Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Hard Candy (2005)?

The Yale secret society Skull & Bones uses the number 322 as an identifier on many of its symbols. - The characters are seen celebrating at a pizza parlor they refer to as "Morys," drinking from a big golden cup. Morys is an actual place, and the tradition with the song and the big golden cup is accurate; however, its a formal restaurant, not a pizza parlor, and actual Morys cups are traditionally silver. - The new Skulls are sent to raid "Snake & Skeleton." There is a Yale secret society called "Book & Snake." - Some campus shots seem to purposefully mimic Yale buildings. Theres a tower that looks a lot like Harkness Tower, and the dining hall looks like the one in Saybrook College.
