We're aware that we have a certain reputation.

However, in this case, we also have an iron-clad alibi. We were serving detention for something else.

Mr Milland was already disagreeable this morning. Now he's grumbling about portrait restorations into the bargain.

I'd steer well clear if I were you two.
