Miss Gonzales felt the need for a drink between classes and headed for the old kitchen, where she had been keeping a stash of her best tequila. Ted had found all the hiding spots in her office, so she'd taken to using the old kitchen, which didn't get used for much of anything anymore.

As she walked into the kitchen, she heard a small ruckus and looked around, wondering what cariad and suchaminx were up to this time. To her surprise, she saw the headmaster (who appeared sober, for a change, prompting Miss Gonzales to think she ought to mark the date on her calendar) slip a bag over someone's head, then tie the person's wrists.

Startled, Miss Gonzales dropped the crop she carried, (you just never know when you'll need one, and her previous boss, the dictator, had taught her that it was bad form to be without something to inflict pain on another person) started to leave the room, then promptly backed into a coat rack, sending it toppling to the floor. The headmaster's head whipped around and Miss Gonzlaes raised her hands as if to indicate that she had seen nothing and had never been there. The headmaster glowered and Miss Gonzales turned and ran, forgetting completely what she'd gone for.
