chuck：Nathaniel,A little wake and back.

　　Nate：We have our interviews today.

　　Chuck：My point exactly. (whispers) I have my 1-hitter.

　　*************

　　Howie：Try not to cut me off next time.You almost knocked me over the side of the bench.

　　Nate：I didn't cut you off.I didn't mean to.

　　Howie：You win fair and square and nothing could make me prouder…till you get in the old Alma Mater, that is.

　　Nate：Dad we talked about this. About me keeping my options open, looking out west.

　　Howie：Yeah, of course. But let's get serious here.Someone with your grades wants to get into Dartmouth. You need to appear[page]分页标题[/page]

　　to be working for it.

　　Nate：Dad I…

　　Howie：Ushering the rep is a good step.

　　Nate：How come every time I brought up going to USC you act like it's a joke?

　　USC - University of Southern California

　　Howie：Nate, there's a plan here.

　　Nate：Maybe I want to make my own plan.

　　Howie：Listen your mother and I didn't work hard so you can just make things up as you go along.Dartmouth.Law school.Blair.Soon you're gonna have everything.Listen, I'm late for work. Nail that interview today.Go green!

　　Woman：As part of Ivy Week's festivities,at tomorrow night's mixer,Blair Waldorf will announce the charity.Her community outreach committee will honor this year.

　　Kati：Have you seen Serena?

　　Isabel：I wonder where she is.

　　Blair：And you know what I wonder? How I'm supposed to hear anything about Yale with all this talk about Serena.

　　*************

　　Blair：Do you remember when dad gave me my first Yale sweatshirt? I don't think any piece of clothing has ever fit me more perfectly,not to mention how adorable I found that bulldog. Remember when I asked you if I could get a bulldog? Good call, by the way,saying no.And now the big day is finally here. Soon Nate and I will be away at college. Him coming down to yale,me going up to dartmouth.Dad flying in for the Princeton game.I hope it doesn't make you feel old watching me grow up.

　　Kati：That's what I said.

　　Isabel：When you weren't supposed to be talking.

　　Man：Thank you, Miss Tedrow.

　　Lily：Serena, come on. Hurry up.You're gonna be late.

　　Serena：I am! And I know.

　　Lily：You know, you shouldn't have stayed at your brother's again. I mean, why sleep there? It's not like he can even see you. His eyes are closed.

　　Serena：Do you have one maternal bone in your entire body?

　　Lily：Serena, you need your rest okay? It's Ivy Week.

　　Serena：I know and if I can get out of this hotel room. It's my sole mission in life to impress that Brown Rep.

　　Lily：Well, I am so thrilled to hear you say that's still your plan. Because, I mean,I know it's something we've always talked about.But honestly, since you've been back,I've wondered if your mind was even on college.

　　Serena：Look mom, I've had my mind on a lot of things. But since recent events,going away to college sounds pretty good.

　　Lily：How…how did you leave things with dan?

　　Serena：I don't want to talk about it.

　　Lily：What's going on with you and Blair?

　　Serena：Mom, please! Look, all I wanna do is just finish high school in peace and go away to a state with lots of people who don't know who I am and just start over, okay?[page]分页标题[/page]

　　Lily：Take a cab. Don't walk.

　　*************

　　Serena：(under breath) Oh god. (normal voice)God! Please don't tell me it's over.

　　Dan：What? You were there. I would say it's pretty over.

　　Serena：I meant the assembly.

　　Dan：Oh, right. No, yeah. No, it just ended now.

　　Serena：Damn it.

　　Dan：Anyway, good luck.

　　Serena：Yeah, you too.

　　Blair：Oh, too bad you missed the assembly.Not that it matters. Brown doesn't offer degrees in slut.

　　Blair：Then you must be delusional.

　　Serena：Thank you.

　　Referee：Running out of colors here,Blair.

　　Serena：And I'm running out of patience. Enough, okay?

　　Blair：It's enough when I say it's enough.

　　Referee：Girls, break it up!

　　Blair：Get off of me!

　　Serena：Is that enough yet?! So we've actually come to physical blows, huh? Truth?

　　Blair：Ow! My leg!

　　Referee：Serena you're out of here.

　　Serena：I hope it's broken.
