This episode vividly illustrates Eliza’s flighty and inconsistent behaviour. But her feelings are deeply wounded and she just needs some understanding and a loving person. She has been treated like a puppet during all those six months of hard studies, and now that she has already performed her role perfectly, she feels no one needs her anymore. She notices indifference in every glance and utterance of her teacher and that is what makes her see red. Her disappointment gives rise to an uncontrollable burst of rage. The scene when Eliza throws a pair of slippers at Higgins is pretty suitable for making a sketch. Professor Higgins, standing in the doorway with the utmost surprise on his face, is going to have his head hit by a flying slipper. His astonishment is indescribable - he can’t account for this outbreak. He has never expected this flower girl from the gutters to show such a protest. Meanwhile, Eliza is holding the second slipper to hurl at Henry, her face contorted with anger and a deep-seated insult. Tears are running down her cheeks smearing her beautiful make-up all over her lovely face. The characters are standing looking at each other with detest and contempt. This picture could be a great illustration for the fever heat of the relationships between Higgins and Eliza. But the conflict was not provoked only by Higgins’ cue “Thank God it’s all over!” The causes of this emotional tension root much deeper. Higgins and Eliza see life and people differently. Their patterns of behaviour also differ. Henry is not used to dividing people into any groups and he prefers to treat them equally, that means with equal disdain. And Eliza is seeking for some justice but she seldom gets any respect or gentlehood from people. These two opposite points of view are supposed to collapse and, maybe, to give birth to some new feeling. Who knows?

Higgins and Eliza don’t seem to agree at all. They formulate their opinions clearly, but don’t hear each other. Higgins is a pragmatist. He thinks only about his profit. On the other hand Eliza cares for people’s feelings. They are different sides of one coin. For Higgins Eliza is a work of linguistic art. But he likes her. Maybe the professor even loves her, but in this case it’s a very strange love. Eliza should understand that Higgins helps her to break away from the gutter into a better world. But she needs not only physical support, but emotional intimacy. As far as we can judge, Shaw doesn’t take sides. He just shows us two different types of people, two different views on one life situation and gives us a chance to take the side that we prefer.

We can see several themes in the play. They are class stratification, love, people’s relationships, people’s fates, cultural norms and traditions, the link between the language and the culture. There are also some issues in the play such as social vices and injustice, mutual misunderstanding, a gap between the upper and lower class and, of course, misunderstanding between a man and a woman.

Higgins: You won my bet! You! Presumptuous insect! I won it. What did you throw those slippers at me for?
Liza: Because i wanted to smash your face. I'd like to kill you, you selfish brute. Why didt you leave me where you picked me out of - in the gutter? You thank God it's all over, and that now you can throw me back again there, do you? (She crisps her fingers frantically)

In this play we have conflict between Eliza and professor Higgins. To my mind Eliza formulated her point of view very clearly, she just wanted to know what she need to do next, she thought that they became a real compainers, that they have something in common, but Higgins didnt think so. The author used such a word as "use". So, it's possible to say, that Higgins used Eliza for winning his net with Colonel Pickering. He will not think about Eliza when she goes away from his house and life. It was not a secret that Mrs. Higgins was cynic and he thought about himself and didnt notice others.
