it's like the montage
Just as I was the only one in the Children of Men (2006) audience to laugh/scoff at Clive Owen uttering "Jesus Christ" when he saw that the "fugee" he is meant to help is actually miraculously pregnant--and in a barn no less; I was also the only one to laugh when Matt Damon flirted with Vera Farmiga in The Departed (2006). They meet in the elevator of his building, and, being a psychiatrist to the police, she recognizes that he is elite because of the floor he gets off. He wants to further impress her, stating that he goes to law school, but that, hey, Harvard Law School ain't open at night so he's gotta make do with a lesser school. As anyone would know, what he means is that he's actually the night janitor at MIT in addition to being a detective in the state police. And a mathematics genius. This logic works out since we never see him study or even attend classes. He's too busy, entrenched in the Irish mafia.
