At early stage of Ashley's personal story, you're caught interrupting with her being forced to do the homework in between classes as a punishment for being Ashley.
The teacher gets annoyed and makes you sit in class for a whole history lesson as an alternative to being arrested for tresspassing. Also, as an object lesson in respecting authority figures that goes right over Ashley's head anyway
As a bonus, could get... uh... Jane... what's her name?
Juliet and Kate involved in the scene.
Runey could slot it as Kate's riddles progression scene, so it appears before relevant puzzles. Also, MC getting "schooled" might be a good - and entertaining - way for the additional exposition.
