Blurb
"Trust me! No one's going to mistake a short potato like you for an adult." - Aaron Lycan

Summary
The camera starts with Aphmau in her room contemplating about how long it has been since she and Aaron have seen each other. She is soon interrupted by Tera asking her if she is done yet when Tera teases her for picking out her outfit like she was going to some sort of prom instead of a college class. Aphmau responds back surprised that Tera is back so early, and starts thinking that she spent forever on picking out her dress, but she is soon reassured that she isn't when Tera tells Aphmau that she is the one that came back early because when she went to her first class, the professor didn't show, so all of the students just left. Tera says that that wasn't what she expected to have on the first day, and Aphmau also seems surprised, but eventually says that it sounds pretty cool as well. Tera still says that it was a kind of a let down. Tera then asked Aphmau why she is taking so long to decide on what to wear stating that for as long as she has known Aphmau she has never been one to care about what she is going to wear. Aphmau lies to Tera in response saying that she just wants to look good for her first day of college. Aphmau then notices that Tera is wearing her pajamas and asks her if she actually wore her pajamas to class. Terra responds with a confident yes saying that at home she would be yelled for doing it by her mom, but at college no one seems to care. She then says that she just might do it all the time with all of her classes. She then asks Aphmau how many classes she has, and Aphmau responds saying 2, while Tera has 4. Tera then asks Aphmau if she wants to grab breakfast, but Aphmau says that she has classes to attend, and then she needs to meet an old friend. Tera understands and walks off to get her breakfast. Aphmau then thinks if she is overthinking on what to wear saying that she wants Aaron to notice that she has matured. She then comes to a point where she thinks that he is just an old friend, and she should just stop worrying about, and that she should get to class. She leaves the wardrobe, but soon comes back after 2 seconds saying that she is ugly and she seriously needs a change of clothes. The camera then shifts to outside her dorm room and into the sky and flashes the series logo.

The scene then shifts to Aaron who is thinking to himself about getting a haircut or changing his clothes. He is then interrupted by one of his dad's agents coming in the room. Aaron tells the agent that he is supposed to knock before coming in, but the agent tells Aaron that he knocked already, and Aaron was probably lost in thought. He asked Aaron what he was thinking, and Aaron responded back with saying that he was thinking about getting a haircut. The agent says that if Aaron wants a haircut then they can get someone to come to the dorm room for them. Aaron says that he would like to go to the salon like a normal person, but the agent says that they would have to ask Aaron's father about that, and that Aaron is already on thin ice with his father. Aaron responds by putting his head down in disappointment, but the agent consoles him saying that he bought him a coffee from the cafe, and told Aaron to put it outside the room when he was done with it for recycling. When the agent leaves the room Aaron says to himself that's it bad that he has to get watched all the time, and that it was even worse when his dad's agents were cocky about it. Aaron then looks at the clock, and says that he needs to meet with Aphmau soon. The rest of the scene consists of Aaron thinking of a plan to get out of the dorm room undetected by the agents.

The scene then shifts to right outside the cafe when Aphmau encounters Garroth. Garroth greets Aphmau and asks her what is getting up to, and Aphmau responds back saying that she just came to the cafe to get coffee, when she really came to meet with Aaron. Garroth then says that he would like to chat more, but he has class soon, and that they could catch up some other time. Aphmau agrees to this, and Garroth walks off towards his class. While Garroth is walking off he contemplates to himself whether he rushed the encounter or kept it too slow. The scene then shifts back to Aphmau who is waiting for Aaron in the cafe. She says that it's been over 20 minutes since they were supposed to meet, and says that she will wait a bit more longer. After more time has passed Aphmau concludes that Aaron must have forgot about the meeting or had a reason not to attend. She then recalls that the Aaron back in high school always kept to his word or had a good reason not to. She then says that she has to get going. She then thinks that maybe he wasn't the Aaron that Aphmau knew back then. The camera scene then shifts back to Aaron who is seen putting pillows under his blanket to make it look like he is sleeping when he really isn't. He then looks up at the clock to realize that he is going to be late soon. He then jumps out of the window, and when he lands down he realizes that he didn't think about how he was going to get back up. He then says to just screw it and he was going to get back up there later. He then says that it is almost an hour after, and she is probably gone, but he sees that she is just going, and he pursues after her.

