* The lunchroom scene, where Penny relentlessly tries to intimidate Sherman into admitting to "being a dog", throwing his food across the floor and telling him to fetch, and, when it gets to the point of a full-on fight, telling him to beg. Heartbreaking to watch, and even worse once it becomes clear that the staff (mainly Ms. Grunion) unreasonably blame Sherman (and, by extension, Peabody). Even the Principal, who at least seemed to understand that these things happen sometimes, gets intimidated by Ms. Grunion into informing Peabody and starting off the plot. The fact that the principal is bullied into it a little sort of makes it worse though.

Heartbreaking to watch, and even worse once it becomes clear that the staff (mainly Ms. Grunion) unreasonably blame Sherman (and, by extension, Peabody). Even the Principal, who at least seemed was willing to understand that these things happen sometimes, acknowledge Penny as not a blameless victim, gets intimidated by Ms. Grunion into informing Peabody and starting off the plot.
