    Emma's first solo episode definitely did not go as expected. Originally, this was supposed to be titled "Trying to Find Your Path in College feat. Lily and Marcus", in which Emma interviews two of her high school friends about their college careers and personal journeys. However, the recordings for these conversations were lost, leaving Emma in a bad mood. She talks about all of the ways she recovers from a bad day and gives her own perspective. Alas, the bloopers from the original episode with Lily and Marcus were saved--so those are thrown in at the end, with conversations about personality tests and other laughs.
