1. When she walked in gripping a riding crop and wearing an animal fang belt buckle.
2. And when the first words Matilda heard her say were:
3. When she cornered poor, adorable Amanda Thripp.


GIRL, RUN.
4. And asked her a rhetorical question that immediately made you break into a cold sweat.


RUNRUNRUNRUN
5. AMANDA, WHAT ARE YOU DOING???


6. And THREW a girl into the AIR by her pigtails.
7. LITERALLY, WHAT.
8. And kept throwing kids out of windows whenever she damn well felt like it.
9. Or, you know, just on the ground.
10. OR JUST LED THEM TO THE CHOKEY.
11. And that's after she tossed a few iron balls around.
12. And OH YEAH, just hurled a few really sharp javelins for fun.
13. There was that time her voice was literally too loud to be contained in the loud speaker.
14. Right before she sat Bruce Bogtrotter down and made him eat a cake with "sweat, blood, and tears."
