0:00:54 > 0:00:57# Hey, what a wonderful kind of day, hey! #

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hey, DW?

0:01:00 > 0:01:02Hey!

0:01:08 > 0:01:11DW is not the most patient person in the world.

0:01:11 > 0:01:15To see what I mean, all you have to do is bake cookies with her.

0:01:15 > 0:01:18Are they ready? Are they ready? Are they ready? Are they ready?

0:01:18 > 0:01:21Are they ready? Are they ready? Are they ready?

0:01:21 > 0:01:24Careful, they're still hot.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29And to see how really impatient she is,

0:01:29 > 0:01:34- all you have to do is go on a car ride with her.- Are we there yet?- No.

0:01:34 > 0:01:40- How about now?- No.- Now?- No.- Now?- DW!

0:01:40 > 0:01:42And holidays are the worst.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45Presents, presents, presents, presents, presents, presents!

0:01:45 > 0:01:49DW, you have to wait until Mom and Dad get up.

0:01:51 > 0:01:54Another time DW gets really impatient is when...

0:01:54 > 0:01:56Is the show starting?

0:01:56 > 0:02:00- Not yet.- Why not? This opening is going on for ever.

0:02:00 > 0:02:05- Make it start now!- Just a few more grains.- No, no, no!

0:02:09 > 0:02:10Baby Steps.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23THEY LAUGH

0:02:23 > 0:02:26Alfred, I said wear a tie, not a pie!

0:02:29 > 0:02:33I can never figure out why they find that picture box so amusing.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Neither can I. It's a completely meaningless display

0:02:36 > 0:02:39of sounds and images. It can't be good for you.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43I know, let's distract them with the noise box.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45THEY LAUGH

0:02:45 > 0:02:49- OK, it's my TV time.- No it isn't.

0:02:49 > 0:02:53Is too. And you're too old to watch Alfred.

0:02:53 > 0:02:55THEY GRUNT

0:02:55 > 0:02:56That was a re-run!

0:02:56 > 0:02:59Hey, this is better than the show!

0:03:03 > 0:03:06May Lynn can play the piano?

0:03:06 > 0:03:08Just a few notes but that's not all.

0:03:10 > 0:03:15- Say hello.- Hello.- And watch this.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17Push the lever, May Lynn.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20HE BURPS

0:03:20 > 0:03:24She's a genius, just like her older brother.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Wow, that's amazing!

0:03:26 > 0:03:32I wonder if Kate can do those things. Say hello, Kate.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35Come on, say hello.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38Blaga blaga, blaga blaga, bloo bloo.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41What on earth is she doing?

0:03:41 > 0:03:45I don't know, she seems to be having some sort of fit.

0:03:46 > 0:03:47Ah!

0:03:49 > 0:03:53- There, that snapped her out of it. - Good thinking, Kate.

0:03:55 > 0:04:00Come on, Kate, just one wave, like this.

0:04:03 > 0:04:05SHE SIGHS

0:04:08 > 0:04:12- Arthur, we have a problem. I think Kate's broken.- What?

0:04:12 > 0:04:15I spent half an hour doing this to her.

0:04:16 > 0:04:21And do you know what she did? Nothing, she didn't even burp.

0:04:21 > 0:04:25She'll do all that stuff when she's ready. Kate's just fine.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28But what if she isn't, what if she turns out like you?

0:04:28 > 0:04:31What's that supposed to mean?

0:04:31 > 0:04:34- Oh, you wouldn't understand. - I turned out pretty well.

0:04:34 > 0:04:39Pretty well isn't good enough, it's only good enough for people like you.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42Kate, something is definitely the matter with DW.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44I was thinking the same thing.

0:04:44 > 0:04:49She stood over me going like this for what seemed like for ever.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51What do you think is wrong with her?

0:04:51 > 0:04:56Let's see, it all started when May Lynn played the noise box.

0:05:08 > 0:05:12Blaga blaga bloo bloo, blaga bloo bloo.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16Mmm... curious.

0:05:16 > 0:05:17If that's the case,

0:05:17 > 0:05:20then perhaps a different set of sounds can make her better.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23Capital idea, let's try it out.

0:05:27 > 0:05:28Thanks for coming, Brain,

0:05:28 > 0:05:32I just need to know if Kate is above average, below average

0:05:32 > 0:05:35or just average average.

0:05:35 > 0:05:39I'm happy to. Child development is fascinating.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42I've always wondered what stopped my peers' brains

0:05:42 > 0:05:44from developing as mine did.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47This simple peg board is for measuring intelligence.

0:05:47 > 0:05:51All you have to do is put the peg into the right hole, like so.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57Kate, blaga blaga, blaga blaga bloo bloo.

0:05:57 > 0:06:01I think she wants me to put this thing in the hole.

0:06:01 > 0:06:06- What on earth for?- I don't know. She must be having one of her fits.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09Now is the time to try out our theory,

0:06:09 > 0:06:11to see if a series of sounds cures her.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17No, no that's all wrong.

0:06:17 > 0:06:21You want to... Here, try this triangle one.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33Huh?

