==Profile==
When Ranjeet was 12 and Surinder was 10, their fathers agreed that their children would be betrothed to each other. Ranjeet has second thoughts when he sees that Surinder is not nearly as shapely and beautiful as she was when they were younger, so he decides to escape the marriage by committing suicide. He changes his mind after Jeremy Brown intervenes, but lies that his teacher wants to marry Surinder instead. Mr. Brown, however, writes a letter to Surinder's parents explaining why he can't marry their daughter, which enrages Surinder's father. Seeing this rejection of his daughter as a disgrace to her, he comes to Mr. Brown's classroom the day he receives the letter and chases him out of the room with a kirpan.
