Lucille was suspicious, and thought that maybe the boy was speaking in some kind of code. She suspected that 'Slytherin' might be a reference to her best friend and chief rival, Lucille Austero, who had once had such extreme vertigo that she could hardly stand -- and therefore had to slither on the floor.
Her eyes narrowed. "Oh, you are, are you? You haven't seen a bald man around here, have you? He's completely hairless. He has Lilliputia."
Lucille Austero was dating Stan Sitwell, the head of Bluth Company rival Sitwell Housing. Sitwell suffered from alopecia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alopecia_universalis), which had made him hairless. Lucille had confused his condition with a race of tiny people (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lilliput_and_Blefuscu) from the book Gulliver's Travels. She now, however, suspected Sitwell and Lucille 2 of doing to her what the real Lilliputians had done to Gulliver, and capturing her for their own nefarious purposes.
