• Taplow also tells Mr Frank that he is waiting for his result. Mr Frank is surprised to know that Mr Crocker-Harris follows the rule of the headmaster declaring the results on the last day of the term.

• Millie Crocker-Harris suggests Taplow to go away for a quarter of an hour and come back later as Mr Crocker-Harris is at the Bursar’s and may take quite some time to get back.
