1. Distinguished guests, friends,
Copy !req
2. members of the press...
Copy !req
3. when the Fish Defense League
told me
Copy !req
4. that the dam on our property
Copy !req
5. was blocking the endangered
silverback trout
Copy !req
6. from its natural breeding
grounds, I was glad to help.
Copy !req
7. And so today,
Copy !req
8. we are going to blow up
this evil dam.
Copy !req
9. Afterwards, we will have
a nice, light lunch
Copy !req
10. provided by the Grotto,
Copy !req
11. a friend of fish
and the business traveler.
Copy !req
12. Here we go!
Copy !req
13. That's weird.
Copy !req
14. From here, the dynamite looks
Copy !req
15. a lot like
a picnic cooler.
Copy !req
16. I am starting to think
Copy !req
17. that that is
a picnic cooler.
Copy !req
18. We'd like to wish
a happy birthday
Copy !req
19. to Mary who is six years old.
Copy !req
20. Mom and Dad let Dewey pick
where we went to dinner tonight.
Copy !req
21. I can't decide if it's
Copy !req
22. supposed to be
a punishment for us
Copy !req
23. or a treat for him.
Copy !req
24. Probably a little bit of both.
Copy !req
25. How's the chicken
supposed to know you like her
Copy !req
26. if you don't
say anything?
Copy !req
27. Boys! Food's here!
Copy !req
28. So, Dewey, are you having
a good time?
Copy !req
29. I actually am.
Copy !req
30. Oh, wait.
Copy !req
31. Why?
Copy !req
32. He's dying!
Copy !req
33. We have to make sure you come up
with a really good wish.
Copy !req
34. Reese, he isn't dying.
Copy !req
35. If he were dying,
we'd at least spring
for Red Lobster.
Copy !req
36. Mrs. Welsh, your counselor,
Copy !req
37. said that she'd like
you to take an I.Q. test.
Copy !req
38. What?
Malcolm, do not poison
your brother.
Copy !req
39. He is an entirely different
person than you are and
Copy !req
40. he is not automatically going
to have the same experience!
Copy !req
41. It's just a little test, honey.
Copy !req
42. Mom, don't do this.
Copy !req
43. I lost all my friends
Copy !req
44. when I went
into the Krelboyne class.
Copy !req
45. Everyone hated us!
Copy !req
46. You had every advantage
in that class.
Copy !req
47. You had computers,
Copy !req
48. an electron microscope,
a seismograph...
Copy !req
49. Which is why they hated us!
Copy !req
50. Malcolm, we all know
there's something weird
Copy !req
51. going on in that boy's brain
and I, for one...
Copy !req
52. What the...?
Copy !req
53. Excuse me.
Copy !req
54. Craig?
Oh, hi, Hal.
Copy !req
55. What're you doing?
Copy !req
56. Just protecting my high score.
Copy !req
57. It's cheaper
than a gym.
Copy !req
58. And no shower bullies.
Copy !req
59. You're great.
Copy !req
60. Well, I'm kind of
a legend around here.
Copy !req
61. You're staying out
of the ball pit,
right, Feldspar?
Copy !req
62. Yes, sir. You were
quite clear on that.
Copy !req
63. Hey, hop on up, Hal.
It's a blast.
Copy !req
64. Beat it, Davey.
Copy !req
65. Oh, I don't know...
Copy !req
66. Come on. It's easy.
Just watch the screen,
Copy !req
67. put your feet where it says.
Copy !req
68. Let's try it.
Copy !req
69. Hey, this is fun.
Copy !req
70. Really fun!
Copy !req
71. Oh, God.
Copy !req
72. Just got him
Copy !req
73. to stop
the ice sculpting.
Copy !req
74. Well, it looks like
it's going to be
just you and me
Copy !req
75. for the next month,
sweetie.
Copy !req
76. So the school thinks
I might be a genius, too?
Copy !req
77. But I'm not
a whiny loudmouth
Copy !req
78. who complains
about everything.
