It never is your fault, is it, Paula?

But I haven't done anything.

You haven't done anything.

No, miss.

No, miss.

Well, that's not what I've heard.

Well, what have you heard, miss?

What have I heard?

Did I not give you the job of looking after our new exchange student, Nina?

Yes.

Yes.

And how's that going, then?

Very well, miss.

Very well.

I don't think so.

I've just had a phone call from her parents, which she rang last night, asking for more money.

Now, they sent her here with £500, apparently.

So why, after three weeks, is she ringing up home asking for more money?

I don't know, miss.

You don't know?

I don't spend her money.

Really?

You don't spend her money.

So you haven't borrowed any money off of Nina since she's arrived.

I've borrowed some, miss, but I would take it.

And have you paid it back?

No.

And £300 seems an awful lot of money to borrow off of somebody at one time, doesn't it?

What on earth do you need £300 for?

I didn't borrow £300.

No, it's more than £300.

I am sick of your behaviour.

I was fed up with it last term, and I'm not going to put up with it this term.
