00:00:13,130 --> 00:00:15,749
[Melody] Hi, my name is Melody Brooks.

2
00:00:16,349 --> 00:00:21,554
And for the price of a smoothie, you can
save a child like me with cerebral palsy.

3
00:00:22,522 --> 00:00:23,723
No, I'm just kidding.

4
00:00:24,257 --> 00:00:27,193
I don't want your money,
and I don't want your pity either.

5
00:00:27,827 --> 00:00:29,229
Go ahead and stare.

6
00:00:29,329 --> 00:00:30,330
It's 2002.

7
00:00:30,397 --> 00:00:33,600
You've never seen a girl in a wheelchair
who doesn't talk before?

8
00:00:34,434 --> 00:00:36,436
It's not like I have nothing to say.

9
00:00:36,536 --> 00:00:40,907
Oh, believe me, I have so much to say,
but my tongue won't cooperate.

10
00:00:41,700 --> 00:00:43,243
[inhales sharply]
I know what you're thinking.

11
00:00:43,343 --> 00:00:46,790
I sound pretty grown-up
for a 12-year-old, right?

12
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,214
I told you I can't talk.

13
00:00:48,882 --> 00:00:50,116
So I don't have a voice.

14
00:00:51,584 --> 00:00:55,355
This will all go a lot better
if you just listen.

15
00:00:58,558 --> 00:01:01,127
-Obviously, this isn't my voice.
-[chattering on TV]

16
00:01:01,227 --> 00:01:03,296
I have no idea
what my voice would sound like.

17
00:01:03,797 --> 00:01:06,866
So I can sound like whoever I want.

18
00:01:06,933 --> 00:01:08,735
[mom] Honey! Come on, please.

19
00:01:08,802 --> 00:01:12,205
Well, I have to say,
that earns "tutu" pieces of candy.

20
00:01:12,272 --> 00:01:14,874
-[mom] Great. Okay. Now brush your teeth.
-I love you.

21
00:01:14,941 --> 00:01:17,477
[Melody] And I love Jennifer Aniston.

22
00:01:17,577 --> 00:01:19,946
So, of course I picked her voice.

23
00:01:20,460 --> 00:01:21,381
And I'm just borrowing it.

24
00:01:21,448 --> 00:01:22,449
It's not like I stole it.

25
00:01:23,490 --> 00:01:24,617
Sharing is caring.

26
00:01:24,718 --> 00:01:26,152
[mom] Did they take our insurance?

27
00:01:26,252 --> 00:01:28,988
[dad] I was on hold for, like, two hours,
and then they hung up.

28
00:01:29,890 --> 00:01:30,256
[mom] That's so annoying.

29
00:01:30,323 --> 00:01:32,892
You know what? Mr. Grossman canceled
his hygiene appointment today,

30
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:34,627
so I'll just try them then.

31
00:01:34,728 --> 00:01:36,960
[Melody] This is Ollie.

32
00:01:36,162 --> 00:01:39,232
I wanted a dog,
but my parents said it's too much work.

33
00:01:39,833 --> 00:01:41,935
Here, boy. Here, boy. Ollie. [kissing]

34
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,470
Come on. Heel!

35
00:01:43,570 --> 00:01:45,672
-[mom] Come on. Penny, get dressed.
-[Melody] Heel!

36
00:01:45,772 --> 00:01:47,607
See? He's getting pretty good.

37
00:01:47,674 --> 00:01:49,809
-[children] Trick or treat!
-Just a minute!

38
00:01:52,112 --> 00:01:54,647
[mom] Penny, come here.
Come on. You gotta put this on, okay?

39
00:01:54,748 --> 00:01:56,116
[Penny] But I'm bored.

40
00:01:56,182 --> 00:01:58,184
-[mom] You can be bored as a farmer.
-[dad] School day.

41
00:01:58,284 --> 00:01:59,519
-[mom] Oh, yes.
-[Melody groans]

42

Why can't he just leave the TV on?

43
00:02:01,755 --> 00:02:03,656
[mom] …appointment
that my daughter, Melody, has

44
00:02:03,757 --> 00:02:05,191
with Dr. Spencer for three o'clock.

45

-[Penny mumbling]
-[dad] Here you go, sweet girl.

46
00:02:07,460 --> 00:02:09,162
[Melody] I love to make lists.

47
00:02:09,262 --> 00:02:12,320
Here is a list of things
I'll never get used to:

48
00:02:13,330 --> 00:02:15,435
butts in my face
because people don't see me,

49
00:02:16,436 --> 00:02:17,437

50
00:02:17,504 --> 00:02:18,672
[dad] Ollie.

51
00:02:18,772 --> 00:02:21,474
-…people who say hi but sound so sad…
-[whispers, indistinct]

52
00:02:21,541 --> 00:02:23,643
[Melody] …how JLo's hair
always looks perfect…

53
00:02:23,710 --> 00:02:25,378
[mom] The school's getting
a new playground.

54
00:02:25,478 --> 00:02:27,547
-[dad] That's a good thing, right?
-[mom] I can't believe…

55
00:02:27,647 --> 00:02:28,782
[Melody] …early mornings,

56
00:02:29,282 --> 00:02:31,284
the feeling of POP ROCKS in my mouth…

57
00:02:31,351 --> 00:02:33,190
[mom] There's not one accessible swing.

58
00:02:33,119 --> 00:02:34,454
[dad] Maybe it's not the final…

59
00:02:34,521 --> 00:02:37,230
[Melody] …that dessert is not considered
a complete meal.

60
00:02:37,123 --> 00:02:38,825
[mom] Penny, we gotta go. Let's do this.

61
00:02:38,892 --> 00:02:41,270
[dad] Please remember
this is about Melody, okay?

62
00:02:41,127 --> 00:02:42,896
-[mom sighs]
-[dad] Just don't make this about you.

-[mom] Penny. Penny.
-[Penny giggles]

64

-[mom] You have to come. We're late.
-[dad] That's not you?

00:02:47,801 --> 00:02:49,669
-[mom] Come on.
-[dad] Out, out. Come on.

[mom] Penny, come on. You're gonna have to
put these on in the car. Okay.

00:02:54,307 --> 00:02:55,342

Um, all right.
We don't-- Don't do that now.

72
00:03:01,748 --> 00:03:03,683
-[dad] Huh?
-Come on. Can you help me carry this out?

73
00:03:04,184 --> 00:03:05,251
And just put it in the car.

74
00:03:05,752 --> 00:03:06,820
Love you, ladybug.

[Mrs. Billups] In the alphabet--

160
00:06:51,211 --> 00:06:53,380
Hey. I'm sorry. Hi, everybody.

161
00:06:53,446 --> 00:06:55,215
[Mrs. Billups] Hi, Melody. Good morning.

162
00:06:55,281 --> 00:06:56,783
-We haven't started, so--
-[dad] Yeah. Sorry.

163
00:06:56,883 --> 00:06:58,510
-Hi, Sue. Sorry.
-Hi, Melody.

164
00:06:58,118 --> 00:07:00,453
We missed the bus again. Hi, everyone.

165

-[assistant] Good morning, Melody.
-Okay, bye. Miss you too.

166
00:07:02,622 --> 00:07:06,226
[Mrs. Billups] All right.
One, two, three. Eyes on me.

167
00:07:06,292 --> 00:07:08,328
Carl, maybe you can zoom zoom this way.

168
00:07:08,428 --> 00:07:09,929
-And Willy.

[Melody] This is H4-6.

171
00:07:14,501 --> 00:07:16,436
It's been my classroom since kindergarten.

172
00:07:17,300 --> 00:07:19,139
I've had the same teacher for seven years.

173
00:07:19,639 --> 00:07:20,774
I'm like Lisa Simpson.

174
00:07:21,307 --> 00:07:22,409

175
00:07:22,475 --> 00:07:24,644

-[Mrs. Billups] Everybody ready?
-[Willy] Everybody is ready!

178
00:07:28,682 --> 00:07:30,417
What does the alphabet start with?

179
00:07:30,984 --> 00:07:33,753
Melody, do you want to continue watching?

180
00:07:34,587 --> 00:07:36,690
[Mrs. Billups] And let's all sing
a nice big, big, proud belt.

181
00:07:36,790 --> 00:07:38,792
Or do you want to continue listening
to your book?

182
00:07:39,959 --> 00:07:41,261
Yeah? Okay.

183

[Mrs. Billups] Well, if it's there.
But-- [laughing]

195
00:08:07,454 --> 00:08:09,322
All right. So, you guys--

[student] Jodie!

197
00:08:11,991 --> 00:08:13,526
[voice on recording] Are you there, God?

198
00:08:13,626 --> 00:08:15,395
It's me, Margaret.

199
00:08:15,495 --> 00:08:17,530
I can't wait until two o'clock, God.

200
00:08:17,630 --> 00:08:19,232
That's when our dance starts.

