NIGEL
The chalk! Look, the chalk!
MISS TRUNCHBULL
What?
CHILD
It's moving.
ERIC
It's moving! It's . . . It's writing something.
MISS TRUNCHBULL
What the devil? Who? Who?
CHILD
No one. No one's doing anything.
MISS TRUNCHBULL switches off the lasers. The chalk starts writing as the CHILDREN read the words from the board.
CHILD
Ag - a - tha. Agatha.
CHILD
This - is - Magnus.
MISS HONEY reaches up as though to touch the letters, then looks at MATILDA.
MISS TRUNCHBULL
He can't. He can't!
CHILD
Give - my - Jen - ny - back - her - house.
CHILD
Then - LEAVE!
MISS TRUNCHBULL
No. No, no, no, no, no.
CHILD and MISS TRUNCHBULL
Or - I - will - get - you ?
CHILD and MISS TRUNCHBULL
I like - YOU - GOT - ME!
CHILDREN and MISS HONEY
Run! Run! RUN! [etc.]
