"Introduction to Statistics" is the seventh episode of the first season of the American comedy television series ''Community'', airing on NBC on October 29, 2009. Annie (Alison Brie) hosts a Dia de los Muertos party, the success of which depends on Jeff (Joel McHale) attending. At the party, Pierce gets high, causing trouble for the other characters. Jeff pursues their statistics professor, Professor Michelle Slater (Lauren Stamile). Finally, Shirley (Yvette Nicole Brown) is distressed due to her ex-husband's behavior. ==Plot== Annie (Alison Brie) announces to the Spanish class that she will be hosting a Dia de los Muertos party for extra credit later that night. Annie hopes everyone will attend the Mexican Halloween party, especially Jeff (Joel McHale), believing his popularity will influence others to come. Jeff checks in with Britta (Gillian Jacobs) to make sure that she doesn't see anything ever happening between them because he has decided to ask out his statistics professor. After Britta confirms this, Jeff waits after his statistics class that afternoon to ask Professor Michelle Slater (Lauren Stamile) out, but is rejected when she states that she doesn't date students. Annie catches up with Jeff in the hallway to make sure he agrees to come to her party. She breaks down in tears while remembering her lack of popularity in high school, stating that crossing guards would lure her into traffic. He agrees to stop by. At the Halloween party, the study group is dressed in their Halloween costumes: Britta came as a modest squirrel, Troy (Donald Glover) as Eddie Murphy, Abed (Danny Pudi) as Batman, Shirley (Yvette Nicole Brown) as Harry Potter, and Pierce (Chevy Chase) as Beastmaster. Jeff does not wear a costume. Senor Chang (Ken Jeong), dressed as a matador, lets Jeff know that his professor crush is attending the faculty party in the cafeteria. Starburns (Dino Stamatopoulos) runs into Pierce. Starburns is in the middle of taking prescription pills in the bathroom to get high. Starburns suggests Pierce trade some of his pills for the ones that Starburns has; Pierce agrees, trying to act cool. Jeff asks Senor Chang to make him his "plus one" to the faculty party so he can see Professor Slater. Chang agrees, once Jeff offers him 20 bucks. Jeff quietly grabs his coat and leaves Annie's party before anyone notices. Annie gathers everyone from the party in a circle to start the dancing. She invites Jeff up to have the first dance of the night with her. Once everyone realizes Jeff has left the party, people threaten to leave. Starburns states that he has to get home in time to watch the news, an excuse Annie predicted should Jeff not attend. Britta tries to cover for him, enlisting Shirley to help get him back. Pierce, meanwhile, is high and begins hitting on Annie, who rebuffs his advances. Jeff makes it into the faculty Halloween party wearing a cowboy costume by adding a western hat. He finds Professor Slater dressed in a revealing Robin Hood outfit and immediately makes advances on her. Britta interrupts their conversation to convince Jeff to go back to Annie's party. Meanwhile, Abed and Troy need help with Pierce, and Shirley defaces Professor Slater's car out of anger. Britta catches Shirley in Professor Slater's office with a water hose. Britta is able to stop her, but Shirley breaks down and confesses that her anger has to do with her ex-husband and not Professor Slater. Pierce begins to lose control because of the drugs, driving everyone out of the party. Back at the faculty party, Chang gives Jeff some advice to boost his ego so he can continue wooing Professor Slater. After talking to Chang, Jeff approaches Professor Slater and tries a direct approach, which seems to work. Professor Slater agrees to sleep with him. As Jeff and Professor Slater leave the faculty party, they walk by the library, where Pierce has barricaded himself in with office furniture. Jeff tries to ignore the cries for help, but agrees to walk away from Slater to help his friends. Jeff enters the fortress, where he successfully calms Pierce down. The fortress begins to cave in, right as Abed, dressed as Batman, comes to rescue them. The episode ends with Jeff dancing with Annie as Abed narrates as Batman over the proceedings. 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「Introduction to Statistics (Community)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
