I Helped a Hungry Student,They Accused Me of Seducing Him

While on an investigation assignment at a school, a woman buys a full meal for a boy who has only a cup of free broth. A female teacher, Delia Lawrence, charges over, slaps her, and accuses her of seducing her son, Piers James, an Ivy League candidate. Dragged to the principal's office, she is threatened with expulsion by Principal William Whitney. She tells him to call her parent, and when he does, the voice on the line warns that no one is to lay a finger on her until he arrives.

Delia pushes for a school-wide assembly so the woman will apologize before every student. On the field, in front of more than two thousand students, Delia and William repeat the accusation, and Delia threatens to write "homewrecker" across her face with a marker. The woman kicks her down and holds up credentials reading City Board of Education, Deputy Director — Judy Fox.

William and Delia dismiss the badge as a fake, and the head of Academic Affairs finds no student by that name on the roster. Delia declares her a delinquent who snuck in from off campus, her voice climbing higher with every word.
