Mr. Dawson, it's becoming clear...
that she's holding herself back in the classroom.
It's as if she's literally afraid to learn.
No one doubts that you love your daughter.
But the Department of Child and Family Services contacted us.
They shared with us that your records show...
that your intellectual capacity... is around that of a 7-year-old.
Our concern is what happens when Lucy turns 8.
Do you understand what Ms. Wright is trying to tell you about Lucy?
John wanted to try new things.
And it wasn't Yoko's fault.
No, it wasn't Yoko's fault.
And Annie says you can... you can hear it on The White Album.
Because John wanted to try new things.
"They perched in silence. How can we be so diff--"
Diff...diff-- I don't know that word.
Yes, you do. Because that's the word that starts with a "D."
I'm tired.
I don't believe you.
Are you calling me a liar?
Yes. I think you have to read the word.
- Yeah, you have to read that word. - No.
Yeah. Here... here it is.
There's the picture where they're all perched.
I won't read the word!
I'm your father...
and I'm telling you to read the word.
I can tell you to because I'm your father.
I'm stupid.
You are not stupid.
No, you are not stupid, because you can read that word.
I don't want to read it if you can't.
No, because that makes me happy.
It makes me happy hearing you read.
Yeah. It makes me happy when you're reading.
"They perched in silence for a long time.
'How can we be so different...
and feel so much alike?' mused Flitter.
'How can we feel so different and be so much alike?' wondered Pip.
'I think this is quite a mystery."'
Keep going.