201
00:08:19,332 --> 00:08:20,734
[Melody] Things I want…

202
00:08:20,834 --> 00:08:22,135
[audiobook continues]

203
00:08:22,202 --> 00:08:23,636
[Melody] …cool clothes,

204
00:08:24,971 --> 00:08:26,339
a boy to like me,

205
00:08:27,707 --> 00:08:31,211
to be able to put on mascara
without poking my eye out.

206
00:08:32,812 --> 00:08:35,215
There are a lot of things that I want.

207
00:08:37,717 --> 00:08:40,153
-[whispers] Can I take these off?
-[coos]

208
00:08:42,722 --> 00:08:44,224
-[Mrs. Billups] So, A, B, C…
-There we go.

209
00:08:44,324 --> 00:08:45,859
-Hi.
-[Melody coos]

210
00:08:45,925 --> 00:08:48,228
I'm Katherine. Nice to meet you.

[coos]

212
00:08:49,829 --> 00:08:51,331
Oh. What you reading?

213
00:08:52,332 --> 00:08:54,234
-Can I see?
-[Melody coos]

214
00:08:54,334 --> 00:08:56,236
[Katherine] Oh, my goodness.

215
00:08:56,336 --> 00:08:57,437
I love this book.

216
00:08:59,506 --> 00:09:01,875
-[chuckles] Have you read it before?
-[coos]

217
00:09:02,876 --> 00:09:04,744
-Looking up means "yes"?
-[coos]

218
00:09:05,345 --> 00:09:06,346
Got it.

219
00:09:07,113 --> 00:09:08,348
Ooh. This is a good one.

220
00:09:08,882 --> 00:09:12,886
You know, my favorite part
is when Margaret and Janie go to buy pads…

221
00:09:12,952 --> 00:09:16,560
[chuckles] …but then they see the boy
at the register, and they run away.

222
00:09:16,122 --> 00:09:17,524
[laughs]

223
00:09:18,858 --> 00:09:20,226
What's yours?

224
00:09:20,293 --> 00:09:23,630
[Mrs. Billups] A, B, C, D, E--
Oh, uh, let's go back to A.

225
00:09:24,970 --> 00:09:25,265
And try down a little lower.

226
00:09:25,365 --> 00:09:27,434
So, A, right?

227
00:09:27,534 --> 00:09:30,700
-[assistant] So you've been listening?
-[Mrs. Billups] Do this.

228
00:09:30,770 --> 00:09:32,138
Wanna put one on?

229
00:09:32,238 --> 00:09:33,406
Are we being helpful?

230
00:09:33,473 --> 00:09:34,874
[Katherine] The party?

231
00:09:34,941 --> 00:09:36,576
-[chuckles]
-[Katherine laughs]

232
00:09:36,643 --> 00:09:38,111
Norman's birthday party.

233
00:09:38,211 --> 00:09:40,413
-[laughs]
-[laughing] Okay.

234
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,784
Why do you think Margaret lies
about Philip's kiss at the party?

235
00:09:49,322 --> 00:09:51,658
-Because she was trying to be cool.
-[chuckles]

236
00:09:51,758 --> 00:09:53,226
[Katherine] Yes, she was.

237
00:09:53,293 --> 00:09:54,961
Yes, she was.

238
00:09:55,610 --> 00:09:56,930
Mm-hmm. Awesome.

239
00:09:57,664 --> 00:09:59,599
[Mrs. Billups] Melody is a joy
to have in class.

240
00:09:59,666 --> 00:10:01,334
She is a very sweet girl.

241
00:10:01,434 --> 00:10:06,639
My summary is on page ten, but in short,
she meets or exceeds all my expectations.

242
00:10:07,173 --> 00:10:08,675
Thank you.
That was wonderful, Mrs. Billups.

243
00:10:08,775 --> 00:10:13,680
Now, here we have the individualized
education plan goals that we devised.

244
00:10:13,780 --> 00:10:15,949
-If everyone takes a look at page ten.
-[Katherine] Thank you.

245
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,617
I'm sorry, I have a question.

246
00:10:17,684 --> 00:10:19,850
-That's why we're here…
-[dad] Right.

247
00:10:19,152 --> 00:10:20,820
…uh, Mr. Brooks. [clears throat]

248
00:10:21,988 --> 00:10:25,825
If Melody exceeds your expectations,
why don't you raise your expectations?

249
00:10:27,193 --> 00:10:28,628
[Mrs. Billups] Oh, Chuck.

250
00:10:28,695 --> 00:10:31,631
Melody does very well for her abilities.

251
00:10:31,698 --> 00:10:32,799
She listens.

252
00:10:32,866 --> 00:10:34,668
-She has the classroom routines down pat.
-Right.

253
00:10:34,768 --> 00:10:36,836
-Has she complained?
-Never.

254
00:10:37,771 --> 00:10:39,272
She adores Mrs. Billups.

255
00:10:40,173 --> 00:10:43,977
It's just she-- she shows
a great capacity for curiosity.

256
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,379
You know, at home,
she watches a lot of documentaries.

257
00:10:46,479 --> 00:10:48,480
She-- She loves her telescope.

258
00:10:48,648 --> 00:10:51,151
Uh, we go to museums.

259
00:10:51,217 --> 00:10:54,220
I'm sure Melody enjoys her time
together with you.

260
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,790
But it's-- it's more than that,
Mrs. Antenucci.

261
00:10:56,856 --> 00:10:57,857
It's that--

262
00:10:57,957 --> 00:10:59,125
[sighs]

263
00:11:01,194 --> 00:11:02,529
She loves to learn.

264
00:11:02,629 --> 00:11:03,797
We see it in her eyes.

265
00:11:03,863 --> 00:11:05,331
So I just-- I-I'm wondering if--

266
00:11:05,398 --> 00:11:10,837
[teacher] Mr. Brooks, we design IEPs
based on standardized assessments,

267
00:11:10,904 --> 00:11:13,373
not on the looks in children's eyes.

268
00:11:13,473 --> 00:11:15,410
Uh, what Mrs. Gardner means--

269
00:11:15,141 --> 00:11:19,790
It-It-- It's hard to be objective
about your own daughter's limitations.

270
00:11:19,179 --> 00:11:20,547
-Yes?
-[Chuck] Yeah.

271
00:11:20,647 --> 00:11:25,585
Okay. Um, why don't we resume
and take a look again at the-the--

272
00:11:25,685 --> 00:11:26,820
Uh, of-of course…

273
00:11:28,588 --> 00:11:32,559
You know, the assessments only tell us
how likely she is to succeed.

274
00:11:33,593 --> 00:11:36,596
Not if she will or why she may not.

275
00:11:36,696 --> 00:11:40,330
Mr. Brooks, I am working on a program
that is a part of--

276
00:11:40,100 --> 00:11:41,368
This is, uh, Ms. Ray.

277
00:11:41,434 --> 00:11:43,370
She's a student from the university.

278
00:11:43,436 --> 00:11:44,904
A postdoctoral fellow.

279
00:11:45,500 --> 00:11:47,173
Uh, she's here today to observe.

280
00:11:47,741 --> 00:11:50,276
Yes, I just-- I just really think
that Melody might benefit from--

281
00:11:50,377 --> 00:11:52,445
I'm so sorry I'm late. Sorry. So sorry.

282
00:11:52,545 --> 00:11:55,150
I got caught up with my little one
in kindergarten.

283
00:11:55,810 --> 00:11:57,830
-Hi. I'm Diane.
-Hi. Dr. Ray.

284
00:11:57,183 --> 00:11:59,520
-Thank you for being on the team.
-[Katherine] Thanks.

285
00:11:59,119 --> 00:12:00,453
-[Mrs. Antenucci] Uh, well…
-Babe.

286
00:12:00,553 --> 00:12:03,560
[Mrs. Antenucci] …she's actually a student
from the university, but---

287
00:12:03,123 --> 00:12:07,627
Okay. I, um, think we're gonna need
to get into that. [laughs]

288
00:12:07,727 --> 00:12:11,698
Um, how is our girl?

["In the Hall of the Mountain King"
playing]

290
00:12:13,867 --> 00:12:14,868
[Penny] You got a two.

-Yeah.

00:12:20,140 --> 00:12:21,274

-Maybe we have a trick-or-treater.
-[Chuck laughing]

297
00:12:27,113 --> 00:12:28,748
What's the scoop, girls? How do I look?

298
00:12:28,815 --> 00:12:30,550
-[Melody laughs]
-Scoop rhymes with poop.

299
00:12:30,617 --> 00:12:32,218
I mean, yeah. She's not wrong.

300
00:12:32,285 --> 00:12:33,486
[Diane] You look good, Daddy.

[Chuck] Right. Yeah, of course.
How you doing?

308
00:12:46,166 --> 00:12:48,435
Doing good.
Uh, we never got a chance to really talk.

309

624
00:26:51,177 --> 00:26:52,345
[Claire] Did you do the math?

625
00:26:52,445 --> 00:26:54,447
[Jodie] Uh, I did the math, but, like…

626
00:26:54,948 --> 00:26:57,283
[Claire] Okay, so my mom
is gonna drive us. So just hurry up.