0:06:36 > 0:06:39She failed, didn't she?

0:06:39 > 0:06:42Oh no, my poor little sister!

0:06:42 > 0:06:47- Oh dear, that didn't work, did it? - I'll say.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50It's only one test, DW, hardly conclusive.

0:06:50 > 0:06:55- Let's do some object permanence experiments.- What's that?

0:06:55 > 0:06:59Most babies think that if they can't see an object, it doesn't exist.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02Advanced children tend to know it's still there.

0:07:02 > 0:07:06Boo-boo, dinka boo, dinka ba ba boo. Hooba dinka ba boo.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11Why did he put the ball behind his back?

0:07:11 > 0:07:17Are you sure it's behind his back, could it be... right here?

0:07:17 > 0:07:20Oh, pal, ha-ha, too true.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23How can anyone say for sure where a thing really is?

0:07:23 > 0:07:28Blaga blaga bloo bloo. Blaga bloo... ah!

0:07:28 > 0:07:33- Poor child.- Don't worry, Kate, we will get to the bottom of this.

0:07:37 > 0:07:41We'll give her lessons, walks, peek-a-boo, easy words.

0:07:41 > 0:07:44I want that girl talking one week from today.

0:07:44 > 0:07:49- It might be hard, she is only one-year-old.- So?

0:07:49 > 0:07:51What do you think I was doing when I was one?

0:07:51 > 0:07:55It beats me, you didn't invent me until you were three.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57I'll tell you what I was doing,

0:07:57 > 0:08:01studying, working and studying some more.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04At least I think that's what I was doing.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07I don't really remember but I turned out like this somehow.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10Now Kate needs me.

0:08:10 > 0:08:12DW needs me.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16But it could be ages until we find the right combination of sounds.

0:08:16 > 0:08:21- There must be something else that could cure her.- But what?

0:08:21 > 0:08:24I don't know, Pal, but I'll find it, she's my sister.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27I can't see her suffer like this.

0:08:28 > 0:08:29DOG MOANS

0:08:29 > 0:08:31DOORBELL RINGS

0:08:35 > 0:08:41Very good May Lynn, and how does a lion roar? ROAR!

0:08:41 > 0:08:43ROAR!

0:08:43 > 0:08:45ROAR!

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Come on, Kate, roar with me.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51ROAR!

0:08:51 > 0:08:54No? How about the pig?

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Oink oink oink.

0:08:56 > 0:08:57Miaow!

0:08:57 > 0:08:58ROAR!

0:08:58 > 0:08:59DOG BARKS

0:09:00 > 0:09:03It gets worse every day.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05Can you help us, May Lynn?

0:09:05 > 0:09:08Whenever Binky behaves oddly, I tend to copy him

0:09:08 > 0:09:11and for some reason, that seems to calm him down.

0:09:11 > 0:09:15SHE MAKES ANIMAL NOISES

0:09:20 > 0:09:22I wouldn't know where to begin.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Oh, let's give the cat the pig legs.

0:09:25 > 0:09:28Cats are very piggy after all.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31- I like it!- Oh, that's rich.

0:09:33 > 0:09:38No, Kate, the pig bottom goes with the pig top.

0:09:38 > 0:09:39Here, let me show you.

0:09:39 > 0:09:42Would you just leave her alone already?

0:09:42 > 0:09:43Don't listen to Arthur, Kate.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46You know I'm just trying to help you, don't you?

0:09:46 > 0:09:48Actually, Arthur's right.

0:09:48 > 0:09:53Sometimes babies to the most amazing things when you just ignore them.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Kate, I'm just going to ignore you now

0:10:02 > 0:10:05but it's not because I don't care, OK?

0:10:32 > 0:10:35Oh! How old is your baby?

0:10:35 > 0:10:3917, and she's my sister.

0:10:39 > 0:10:40Ah!

0:10:42 > 0:10:43Oh!

0:10:53 > 0:10:57Blaga blaga, bloo, woof woof.

0:10:57 > 0:11:01SHE MAKES ANIMAL NOISES

0:11:01 > 0:11:03She's my older sister.

0:11:03 > 0:11:07Down, DW, heel!

0:11:07 > 0:11:08DW MAKES ANIMAL NOISES

0:11:10 > 0:11:15I just want you to know, I'll always love you, Kate.

0:11:15 > 0:11:20SHE BABBLES

0:11:20 > 0:11:21DW...

0:11:21 > 0:11:27- Oh! You just said my name. You said DW.- DW.

0:11:27 > 0:11:30You are a genius!

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Hey everyone, Kate just said my name,

0:11:33 > 0:11:35Kate just said my name, she said my name.

0:11:35 > 0:11:39- What just happened? - I think I just cured DW.- How?

0:11:39 > 0:11:43Did you bang the spoon against the highchair? Or hypnotise her?

0:11:43 > 0:11:46No, I just copied the way her mouth moved.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49You know, Kate, don't take this personally,

0:11:49 > 0:11:50but people are the most illogical,

0:11:50 > 0:11:53strange and frustrating creatures on the planet.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56Still, they do know how to make a top notch ham bone!
