"We have no memory of these dates..."
"For you, it was a date on Friday night. For me, it was Tuesday."
"We... Ah..." Dang it, I couldn't think of third movie to paraphrase. Fellowship of The Ring and Street Fighter, by the way.
High Schools in the USA are four years, with second years being sophomores, and third years being juniors (maybe not everywhere in the country, but where I was, anyway). I had Camdin use those words at first, but panel space can be cruel sometimes, so I changed it to the shorter second and third years.
Put another way, their date(s) was / were a couple years ago.
