The parent wonders why the child is suddenly so loving and wants to help with 'some little jobs' around the house.

The parent is surprised that the child's face is clean and his clothes are without a crease. He even manages to save some of his luncheon money. 

Stanza 3 
The parent is bewildered because the child also behaves properly - does not drop his books or chriek childishly. 

Stanza 4 
The parent believes that the child is almost a stranger. So, the parent takes a closer look at the child. 

Stanza 5 
The parent finally finds out the reason for the child's good behaviour - he has brought home his school report card.
