[As punishment for supposedly eating the Trunchbull's chocolate cake, Bruce Bogtrotter has been forced to eat an entire cake in front of the whole student body]

The Trunchbull:
This boy, Bruce Bogtrotter, is none other than a vicious sneak thief. You're a disgusting criminal, aren't you?

Bruce:
I don't know what you're talking about.

The Trunchbull:
Cake. Chocolate cake. You slithered like a serpent into the school kitchen and ate MY PERSONAL SNACK! [whips riding crop onto table] Do you deny it? [hissing] Confess!

Bruce:
Well, it's hard for me to remember a specific cake...

The Trunchbull:
This one... was mine. And it was the most scrumptious cake in the entire world.

Bruce:
My mom's is better.

[the other students gasp]

The Trunchbull:
It is, is it? How can you be sure unless you have another piece? [grabs him by the shoulder and propels him to a chair] Sit down, Bog. [takes a slice of chocolate cake and shows it to Bruce] Here we go. Smells chocolatey, eh? [hands him the slice of cake] Now... EAT IT. [stabs the knife on the table]

Bruce:
[looks at the Trunchbull] I don't want any. Thank you.

The Trunchbull:
[yells in Bruce's face] EAT IT!!!
