Alaska's memorial prank has a few tweaks in the series. The gang hires a legit stripper to Magic Mike it in front of the school in the YA novel, but they recruit their local liquor store cashier in the Hulu version. The strip song's different as well: Prince's "Gett Off" in the John Green book and Kelis's "Milkshake" in the show. The guys don't strip in book, but we have to admit that it makes for an, ahem, cinematic moment.
