For some reason, this scene always reminds me of a scene from Terry Pratchett’s Thief in Time, where the headmistress enters Susan’s classroom having heard something strange going on only to see the children sitting around Susan like “supplicants around some sort of altar of knowledge “politely waiting for her to go away.
