You wouldn’t believe what we saw yesterday on the train tour! He cut in: You wouldn’t believe what we saw yesterday at Lord Bithersby. Liesl the Weasel got her hair chopped! Now she looks like a burned match — pale and skinny, with just a bit of black at the top. You fooled her with that phony e-mail message, Di. She’s bragging to everyone that Talbot’s gonna take her out for a Belgian fries lunch date! HA HA HA. I didn’t view the outcome of my prank quite so merrily as Pantelli. I foresaw a long — make that Rip Van Winkle’s lifetime-long — session in the principal’s office. How could Liesl have fallen for that phony e-mail? Stupidity? No. Vanity, I decided. Only a girl as stuck-up and conceited as Liesl Dubuque would believe a twelve-year-old boy would write her such a mushy message. I hope you didn’t tell her anything, I typed. Me? No way! Your secret is safe with yours truly. Liesl will never weasel out of me that you’re the culprit. Phew, I wrote. I wished, though, that Pantelli wouldn’t use the word “culprit.”
