Anne-Jeanne’s class enter in the classroom after finishing their lunch.
Anne-Jeanne clears her throat. ‘School, in addition to its educational mission, must be a place of equality and justice. If Lila feels cheated for not being able to participate in the last elections, then we would all grow by acceding to her request. Which is why, even though school is nearly over, I propose that we take a new vote. I'm inviting those who wish to run to come to the board.’
Marinette scowls at Anne-Jeanne’s decision as she glares at Lila who walks down the classroom aisle, making her way to the front.

Lila smiles. ‘My dear classmates, I am convinced that even the worst person can change if you reach out to them. And to prove it to you...’ she motions to Chloe. ‘Chloe, will you be my deputy?’

The whole class gasp collectively. Chloe, being forced to follow along, stands up from her seat and walks to Lila's side, with a fake smile on her face.
‘Wow... is Chloe actually going to be a mere deputy?’ Nino says.

‘That is SO not Chloe!’ Nathaniel remarks.
‘Does this mean it's already working?’ Baljeet asks.
Mylene smiles at Rose. ‘Can Lila actually get her to change?’ she asked as Rose nodded.
Marinette slams her fists on her table. ‘This is so crazy! It's all lies!’
