[Ben talks to Professor Gilpin about getting the Robinson Scholarship]
Bob Phillips:
The Robinson Scholarship is comprehensive, as you know. It's a free ride. And free rides don't come easy.
Ben Campbell:
Absolutely.
Bob Phillips:
We have 76 applicants, this year. Only one of them will get the Scholarship. And most of whom have resumes just as impressive as you.
Ben Campbell:
Right. Uh, Professor Phillips? Some kids grow up wanting to play for the Red Sox. You know, some grow up wanting to be, I don't know, a fireman. I grew up... Well, really, I just wanted to come here to Harvard Med. And now that I've gotten accepted, it seems to only come down to the money. Which I don't really have. So, what I'm trying to say is that I really, really need this scholarship.
Bob Phillips:
Did you rehearse that?
Ben Campbell:
Yeah. Like, 14 times in front of the mirror.
Bob Phillips:
Unfortunately, desire doesn't figure into this much. The Robinson is going to go to someone who... Dazzles. Somebody who just jumps off the page.
