The following morning, Clyde visits Sarah Jane to show her his completed comic book. She is full of praise — until Clyde says his name. Her attitude changes in a second. She is furious at Clyde for his teasing of Luke and promptly throws him out of her house. Astonished, Clyde crosses the road to tell Rani what happened — but then Haresh says Clyde’s name. His daughter and he become enraged. Rani spitefully tells Clyde she hates him and Haresh expels the bewildered boy from school.

Upset and confused to hear such venom from people he considers his friends, Clyde quickly walks away. Back at No. 13, Sarah Jane tears up all the pictures drawn by Clyde that she can find. Mr Smith voices his concern at her inexplicable anger. She calms down as Sky enters the attic. With Sky about to attend her first day at school, Sarah Jane decides to return to the museum to write an article on the totem and the fish storm. Sky mentions Clyde — and Sarah Jane's attitude changes once more. She furiously bans her daughter from ever mentioning Clyde again. Sky is unaffected. Mr Smith and she are confused at Sarah Jane's sudden hatred of Clyde. They ask her what he did that has upset her so much, but she will not discuss the subject and orders Mr Smith to alert her if he sets foot on Bannerman Road again.
