"Ok, so...yesterday you heard the lecture and you all gave me papers that missed the mark. How do I return that favor, hmm?"
She stares at them for a long time with her arms folded.
"Presents are nice. So is public speaking and personal sharing. Everyone...give me a decent example of reciprocity. If your example is below the bar I have set in my mind and am not telling you about...I'll make you do it again."

Re: 301
I kept you company on Sunday, so you told me the *right* things to write about?"Reciprocity is the idea of give and take in equal amounts between two parties. So, like, if you have a significant other, maybe one of you does the dishes and the other one does the laundry. Or if someone's absent and I let them use my notes from the class they missed, then the next time I'm out, they take notes for me. Bigger picture things are things like, alliances between nations. Like in the US and England we might have a thing like 'Hey if Canada invades, we'll get your back. But, you know, if France comes over the channel we expect you to show.'
Shep may be pouting at the idea that *everyone* tanked on their essay. He's pretty sure he did exactly what he was told.
