We're very proud of this class, and we feel that they're going to do a great job for their communities.

They're glad they're having a class, but they didn't quite know whether they would be up to par.

It seems like (Allen) wasn't feeling safe enough in the class, so he had to record it.

Starling knew what the malicious Dr. Lecter would say, and it was true: she was afraid there was something tacky that Senator Martin saw in her, something cheap, something thief-like that Senator Martin reacted to. That Vanderbilt bitch.
Dr. Lecter would relish pointing out that class resentment, the buried anger that comes with mother's milk, was a factor too. Starling gave away nothing to any Martin in education, intelligence, drive, and certainly physical appearance, but still it was there and she knew it.

It almost makes the class more interesting to debate about politics. But you have to be careful what you say.

In the U.K., there is a sort of obsession with class.
