:41:02
I do not believe I have
ever fully appreciated...

:41:05
the taxing load of trivia...
:41:07
with which a headmistress
must concern herself.

:41:11
I must concern myself, Miss Brodie,
with this school's board of governors.

:41:15
I flatter myself that I am not
unknown to the board...

:41:19
having been a member
of the staff of Marcia Blaine...

:41:21
six years prior
to your engagement, Miss Mackay.

:41:25
I feel quite safe in saying...
:41:28
that no member of the board
has ever shown anything...

:41:30
but appreciation and approval
of my teaching methods.

:41:34
Oh! Oh, Miss Mackay...
:41:37
I use the woods of Cramond
for lessons in botany...

:41:42
the rocks of the shore to investigate
the mysteries of geology.

:41:48
It should be patently clear
that my expeditions to Cramond...

:41:52
are expeditions for enrichment.
:41:55
Enrichment for my girls...
and for Marcia Blaine.

:42:06
Well.
Thank you, Miss Brodie.

:42:10
I feel sure you and I have come
to understand each other better.

:42:13
I'm always
at your command, Miss Mackay.

:42:15
I am delighted
to hear it.

:42:17
Good day, Miss Brodie.
:42:20
Oh, chrysanthemums.
:42:24
Such serviceable flowers.
Mmm.

:42:33
May I have a word with you,
Miss Gaunt?

:42:42
Miss Gaunt, you are, of course,
aware of the problem...

:42:46
when a teacher has tenure
and the loyalty of her pupils.

:42:51
It's not going to
be easy, Miss Gaunt.

:42:53
However, no doubt,
in due time...

:42:56
some advantage will
be vouchsafed us.

:42:58
In the meanwhile, I would deem it
a sincere service to the school...
