Bullyville Chapter 6 Summary

  • Bart is feeling increasingly paranoid at school. What is Tyro plotting?
  • Turns out he's right to worry, too, since Tyro and some of his goons attack Bart and stuff him in his locker.
  • Bart is reminded of an old childhood toy, a jack in the box that broke. He's just like that jack in the box, except he's a kid in a locker.
  • Bart bangs on the inside of his locker for a long time before anyone comes to rescue him.
  • Bart tells Dr. Bratton that he has no idea what happened. Bart's fine except for a few bruises (well, and his bruised pride).
  • Somehow Bart convinces Dr. Bratton to not call his mother. Impressive.
  • Dr. Bratton gives the school a special Thanksgiving speech about bullying at Bullywell. We mean Baileywell. Dr. Bratton seems really bummed about it; evidently dude's completely unfamiliar with the school's reputation.
  • His speech also comes with a warning: He and the staff are on high alert for bullies, and they will have zero tolerance.
