Ling'er is in the middle of a fight with another student when the teacher's wife comes running in and tells him that the teacher wants him to pay 20,000 renminbi in medical expenses and write a 10,000 word apology letter to the student's teacher in front of all the other students at the school. Worried that he's going to lose his job, Ling asks the teacher to let him write a 20,000 word reflection letter instead of the 10,000-word apology letter. The teacher refuses, saying that she doesn't have enough money to pay for a reflection letter and that she won't allow him to write one either. Ling begs the teacher not to ask him for money, but the teacher tells him to take off his dirty paws and slap the teacher. Unsure of what to do, the teacher slaps the teacher, who is horrified by the sight of the teacher being slapped by the guardian. He tells the teacher that he will beat the teacher up if he sees him again, and the teacher agrees to let the fight go on. The dean asks if they should get a doctor to examine the teacher
