Miss Scatcherd
- Mr. Brocklehurst: [Helen is about to be beaten by Ms. Scatcherd] I see you are mortifying this girl's flesh.
- Miss Scatcherd: Sir, she was not...
- Mr. Brocklehurst: It is your mission to render her contrite and self-denying. Continue.
- [Ms. Scatcherd begins beating Helen with a rod. Jane drops her chalkboard as a distraction]
- Mr. Brocklehurst: And you, girl.
- [He has Jane stand on her stool]
- Mr. Brocklehurst: This is the pedestal of infamy, and you will remain on it all day long. You will have neither food nor drink for you must learn how barren is the life of a sinner.
