In the new movie Booksmart, high school senior Molly (Beanie Feldstein) resolves to attend a blowout house party the night before graduation, worrying that she and her best friend Amy (Kaitlyn Dever) will become the girls who missed out on fun.

We are not one-dimensional! We are smart! And fun! Molly, the Yale-bound class president and valedictorian, declares.

Mollys plan stems from a horrific realization, revealed in a horror movie-style slow-motion sequence. To her surprise, several of the popular kids inform her that they got into elite colleges too, despite how little work they appear to do. (Molly describes class vice president Nick as allergic to work.)

The disdain is mutual: Earlier in the movie, Molly overhears some of them in the bathroom, denigrating her as a no-nonsense, workaholic shrew.

She always acts like shes 40, one of them says.

Her vagina is probably stuffed with diplomas, another says.

Molly emerges from her bathroom stall.

Soon, its going to be stuffed with job offers, glossy [magazine] profiles, and commendations from the governor! she retorts, determined to prove that her work ethic will pay off while you guys were all taking AP Handjobs.
