This installment of the Netflix program streamed May 19 and was the 4th episode of season 3. For this segment, Kimmy (Kemper) is now working for TaskRabbit performing odd jobs for random people. While running an erand to Columbia University, she shows off her rowing skills to some girls in the dorm. Her physical skills actually get her an athletic scholarship to the prestigious school.