Copy !req
79. Malcolm's a genius,
and now Dewey's a genius?
Copy !req
80. I guess it's only
a matter of time
Copy !req
81. 'till we find out
that I'm a genius.
Copy !req
82. I wonder what kind of genius
I am.
Copy !req
83. 15 times 32 is 3,989.
Copy !req
84. It's 480.
Copy !req
85. Okay, so I'm not Rain Man,
big deal.
Copy !req
86. Some day they'll invent
a machine
Copy !req
87. that does that stuff
for you, anyway.
Copy !req
88. Okay, question 17 was,
Copy !req
89. "Bee is to hive as
A) fish is to pond,
Copy !req
90. "B) bear is to den
Copy !req
91. or C) coral is to reef?"
Copy !req
92. That's what it was,
right?
Copy !req
93. How should... I know?
Copy !req
94. You took the same test
I did.
Copy !req
95. Four... years ago.
Copy !req
96. How do you... remember?
Copy !req
97. I just do.
Copy !req
98. And it's a good thing,
because it's the only way
Copy !req
99. we can keep Dewey out
of the Krelboyne class.
Copy !req
100. Why can't...
he just... tank it?
Copy !req
101. The tests are designed
to catch that.
Copy !req
102. We have to give exactly
the same answers
Copy !req
103. a real dumb person
would give.
Copy !req
104. How do we... do that?
Copy !req
105. Guys, guys!
I've been trying to figure out
Copy !req
106. what kind of genius I am,
Copy !req
107. and I finally realized,
I should go to the library!
Copy !req
108. And you know what?
Copy !req
109. You can get Internet porn there
Copy !req
110. and the librarians can't do
anything about it!
Copy !req
111. God, I love
Copy !req
112. this country.
Hey, Mom!
Copy !req
113. I'm doing it!
Copy !req
114. And it only took
all my lunch breaks
Copy !req
115. and $200 worth of quarters!
Copy !req
116. Can't one of you
Copy !req
117. have a heart attack
so the rest of us can play?
Copy !req
118. In a second.
Copy !req
119. Show time!
Copy !req
120. Yes!
Copy !req
121. I think we're finally ready.
Copy !req
122. I didn't want to say anything
until I was sure,
Copy !req
123. but I signed us up
for the weekly tournament.
Copy !req
124. No, it's too soon.
Copy !req
125. Hal, you don't work
this hard
Copy !req
126. just to Jump, Jump Dance
alone in your room.
Copy !req
127. Besides, someone has
to teach Hayley and Kylie
Copy !req
128. not to be so stuck up
just because they think
they're so great.
Copy !req
129. You can't enter
the tournament.
Copy !req
130. You're going to look
like idiots.
Copy !req
131. We're not done
rehearsing.
Copy !req
132. We'll be a lot
better by then.
Copy !req
133. No, you're going
to look like idiots
Copy !req
134. because it's
a contest for kids.
Copy !req
135. It doesn't say that
anywhere.
Copy !req
136. I read the rules
three times.
Copy !req
137. And we're under
the weight limit.
Copy !req
138. You can call
the manufacturer.
Copy !req
139. If you give these answers
Copy !req
140. exactly the way
they're written,
Copy !req
141. you'll stay out
of the Krelboyne class.
Copy !req
142. Maybe I'd like
the Krelboyne class.
Copy !req
143. I hear they just
got a robot parrot
Copy !req
144. that speaks 20 languages.
Copy !req
145. Dewey, you have to trust me.
Copy !req
146. I'm the good brother.
Copy !req
147. I'm the one
who cares about you.
Copy !req
148. You beat me up
and make fun of me.
Copy !req
149. Only when
you're being annoying.
Copy !req
150. Dewey, I'm serious.
Copy !req
151. How can I make you
understand?
Copy !req
152. The coolest person
in the class... was me.
Copy !req
153. Okay, I'll do it.
Copy !req
154. You're sure...
this'll work?