627
00:26:57,350 --> 00:27:00,200
[clears throat] I was assured
that this would not be a disruption.

628
00:27:00,620 --> 00:27:01,654
[Katherine] It won't.

629
00:27:02,155 --> 00:27:05,859
Presume competence, and I promise
you're gonna be very impressed.

630
00:27:06,526 --> 00:27:08,280
Hi.

631
00:27:08,928 --> 00:27:10,163
Hi.

632
00:27:10,263 --> 00:27:12,465
[Katherine] Willy,
why don't you come over here?

633
00:27:18,638 --> 00:27:20,840
"Shoes." Sorry, I--

634
00:27:21,508 --> 00:27:22,776
[Melody] Uh.

635
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,980
Oh, thanks. Your shoes are, uh…

636
00:27:28,140 --> 00:27:29,649
-They're nice too.
-[chuckles]

637
00:27:29,716 --> 00:27:31,284
-[chuckles, grunts]
-[Rose chuckles]

638
00:27:33,186 --> 00:27:34,821
So you two are gonna be
in our class every week?

639
00:27:34,888 --> 00:27:35,889
Mmm.

640
00:27:37,991 --> 00:27:39,125
-Hey, Rose.
-Cool.

641
00:27:39,192 --> 00:27:40,393
-Are you coming?
-Yeah.

642
00:27:40,493 --> 00:27:41,961
-[Claire] Let's go.
-I'll see you next time.

643
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,230
-[Claire] Run, run, run.
-[Jodie] Let's go. Let's go.

644
00:27:44,330 --> 00:27:46,366
-Run. She's gonna literally kill me. Go.
-[Rose] Sorry.

645
00:27:49,690 --> 00:27:50,470
[Katherine] Melody, you ready to go?

646
00:27:50,537 --> 00:27:52,238
[Melody] Things I never did before today:

647
00:27:52,739 --> 00:27:55,575
Be in a class
that was all sixth graders. Check.

648
00:27:55,675 --> 00:27:56,676
[Diane] What was that?

649
00:27:56,743 --> 00:27:59,412
[Melody] Answer the teacher's question
when no one else knew. Check.

650
00:27:59,512 --> 00:28:00,680
-What?
-[Melody giggles]

651
00:28:00,747 --> 00:28:02,150
[Diane gasps]

652
00:28:02,820 --> 00:28:04,500
How dare you? [chuckles]

653
00:28:04,150 --> 00:28:06,152
[Melody] Talk to Rose.
Check, check, check.

654
00:28:07,987 --> 00:28:09,422
Take a bath by myself.

655
00:28:09,522 --> 00:28:11,424
[sighs] Someday, maybe.

656
00:28:11,925 --> 00:28:13,660
-Wouldn't that be nice?
-Here.

657
00:28:13,727 --> 00:28:14,928
-But my mom loves this.
-You okay?

658
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,300
So I throw her a bone every now and then.

659
00:28:17,970 --> 00:28:18,980
[Diane] Well, truce.

660
00:28:18,665 --> 00:28:20,533
-Time out. Time out. Time out.
-[Melody chuckles]

661
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,535
Um, I keep forgetting.

662
00:28:23,770 --> 00:28:26,940
There is an exhibit at the university
on interstellar objects.

663
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:28,942
-Do you wanna go?
-[grunts]

664
00:28:29,420 --> 00:28:31,378
Yeah? No? Maybe so?

665
00:28:35,382 --> 00:28:37,617
Friend? Yeah, you can bring a friend.

666
00:28:37,717 --> 00:28:39,352
You want me to call Maria's mom?

667
00:28:45,925 --> 00:28:46,926
Who's Rose?

668
00:28:48,194 --> 00:28:49,362
-How about this?
-[Melody] No.

669
00:28:49,429 --> 00:28:52,650
-[groans] That's hideous.
-Melody, you just have to pick something.

670
00:28:52,132 --> 00:28:53,700
-[Melody groans]
-[Chuck] Penny.

671
00:28:53,767 --> 00:28:55,368
Your friend's gonna be here in a minute.

672
00:28:55,435 --> 00:28:57,437
[groaning]

673
00:28:57,537 --> 00:28:58,538
This?

674
00:28:59,390 --> 00:29:00,273
[Melody] Oh, my God.

675
00:29:00,373 --> 00:29:01,474
[Diane] Over. What?

676
00:29:01,574 --> 00:29:02,742
[Chuck] Penny, come on.

677
00:29:03,276 --> 00:29:05,445
-Tights?
-[Melody] Yes. Finally.

678
00:29:05,545 --> 00:29:08,480
Yes? No, we're not wearing tights.
They're impractical.

679
00:29:08,114 --> 00:29:10,483
We're gonna be getting in and out of cars
and using the restrooms.

680
00:29:10,583 --> 00:29:11,651
-The public restrooms.
-[groans]

681
00:29:11,751 --> 00:29:13,253
-[Melody] Then pick something good.
-I got it.

682
00:29:13,319 --> 00:29:14,320
-[Melody] A skirt.
-Put it on.

683
00:29:14,421 --> 00:29:15,755
-We gotta get ready.
-[groans]

684
00:29:15,822 --> 00:29:17,891
What? It's a shirt and pants.

685
00:29:18,892 --> 00:29:19,893
[doorbell rings]

686
00:29:19,959 --> 00:29:22,395
[narrator on TV] The humpback whale
was given its name

687
00:29:22,462 --> 00:29:25,598
because of the shape
of the hump on its dorsal.

688
00:29:26,332 --> 00:29:28,301
-Hi, Mrs. Brooks. I'm Rose Spencer.
-[Diane] Hi.

689
00:29:28,401 --> 00:29:30,937
Um, I parked my bike
at the end of your ramp.

690
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:32,720
Is that okay?

691
00:29:34,700 --> 00:29:35,809
Yeah. Um, welcome.

692
00:29:35,909 --> 00:29:36,943
Come in.

693
00:29:37,100 --> 00:29:38,845
Uh, Melody, your, um--

694
00:29:39,346 --> 00:29:40,947
Rose is here.

695
00:29:41,648 --> 00:29:43,683
-Hi.
-Hi.

696
00:29:43,783 --> 00:29:47,320
[narrator] Each whale has
its own unique pattern on the underside…

697
00:29:47,420 --> 00:29:49,255
Oh, why don't you turn off the TV, kitten?

698
00:29:50,457 --> 00:29:52,959
-Um, so you're in, um…
-[TV volume increases]

699
00:29:53,260 --> 00:29:56,129
[narrator]
…for identifying individual whales.

700
00:29:57,964 --> 00:30:00,133
-…Mr. Dimming's class?
-Yes.

701
00:30:00,667 --> 00:30:02,435
-How's that?
-Hi.

702
00:30:02,502 --> 00:30:04,371
-What toy do you wanna be?
-[Rose] Ooh, wow.

703
00:30:04,471 --> 00:30:05,672
[Chuck] Hey, you must be Rose.

704
00:30:05,772 --> 00:30:07,674
-[Rose] Yeah.
-[Chuck] Hi, nice to meet you.

705
00:30:07,774 --> 00:30:10,110
-Ooh, what's this?
-[Penny] Daddy, we're playing.

706
00:30:10,176 --> 00:30:12,645
[Rose] The red fire truck has a ladder.
That's cool.

707
00:30:12,712 --> 00:30:13,713
To save cats in trees?

708
00:30:13,813 --> 00:30:15,482
[Chuck] Penny,
that can't be what you're wearing.

709
00:30:15,548 --> 00:30:17,317
-No, no, no! Get back here. [grunts]
-[Penny giggles]

710
00:30:17,384 --> 00:30:21,540
[Chuck] All right.
We have liftoff in T-minus two minutes.

711
00:30:21,721 --> 00:30:23,990
-[imitating rocket]
-[vocalizes]

712
00:30:24,557 --> 00:30:25,558
Ah. Oh.

713
00:30:29,462 --> 00:30:30,463
[vocalizes]

714
00:30:31,865 --> 00:30:32,866
You good?

715
00:30:33,366 --> 00:30:34,634
Yeah.

716
00:30:35,301 --> 00:30:36,536
-[Chuck] Penny.
-Cool.

717
00:30:52,552 --> 00:30:54,870
Uh, we're gonna go soon?

718
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:57,657
-Yeah.
-[Rose] I heard it's a lot of fun there.

719
00:30:58,158 --> 00:30:59,159
[coos]

720
00:31:00,493 --> 00:31:02,929
So, Rose, we're-- You know,
we're happy that you decided to join us.

721
00:31:03,290 --> 00:31:04,300
[Rose imitates rocket]

722
00:31:04,970 --> 00:31:05,498
-[Penny giggles]
-Sure.

723
00:31:05,565 --> 00:31:07,434
My mom says
just 'cause some kids are different,

724
00:31:07,534 --> 00:31:09,502
doesn't mean we shouldn't treat them
like normal people.

