He contended that it was the principal of the thing that mattered and went on to rebut, but could not refute, Alice's claim that fairies were the irresponsible parties and were in fact quite infamous for their irresponsible parties. Alice countered that the rout taken by cafeteria staff to route the beast was the root of the problem, and that it was common knowledge that the proscribed method for dealing with unruly ungulates was toast and marmalade on a poll.
