Ottilia Farrell looked straight at Dennis, who was sitting opposite her with an expectant smile, and said with a hint of helplessness:
"Dennis, I don't think you need any advice or guidance on college admissions right now."
"Please, Miss Farrell, I've always wanted to go to college, and I want to become a rock star, so I want to know which school could..." Dennis said undaunted, under Ottilia's direct gaze.
Before he could finish, Pam stuck her head out from the corridor outside: "Dennis, we agreed that in ten minutes it'd be my turn to ask Miss Farrell for advice on college admissions. Teacher, which university do you think I should attend to become a train driver... "
"Shut up, Pam! Don't ruin my quest for knowledge! Don't make me hate you a second time!" Dennis said without turning his head, then continued to look at Ottilia Farrell with a serious, studious expression.
