"I like clipper ships
because they are fast."
:47:04
"Clipper ships sail the ocean."
:47:07
"Clipper ships never sail
on rivers or lakes."
:47:09
"Clipper ships have lots of sails
and are made out of wood."
:47:17
OK. Who's next?
:47:24
I want to write a book about Fred...
:47:27
...about his formative experiences.
:47:31
His life story, if you will.
:47:33
Well... Gonna be a short book.
:47:38
Ms Tate, over the years, I've met
many math and music prodigies...
:47:42
...but never one with
Fred's kind of intuition...
:47:46
...his, uh...
:47:48
...his kind of, um, sensitivity.
:47:53
This summer, I've been asked
to teach a class at Fieldhurst...
:47:57
...and I'd like to use that time
to really observe Fred.
:48:01
He would take a class and, in return,
I would waive his tuition at the Institute...
:48:06
...for as long as he attends.
:48:11
Wait. Wait a minute.
:48:14
- You wanna take Fred to college?
- Just for the summer.
:48:19
Why can't you just wait and,
like, observe him in the fall?
:48:23
I wouldn't have time.
I'd be busy running the Institute.
:48:26
Well. As it happens, we already got plans.
:48:29
Me and a friend got good jobs dancing
at this hotel in Orlando for the summer.
:48:33
The place is really nice.
It's got a big pool and everything.
:48:38
- A pool?
- Yeah, so that's that.
:48:41
Ms Tate, Fred is not a leper.
:48:44
Intelligence is not a disease
that you have to protect him from.
:48:48
He's blessed, but he's certainly not alone.
:48:50
There are many gifted children out there.
:48:53
Yeah? How many of 'em
are blessed with ulcers, huh?
:48:58
How many of them go to bed worrying
about the ozone layer, the rain forest...
