"A letter for me?" she asked. Now that was odd. Who would write her a letter? Bunny sent them to her home. "Odd."

Okay, now THAT look was scary, but also... awesome. Clearly Tetrus Santana took the same stance on tardiness as she did; you had better have a coroners note if you intended to be late or absent.
