TeeVee for Beginners, Friday Period Two

"We are nearing the end of our time together," Mitchell started. He was seated on the back of his own couch, lounging in his own way. "So you'll all have to kiss each other off and say goodbye for good. At least 'till you run into each other on the stairs when you head back home from class."

He gestured to the TV, which was now set up in the middle of the room. "Last week, you picked a program," he said, "Today, I want to hear about it. Did you have fun, or was it boring? Was it what you expected? What did you look for in a program to begin with? Would you recommend it to anyone else? Who were your favorite characters, that sort of thing. And then I'll judge you all ruthlessly. Better start cowering behind your sofas."

He grinned. "Then as a final treat," he finished, "I've got one last thing to show you, so don't run out. I'm sure all the alcohol and teenage flirtation can hold for another twenty minutes."

"Yeah? Did anything interesting blow up?"

Mitchell was pretty easy with his exams, here.

"A lot of cars," Alex recalled. "A few buildings. A yacht!"

"A whole yacht?" Mitchell repeated, frowning in mock-astonishment for an instant before dropping back into amused. "Now that's teaching them who's in charge."

"There was apparently a bomb on it and it was better to blow it up then to let the ship run into a harbor full of people and explode," Alex said. "It was kind of lame ending but the explosion was pretty cool."

The sad thing was that there was a 50/50 chance that at some point, Mitchell was going to glee at George about all of his students and he'd cheerfully recount the awesome one who liked all the explosions.

He was just special that way.

"Well, who needs to finish up storylines when you can just blow them to pieces?"

"That's pretty much what I thought too," Alex said with a nod of his head. "Two months from now, I won't remember what the hell the characters did but I'll remember the yacht exploding."
