I hear an argument. It largely concerns me, although it occasionally branches out into a more general debate over whether the school is a haven for the imbecilic or the merely mediocre, whether there is any point in schools at all if this is the sort of fatuous shit in which they trade, and whether the old girl is going to rip the headmaster’s empty head off and use it to wipe her arse or whether she is merely going to rescue "that poor benighted fucking Ramanujan out there" and "never darken the doorway of this mean-minded educational clip joint ever again."