Copy !req
155. Hey, if there's
one thing I know,
Copy !req
156. Reese's answers will not get him
into the Krelboyne class.
Copy !req
157. I'm emotionally disturbed?
Copy !req
158. Oh, we don't use those terms.
Copy !req
159. This isn't about labeling.
Copy !req
160. A blue folder with
an asterisk next to your name
Copy !req
161. just means that you get
a little more special help
than other kids.
Copy !req
162. Hey, Bill.
Copy !req
163. This one's named Dewey.
Copy !req
164. Dewey, Dewey, Dewey.
Copy !req
165. Okay.
Copy !req
166. There's no yelling,
no kicking,
Copy !req
167. no hitting, no physical touching
of any kind.
Copy !req
168. You are allowed to cry,
if you do it quietly.
Copy !req
169. Find a seat
wherever you can.
Copy !req
170. Vroom, vroom.
Copy !req
171. Hey, could you
scratch my nose?
Copy !req
172. What's that?
Copy !req
173. Oh.
Copy !req
174. You can ignore the sign.
Copy !req
175. They put you
in with the Buseys?
Copy !req
176. Yeah, it's real interesting.
Copy !req
177. Today, we learned about
our greatest enemies,
Copy !req
178. Mr. Matches
and Mr. Talk-Out-Of-Turn.
Copy !req
179. Oh, and I also got
to see a crane
Copy !req
180. lower a flight simulator
into the Krelboyne class.
Copy !req
181. Oh, my God!
Does Mom know?
Copy !req
182. You're still alive, so no.
Copy !req
183. I'm so sorry.
I swear I'll fix this.
Copy !req
184. Just don't tell Mom.
Copy !req
185. Please, please don't tell Mom.
Copy !req
186. You know, I like the begging,
but it needs something.
Copy !req
187. Better, but... still not enough.
Copy !req
188. Dewey, this is my paycheck.
Copy !req
189. There's $98.00 here.
Copy !req
190. I will give you
everything I make
Copy !req
191. until you get
out of that class.
Copy !req
192. Hi, boys.
Hey.
Copy !req
193. Oh, Dewey, did
Mrs. Welsh tell you
Copy !req
194. when they'd get
your test results?
Copy !req
195. Oh, I got 'em.
Copy !req
196. And he's in the Krelboyne class,
Copy !req
197. just like you wanted.
Copy !req
198. I hope you're happy.
Copy !req
199. You've ruined his life!
Copy !req
200. Come on, Dewey.
Copy !req
201. Well, I'm not an escape artist.
Copy !req
202. Okay. Now that Chad
has apologized
Copy !req
203. to Lester, Max, Zoe, Phoebe,
Garth, Michelle,
Copy !req
204. and Linda,
Copy !req
205. we can now try,
once again,
Copy !req
206. to read Polar Express
Copy !req
207. in as normal a way as we
can possibly manage.
Copy !req
208. Hanson?
Copy !req
209. Indoor muffler!
Copy !req
210. Okay, I want you
to open this book
Copy !req
211. to page seven and read.
Copy !req
212. No motorcycle.
Copy !req
213. Just say exactly
what's on the page.
Copy !req
214. No motorcycle.
Copy !req
215. No motorcycle.
Copy !req
216. No motorcycle.
Copy !req
217. No motorcycle.
Copy !req
218. Okay, okay.
That's enough reading.
Copy !req
219. Why don't we try
some more quiet time?
Copy !req
220. Why did you do that?
Copy !req
221. When did you read that book?
Copy !req
222. Three years ago.
Copy !req
223. Me, too. All of us did.
Copy !req
224. They treat us like we're
stupid instead of just weird.
Copy !req
225. This place is slowly killing me.
Copy !req
226. Oh, look.
We made it to recess.
Copy !req
227. Jeffy, you're not an arm's
length from Carrie.
Copy !req
228. Why don't we have recess
with the other kids?
