Poppy : Whatever you get will be a *serious* improvement!
Matron : [to the girls] *Three* Sundays!
[turning to them]

Josie : Thanks a lot for that! You utter moron!
Drippy : What are you, mental?
Poppy : What? She was a grade-1 a-hole with a *severe* attitudinal problem!
Kate : [had enough with Poppy's nonsense] The bell's going in a minute. Just put your uniform on!
[Poppy scoffs. The bell suddenly rings]
