"History 101" is the first episode of the fourth season of ''Community'', which originally aired on February 7, 2013 on NBC. The episode was written by Andy Bobrow and directed by Tristram Shapeero. The episode makes heavy use of a parody focusing on ''The Hunger Games''. This episode marks the first in the series to have no involvement from series creator Dan Harmon. ==Plot== The episode begins in an imaginary version of Greendale Community College created in the mind of Abed, entitled "Abed's Happy Community College Show", which features parody elements poking fun at sitcom cliches, including the use of multi-camera production, a laugh track and the character of "Pierce" being portrayed by a guest star (Fred Willard). Abed is using the fictional show as a coping mechanism to deal with fear of losing the study group following graduation. In the real world, the study group assembles at Greendale to take part in their new History class ("History of Ice Cream"), only to discover that the class was over-booked due to forgery. Dean Pelton, in an effort to award seats to the appropriate number of students, organizes The Hunger Deans, a series of physical challenges which will grant seats in the class. During the episode, Troy and Britta's newfound relationship becomes strained, and Annie attempts to pull pranks on the Dean. Jeff, desperate to prove he has changed for the better, takes part in the Dean's games to earn the study group seats in the class after upsetting the group by revealing he planned to graduate early without them. Abed becomes increasingly strained by the prospect of the group's graduation, and further retreats into his mind, creating a TV Show within the fictional TV Show in his mind, called Greendale Babies, portraying the group as animated infants that will be together forever. Eventually, the group bands together to help Abed. Inside of the fictional "Abed's Happy Community College Show", Jeff delivers a speech implying that the group will always be friends (despite the fact Jeff in the real world gives no speech), and Abed is able to accept the fact that the group will not disband after graduation. The group is unable to make it into the history of ice cream class. After, it is revealed that Dean Pelton has moved in next-door to Jeff at his apartment building, and that Greendale will have to offer another history class or lose "like $40,000 in grant money." Ben Chang, naked and delirious, approaches a mailman on the street, handing him a note that says: "Hello, my name is Kevin. I have Changnesia." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「History 101 (Community)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
