* UnreliableNarrator: When the MC questions him about the origins of the Alphas and [=DIKs=]' rivalry, he narrates some kind of epic tale (in verse!). In reality, he simply slept with Dawe's girlfriend and got beaten up by the Alphas.

Episode 8 reveals that they were Heather and Tania: if you tell Heather about him being "plus three", she confronts him about it, and [[TheCasanova he manages to spin it into a threesome]].

Derek's first reaction to these events does not concern the potential reasons for why Chad may have attacked Tremolo, or the potential consequences of his suspension; to even Tremolo's astonishment, it is "Was it hairy?"
