Master Snelgrove : This is truly despicable. Imagine, a cultured student acting like a chimpanzee!
Mrs. Dribb : He'll probably outgrow it. Oh Mr Snelgrove, he's just having a bit of fun. I'm sure you still remember what fun was?
Master Snelgrove : Fun! Besides, this Holmes boy is too precocious, too egotistical, for his own good. Hell never find that trophy!
Rathe : I'll wager a guinea he does!
Master Snelgrove : Done!
