That's more or less like it. But ISTR that the injury was part of
Mona's little battle between her and the teacher, and that Mona had
been suspecing that the bad luck statue was part of the reason why the
eventual replacement (I don't seem to remember her being related) was
being treated badly.
BTW, I don't see any reviews on my proper notes for this week's TW...
