Ok, so my children threw a tantrum Friday night, but they threw it 
during the first story on Twilight Zone.  Please tell me (go ahead
and explain it in complete detail, if you want) what happened?
I saw the beginning with the parents worried their son would fail
the intelligence test.  I don't recall hearing anything about what
happens if you fail the test.  I saw the parts where the boy shows
that he's really like you and me, except he's more sensitive and
likes books a lot more.  Of course, these is way ahead of the nerdy
civilization around him.  I saw him go in to take his test.  The 
next thing I know they're calling the parents telling them their
son failed the test and was destroyed/terminated/whatever.
QUESTION:  What did I miss?  If the answer is nothing, then I feel
cheated by that particular episode.  Otherwise, what I saw of it
was pretty good.  I also liked the second story, but I thought it
was way too long.  Of course, it might not have been as good if it
was shorter either.