Copy !req
229. We make them too sad.
Copy !req
230. Mrs. Welsh?
May I help you?
Copy !req
231. I'm Malcolm, Dewey's brother.
Copy !req
232. I have to talk to you
about the test Dewey took.
Copy !req
233. I'm afraid I can only discuss
that with his parents.
Copy !req
234. See, that's just it.
Copy !req
235. I can get in a lot of trouble
for coming here,
Copy !req
236. but I have to tell you why his
test came out the way it did.
Copy !req
237. Our mom has a substance
abuse problem,
Copy !req
238. and she had a huge relapse
the morning he took the test.
Copy !req
239. Oh, my God.
Copy !req
240. Yeah, which is why she can't
find out I came here.
Copy !req
241. I don't want to say
she's dangerous
Copy !req
242. because she's, you know, my mom,
and I love her.
Copy !req
243. Wow. Well, I can tell you
really care about your family.
Copy !req
244. It's been really hard.
Copy !req
245. Let's see what
I can do. Okay?
Copy !req
246. And I don't think we have to
bother your mom with this.
Copy !req
247. Thanks.
Copy !req
248. I'll do everything
through your dad.
Copy !req
249. Thanks for the heads up.
Copy !req
250. Wow. Ten messages
from Dewey's counselor.
Copy !req
251. Maybe I should...
Copy !req
252. Practice so we can win
this thing?
Copy !req
253. Right.
Copy !req
254. Five, six, seven, eight!
Copy !req
255. One, two, three,
and four
Copy !req
256. and boogie shake,
boogie shake,
Copy !req
257. and slide and slide,
Copy !req
258. These jazz shoes have really
helped my kick turns.
Copy !req
259. Totally worth
150 bucks.
Copy !req
260. Hal?
Copy !req
261. Uh-oh.
Here comes Yoko.
Copy !req
262. It's 5:00
in the morning.
Copy !req
263. You've been up all night.
Copy !req
264. Honey, I know you think
this is silly
Copy !req
265. and that I've just gone off
the deep end again,
Copy !req
266. but this isn't like
the other times.
Copy !req
267. I have a gift, Lois,
Copy !req
268. and it would be wrong for me
to turn my back on that.
Copy !req
269. Right. I see we've
entered phase two.
Copy !req
270. Which is fine, as long
as you follow the rules.
Copy !req
271. You have to go
to work.
Copy !req
272. You have to eat.
Copy !req
273. You cannot involve
the children.
Copy !req
274. And you're freezing
the joint account.
Copy !req
275. Did it last week.
Copy !req
276. Good night, Fred.
Ginger.
Copy !req
277. I thought it was Fred
and Barney.
Copy !req
278. Take your tissue and carefully
twist it to make a flower.
Copy !req
279. Then you make a bouquet
Copy !req
280. by carefully stacking them.
Copy !req
281. Go slow. This isn't a race.
Copy !req
282. Why do all our art projects
use tissues?
Copy !req
283. Because tissues are soft
and nontoxic.
Copy !req
284. This way no one gets hurt,
and no one sues the school.
Copy !req
285. This program can't handle
another lawsuit, Dewey.
Copy !req
286. I only get paid for four days
a week as it is.
Copy !req
287. But it's ridiculous.
Copy !req
288. We have to do math
without pencils.
Copy !req
289. We have to do history
without hard-cover books.
Copy !req
290. Can't we at least
have some art supplies?
Copy !req
291. Art supplies mean scissors.
Theymean paste.
Copy !req
292. These children stab
with scissors.
Copy !req
293. They eat paste.
Copy !req
294. Some of them tried
to eat scissors.
Copy !req
295. This one tried
to stab with paste.
Copy !req
296. Teachers are supposed
to help their students.
Copy !req
297. Maybe you wouldn't be so unhappy
all the time
Copy !req
298. if you tried a little harder.
Copy !req
299. Look, Dewey, you're not going
to make it
Copy !req
300. through the year
with that attitude.