725
00:31:09,569 --> 00:31:11,710
-What-- What's normal?
-[grunting]

726
00:31:11,171 --> 00:31:13,540
-I mean, am I normal?
-[Rose] No, no, no, no, no.

727
00:31:13,606 --> 00:31:15,942
Are you normal?
I-I-I tend to think that normal is--

728
00:31:16,420 --> 00:31:17,544
Hey, Mom,
we're trying to make friends here.

729
00:31:17,610 --> 00:31:18,912
Whoa.

730
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:22,150
-[Penny yips]
-So, girls, what do we think?

731
00:31:22,820 --> 00:31:24,751
A little spa-- space time or…

732
00:31:24,851 --> 00:31:25,852
[sighs]

733
00:31:26,619 --> 00:31:28,855
[Penny] Mommy, I wanna go over there.

734
00:31:28,922 --> 00:31:30,190
Okay. We're gonna go over here.

735
00:31:30,256 --> 00:31:31,257
Huh?

736
00:31:31,358 --> 00:31:33,360
-To this thing. Okay.
-[Penny] Over here.

737
00:31:34,394 --> 00:31:36,763
[Rose] Do you know a lot about,
like, space or whatever?

738
00:31:36,863 --> 00:31:39,132
-[coos]
-That's cool.

739
00:31:39,933 --> 00:31:42,680
I mean, you must get to watch a lot of TV.

740
00:31:42,135 --> 00:31:46,473
No offense or anything, but my mom won't
let me do anything that's not productive.

741
00:31:46,573 --> 00:31:48,408
Like, on Mondays, I have my math tutor,

742
00:31:48,475 --> 00:31:50,977
and then on Tuesdays, I have chess,
and then Wednesdays…

743
00:31:51,770 --> 00:31:53,913
[space museum narrator 1]
…nebula is a type of interstellar cloud…

744
00:31:54,914 --> 00:31:55,982
[Penny giggles]

745
00:31:57,500 --> 00:32:01,540
[narrator 1] …that is so dense that it
obscures the visible wavelength of light…

746
00:32:01,121 --> 00:32:03,223
[narrator 2]
The distances between planets…

747
00:32:03,289 --> 00:32:04,424
[Rose, Claire, Jodie laugh]

748
00:32:04,491 --> 00:32:07,127
[Melody] Things I can do
that you only think I can't:

749
00:32:07,894 --> 00:32:08,962
make people laugh,

750
00:32:10,163 --> 00:32:11,164
a relay race,

751
00:32:12,499 --> 00:32:13,900
algebra,

752
00:32:13,967 --> 00:32:15,468
feed myself,

753
00:32:16,236 --> 00:32:17,570
beat you at a staring contest.

754
00:32:17,637 --> 00:32:18,638
[Chuck] Hey, Rose.

755
00:32:19,773 --> 00:32:21,474
Can you try to remember to include Melody?

756
00:32:21,574 --> 00:32:22,575
Sorry, girls.

757
00:32:23,109 --> 00:32:25,345
I was just with her.
I saw my friends and wanted to say hi.

758
00:32:25,445 --> 00:32:26,446
[Chuck] I understand.

759
00:32:26,513 --> 00:32:28,648
I know it's easy
to get excited and run off,

760
00:32:28,748 --> 00:32:31,317
but just remember that Melody
can't go everywhere that you can.

761
00:32:31,418 --> 00:32:33,486
[Claire] Wait,
are you talking about the special ed kid?

762
00:32:33,586 --> 00:32:35,655
[Chuck] I know it's nice
to hang out with your friends.

763
00:32:35,755 --> 00:32:39,325
I'm just trying to say that maybe
you could find a way to include her.

764
00:32:39,426 --> 00:32:40,427
Okay?

765
00:32:41,861 --> 00:32:42,862
Where is she?

766
00:32:43,363 --> 00:32:47,133
[Stephen Hawking] Although we are
puny creatures on a cosmic scale,

767
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:52,172
we have established a sort of order
in one small part of the universe.

768
00:32:53,306 --> 00:32:57,677
We have managed to understand
some of the workings of the universe

769
00:32:57,777 --> 00:33:01,314
and may even find a complete theory
before too long.

770
00:33:02,482 --> 00:33:03,817
If we do that…

771
00:33:03,883 --> 00:33:04,884
[Chuck] Melody.

772
00:33:05,618 --> 00:33:07,520
Hey, Mel, you can't run off like that.

773
00:33:09,122 --> 00:33:10,123
Do you understand?

774
00:33:11,825 --> 00:33:14,561
[Hawking] When we were young,
we weren't afraid to ask why…

775
00:33:14,661 --> 00:33:16,229
[Chuck] That's Stephen Hawking.

776
00:33:16,896 --> 00:33:18,498
He's kinda like you, huh?

777
00:33:18,565 --> 00:33:19,566
-Mmm.

-Yeah.

784

[Diane] What's this?

785

with this innovative"…

-Yeah, I-I know.

She doesn't need to be pushed on a swing.

793
00:34:09,182 --> 00:34:10,350
She needs to be hanging out.

794

the phone and gossiping about boys and--

-Seventeen thousand dollars.

798
00:34:24,464 --> 00:34:25,532
Ah.

799
00:34:25,598 --> 00:34:27,801
That's just the device alone,
not including add-ons.

800
00:34:27,901 --> 00:34:29,703
-What about insurance?
-[Chuck] No.

801
00:34:29,769 --> 00:34:32,739
I talked on the phone
for two hours with someone. [stammers]

802
00:34:33,373 --> 00:34:35,975
Did you explain? I mean,
you can't take no from these people.

803
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:37,210
Oh, I explained.

804
00:34:38,812 --> 00:34:39,813
I begged.

805
00:34:39,913 --> 00:34:40,947
I yelled.

806
00:34:41,470 --> 00:34:42,115
I apologized for yelling.

807
00:34:42,215 --> 00:34:44,718
I apologized for the tone of my apology
until the lady said

808
00:34:44,784 --> 00:34:47,220
that her shift was over
and that I had to call back on Monday.

809
00:34:47,287 --> 00:34:48,888
And now I don't know
what I'm supposed to do.

What am I supposed to do?

You're supposed to bring in the big guns.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay.

813

this is Billander Insurance. Please hold.

Hi.

Oh. Hi. Can I help you?

818
00:35:10,100 --> 00:35:12,312
[Diane] Uh, no, I don't think so.

819
00:35:12,412 --> 00:35:15,810
What's your, um… [smacks lips]
…your supervisor's name?

And what's Mrs. White's boss's name?

-Mrs. White's?
-Yeah.

-Mr. Potts.
-Okay.

But he's the vice president
of the company,

so he doesn't usually do that much--

Oh, "Leonard Potts." I see it.
Thank you so much.

-I'm gonna sit there and wait.

sitting right outside your--

-She's got plenty of time.

-No, she, um--

She took out knitting, sir.

838

What do you think of these?

839
00:35:57,230 --> 00:35:59,325
"Not cool."

Hey, do you have these in any other color?

841
00:36:02,862 --> 00:36:05,832
I think she was thinking of maybe,
you know, something a little cooler.

[groans]

843

that fit her pronation.

-[whispering] It's your mom.

847
00:36:21,648 --> 00:36:23,583
I mean, well, they wanna get her assessed.

848
00:36:23,683 --> 00:36:24,884
Oh.

849
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,322
I mean,
I guess before they pay for her to talk,

850
00:36:29,389 --> 00:36:31,491
they wanna make sure
she has something to say.

Now…

862
00:37:04,524 --> 00:37:06,526
I'm going to ask you some questions,

863
00:37:07,270 --> 00:37:11,197
and I want you to give me
your best answer.

864
00:37:14,534 --> 00:37:16,536
[Diane] God, this is so stressful.

865
00:37:16,603 --> 00:37:18,204
Why do these always take so long?

866
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:20,273
It's gonna be fine.

867

[doctor] Which one of these
is not like the others?

868

[Melody] Not like the others.
Not like the others.

Cherries have a pit.

And bananas are yellow.

874
00:37:56,142 --> 00:38:00,513
So, I guess the real question is,
which answer does she think is right?

875
00:38:00,613 --> 00:38:01,648
[doctor] Which one?

876
00:38:03,750 --> 00:38:04,851
[Melody] Maybe banana?

877
00:38:05,352 --> 00:38:06,953
Balloon. No, banana.

878
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,589
Balloon. Banana, balloon, balloon, banana.

884

00:40:43,276 --> 00:40:46,179
Um, well, they told us
that it would be a waste of our time.

935
00:40:46,279 --> 00:40:47,614
It's not a waste of time.

936
00:40:47,681 --> 00:40:48,848
-Well, we agree with that.
-Yeah.

937
00:40:48,948 --> 00:40:51,840
[Chuck] But we thought
maybe you would know somebody here

938
00:40:51,151 --> 00:40:52,786
at the university
who might be able to help.

939
00:40:52,852 --> 00:40:54,154
[Katherine] "…specialty or expertise."

