The episode starts where we left off: Ruby and Jaune, standing by the pond in the Academy Gardens. After a few humorous suggestions from both as to what they should do next, Glynda appears, scolds them gently for missing the start of the Beginning of Term Dinner and leads them into the Great Hall.

There follows a nice long beauty sequence for the animators to work with: Ruby's first sight of the Great Hall with its murals, tapestries and statues of Hunters and Huntresses of years gone by. Everyone is sitting at dining tables. She sees Weiss and Blake, both sitting at the end of rows and looking very isolated (we might also see the rest of team JUAN in various places). Finally, she sees Yang waving - she's saved her a seat. Lacking anywhere else to go, Jaune sits with her, making Yang tease Ruby gently.

Professor Ozpin stands up, makes a few announcements and then explains that Freshmen stay in four-person dorms. The occupants of the Dorms will live together, work together and fight together. They are teams, grouped together based on an analysis of their abilities and personalities; they will be working together for their entire time at Beacon. They are responsible for each other and should consider each-other their family to care for and look out for. They'll find their room assignments on the notice board outside.

Cut to Ruby and Yang arriving at their dorm room assignment. The dorm room door has the legend 'R.W.B.Y.' on the outside. Yang (mistress of the obvious) announces that 'R' is 'Ruby' and 'Y' is 'Yang'. "I wonder who 'W' and 'B' are?" she asks

They step in, going out-of-shot as they pass through the door and both say: "Oh NO!" Inside, they are standing, staring at Weiss and Blake, who are standing as far apart as possible and staring at each other in horror.

Ruby nervously rubs the back of her head. "Well! Looks like we're on the same team! Um... Hi, I'm Ruby?"

Fade to black then we hear Weiss, in a fast, panicked tone of voice, saying: "Okay, now I'll stay on my side of the room if you stay on yours.  My side, your side; my side, your side.  Got that?"

Roll end credits (full-length version).
