When she successfully ""passes"" in high society having in the process become a lovely young woman of sensitivity and rate Higgins dismisses her abruptly as a successfully completed experiment. Eliza, who now belongs neither to the upper class, whose mannerisms and speech she has learned, nor to the lower dess, from which she cane, rejects his dehumanizing attitude.
