The students are too stubborn, the narrator says, and there is a need for evidence. He tells the students that it is better to act on the situation than to wait for something to happen. He asks the students why they are not going home after class. He wants to know why they have tied up the student, why they haven't gone home after school, and why they aren't letting the student go home after the trial is over.

The two of them will be spared the death penalty, he says. He adds that he has put in a lot of effort