940
00:40:54,254 --> 00:40:56,423
Yeah. Do you know anyone
at the children's hospital or--

941
00:40:56,489 --> 00:41:00,527
Mr. Brooks, this says a doctor with a
relevant area of specialty or expertise.

942
00:41:01,127 --> 00:41:03,196
It doesn't say anything
about a medical doctor.

943
00:41:03,763 --> 00:41:06,599
-Oh, yeah. I know. I knew-- I knew that.
-[both chuckle]

944
00:41:07,167 --> 00:41:08,168
Okay, let's see.

945
00:41:08,268 --> 00:41:11,638
Um, "Patient is capable of learning."
Check.

946
00:41:12,372 --> 00:41:14,941
"Patient understands complex concepts."

947
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:16,900
Absolutely.

948
00:41:16,810 --> 00:41:18,945
"Patient follows multistep instructions."
Check.

949
00:41:20,460 --> 00:41:21,470
Check.

950
00:41:21,781 --> 00:41:27,554
Signed Dr. Katherine Ray, PhD.

951
00:41:27,654 --> 00:41:28,655
Done. [chuckles]

952
00:41:28,722 --> 00:41:29,956
[Melody] My bad.

953
00:41:30,623 --> 00:41:32,525
Things I'm gonna do with my Medi-Talker:

954
00:41:32,625 --> 00:41:34,270
Call all my friends on the phone,

955
00:41:34,127 --> 00:41:35,395

956
00:41:35,962 --> 00:41:37,364

00:41:37,464 --> 00:41:39,650
-give a classroom presentation…
-Come on.

958
00:41:39,165 --> 00:41:40,233
[Melody] …recite a poem,

959
00:41:40,333 --> 00:41:41,501
yell to my neighbors,

960
00:41:41,568 --> 00:41:43,360
order food in a drive-through,

961
00:41:43,136 --> 00:41:44,204
use a walkie-talkie,

962
00:41:44,304 --> 00:41:45,472
do karaoke,

963
00:41:45,538 --> 00:41:47,307
-demand a later bedtime…
-There he was, the UPS guy…

964
00:41:47,374 --> 00:41:48,375
[Melody] …thank Katherine,

965
00:41:48,475 --> 00:41:50,477
tell Penny to stop stealing my lip gloss.

966
00:41:50,543 --> 00:41:52,512
I said to him,
"You have to give me the package.

967
00:41:52,579 --> 00:41:54,814
They've been waiting for it for forever.

968
00:41:54,881 --> 00:41:56,149
And so you have to do this."

969
00:41:56,216 --> 00:41:58,218
-[Diane grunts]
-So that you could talk to everybody.

970
00:41:58,318 --> 00:41:59,919
And it was so excit-- And I was so--

971
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:03,690
And I must have looked so ridiculous,
and he probably thought that I was crazy.

972
00:42:03,757 --> 00:42:05,992
-But I said you have to give this to me.
-[Diane] Thank you.

973
00:42:06,590 --> 00:42:08,280
I pretended to be you. [chuckles]

974
00:42:08,940 --> 00:42:09,950
That's fraud.

975
00:42:10,530 --> 00:42:12,980
-[Melody chuckles]
-Look.

976
00:42:12,699 --> 00:42:14,100
-Look. Look at that.
-All right.

977

-See? You see that?

[gasps]

979
00:42:17,700 --> 00:42:19,239
All right. Let me look
what we're supposed to do first.

980
00:42:19,873 --> 00:42:22,175
-"Setting up the systems."
-[Mrs. V] That's a great color, right?

981
00:42:22,242 --> 00:42:23,243
"Chapter"… Okay.

982
00:42:23,343 --> 00:42:25,745
Well, wait. We have to set up
our voice preferences first.

983
00:42:25,845 --> 00:42:27,747
-[groans]
-Wait. I gotta read the instructions.

984
00:42:27,847 --> 00:42:30,884
"Word windows. Word windows
are the building blocks of Medi-Talker.

as well as type your own words."

986
00:42:34,521 --> 00:42:36,756
-Oh, look. You can have music, games.

-That's really cool.

988
00:42:38,692 --> 00:42:42,620
-Or we could just go ahead without a clue.
-[Melody chuckles]

989
00:42:42,128 --> 00:42:43,396
-Okay. Let's see.

[Diane] "Setup. Voice setup."

Wait, is that a talking computer?

[Willy] You're not supposed
to call out, Melody.

Okay, Willy. Okay. Thank you.

Okay, guys. It's actually not
the computer that's talking.

It's Melody that's talking.

Wow, Melody,
that's a very cool, uh, fancy new gadget.

Uh, but I will say that Willy is right.

Uh, please wait for me to call on you
before you answer out loud.

Um, okay.

1054

As I think most of you know,
I coach the school's Whiz Kids team.

[Mr. Dimming] Yeah, right? Yeah.

00:46:22,115 --> 00:46:23,149
Give it up for Whiz Kids.

1058

This is, uh,
a very exciting time in the school year

[Mr. Dimming] Think about it.
Dig deep. Look inside yourselves.

1062

Do you have what it takes to join the
storied ranks of the Spaulding Whiz Kids?

We'll see. We'll see.
I'll see you at tryouts.

1070
00:46:57,851 --> 00:47:00,820
All right, now back to work.

1071
00:47:00,887 --> 00:47:04,570
We're talking about the Founding Fathers,

Uh. Hi, Melody. Cool machine.

-[students clamoring, cheering]
-Yeah, yeah! Go! Go!

1405
01:02:59,145 --> 01:03:00,246
[student] Oh, my God.

1406
01:03:00,747 --> 01:03:02,849
Good morning, Spaulding students.

1407
01:03:02,949 --> 01:03:05,485
This is Mr. Dimming
with a quick announcement.

1408
01:03:05,585 --> 01:03:09,422
We had a great turnout
for this year's Whiz Kids tryout,

1409
01:03:09,489 --> 01:03:11,624
so thank you to all who participated.

1410
01:03:11,691 --> 01:03:14,794
It was, uh, really, really tough
to make this decision,

1411
01:03:14,861 --> 01:03:16,529
but the-- the numbers don't lie.

1412
01:03:16,629 --> 01:03:20,200
And now, without further ado,
here are your 2003 Whiz Kids!

1413
01:03:20,300 --> 01:03:22,168
-Hey. Is this it?
-Yeah.

1414
01:03:22,268 --> 01:03:23,303
Okay.

1415
01:03:24,337 --> 01:03:28,641
The four students who will represent
our school in competition:

1416
01:03:28,708 --> 01:03:33,213
First, with a score of 89, Rose Spencer.

1417
01:03:33,713 --> 01:03:35,315
Give it up for Rose.

1418
01:03:35,382 --> 01:03:36,383
[laughs]

1419
01:03:36,483 --> 01:03:39,552
[Mr. Dimming] Coming in
with a score of 91, Rodney Walsh.

1420
01:03:39,652 --> 01:03:40,720
-Yeah!
-That's what I thought.

1421
01:03:40,820 --> 01:03:42,288
-Yeah!
-That's what I thought. I'm the best.

1422
01:03:42,355 --> 01:03:43,723
-I'm literally the best.
-You didn't know.

1423
01:03:43,823 --> 01:03:45,859
Give it up for Claire West.

1424
01:03:45,959 --> 01:03:48,610
-[cheering]
-Ah, Claire!

1425

[giggles]

1426
01:03:49,229 --> 01:03:53,233
Finally, with a score of 97.

1427
01:03:53,333 --> 01:03:56,836
That's a new school record, by the way.

1428
01:03:56,903 --> 01:03:58,238
Drumroll, please.

1429

-[cheering]
-I did it! Yes! Yes!

1433
01:04:08,181 --> 01:04:10,650
[Mr. Dimming] Congratulations to our team.

1434
01:04:10,717 --> 01:04:13,753
Go Spaulding Shooting Stars.

[students giggling, chattering]

1436
01:04:18,358 --> 01:04:19,726
[Mrs. Billups] Oh, there we go.

1437
01:04:21,194 --> 01:04:23,863
[Melody] Things about the world
I don't understand…

1438
01:04:23,930 --> 01:04:26,990
[Mrs. Billups] All right, Melody.
Here, let me put this on.

1439
01:04:26,199 --> 01:04:27,200
[Melody] …war…

1440
01:04:28,100 --> 01:04:29,703
[Mrs. Billups] Have a nice evening.

1441
01:04:29,769 --> 01:04:32,339
[Melody]
…why so many things have to be so hard…

1442
01:04:32,405 --> 01:04:34,374
Melody. Did you hear? I made Whiz Kids.

1443
01:04:34,441 --> 01:04:35,875
[Melody] …how telepathy works…

1444
01:04:35,942 --> 01:04:37,430
…I would get it, but I did.

1445
01:04:37,110 --> 01:04:38,678
And Claire and Jodie were playing…

1446
01:04:38,745 --> 01:04:39,946
[Melody] …pity…

1447
01:04:40,460 --> 01:04:41,470
It's kind of hilarious.

