I don't quite understand yet what it's all about, Marjorie, she said kindly;
gpt
She's expelled me!
human
That's bad. Aren't there any extenuating circumstances?

Such an attitude is only too catching. Best to check it before it spreads further.

From my personal experience of her I could not have believed her capable of unladylike conduct. She has always seemed to me very unsophisticated and childish--certainly not 'fast'. Can there possibly be any explanation of the matter?
gpt
I fear not--the case seems only too plain, sighed Mrs. Morrison.

human
I have a feeling that the matter may possibly admit of being cleared up. It's worth trying.
