“Etiquette? Why must I study etiquette, Bilbo?”
“Think, Frodo. First, you are the Master’s nephew and a cousin to the Thain himself, as well as being the ward and heir-presumptive to me as the Baggins. You’re even related by marriage to the Mayor! People expect that you will know how to behave properly in all circumstances, you understand. You will also need to hold your own against Lalia and the S-Bs, which will be much easier when you do it with impeccable behavior. Besides, if I don’t insist on you studying etiquette your Aunt Dora will never leave us be!”
