Episode 6: The Trouble with Pop

"The Trouble with Pop" is episode six of the 1st season of The University.

Summary
Colt attempts to go to counciling, but cannot find Thomas anywhere. After leaving his office, he discovers him crying outside. Apparently, his wife Lucinda had left him. With this news, Colt arrives to the study room to chat with the gang. Chet and Melvin mention that Colt should finally get with Brigitte, but are interrupted with Melvin telling Chet that he is going to be spending the day with singer/songwriter Vincent Octavius. Chet freaks out at this news, and asks to tag along. They go to Vincent's arrival ceremony with Melvin, and Chet sneaks backstage with them. Vincent informs Melvin that Chet has been stalking him for months, and continually sends him nude photos. Meanwhile, Brigitte finally agrees to allow Colt to take her on a date, however he must find a unique way to ask her. Melvin spends the rest of the day with Vincent, who shows him the ropes to "being cool", all the while Chet stalks them around town. Colt attempts futile ways of asking Brigitte out during the day. Being fueled by the added confidence Vincent gave, Melvin attempts to woo Brigitte over. Brigitte tells him that he was fine just the way he was, and that they both know Colt is trying to ask her out. Melvin comes up with a way Colt can finally get with her, and writes a song for Vincent to sing to Brigitte. He does so while Colt is behind her, and the two finally get together.
