Well played, Peter! You have curbed your daughter’s dangerous idea while planting in her a self-activating megalomania brake (essence of self-doubt; or, is being Queen of the Clowns a Good Thing?).
Meanwhile, Dill shows wisdom and experience in dealing with (or avoiding dealing with) his future wife….

And why would any of your classmates think you’re the Queen of Clowns, Alice, when you just brought it up?

Dill knows. Beni knows. One of those days that’s suffused with volatile Alice fumes. One spark and the whole enchilada will blow sky high.

“Funny you should mention that, Alice! Guess what? It’s National Clown Appreciation Day!”

Ok, I’ve seen Jeremy Clarkson drive a tiny car in to the elevator and offices of the BBC, but donuts around Miss Bliss? That would be rude.

It seems with Alice, it’s always one of those days.

I love how both the Otterloop parents know just when to go with they’re children’s fantasies.

way to play it dad! and Dill knows Alice’s moods so well he can alert everyone to not aggravate the “QUEEN of the Clowns”

Nobody wants to be Queen of the Clowns. Much too scary.

You’ve struck the match Alice; today, in and around school, you’re gonna run into a lot of stifled giggles!
