At his funeral, Kathryn gives a speech to the school about how she had tried to get Sebastian to mend his ways and become a model student like herself. Halfway through her speech, students start walking out. Cecile is distributing copies of Sebastian’s journal to all the students. The journal shows all of Sebastian’s inner thoughts; his conquests, his description of the bet, and a page on Kathryn, which finally illustrates her manipulative and deceitful ways, including the fact that she hides a vial of cocaine in a crucifix she wears round her neck. The headmaster takes Kathryn’s crucifix and opens it, emptying the cocaine. Kathryn’s spotless reputation is destroyed, and people finally see her for the troubled, callous, mastermind that she is.
In the final shot, Annette drives away in Sebastian’s Jaguar, putting his sunglasses on, with his journal by her side.
