The Governess wakes up to find the dog outside her door. She's not sure what's going on, but she's pretty sure it's the Governess's dog who's been hanging out with the other students. The dog's name is Shmoop, and he's a toy-dog, so he can't really be a real threat. He's cute, but he'll have to poop on the floor before class starts, so the dog is going to have to go outside. Shmoops, Shmup. The teacher is supposed to be in the classroom, but the dog doesn't have good eyesight, so they have to wait outside until the clock strikes eight in the morning.
