Hardwicke House

The South African ambassador Van der Git and his wife intend to enroll their son at Hardwicke House, unaware of the chaos within.

As the students and teachers return for a new term, they learn that Mr Fowl has been put in charge of distributing pens and paper from stock. Slasher instructs his new gang to get his hands on these supplies.

A selection of teachers are being interviewed for Head of Curriculum. Fowl sets about sabotaging his opponents, Ms Crabbe and Moose.

Parents arrive for the annual Prizegiving. Outside, Slasher and his gang set to work stripping all of the parked cars.

On the day commencing exams, two ex-students that Mr Fowl sent to Borstal come to pay a visit.

Philpott is desperate to pass Inspection, so Flashman lends a helping hand. Fowl, on the other hand, manages to foul it up with the Inspector almost immediately.

The students and faculty are putting on a play based on the Last Supper. Fowl insists on playing Jesus, while Moose has decided to play Samson and Savage refuses to wear period dress.