1448
01:04:41,114 --> 01:04:42,849
[Melody]
…why most people don't even see me…

would like mayonnaise.

1453
01:04:49,222 --> 01:04:51,858
"Yeah, guys. Like, I'm the smartest,
because, like, I made it,

1454
01:04:51,925 --> 01:04:54,861
and I had a really high score."
And we're like, "No one cares, Connor."

1455
01:04:54,928 --> 01:04:57,630
[Diane] Yeah,
the man owes you an explanation.

1456
01:04:57,130 --> 01:04:59,699
-[Mrs. V] You are damn right.
-[Chuck] Wait a minute. Hold on a second.

1457
01:04:59,766 --> 01:05:01,968
-[Mrs. V] Sorry for cursing.
-[Chuck] We don't know what happened.

1458
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:03,803
[Diane, Mrs. V] We do know what happened.

1459
01:05:03,903 --> 01:05:06,390
[Diane] Melody told Mrs. V
she got all the answers correct.

1460
01:05:06,106 --> 01:05:07,540
[Mrs. V] I'm telling you,
something stinks.

1461
01:05:07,607 --> 01:05:09,576
[Chuck] Penny, come eat your apples.

1462
01:05:09,642 --> 01:05:11,444
I'm gonna call this Dimming guy myself.

1463
01:05:11,544 --> 01:05:12,545
[Mrs. V] Oh, that's good.

1464
01:05:12,612 --> 01:05:15,281
[Chuck] Diane, I know you're upset,
but you were the one…

1465
01:05:15,382 --> 01:05:17,584
[Medi-Talker] Don't want quiz team.

1466
01:05:17,650 --> 01:05:19,119
Don't want.

1467
01:05:19,786 --> 01:05:22,589
Don't want quiz team.

1468

-Don't want. Don't want.
-We have to at least consider--

[Melody exclaiming]

1470
01:05:26,590 --> 01:05:27,894
[Medi-Talker] Stop. You stop.

01:05:27,961 --> 01:05:28,962
[Melody exclaiming]

1472
01:05:29,620 --> 01:05:30,764
[Medi-Talker] Will hurt Rose.

1473
01:05:31,498 --> 01:05:32,499
[Diane] Rose?

1474
01:05:32,599 --> 01:05:34,300
What does Rose have to do with this?

1475
01:05:34,401 --> 01:05:36,970
If you've made the team,
then you should be on the team.

1476
01:05:37,700 --> 01:05:38,905
[Mrs. V] You're not a quitter.
I won't let you be.

1477
01:05:38,972 --> 01:05:41,141
[Diane] Yeah, I'm gonna reach out
to Katherine for help.

1478
01:05:42,642 --> 01:05:46,279
This is Melody's answer sheet,
and this is his answer key.

1479
01:05:46,346 --> 01:05:49,115
Wait, she went through my desk.
You went through my desk?

1480
01:05:49,182 --> 01:05:51,251
-[Diane] Yes, she did. And thank you.
-[Mr. Dimming stammers]

-[Diane] Tell him what's on there.
-[Mrs. Antenucci] Uh. This is, um…

1482
01:05:54,454 --> 01:05:56,923
[Diane] You can say it.
Melody got every answer correct.

1483
01:05:56,990 --> 01:05:58,591
Every single one.

1484
01:05:58,658 --> 01:06:00,527
[Mr. Dimming scoffs] What?

1485
01:06:00,627 --> 01:06:02,362
No, that can't happen.

1486
01:06:02,462 --> 01:06:03,463
[Melody] Wait, what?

1487
01:06:03,530 --> 01:06:06,990
[Chuck] Just 'cause it's never happened
doesn't mean that it can't happen.

1488
01:06:06,166 --> 01:06:07,701
-[Melody] But it did happen.
-[Mr. Dimming] No!

1489
01:06:07,801 --> 01:06:08,868
Teachers cannot speak like this.

1490
01:06:08,968 --> 01:06:11,805
[Medi-Talker] I didn't guess one time.

1491
01:06:11,871 --> 01:06:13,773
[Diane] I know you didn't, sweetheart.

1492
01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:16,443
[Mrs. Gardner]
I think I see what's going on here.

1493
01:06:16,509 --> 01:06:18,345
-Uh, may I?
-Yeah, of course.

1494
01:06:18,878 --> 01:06:20,313
[Mrs. Gardner sighs] Melody.

1495
01:06:21,348 --> 01:06:22,849
-This is important.
-Mm-hmm.

1496
01:06:22,949 --> 01:06:24,884
I need you to be honest.

1497
01:06:25,552 --> 01:06:27,687
Did your classroom aide
help you with those answers?

1498
01:06:27,787 --> 01:06:29,622
[Chuck] Sorry, what are you suggesting?

1499
01:06:29,689 --> 01:06:31,791
-It's just a question.
-[Melody coos]

1500
01:06:32,292 --> 01:06:37,630
Because maybe sometimes, uh,
you get torn between two answers,

1501
01:06:37,163 --> 01:06:41,835
A or B, but you see your aide's pen
hovering over one and not the other?

1502
01:06:41,901 --> 01:06:44,237
[Chuck] Oh,
that doesn't sound like just a question.

1503
01:06:44,337 --> 01:06:46,539
[Diane] Yeah, it's because
it's not a question. It's an accusation.

1504
01:06:46,639 --> 01:06:49,750
All right. Everyone,
let's just take a breath and calm down.

1505
01:06:49,175 --> 01:06:50,543
-[Medi-Talker] Mine.
-Yes.

1506
01:06:50,643 --> 01:06:51,845
[Medi-Talker] Answers. Mine.

1507
01:06:51,911 --> 01:06:53,513
-All right. Thank you.
-[Diane] Yes.

1508
01:06:53,580 --> 01:06:54,581
[Chuck] Sorry.

1509
01:06:55,682 --> 01:06:58,752
Uh, you know what? No, I'm not sorry.
You know what?

1510
01:06:58,852 --> 01:07:01,588
Mrs. Gardner, my daughter has integrity,

1511
01:07:02,355 --> 01:07:04,557
and I don't need a fancy degree
to see that.

1512
01:07:04,657 --> 01:07:06,693
My wife can see it. She can see it.

1513
01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:07,761
Why can't you?

1514
01:07:09,896 --> 01:07:12,432
If she says that she aced her test,
then she aced it.

1515
01:07:14,167 --> 01:07:16,236
And whatever you say, it doesn't matter.

1516
01:07:16,336 --> 01:07:18,400
I'm sorry. You can just--
You can forget it.

1517
01:07:18,710 --> 01:07:21,908
[Melody chuckling]

1518
01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:23,243
[Mrs. Antenucci] Is she okay?

1519
01:07:23,343 --> 01:07:25,445
-Yeah, she's fine.
-She's laughing.

1520
01:07:25,545 --> 01:07:28,381
The point is that Melody got
a perfect score.

1521
01:07:29,182 --> 01:07:31,751
So why isn't she on the Whiz Kids team?

1522
01:07:31,851 --> 01:07:33,620
-[Diane] Yeah.
-Uh…

1523
01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:35,622
I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation.

1524
01:07:35,722 --> 01:07:37,570
[Chuck] Well, let's hear it.

1525
01:07:38,910 --> 01:07:39,192
[Diane sighs]

1526
01:07:39,259 --> 01:07:41,610
Well, I mean-- [stammers]

1527
01:07:43,296 --> 01:07:46,132
Y-Y-You put these kids in my class.

1528
01:07:46,232 --> 01:07:47,634
I have no training for this.

1529
01:07:47,734 --> 01:07:49,269
Right? I have no expertise.

1530
01:07:49,369 --> 01:07:51,710
I don't know how to talk to your child.

1531
01:07:51,137 --> 01:07:53,473
I've never worked with someone
with her condition before.

1532
01:07:54,207 --> 01:07:58,144
I mean, I have no doubt
that Melody is a kind, nice girl. I just--

1533
01:07:58,244 --> 01:07:59,646
[Diane] She's not just nice.

1534
01:08:00,447 --> 01:08:01,614
She's bright.

1535
01:08:02,549 --> 01:08:03,883
She's capable.

1536
01:08:03,950 --> 01:08:07,921
Wallace. Please tell me
you have an explanation.

1537
01:08:07,987 --> 01:08:10,657
W-What do I have to explain?
This isn't a test.

1538
01:08:10,757 --> 01:08:11,891
It's not for grades.

1539
01:08:11,958 --> 01:08:13,126
It's not a class.

1540
01:08:13,226 --> 01:08:15,128
This is an extracurricular team.

1541
01:08:15,228 --> 01:08:17,797
I didn't think I needed to.
This doesn't happen. I--

1542
01:08:22,469 --> 01:08:24,504
I didn't grade her answer sheet.

1543
01:08:27,674 --> 01:08:28,842
That's what it's called.

1544
01:08:28,942 --> 01:08:32,178
-[Elena] That's the worst word.
-I didn't make the word.

