"How do you like your days at school, guys?" Edwin smiled to them.

"What do you think, you cold, heartless boy?!" Estelle snapped.

Edwin backed up slightly from her, a little worried of her wrath. "Not so great, huh?" he continued to mock them. "I told you things wouldn't be so lovely for you here!"

"Edwin, please leave us alone..." Eloise was really not in the mood for him today.

Nanny came which made Edwin turn into the goody two shoes boy that many adults believed him to be, much to the kids' annoyance.

"If only there was a way for us to show all of the adults who Edwin really is." Estelle said to her twin brother, older brother, and cousin.

"You're telling me..." Akito lowly mumbled back to her.

"I was just telling Eloise and her cousins what wonderful additions they are to Hawthorne," Edwin kissed up to Nanny. "And how happy I am that they're in my class!"

"Is that so?" Nanny even seemed to see right through that. "Eloise has given me the impression that you aren't kind at all to her or her cousins here."

"Oh, not true, not true at all," Edwin covered up before taking his leave. "Well, gotta run! See you tomorrow, guys..."

"He's totally lying." Akito said.

"I'm fairly certain he is..." Nanny whispered to them.

"But how can we prove to everyone about who he truly is?" Estelle asked.

"Don't worry about him, let's just go back..." Eloise sighed.

"That boy always rubs me the wrong way..." Nanny said to the kids, showing she was on their side. "I swear, his parents just spoil him rotten!"

"Well, they should stop." Vincent said.

They went back to the hotel, and the staff welcomed them with warm and open arms, happy to see them, but the kids were still a bit unhappy which made the staff unhappy.

"Oh, poor kids..." Maxine cooed.

"They haven't been themselves since they started going to that school." Bill said.

"Don't tell nobody, but I don't like it." Charlie whispered after the kids went into the elevator with Nanny.

"Neither do I..." Maxine whispered back.

"But it seems that Mr. Salamone seems to be liking it; guess he just doesn't like any fun to happen in the Plaza." Charlie whispered back.

"Of course, he's nuts!" Maxine grew vocal then with a hysterical laugh and then broke down into tears. "Oh, please just fire me..."

"Don't worry, Maxine; I'm sure that Akito, Estelle, Vincent, and Eloise will be back to their normal selves." Charlie assured her.

"That little girl was the only motivation I had to come to work everyday..." Maxine whimpered.

Charlie held her and they had to rush back to their posts as their boss was coming into the lobby then.

Eloise marked another day off the calendar and sighed a little. "Well, at least tomorrow's Friday..." she said to them. "Then we get the weekend."

"Yeah and then we are free from school until Monday." Akito said.

"See?" Eloise smiled a little. "I-I knew we could do this... Um... Nanny?"'

Nanny looked to her with a smile.

"Do you know what Philip's up to?" Eloise asked.

"I frankly don't know, dear, do you miss him?" Nanny asked.

Eloise frowned and folded her arms. "N-No... I love school!"

"Eloise, please tell Nanny the truth we can tell that you miss Philip." Estelle encouraged her cousin.

"We're fine..." Eloise insisted.

"Eloise, you clearly don't like school, why are you still doing this?" Vincent frowned.

"Because we can't let Bobby or Edwin push us around like this," Eloise said to her cousins. "I'm still going through with it... I'm going to give our teacher a piece of my mind!"

"I wonder if Aunt Darla was like this as a child?" Vincent whispered to himself.

"Eloise, we're with you; we're going to give that teacher a piece of our minds too." The twins told her in unison.

"I'll only try..." Vincent spoke up.

"Thanks, guys, I'm really sorry to make you do this..." Eloise felt bad for dragging them to school with her like this.

"It's okay, Eloise; we're glad to do this with you, if you're happy, we're happy." Akito said.

"I know we can do this..." Eloise insisted, even if she didn't sound as strong about going to school as she used to.

They all then shared a hug.

Nanny sighed, she looked to a childhood picture of Darla before she became a famed Hollywood starlet. "She has your spirit, Darlene..." she whispered. "I just wish you were here more often to see it for yourself."

"Anyway, let's now relax." Vincent said.

"At least we don't have homework this time." Eloise said, taking a seat at her desk while they sat on her bed.

"Yeah, that's a good thing." Estelle said.

Weenie and Skipperdy came to Eloise and cuddled against her while Larvitar and Vulpix came to Akito and Vincent and cuddled against them. Estelle watched them and just cradled her Teddyursa egg and hummed a sweet melody to it, gently rocking it back and forth in her arms.

The next day, they went to school as usual, Jenny would always make sure to see them first so she could cheer them up if they felt unhappy about what might have been happening lately. However, as she came to see them, Mandy and Robert even came to see them.

"Today, we give that teacher a piece of our minds and I don't care if we get punished; we have had enough of how this school has been treating us." Estelle said.

"Right!" Akito, Vincent, and Eloise firmly nodded in agreement.

"Um, hey, guys." Mandy spoke up.

The cousins then looked to their friends and smiled to them.

"Y-You okay?" Robert added, very shyly and nervously.

"Yeah, we're okay." All four of them replied.

"You're lucky to get an A minus on your paper, Eloise," Mandy told the blonde girl. "When I had to write a paper, I was so nervous that I got the hiccups and I only got a C."

"Yowch..." Eloise winced. "And I thought Prunella had problems!"

"Yikes, well, we're going to give that teacher a piece of our minds." Akito said.

Mandy, Robert, and Jenny looked very fearful and worried about that idea, but they gave small smiles to their friends.

"Well, we better get to class then." Eloise suggested.

"D-Do we have to?" Robert sounded more fearful of the teacher than the others did.

"Yes, we do." Estelle said.

"Are you okay?" Akito asked the trembling boy.

"Robert has to give an oral report today." Mandy explained.

"Yeah..." Robert rubbed his arm. "I-I worked really hard on it, but I just get so nervous when I have to talk in front of a lot of people and doing it in front of Hedwig makes it ten times worse!"

"Oh, Robert, you're charming and delightful," Eloise gave him a confident smile. "Just try to focus on us and everything will be fine."

"Yeah and just forget about all of the negative things all of the teachers say along with the rest of the students that have been nothing but mean and cruel." Estelle said.

Robert sighed a little shakily. They all then rushed to class and did what they did every morning.