Copy !req
301. You just have to take
all your hopes and dreams
Copy !req
302. and let them die.
Copy !req
303. Then maybe you won't end up
staring at a clock
Copy !req
304. at 4:00 in the morning wishing
you had kissed more ass
Copy !req
305. in grad school.
Copy !req
306. Thanks for trying.
Copy !req
307. I swear, if you can get
the paste,
Copy !req
308. I'll stab him for you.
Copy !req
309. and then he was chopped up
and eaten by wolves,
Copy !req
310. because that's what happens
to babies who pull hair.
Copy !req
311. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
312. Malcolm, who is it?
Don't worry.
Copy !req
313. I have a master's degree
in conflict resolution.
Copy !req
314. Can I help you?
I'm Mrs. Welsh,
Dewey's counselor.
Copy !req
315. First of all,
let me just tell you
Copy !req
316. how much I admire
your courage.
Copy !req
317. Thank you.
Copy !req
318. Your son Malcolm
came to see me...
Copy !req
319. No, I didn't!
Copy !req
320. Let me do what I do.
Copy !req
321. He was worried
that Dewey
Copy !req
322. had been placed
in the wrong class.
Copy !req
323. Malcolm, how dare you?
Copy !req
324. You made your feelings
very clear,
Copy !req
325. but you had no right
to do something like that!
Copy !req
326. Well, the thing is I did look
through Dewey's records,
Copy !req
327. and his test results
don't match up
Copy !req
328. with his classroom
performance.
Copy !req
329. There may be grounds
to retest him.
Copy !req
330. Oh, no. Absolutely not!
Copy !req
331. You are not going
to take this away from my son.
Copy !req
332. He deserves to be in that class.
Copy !req
333. He needs to be in that class.
Copy !req
334. And don't think I won't
fight you on this.
Copy !req
335. I didn't come here
to upset you.
Copy !req
336. The last thing that
anyone wants is for you
Copy !req
337. to feel out of control.
Copy !req
338. Oh, you'll see out of control
Copy !req
339. if you don't leave Dewey
where he belongs.
Copy !req
340. Believe me, you don't want
to mess with this family.
Copy !req
341. Well, maybe we'll talk about it
in a month or so
Copy !req
342. when you're feeling stronger.
Copy !req
343. I'll work around
any of your meetings.
Copy !req
344. I can't believe
the way that woman
talked to you!
Copy !req
345. I mean, sure,
I unsuccessfully
tried to keep Dewey out
Copy !req
346. of the Krelboyne class,
Copy !req
347. but she had no right
to do that!
Copy !req
348. Ah, put a cork in it.
Copy !req
349. And don't think
you're not in trouble
Copy !req
350. just because
your little plan didn't work.
Copy !req
351. Oh, that was just great.
Which kids are yours?
Copy !req
352. Those two.
Copy !req
353. You guys are totally going
to be my new save screen.
Copy !req
354. Don't let it
get to you, Hal.
Copy !req
355. Soon, they're going
to feel as stupid
Copy !req
356. as they think we look.
Copy !req
357. Let's rock.
Yeah.
Copy !req
358. Hey, I thought
we're supposed
Copy !req
359. to have the same costume.
Copy !req
360. They're almost the same.
Copy !req
361. Whoa!
Copy !req
362. Ow! Ow!
Copy !req
363. My ankle's twisted.
Copy !req
364. Once again,
I fly too close to the sun.
Copy !req
365. But we have to dance.
Copy !req
366. I can't, Hal.
But you have to go on.
Copy !req
367. We've worked too long
and too hard to stop now.
Copy !req
368. Go out there and win that coupon
for two free medium pizzas
Copy !req
369. for both of us.
Copy !req
370. I know we've had
our disagreements
over the amount
Copy !req
371. of time I spent doing this,
Copy !req
372. but I don't think
there's anyone else
Copy !req
373. I could do this with.
Copy !req
374. What do you say?
Copy !req
375. Oh, Hal...
Copy !req
376. I get the pizzas.
Copy !req
377. Okay.
Copy !req
378. Much applause
Copy !req
379. to your sparkling feet!
