Public School Arc Episodes
1. His Butler, at School
Ciel begins attending England’s prestigious Weston College. This insular school values tradition, is bound by strict discipline, and is ruled by the prefects of its four boarding houses, collectively known as "P4".
2. His Butler, In Disguise
Ciel builds his reputation within the school in order to get close to the P4. His success grants him the opportunity to participate in an exclusive gathering reserved only for prefects and their drudges. However, this meeting doesn't go as expected.
3. His Butler, Plotting
Ciel decides to pay back Maurice Cole for his underhanded trick. Since Maurice lives in a different boarding house, he arranges a special exemption for an acquaintance to be admitted to Weston so that he can monitor Maurice.
4. His Butler, Colluding
Ciel wins the P4's trust, but he still can't find a chance to get close to the Head Master. And so he brings up the subject of Derrick Arden with the P4 and their drudges. When he does, the expressions on the prefects' faces change...
5. His Butler, Gaining Admittance
Ciel hears some promising information: the ever-busy Head Master will be attending Weston's traditional cricket tournament, and evidently the student who exhibits the most sportsmanlike behaviour will be invited to the Head Master's "midnight tea party."

Ciel is chosen to play cricket, but the boys of Sapphire Owl House are the perennial wooden spooners. They've had just one victory in the history of the tournament. Ciel resolves to wrest another victory for his House—without any miracles.
