Assigned Reading:

The boys discover Xanthippus bound and gagged in his ransacked room; only math books and pictures are missing. He sends them on break and reveals he never meant to expel Rufus. On the way to tell Rufus, they see “Caius is a dumbbell” painted on Minerva’s temple. Claudia says Caius told their father that Rufus did it and plans to report him. The boys warn Rufus, who, found in bed with wet hair, denies any knowledge of the graffiti.
