The rest of the gang all go to Yale to visit the campus. Dan is the only one that really wants to go for school. He wants to get into the english department. Blair really wants to go to though too. Nate wants to go because he wantsto go somewhere where people don't know his family. Chuck wants to get into a secret society. Serena wasgoing to visit Brown however with a little run in with Blair,she changes her mind.

Blair: Since we're not friends anymore, let me speak frankly. You're not that smart. You lack focus and discipline.Charm is all well and good, but in the real world, knowledge is power. You wouldn't make it past the first round of admissions at Yale no matter how hard you tried.

Serena: I know you may find this hard to believe, but not everyone wants to go to Yale because not everyone wants to be Blair Waldorf.Blair: Not everyone can be.

So Blair gets ready to go into her interveiw and out of the deans office comes Serena. The dean is loving Serena, and Blair completely crashes under pressure. She doesn't get invited to the Deans secret party that night, but Serena does. Blair is fuming.


Dan isn't having any fun either. He doesn't get his second recommendation so he can't get really apply there. The Dean tells him that he has to find another and suggests he find someone on campus.
*
Nate is having some fun, he finds a girl and happens to lie about his name claiming he is Dan Humprey because he overheard that people know he is on campus. So Nate ends up in this girls room when the real Dan comes to the dorr looking for her for the recommendation. Busted!
*
Chuck wanting to be a member of a secret society finds himself a candidate for "Skulls and Bones" Chuck impresses them by bringing some expensive hookers. They are impressed but they also want Chuck to find Nate. They want Nate because their families lost money because of Nates dad. Chuck tricks them and gives them Dan instead. SO now Dan gets beat up and tied to a pole in just his boxers.
*
Nate figures out what Chuck did and goes to find Dan. The girl that Nate was with also happens to walk by and helps Dan get untied and agrees to look at his work, and also gives Nate a kiss!

Back to Serena and Blair at the Deans party, they compete like no other! The Dean has a tradition that he asks this question "who they would like to have dinner with the most, dead or alive." Chuck tells Serena Blairs answer and Serena uses it to get back at Blair. Blair is upset so she changes the ballots and for Sereans answer she puts the guy who Serena "killed". They end up having a little fight and then they go outside where they actually attack eachother. It was great, i love Drama. They decide they can't be friends.
*
The next day they both run into eachother at the Deans office. They both went there to explain what happened. They call it a truce. Serena ends up getting a call from the dean about be accepted early. He wants to make an article about it, hes such a user! Serena says she won't go without Blair. Also, Nate is pissed at Chuck for the whole thing he pulled so he takes the train with Dan. New best buddies??
The Skulls and Bones are mad at Chuck and promise to make his life miserable if he goes to that school. Being the Chuck Bass he is, he shows them the hidden pictures he had taken with the guys and the hookers...SO basically he owns them by blackmail. I heart Chuck Bass.
