- 1:25Speaker 1: get to it then, Okay, wonderful. Thank you for finally
- 1:27Speaker 1: following along in the conversation. I have spoken with his teacher,
- 1:31Speaker 1: and I observed his behavior myself, and I think he
- 1:33Speaker 1: would do better in a different school. All Right, First off,
- 1:37Speaker 1: I feel like you're being incredibly rude to me right now.
- 1:40Speaker 1: You're picking up on that good You can't talk to
- 1:43Speaker 1: me like this. First of all, you are being incredibly
- 1:46Speaker 1: rude right now, and I still have absolutely no idea
- 1:48Speaker 1: what is going on? Then? Why don't I tell you? Please? Do?
- 1:51Speaker 1: I'm waiting. Well, your son Benjamin in the classroom just
- 1:56Speaker 1: sort of sits there and laughs and paints and draws.
- 1:59Speaker 1: But thing extraordinary coming from him. Nothing. He's four years old, Yes,
- 2:06Speaker 1: extraordinary exactly. He's four years old, and I think it's
- 2:08Speaker 1: high time that he show off some of his extraordinary skills.
- 2:11Speaker 1: Our school prides itself on having extraordinary students, and we
- 2:15Speaker 1: haven't seen anything extraordinary from Benjamin. Are you for real? Like?
- 2:19Speaker 1: Is this a real phone call right now? My son
- 2:21Speaker 1: is four years old. Let me ask you this. Are
- 2:23Speaker 1: you on the phone and we're talking about your son? Yes,
- 2:27Speaker 1: then this would be a real phone call. Oh wow, wow,
- 2:31Speaker 1: thank you? Something else? This is really something else, Yes,
- 2:34Speaker 1: it is. I'd never had to explain so much to
- 2:37Speaker 1: somebody before. Listen, we have many extraordinary four year olds
- 2:40Speaker 1: in our school. Do you know about Sasha? I don't
- 2:42Speaker 1: give a about Sasha. Who the hell are you to
- 2:45Speaker 1: call me and not only talk about my son like this,
- 2:48Speaker 1: but talk to me the way you were talking to
- 2:50Speaker 1: me right now. This is incredibly rude. Do you not?
- 2:53Speaker 1: Do you not understand how inappropriate this is? Right now,
- 2:56Speaker 1: let me give you a little background on Sasha. Okay,
- 2:58Speaker 1: she loves playing the piano and she can play Mozart's
- 3:01Speaker 1: entire ninth Symphony with her hands and her feet already
- 3:04Speaker 1: at age four? What can your son do? I don't
- 3:06Speaker 1: give a about a kid named Sasha. All right, Oh well,
- 3:10Speaker 1: then let me tell you about Corbyn's another one of
- 3:13Speaker 1: our extraordinary four year olds. I don't give a about
- 3:15Speaker 1: Corbin or any other kid that you're going to talk
- 3:17Speaker 1: to me about. I'm just trying to let you understand,
- 3:19Speaker 1: Corbyn is our little stand up comedian. Every day before
- 3:23Speaker 1: class starts, we give him a little microphone and put
- 3:24Speaker 1: him in front of the class and he does ten
- 3:26Speaker 1: minutes of stand up material every morning. Meanwhile, meanwhile, Benjamin,
- 3:30Speaker 1: your son is doing nothing, just sitting there, not doing
- 3:34Speaker 1: anything extraordinary. I don't know. I can't say that word enough.
- 3:38Speaker 1: Apparently it's your favorite word right now, Are you kidding?
- 3:42Speaker 1: We're talking about four year olds right now. We are
- 3:44Speaker 1: talking about four year olds right now. We're talking about
- 3:46Speaker 1: the difference between an average four year old, which would
- 3:48Speaker 1: be your son, and our other extraordinary students, which is
- 3:52Speaker 1: why I don't think he belongs in our school. Then
- 3:54Speaker 1: maybe we don't want him at your school. Do you
- 3:56Speaker 1: know what the word extraordinary means? Do not talk down
- 3:59Speaker 1: to me right now. I am already so pissed off
- 4:02Speaker 1: at this, and I am expecting an apology before we
- 4:06Speaker 1: go any further with this. Okay, well, I just didn't know.
- 4:08Speaker 1: If you're understanding what I was saying, you can definitely
- 4:10Speaker 1: go to dictionary dot com and write the word extraordinary
- 4:13Speaker 1: in there. It'll tell you you can go off. I
- 4:16Speaker 1: am coming down to the school later today. I am
- 4:19Speaker 1: taking Benjamin out because if all like you are the
- 4:23Speaker 1: ones in charge, I don't want my child anywhere near
- 4:26Speaker 1: that place. Did you hear me? Thank you so much
- 4:29Speaker 1: for taking him off of our hands. You finally realize
- 4:31Speaker 1: how unextraordinary he is? Oh yourself? Yourself? At this point,
- 4:36Speaker 1: I'd like to tell you that this is a prank
- 4:37Speaker 1: phone call. If I can do that. I have no
- 4:40Speaker 1: idea what you're talking about, but you better be at
- 4:41Speaker 1: the school today. I'm not at the school because this
- 4:44Speaker 1: is actually Jewil from brook and Jewil in the morning
- 4:46Speaker 1: doing a phone tap on you. What. It's a prank
- 4:50Speaker 1: phone call. Your brother Matt set you up. No, it's not. Yes,
