This repeater is an active figure in the college, and he occasionally holds multiple identities such as president of the club, initiator of campus sports, and spiritual godfather of the basketball club. Taj (Kal Penn), an exchange student from India, envies the life of American students, so he joins Wilder to be his assistant.

Gwen's report makes Wilder famous, and the relationship between the two becomes closer, which arouses the anger of Gwen's boyfriend, who plans to retaliate against Wilder...