1545
01:08:32,278 --> 01:08:35,415
[Rodney] I'm gonna be honest. Maybe it's
just a period on top of the line.

1546
01:08:35,482 --> 01:08:38,451
That's literally what it is. You don't
have to be so defensive about it.

1547
01:08:38,518 --> 01:08:40,754
All right, all right.
Whiz Kids, Whiz Kids, listen up. Please.

1548
01:08:40,820 --> 01:08:41,821
Sit down.

1549
01:08:41,921 --> 01:08:44,124
Jodie, Claire. Please.

1550
01:08:44,624 --> 01:08:46,626
Rodney, pizza out. Thank you.

1551
01:08:46,693 --> 01:08:48,128
Listen, eyes up front.

1552
01:08:49,262 --> 01:08:52,332
There has been a change
to the Whiz Kids roster.

1553
01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:56,436
Melody Brooks will join the team
for the competition.

1554
01:08:57,370 --> 01:08:58,204
[Claire scoffs] But Mr. Dimming…

1555
01:08:58,304 --> 01:09:00,940
[Mr. Dimming] Look,
Melody earned her place on the team

1556
01:09:01,700 --> 01:09:02,108
like the rest of you.

1557
01:09:02,175 --> 01:09:05,545
And if a mistake was made, it was mine.

1558
01:09:05,645 --> 01:09:06,646
My fault.

1559
01:09:06,713 --> 01:09:09,816
[Rodney] Mr. D, that makes no sense.
There's already four of us on the team.

1560
01:09:09,883 --> 01:09:12,152
You can't just remove somebody
for somebody else.

1561
01:09:12,218 --> 01:09:13,286
[Mrs. Antenucci] Rodney.

1562
01:09:13,787 --> 01:09:15,989
Rose Spencer will become
the first alternate.

1563
01:09:16,560 --> 01:09:18,291
[Rose] Why me?
I have put in so much time for this.

1564
01:09:18,358 --> 01:09:20,193
[Mr. Dimming]
You had the lowest tryout score, Rose.

1565
01:09:20,293 --> 01:09:23,290
[Mrs. Antenucci] Elena and Jodie
will still escort them to the tournament

1566
01:09:23,129 --> 01:09:25,231
and to Washington if we qualify.

1567
01:09:25,331 --> 01:09:26,466
Thank you very much.

1568
01:09:26,533 --> 01:09:27,534
Go Whiz Kids.

1569
01:09:28,635 --> 01:09:30,370
-[Rodney] Connor.
-[Connor] Geez.

1570
01:09:30,470 --> 01:09:32,806
I'd like to speak to you outside
right now.

1571
01:09:35,809 --> 01:09:36,810
[Mr. Dimming] Okay, everyone.

1572
01:09:36,876 --> 01:09:39,746
Uh, we've got a few weeks to regionals,
and we got a lot of work to do.

1573
01:09:39,846 --> 01:09:41,214
Let's, uh, gather round.

1574
01:09:42,549 --> 01:09:45,185
[Mrs. Antenucci]
I've seen all types of teachers.

1575
01:09:45,251 --> 01:09:47,253
Wallace Dimming is one of the good ones.

1576
01:09:47,754 --> 01:09:49,989
-He cares about his kids.
-Melody is his kid too.

1577
01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:51,491
You violated his trust.

1578
01:09:52,920 --> 01:09:53,993
You tarnished his reputation.

1579
01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:56,663
You cannot ask him
to welcome you back after this.

1580
01:09:56,730 --> 01:09:58,832
[scoffs] Fine.

1581
01:10:00,367 --> 01:10:03,203
But we both know
you never wanted my program to begin with.

1582
01:10:03,703 --> 01:10:06,940
I admire your idealism, Dr. Ray.

1583
01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:08,208
I really do.

1584
01:10:10,377 --> 01:10:12,178
But I have to work in the real world.

1585
01:10:12,245 --> 01:10:14,581
What world do you think Melody lives in?

1586
01:10:14,681 --> 01:10:16,783
When you're done here,
what do you think was gonna happen?

1587
01:10:17,450 --> 01:10:19,953
Those kids were always
gonna go back to special ed.

1588
01:10:20,854 --> 01:10:23,590
I can't afford to hire someone
to babysit them,

1589
01:10:23,690 --> 01:10:27,227
and even if I did, and it had all the
magical benefits that you seem to imagine,

1590
01:10:27,293 --> 01:10:28,294
what then?

1591
01:10:29,262 --> 01:10:31,631
More disabled kids
would move into my district.

1592
01:10:31,731 --> 01:10:33,800
-They need resources to support them too.
-[scoffs]

1593
01:10:33,900 --> 01:10:35,201
Did you ever think of that?

1594
01:10:37,804 --> 01:10:38,805
You know what?

1595
01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:41,741
Thank you.

1596
01:10:42,242 --> 01:10:44,944
You just helped me figure out
my thesis for my book.

1597
01:10:46,813 --> 01:10:48,748
Disabilities don't hold students back.

1598
01:10:49,949 --> 01:10:50,950
Schools do.

["Le triangle des Bermudes" playing]

1600
01:11:01,594 --> 01:11:03,897
[Melody]
People I think should marry each other:

1601
01:11:04,397 --> 01:11:05,965
Maria and Rodney,

1602
01:11:06,466 --> 01:11:08,268
Katherine and Matthew Perry,

1603
01:11:08,802 --> 01:11:10,170
Claire and Dr. Evil…

1604
01:11:10,270 --> 01:11:11,738
Stop playing with your food.

1605
01:11:11,805 --> 01:11:14,140
[Melody] …Mr. Dimming and nobody…

1606
01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:16,276
Whoa! So cool.

1607
01:11:16,343 --> 01:11:17,677
[Melody] …Connor and me.

1608
01:11:17,777 --> 01:11:18,978
[Rodney] Let me see it.

1609
01:11:19,790 --> 01:11:20,847
-I want one.
-[Rose] Me too.

1610
01:11:21,614 --> 01:11:24,951
[Melody] Even if Rose wasn't mad at me,
she still wouldn't sit with me.

1611
01:11:25,452 --> 01:11:29,890
Being special
usually means being separated.

1612
01:11:29,155 --> 01:11:31,791
-[Claire] I'm not sad. You're sad.
-[Jodie] Oh, my God.

1613
01:11:31,858 --> 01:11:32,859
You.

1614
01:11:32,959 --> 01:11:35,829
[Melody] At least I still get to sit
with the cool kids.

1615
01:11:43,436 --> 01:11:44,771
[Penny] Melly!

Time to get up, time to get up,
time to get up, sleepyhead.

1618
01:11:52,846 --> 01:11:55,849
I have a surprise for you.

[Melody gasps]

1620
01:11:57,283 --> 01:11:58,284
Do you like it?

1621
01:11:58,351 --> 01:12:00,387
-[Melody exclaims]
-Aw.

1622
01:12:00,487 --> 01:12:02,489
God, it's gonna be a good day.

1623
01:12:02,989 --> 01:12:04,891
I think this-- Yeah, this is it.

1624
01:12:06,159 --> 01:12:09,863
Oh, man. Look how cool this is.

1625
01:12:10,563 --> 01:12:12,232
This is so cool.

1626
01:12:12,332 --> 01:12:13,333
Oh, yeah!

01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:16,536
[Mr. Dimming] All of our hard work
is leading up to this-this match.

1628
01:12:16,636 --> 01:12:19,390
-This event. Stay present. Stay focused.
-[Chuck] You okay?

1629
01:12:19,139 --> 01:12:21,808
Hey, remember
this is what you worked for, okay.

1630
01:12:21,875 --> 01:12:24,344
You got this. All right? Yeah.

1631
01:12:24,411 --> 01:12:26,460
-[Paul] Melody Brooks?
-[Diane] Yeah, hi.

1632
01:12:26,146 --> 01:12:28,415
How's it going? My name is Paul.
I'm the stage manager here.

1633
01:12:28,515 --> 01:12:30,517
-[Diane] Hi, Paul.
-[Paul] Can I steal you just for a second

1634
01:12:30,583 --> 01:12:32,485
so I can show you the set
and the stage and everything?

1635
01:12:32,552 --> 01:12:35,655
-[Diane] Okay, she's got this.
-[Paul] All right, you ready? Let's roll.

1636
01:12:36,222 --> 01:12:37,223
This is the set.

1637
01:12:37,323 --> 01:12:40,360
This is--
This is where your team will be standing.

1638
01:12:40,427 --> 01:12:43,196
And, uh, that's your podium
at the very end there,

1639
01:12:43,263 --> 01:12:44,864
if you want to go check her out.

1640
01:12:44,931 --> 01:12:46,366
We adjusted the height.

1641
01:12:46,433 --> 01:12:48,535
It's gonna line up with your chair
a little bit easier.

1642
01:12:48,601 --> 01:12:52,380
And it's pretty simple, I mean,
there's the, you know, buttons.

