Scene transition of Lance talking to George at Square Canteen. Day time.
Lance: "What do you think?"
George: "I don't think I've ever seen you like this since 3rd Year with Nikki..."
Lance: "????"
George: "You're in love... and I keep telling you, a girlfriend isn't the only thing in the world to have..."
Scene transitions to Mark and Andrew accompanying Abbie down Lake Avenue at night. Scene transitions with Aldrich talking to Abbie at the gate that separates the POLCA Dorms and the On-campus Men's dorm. Scene transitions back to Lance and George at Square Canteen.
George: "...you still have academics don't you?"
***
George voice over: "If there's one thing I can take with me and remember always more than the rest of what's happened to me this past semester... it's the fact that I've met new friends and became part of this tropa..."
Sequence of scenes of the tropa eating out at McDo Waltermart... the tropa connecting tables at KFC... the tropa waiting for a jeepnee to ride together back to La Salle at the sakayan in front of AMA Cavite at night...