The scene changes to Ken and Diana. Diana notices Aaron which Ken notices. He then calls out Diana for it, but Diana tells him to just move on from his high school emo faze, but Ken just says that she is just trying to get him to conform which is met by a whatever from Diana. The scene then changes back to Aphmau who is contemplating on what to do. Aaron then approaches her and calls her miss. Aphmau turns around to see who it is, and Aaron greets her. Aphmau asked him if he called her miss, and if she really looked that old. Aaron then puts his hand on her shoulder, and said not to worry because no one would ever think a short potato like her would look like an adult. Aphmau then asks angrily if she looks like a kid, and Aaron gives a panic stricken no. Aphmau then asks why he called her a potato, and that she shook that name off in high school, but it is met by a snarky reply by Aaron saying that people probably called her that behind her back considering that potatoes don't have ears. Aphmau then tells him to shut up and just hug her. When they hug Aphmau says that she missed him a lot. During the hug Aaron realizes that he finally hugging Aphmau once again, and starts to get nervous causing him to pull away suddenly, and Aph asks what is wrong.

The scene then shifts to Jenny and Cathy when Jenny is talking about something about dumplings and Betty. Cathy then stops Jenny and asks if that is her hunk Aaron, and Jenny gives a love struck yes. Cathy says that she thinks that he is talking to that girl. Jenny responds back saying that he never talks to anyone desperately. She then notices that it is Aphmau and describes her to Cathy. The scene then shift's to Aaron who is panicking about being caught by the agents. He asks Aphmau to go to her room and talk, and she says yes. The scene goes to Jenny and she notices that they are walking together and Cathy says that they must be close. Cathy then tell her whatever helps her sleep at night and says that they have to go. Jenny then says that she is thankful Aaron is back and that she has her chance to get close to him again.

The scene then goes to Aphmau and Aaron in Aphmau's room. Aaron compliments Aphmau's room, and they have a bit of playful chatter. Aphmau then asks about Aaron's bandanna. Aaron says that he can see through it, and Aphmau asks why it sounds familiar. Aaron intentionally ignores the question and asks her questions of his own. Luka then knocks on the door, and Aphmau tells Aaron to hide and he does so accordingly. Luka then brings Aphmau coffee basically and Aphmau thanks her. Aphmau asks why Luka calls herself mom. Luka says that she basically decided to sarcastically adopt her which is basically her way of thinking of her as a friend. They have some playful chatter and then Luka leaves her alone. Aphmau then asks Aaron if he was hiding from her intentionally, but Tera this time interrupts them. Aphmau tells Aaron to hide again and he does it again. Tera is panicking because she needs to find something to bring to her class, and Aphmau tries helping her. Aaron thinks back to a flashback when his dad broke his phone since he was communicating with Aphmau through texting. Aaron tries to make an excuse, but his dad sees past it,and calls Aaron a monster and gives him more punishments by tightening the security and putting watch on his internet time. His dad says that if he hears Aaron is seeing Aphmau again then he will make sure that they will never see each other again. Tera asks if what she needs is under the bed, and Aphmau responds hesitantly saying no. Tera goes to look in the boxes, but Aphmau signals for Aaron to see if he found anything he gives her the thing Tera needs. Aphmau gives it to Tera who leaves them alone. Aaron comes out from the bed. Aaron tells Aphmau that he can't tell, and Aphmau asks if he has the courage to tell one day will he tell her, and Aaron responds yes, and Aphmau understands, and they exchange warm smiles. Then Aphmau tries to play with the bandanna, but they are interrupted by Tera intruding and finding them alone. Tera at first is surprised, but then gives Aphmau a teasing look and giggles at them. She then leaves them alone when Aphmau says that it wasn't what it looks like. Aaron asks hesitantly if she is going to tell anyone, but Aphmau says no, but Tera will tease her about it. Aphmau's timer then goes off signaling that she needs to get to class. Aaron asks if she needs help getting to her class, and Aphmau says yes, and that they should meet again like this. Aaron says yes, and then thanks Aphmau for understanding, and Aphmau says that they are friends, and that it wasn't a problem since she trusts him. Aphmau then tells him to help her get to class. The camera then shows them leaving and then does a view of Aphmau's dorm room and finally plays the outro ending the episode.
