"Chapter III"

Troy Fairbanks, son of the Dean, is running for student body president. While Troy is at a donors party, Lionel texts him about the Dear Black People party. Seeing this, Troy has the campus police peacefully shut it down. Troy brings Lionel along to see his campaign trail, and Kurt (Pastiche's editor) asks Troy for help to get people to stop hating him, but is brushed off. After Troy spends the night with Professor Neika Hobbs, come morning he won the election. At his dorm, Troy receives blackmail from Kurt, forcing his hand. Meanwhile, star running back Thane Lockwood dies at a party.

"Chapter IV"

In flashbacks, Coco and Samantha had a starting friendship which broke apart from differing ideas on their social groups; Samantha joined BSU while Coco left and joined a sorority. When trying to get with Troy, Coco finds he was dating Samantha at the time. Today, Colandrea "Coco" Conners identifies the least with black identity compared to Samantha, and even defends the Dear Black People party. Confronting Samantha at her radio booth, Coco points out her academic leniency is because she looks more white than herself, whereas she would have been more punished. At the Pegasus Party, Coco gleefully locks out the Sorority leaders she once tried to impress.
