Be More Chill

The bell rings, and school starts, but Jeremy stays in the bushes with Rich, Abby, and Brooke. They smoke weed together, but Jeremy’s SQUIP filters out the active compounds so that he will not get high. The SQUIP warns him not to drink or use other chemicals that would impair their communication. Jeremy begins to kiss Brooke while Rich makes out with Abby. The SQUIP coaches him mentally on how to pleasure her, advising him to play with her nipple. She seems uncomfortable, and when Jeremy takes off her shirt to lick her nipple, he discovers that she has an infected nipple piercing. Brooke is embarrassed, and they stop kissing, but the SQUIP tells Jeremy to be nice to girls unless they are “ugly,” because she might tell her friends that he was a good kisser.

Jeremy goes through the day at school with his SQUIP off but turns it on at rehearsal. He watches Christine, finding her more attractive than Brooke. The SQUIP informs him that if he has sex with other women, he will begin to give off pheromones that will make Christine more attracted to him. Mark snaps him on the back of the neck with a rubber band.
