He must tell Dr Grief and other teachers about his supposedly bad behavior and why he’s at the school in the first place. MI6 doesn’t want the teachers knowing about his cover in case they’re implicated in the murders. Meanwhile, Alex must also make friends so that he can learn more about the boys and what’s going on at the school. The point is to identify any reason why fathers of these schoolboys are targeted.
