"Hello. Classics students, present your translation of Ovid. Literature students, write a brief paragraph reacting to the story you selected from A Thousand and One Nights." I expect all of you to have excellent work and of course it may be handwaved."

Nadia had chosen "the story of the husband and the parrot".

Her paragraph was filled with condemnation for a guy who would believe a parrot over his own wife, then kill the parrot, then kill his wife and his wife's lover, then grieve only the parrot.

It also has a comment that a parrot would make a terrible spy as it would be so easy to trick and would report information to anyone, being that it is a parrot.
