�No, Obi, you square this, you don�t multiply it by two.�

�No, it�s a multiplication, not an exponential.�

�Exponent.�

�Multiply!�

�Exponent!�

A dry voice broke into the argument between Obi-Wan and Kat�ri, his current girlfriend. �It doesn�t look to me like you�re studying,� Qui-Gon remarked.

Kat�ri looked up at the Jedi Master in frustration. �Master Jinn, in Trelik�s Law, the mass is squared, isn�t it?�

�Yes, it is.�

�See, Obi, I told you so,� she remarked smugly.

The two of them were studying � or pretending to � for their upcoming physics test. It wasn�t going well.

�No, see, you carry the four to this side of the equation,� Obi-Wan said, reaching for the snack bowl. He crunched on the vegetable, wincing slightly as he bit his tongue in the process. �Ow.�

Kat�ri rolled her eyes unsympathetically.

He glared at her. �Some Jedi you�ll make with all that compassion.�

She stuck her tongue out.

Qui-Gon glanced up from his reading. He was on the settee going over some documents the Chancellor had sent him.

�Obi-Wan, Kat�ri, I think the two of you might studying more productively if you studied alone.�

�No!� they both cried in unison.

�But, Master,� Obi-Wan pleaded. �Studying alone is boring.�

�Oh, the tragedy,� Qui-Gon said melodramatically. �Besides,� he continued. �You�re hardly getting anything accomplished.�

�We�ve been studying for three hours!� Obi-Wan protested.

�No, you�ve been flirting, arguing, and snacking for three hours. There�s a difference.�

�I hate finals,� Obi-Wan growled softly.

�Me too,� whispered Kat�ri.

/Me three/ thought Qui-Gon
