- Ok, now we're going
to talk about

demographics.
Now I know it sounds

complicated,
but it's really not.

Y'see, sometimes a company
wants to sell a product

to men,
sometimes to women.

Or sometimes age is an issue
if they want to just

consider--
[computer beeps]

- You're supposed to keep
your sound off!

- [groans]

- Zoey?
- Um, yes, sir?

- You know there's
a rule against

instant messaging in class.

Were you?
- Maybe.

- Well,
if your IM is so important,

then why don't you read it
out loud to the class?

- Um, I don't think you want
me to do that.

- Read the message.

- "Hey Zo, you think

Mr. Bender knows
his zipper's down?"

[students laugh]

- Oh, boy,
that's stuck.

Uh,
does anyone have pliers?

- Excuse us, Mr. Bender?

- Hey, Todd.

- Can Debra and I make
an announcement to the class?

- Yes.
- Thanks!

Hey, fellow PCA students!

- What's up, Stingrays!
Yeah!

- Now, I know we
don't have to remind you

that the PCA school dance
is coming up.

- And I'm sure some of you
have thought about

who you'd like to ask.

DEBRA: Now, asking someone
to a dance can be

a little awkward.

- So this year,
you don't have to!

- Why not?

- 'Cause we thought it
would be so much funner

if we all took
personality tests

and then had a computer
match us up

based on how compatible
our personalities are.

- Personality tests rock!

- Any questions?

- Yeah, how do we get out
of doing this?

- Oh, c'mon,
it's gonna be super fun.

- You'll all get to meet
a new person

who shares the same
interests as you.

- Your perfect match!

- So just go online
to PCAtest.com,

fill out your
personality test...

- Then e-mail it in,
the computer

will do its thing,
and poof!

- You've got a date
to the dance!

- Yeah!

[zipper zips up]

MR. BENDER: Got it!
Oh!

Uh...

got my zipper up.

- Ok, I cannot wait
to go back

to our dorm and take my
personality test.

- I can rate your
personality right now.

- Dana.
- Whatever.

All I know is this school
is 90% guys.

- So?

- So, we're girls.

- Oh, so that's why
I have those bras in my drawer.

- What I mean is,
there's way more boys

here at PCA,
so we're bound to get

matched up
with some awesome guys.

Think about it.

ALL: Yeah.

- This dance
is gonna be awesome.

[all laugh]

- This dance
is gonna be lame.

- So lame.
- Way lame.

I don't wanna meet new people.
It was hard enough meeting

the people I already met.

- Yeah, besides,
we could be in big trouble

with this whole computer
match-up thing.

- How so?
- Think about it.

PCA is only 10% girls.

That's not a lot to choose from.

- He's right.
Think of the girls

we could get matched up with.

ALL: Yeah.

- Aw, man. I gotta run.
- Yo, where to?

- Well, I signed up
to be a campus guide

for a foreign exchange student.

- you're gonna baby-sit
some foreign guy?

- No, I'm gonna baby-sit
some foreign girl.

- Ahh.
[laughs]

- See ya.

- Good luck.

You know, Michael's right.

This whole dance,
this computer match-up thing,

it's a big problem.

- Yeah? I know what your
problem is.

- What do you mean?

- You don't wanna get
matched up with someone

'cause you want to ask Zoey.

- Dude, when are you gonna
get it through your head

that I just like Zoey
as a friend?

- Fine.
Then I won't tell you

how you could take Zoey
to the dance.

- Well, you know,
just out of curiosity, uh,

how could I take her?

- Ok,

the computer matches you up
with someone based on

the answers you give on
your compatibility test, right?

- Yeah. So?

- Then all you gotta do
is answer your questions

the same way Zoey would.

- But I don't know
how Zoey's gonna answer

the questions.

- Well, then you'd better
find out.

'Cause if you can
match her answers,

then you get
matched up with Zoey.

- Oh, come on, that's--
that's brilliant.

- Hey, some guys
are brilliant,

some guys are great looking,

I just happen to be both.

Later, man.
- Later.

- Uh, Allie?

- No, I'm not Allie.

- Uh, are you sure?
Why don't I just give you

a couple of minutes,
think about it,

please say yes.

- No, sorry.

- Excuse, please?
You are Michael?

- Yeah. What's up?

- I am Ollie.

The foreign exchange student
for you.

Ollie.

- Ollie?

But you're a guy!

- Yeah,
it is so pleasant to meet you.

[smooching]
- [grunting]

What are you doing?!

- I am sorry.
In my country,

that is how a person
greets a new friend.

- Yeah, well,
in this country,

that's how you get punched
in the head.

- [laughs]

Ahh, good one.

Oh, you make me laugh.

Oh! Ohh!

- [sighs]
Personality test.

Let's see what we got here.

Number one:
"What's your favorite fruit?"

Number 2:
"Are you easily frightened?"

Boo!

- What was that?

- Nothing.
So, uh...

whatcha eating there?

An apple?

- Mm-hmm.

- Cool.
So, uh...

would you say that apples
are your favorite fruit?

- Uh, yeah, I guess.

- Cool.

- Number 7:

"What is your
favorite activity?"

Meeting...

cute...

guys.

Next question:

"What is your number one
pet peeve?"

Not...

meeting...

cute...

guys.

- Hey, Zo.
- Oh, hi.

- Hey, look what I got.

- What?

- It's the Gummy Zoo
collection!

They got every animal in here
you can think of,

in gummy form.

Ooh, an octopus.

Mm. You want one?

- Sure.
- Which one?

Which one do you want?

- I don't care.
Don't they all taste the same?

- Well, yeah, I guess.