1643
01:12:52,105 --> 01:12:57,100
And ask you a question, you hit whatever
button is lined up with the answer.

1644
01:12:57,770 --> 01:12:58,411
A, B, C or D.

1645
01:12:59,450 --> 01:13:01,915
Um, but also
I-I think you're gonna do great.

1646
01:13:02,150 --> 01:13:04,284
Um, and between you and me,

1647
01:13:04,384 --> 01:13:07,420
even though I'm supposed to be neutral
and best team wins,

1648
01:13:07,520 --> 01:13:08,588
knock their socks off.

1649
01:13:08,688 --> 01:13:10,900
Okay, mop the floor with them.

1650
01:13:10,190 --> 01:13:12,920
I know you got it in you, okay?

1651

-[Claire] Looks like my grandma.
-[Rose] Doesn't matter.

1658
01:13:28,408 --> 01:13:30,310
[Claire] I'm gonna tell my grandma
you said that.

1659
01:13:30,410 --> 01:13:31,478
[Rose] No. [chuckling] No.

[Medi-Talker] I'm sorry.

1664
01:13:39,152 --> 01:13:40,787
[Rose] It's fine. Don't worry about it.

1665
01:13:40,887 --> 01:13:44,900

because my parents promised me an iPod.

please stay in the backstage area?

01:14:01,441 --> 01:14:02,976
Yeah, sure. Go to the bathroom.

01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:05,178
-Uh, we're gonna, uh, go to the bathroom.
-[Chuck] Sure.

1673
01:14:05,278 --> 01:14:08,114
-Can you keep an eye on her? Okay.
-Yeah, I got it. Come on. Oh, boy.

[Claire] 'Cause I like it.

1675
01:14:09,916 --> 01:14:12,919
I just want to know if I can, like,
keep it on one side or the other one.

It's hard sometimes, huh?

1685
01:14:45,518 --> 01:14:46,519
Hmm.

1686
01:14:47,153 --> 01:14:49,956
Yeah. Mad.

1687
01:14:51,558 --> 01:14:52,726
Yeah, it makes you mad.

1688
01:14:54,561 --> 01:14:57,163
"Feel. Problem."

1689
01:14:58,531 --> 01:14:59,899
Like a problem?

1690
01:15:00,834 --> 01:15:02,502
-Mmm. [chuckles]
-[Diane] For who?

[Medi-Talker] I love you too.

01:15:27,527 --> 01:15:28,595
[Diane] Say it again.

1697
01:15:28,695 --> 01:15:29,696
Come on.

1698
01:15:31,698 --> 01:15:33,867

[Melody sighs]

1700
01:15:41,341 --> 01:15:44,244
[Diane kisses] I love you so much.

1701
01:15:50,830 --> 01:15:51,217
Say it again.

1702
01:15:51,718 --> 01:15:53,386
Go on. Say it one more time.

1703

Len Kingsley.

1709
01:16:13,873 --> 01:16:16,710
After the preliminary rounds,
only two teams remain.

1710
01:16:16,776 --> 01:16:18,778
And it all comes down to this.

1711
01:16:18,878 --> 01:16:21,481
Twenty-five questions. Four points apiece.

1712

1715
01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:29,656
Right now, one of these two teams
will win the chance

1716

1748
01:17:55,909 --> 01:17:57,210
[Len] Next question.

1749
01:17:57,310 --> 01:18:00,647
What does the word "oxymoron" mean?

1750
01:18:00,714 --> 01:18:02,480
I don't know that one.

1751

C, a word that phonetically
imitates sound?

1754
01:18:08,755 --> 01:18:11,424
Or D, an ignorant literary character?

The answer, of course, is B, Pablo Neruda.

What was that, dear?

1777

Answer's D, megalodon.

[Len] The answer is B, Peru.

1788
01:19:19,826 --> 01:19:20,960
Oh! Yeah.

1789
01:19:21,610 --> 01:19:22,620
Yes!

1790
01:19:25,732 --> 01:19:28,101
[Len chuckles] Wow. Wow.

1791
01:19:28,635 --> 01:19:31,971
Two-point difference,

C, e pluribus unum?

1797
01:19:47,487 --> 01:19:50,256
Or D, pro forma?

1798
01:19:52,258 --> 01:19:53,860

-We in? We in?
-[bell dings]

1801
01:20:06,306 --> 01:20:07,440
And the answer is…

1802
01:20:09,642 --> 01:20:12,178
-A, prima facie.
-[audience applauding, cheering]

1803
01:20:12,846 --> 01:20:14,140
[Len] Oh, wow.

1804
01:20:14,114 --> 01:20:17,170
With an un-- unusual turn of events,

1805
01:20:17,117 --> 01:20:21,788
the score between our two finalists
is tied at 83,

1806
01:20:21,855 --> 01:20:24,691
but there can only be one winner
which means…

1807
01:20:25,392 --> 01:20:26,993
-One moment, one mo--
-[audience laughs]

1808
01:20:27,600 --> 01:20:28,695
[chuckles] Just one moment. Yes?

01:20:28,795 --> 01:20:30,530
[audience murmuring]

1810
01:20:32,198 --> 01:20:33,299
[Len] All righty.

1811
01:20:33,366 --> 01:20:38,538
Which means we will have
what the Whiz Kids call

1812
01:20:38,638 --> 01:20:40,473
a lightning round.

1813

[thunderclap sound effect plays]

1814
01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:44,511
[Len] Players, you have 30 seconds
to choose a member

1815
01:20:44,577 --> 01:20:47,747
to represent your team
in a head-to-head matchup.

1816
01:20:47,847 --> 01:20:51,584
The first one to get the question wrong,
their team loses.

1817
01:20:51,685 --> 01:20:55,655
The other team,
well, they're off to the nationals. Go.

-[crew member mutters] Yes.
-Yeah, shh. Quiet.

1822
01:21:03,630 --> 01:21:05,331
Ten thousand dollars on the line,
and you're so sure of yourself.

1823
01:21:05,398 --> 01:21:07,667
[contestants clamoring]

1824
01:21:07,734 --> 01:21:09,436
Connor had the highest score.
Mr. Dimming said--

1825
01:21:09,536 --> 01:21:10,870
No, I didn't. [clears throat]

1826
01:21:10,937 --> 01:21:12,439
[Claire] Why are you coughing like that?

1827
01:21:12,539 --> 01:21:14,400
Melody had the highest score.

1828
01:21:14,107 --> 01:21:17,100
[Rodney] I think he's got a point.
She's barely even gotten a question wrong.

1829
01:21:17,770 --> 01:21:18,780
[Len] Ten seconds.

1830
01:21:18,178 --> 01:21:21,414
If she goes, we're gonna look like--
We're gonna look funny, okay?

1831
01:21:21,514 --> 01:21:23,490
[Connor] Holy crap, Claire.

1832
01:21:23,116 --> 01:21:25,180
How funny are we gonna look
if we're the losers?

1833
01:21:25,850 --> 01:21:27,554
-Ten seconds and we're arguing. Just vote.
-[Rodney] Then it's Melody.

1834
01:21:27,620 --> 01:21:30,560
Time's up! Teams, send up your contenders.

[Paul]
We're live in five, four, three, two…

1837
01:21:35,462 --> 01:21:36,463
[Len] Yeah!

1838
01:21:36,563 --> 01:21:38,932
And we're back with the lightning round.

1839
01:21:39,632 --> 01:21:42,535
We have Trevor
from Perry Valley Elementary

1840
01:21:42,602 --> 01:21:44,404
and Melody from Spaulding Elementary.

1841
01:21:44,471 --> 01:21:45,538
Yeah!

1842
01:21:45,605 --> 01:21:47,400
[Chuck] Oh! Oh! Oh!

1843
01:21:47,107 --> 01:21:48,875
-Oh! [laughs]
-[screams]

1844
01:21:48,942 --> 01:21:50,777
Melody, Trevor, are you ready?

1845
01:21:50,877 --> 01:21:52,212
Ready, Mr. Kingsley.

1846
01:21:52,712 --> 01:21:53,980
Quiet, please.

1847
01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:59,486
Remember, kids, the first team that gets
a question wrong, they lose.

1848
01:21:59,586 --> 01:22:01,721
[inhales sharply] First question.

1849
01:22:03,490 --> 01:22:05,425
What is hexadactylism?

1850
01:22:05,492 --> 01:22:06,893
A, double vision?

1851
01:22:06,960 --> 01:22:08,261
[Len] B, left-handedness?

1852
01:22:08,328 --> 01:22:10,463
C, having six appendages
on a hand or foot?

1853
01:22:10,563 --> 01:22:13,299
Or D, a form of cancer?

1854
01:22:16,136 --> 01:22:17,504
[bell chimes]

1855
01:22:18,271 --> 01:22:19,272
[bell chimes]

1856
01:22:19,973 --> 01:22:22,275
Having six appendages is correct.

1857

If I was stuck making

that the kids don't feel safe.

That you just can't learn.

But even if that were true,

1928
