Pros

Cons

  • Pro claim 1

    He told Mrs. Salt, "My dear old fish, go and boil your own head".

  • Pro claim 2

    It was hypocritical of Mr. Wonka to be rude, as he thought that the children deserved to be punished for that same reason.

  • Con claim 1

    He was also incredibly polite and excited to meet the children and their families for the first time.