I mean,
but if you're gonna have one,

it might as well be
an animal you like.

Perhaps your favorite.

So, uh, which one might
that be?

- I don't know,
a giraffe?

- Giraffe, got it.

- Ok.

What is your best quality?

- Just one?
That's insane.

I have like nine hundred
amazing qualities.

- Logan,
what are you doing?

- I'm answering my questions for
the dance match-up thing.

Patrick's typing for me.

- Why?

- He gave me $9.00.

- Can't you type
your own answers?

- Not while I'm tanning.

Hey, hand me that lotion,
would you?

- All right, so,
I need your best quality.

- Just put...

"All of them."

- Hey, Zoey, guys.
- Hey.

- Hey, Chase.

MAN: ♪ Well, she took

- Uh, Chase?

- Oh, what,
you don't like country music?

Well, what kind of music
would you like to hear?

- I don't know.
Hip-hop?

- Hip-hop, got it.

- Ok, settle down,
settle down.

The computer has
tabulated the results

of your
personality tests.

- And we've posted your
matches for the dance

on the board behind us.

- So, if you'll just form
an orderly line--

[students clamoring]

Ow. Ow. Ow.

- So let's see here,
who's my lucky girl?

Who's Olivary Biallo?

- Michael!

So we go
to dance together, yeah?

- Wait.

You're Olivary Biallo?!

- Yeah!

Ollie is short for Olivary.

- Lord, what did I do?

What?

- He better be cute.
He better be cute.

[gasps]
He better be cute.

He better be cute.
He--Nicholas Webber.

Hmmm. I wonder who he is.
- Hey, are you Nicole?

'Cause you look like a Nicole!
- I know! Don't I?!

Wait, are you Nicholas?!
You look like a Nicholas!

- Yeah!

- We're going to
the dance together!

- Yeah!
- Whoo!

- Oh, man.

Dana?

- Logan?

No way.

- C'mon Zoey. C'mon Zoey.

C'mon Zoey. C'mon Zoey.

C'mon Zoey...Zoey! Yes! Ha!

- Hey, Chase,
what's up?

- Hh, hey, Zoey.
Get this:

we got paired up
to go to the dance together.

- Really? That's great.

- Yeah, go figure.

- Huh. That's weird.

- What? What's weird?

- It says I got matched up
with some guy

named Glen Davis.

- What?!
No, no, no, no, no.

Look, here's my name,
Chase Matthews.

Dot dot dot...Zoey Brooks.

- Yeah, but here's my name,
Zoey Brooks,

dot dot dot...
Glen Davis.

- Glen Davis?
Who is Glen Davis?

- I am.

- Oh. Well, uh,
sorry, dude,

but I got matched up
with Zoey.

- Uh, according to
the board, so did I.

- I see.
Well, let's just settle this

right now.
Come on, Zoey.

- You hooked me up
with a guy!

- Hello.

- But I don't see
the problem.

- Um, excuse us...

- Hey!
Everybody having fun?

- Actually, we have
a little problem.

- Ohh,
problems don't rock.

- Yeah, see,
I got matched up with Zoey--

- So did I.

- Which is obviously
a mistake.

Would you tell this Glen guy
it's a mistake?

- Huh. Yep.

Looks like there was a tie.

- That is a problem.

- No,
this is the problem!

- Oh, Michael,

your fingernails are so filthy.

- Give me that!

- No!

[Zoey sighs]

- Look, Glen,
I got matched up with Zoey

so I'm taking Zoey
to the dance.

- Well, I also got
matched up with Zoey,

so maybe we should
let her decide

who she wants to go with.

-
Ok. Sure. Zoey?

This would be
the perfect time to tell Glen

that you're going to
the dance with me.

- Listen, Zoey,
I know this puts you

in an awkward position.

So, whoever you choose,
it's cool with me.

- Oh, aren't you sensitive?

- Look, I'm just trying to
make things--

- Guys, I'm not gonna
decide right here, right now.

I mean,
I need to figure this out.

- You take your time.

- Yeah. No rush.
Just let us know.

- I will.
Well, later.

- I wouldn't start shining
your dancing shoes yet, Glen.

- I don't have
dancing shoes.

I don't think
anyone does anymore.

- I know that.
I'm just saying.

I've been friends with Zoey
ever since her first day

here at PCA,
so I think it's very clear

who she's gonna pick.

You picked Glen?!

- Well, yeah.

- Why?

- 'Cause the whole point
of the dance

is to meet new people
and, you and me,

we're already friends.

- Yeah, but there's
a lot of stuff

you don't know about me.

I'm a very complex person.

Like, did you know that I can
whistle through my nose?

[nose whistles]

- Yeah.
Remember you whistled

happy birthday through your nose
to me last month?

- Oh, yeah.
Well, did you know

my favorite band of all
time is--

- The Beatles.
- Favorite cereal?

- Puffin Munch.
- My greatest fear?

- Raccoons.

- They'll bite ya.

It's happened to people.

- Look,
I gotta go to class.

We'll talk later.

Don't be sad!

- Did you know
that when I was little,

I thought that babies came from
outer space?

- Well, don't they?

- Run along.

- Ok, we ready?

- Mirror check.

- What do you think?

- Hmm, I think our hair
looks a little too "done."

- yeah.

[dance music playing]

- Hey, Chase.

- Oh, hey, Zoey.

Glen.

- Isn't this dance awesome?

I love this whole tiki theme.

- Oh, yeah.

It's great.

- Hey, Chase, you know,
if you want,

you can hang out with
me and Zoey

on the dance floor.

- Nah, it's cool.

I think I'll just stay here

with my punch bowl
and my buds.