Copy !req
380. Here comes the pencil turn.
I can't watch.
Copy !req
381. On any other man
that would look
ridiculous.
Copy !req
382. We've lost him, Lois.
Copy !req
383. He belongs
to everyone now.
Copy !req
384. Mr. Sheridan,
why do motorcycles
sound different
Copy !req
385. when they're coming
than when they're
going away?
Copy !req
386. Hanson, I'm trying
to eat my lunch.
Copy !req
387. By the time
I explained it to you,
Copy !req
388. you would have forgotten
the question anyway.
Copy !req
389. I think my brother Malcolm
told me about that last summer.
Copy !req
390. "It's called the Doppler Effect,
Dewey.
Copy !req
391. "Both sound and light travel
at a constant speed,
Copy !req
392. "but their wavelengths get
shorter or longer
Copy !req
393. "depending on whether they're
moving towards you
Copy !req
394. "or away from you.
Copy !req
395. Now put some pants on,
you little freak."
Copy !req
396. My imaginary friends are right!
Copy !req
397. I am a genius!
Copy !req
398. So basically,
what it means
Copy !req
399. is that the sound waves
Copy !req
400. from a motorcycle move away
Copy !req
401. from it at the same speed
in all directions.
Copy !req
402. But if it's coming
towards you,
Copy !req
403. then the sound waves
get stacked closer
Copy !req
404. and closer together,
Copy !req
405. so the frequency goes up
and the sound gets higher.
Copy !req
406. Do you understand?
Copy !req
407. Yeah, I do.
Copy !req
408. Oh, my God!
Copy !req
409. I learned something.
Copy !req
410. I learned something!
Copy !req
411. I learned something!
I learned something!
Copy !req
412. I learned something!
Hanson...
Copy !req
413. I learned something!
Copy !req
414. Maybe you shouldn't learn things
Copy !req
415. if you're going
to be so disruptive.
Copy !req
416. Now sit down and be quiet.
Copy !req
417. Everyone who hates this,
follow me.
Copy !req
418. What are you doing?
Copy !req
419. Please, children, calm down!
Copy !req
420. Remember, quiet minds
are happy minds!
Copy !req
421. Let's say it together!
Copy !req
422. Quiet minds are happy minds!
Copy !req
423. Quiet minds are...
Copy !req
424. I'm so glad that contest
is finally behind you.
Copy !req
425. Yeah.
Copy !req
426. You know, now that
that's out of
your system,
Copy !req
427. I could sure use
a little more help with Jamie.
Copy !req
428. He was up all
night last night.
Copy !req
429. So if you wouldn't mind
Copy !req
430. taking the first shift
tonight, I...
Copy !req
431. Nod! Nod!
Copy !req
432. Agree! She's buying it!
Copy !req
433. Okay, Dewey,
I have a new,
much better plan.
Copy !req
434. I broke into
the principal's office
Copy !req
435. and created a second,
fictional Dewey,
Copy !req
436. who lives in another district.
Copy !req
437. I still have to hack
into the school mainframe,
Copy !req
438. but all you have to do
Copy !req
439. is pretend you're dead
for two days.
Copy !req
440. Then we're back in business.
Copy !req
441. That sounds great.
Copy !req
442. Mom, Malcolm gave me the wrong
Copy !req
443. answers to the Krelboyne test.
Copy !req
444. I've been in the emotionally
disturbed class for two weeks.
Copy !req
445. Well, I'm sure you two
have a lot to talk about.
Copy !req
446. Dewey, Dewey, guess what?
Copy !req
447. I finally figured out
what kind of genius I am.
Copy !req
448. There it was,
just staring me in the face.
Copy !req
449. Aw, come on, Dewey,
please stay awake.
Copy !req
450. I've got so much to show you.
