Will gets amazed at his invention, but then noticed a bottle,later revealed to be Dr. Santiago'S brainwashing serum. He picks it up and asks what it is. But Dr. Santiago grabs it from his hand and says he should go to lunch.

During lunch, Jacob and Susanna ask Will what Dr. Santiago is up to. He told them that he is not doing anything special.Then a student, who is actually one of Dr. Santiago's minions, tells the trio that Dumb And Dumber is being shown in D. Santiago's room. Will gets excited and walks to the room. However, it was later revealed to be a trick and gets captured by the minions and tied up.

Later on, he heard footsteps and thinks it is Dr. Santiago. So he pretends to be dead. It turns out it was just Jacob and Susanna who went looking for him. Susanna thinks he actually died, but Jacob doubts it. Susanna starts to grieve over his supposed death and confesses her love for him. Will then stops playing dead after he heard the confession. After he surprises Jacob and Susanna, he explained that he played dead because he thought they were Dr. Santiago. After getting untied, they all learn that Dr. Santiago is brainwashing the other Students with his serum.
