at the library, miss honey and mrs. phelps relay the aftermath of the events. a few days after miss trunchbull ran away, miss honey's parents' will has been found; they left all their money and their house to her. miss trunchbull is never seen again and miss honey becomes the new headmistress of the school. matilda cannot use her powers again and miss honey is sad that a child who has helped others this way is stuck in an unloving home. the wormwoods arrive at the library in a panic, telling matilda that she must leave with them because they are fleeing to spain. the wealthy russians mr. wormwood was dealing with are the russian mafia, who are unhappy about being sold broken cars. miss honey asks if matilda can stay with her, but the mafia arrive before a decision can be made. sergei, the head of the mafia, is impressed and moved by matilda's intellect and respect, and he agrees not to harm the wormwoods providing he never has to deal with mr. wormwood again ('this little girl reprise'). mr. wormwood agrees to let matilda live with miss honey.
