Summary
At the end of the school day, Martha and Becky Blackbell leave Anya Forger at the school bus station, but as Anya waits for the school bus, someone announces that the bus driver got sick and the next service would be late, so Anya decides to stay and wait. Henry Henderson sees her alone and asks her to help him carry some stuff. Anya is hesitant but agrees when he offers her some candies. As they walk back to the school, Henderson asks Anya if she’s having fun at school and she says it’s okay, but quickly asks him if she’ll get a Tonitrus for not having fun. Henderson tells her she won’t, and that she can rely on him if she’s having problems.

Anya tells him she’s completely fine, which shocks Henderson since he knows Anya has received 2 Tonitrus Bolts and she doesn’t feel any sadness or worry at all. As Anya reads his mind, she too is shocked since she completely forgot she received two. Worried that she won't get her sweets, Anya tells him she’s a little bit worried about the Tonitrus, calming Henderson. Anya tells him she now carries many handkerchiefs since her last Tonitrus was for not having one.

Henderson explains that the true issue is one's attitude toward preparedness and personal grooming, citing them as building blocks for elegance. Donna Schlag's harshness is her way of keeping students from getting sloppy as they grow comfortable with school. Anya responds in confusion, which Henderson attributes to her youth. Anya tries to impress him by saying she understands while spitting out a nonsensical response, shocking Henderson even more as he realized Anya really didn’t understand a single word he said. Henderson tells her she must keep her discipline all the time, and Anya asks if she’ll get a Stella being disciplined. Henderson understands that Anya wants to be an Imperial Scholar, and asks why she wants to be one. Anya thinks of Loid's mission but ends up saying that the Stella look cool. Henderson believes Anya to be superficial and reminds her that in their interview she said she wanted to be like the headmaster. As Anya doesn’t remember she said it, she repeats she only cares about getting all the Stars quickly.

Henderson angrily tells her she shouldn’t disrespect the Imperial Scholars and the Stella that way, since most of the students who got to be Imperials spilled blood and sweat to become great people and achieve big things. He takes her to the hall of fame of the most outstanding students from Eden. Anya realizes that she must, work hard one day at a time, like with Loid's mission, and asks Henderson if he thinks she can become an Imperial Scholar. He says that he can’t respond to that, as every student must decide that for themselves and that there is no need to rush.

They arrive at Henderson’s office, and as promised, Henderson gives Anya some sweets. He asks Anya if she would like to review some problems she got wrong in a quiz, but she leaves once she finishes eating. After this, Henderson thinks to himself that teaching kids is difficult. Anya arrives home and greets Loid, Yor and Bond before noticing her parents are worn out. Reading their minds, she realizes how hard they work. With newfound resolve, Anya asks Loid Forger to study with her, but he jumps to the conclusion she got another Tonitrus and collapses with Yor Forger catching him.
