He makes a terrible mess and Lucy and Arthur think a bad fairy has come ...Tumtum and Nutmeg have to take the General under house arrest to stop his bad behaviour, but the General plots his escape. Events spiral and the General is taken by Arthur and Lucy and imprisoned in theirschool! General Marchmouses's reputation as an officer and a gentlemouse is about to change.
