The Governess tells Lockwood that she can't keep up with all of his homework assignments and that she'll have to go back to class tomorrow. Lockwood tells her that he's not doing his homework very well and that he doesn't want to be a failure. He says he'll try harder tomorrow, but that he won't be able to do so until he graduates. Lockwood says that he wants to go to a school like the Governess's so that he can work for the same company later on. He's worried that Lockwood's father will be jealous of him
