Phase II: Symmetry
12 THE CONSULTATION
The Mother takes the Prodigy to a Psychiatrist for assessment. He performs a diagnostic interview and battery of tests on the Prodigy.

Psychiatrist:
I know it's hard to find the words
But tell me all about your world
Do you [bad word] to adapt?
Do you feel detached?

Prodigy:
It seems i'm always out of place
Like some alien machine
I never know how i should be
Of what to feel, or what is real

Mother:
Can you help us reach our son?
Can we put our faith in you?
Can you help him [bad word] 
There is brilliance shining through
Do you see it too?

Psychiatrist:
Let's talk about your dreams
Can you tell me what you see?
Can you describe the way you feel?
Do you feel anything at all...

Prodigy:
I see things that don't belong
In this four-dimensional world
There is so much more beyond
More to unveil, more to reveal

Mother:
Can you help us reach our son?
Can we put our faith in you?
Can you help him [bad word] 
There is magic shining through

Mother:
Can you help us reach our son?

Prodigy:
I, i need a future i can build

Mother:
Can you tell us what to do?

Prodigy:
Give me a role that i can fulfill

Mother:
Can we help him rise above?

Prodigy:
I know i've got something to give

Mother and Prodigy:
reason to live!

13 DIAGNOSIS
The Psychiatrist informs the Mother and Father of his findings. But will they accept the unconventional course of treatment he suggests?

Psychiatrist:
Yes, i'm afraid i see signs of impairment
But there is something more
He's an exceptional savant, one in a million

His mind is ablaze with distraction
But maybe i can help
I'm testing a new [bad word] 
That can help him focus

Father:
Please tell us more, that sounds intriguing
Can he join your clinical trial?
If he could concentrate he could help me
He might even be of some use!

Center the mind, cut straight to the core
Brighten the flame, break open the cage
Shatter the wall, shut down the noise
Soften the pain, sharpen the brain

Psychiatrist:
I have to confess it's experimental
I'm [bad word] through the tests
The side effects could include
Extreme delusions

Mother:
No! not on my life, i'll never allow it!
No matter what we could win
I won't let you endanger my child
I refuse to play dice with his life

14 THE ARGUMENT 1
Is the Psychiatrist's experimental [bad word] worth the risk? The Mother and Father have vastly different views - and morivations.

Mother:
How could you even contemplate
Experimenting on our child
Were you only thinking
Of yourself again?

Father:
No! Why shouldn't i want to help him
You make it sound like it's a crime
I'm not giving up, this isn't over!

15 THE RIVAL'S DILEMMA
The Rival appears to have his own agenda.

Rival:
So... what if they are right
And he's so remarkable
How does that affect me?

Ever since i was a child
It all came so easy
I never had to try

If he's as brilliant as they say
How will i be noticed
Now i'm not so special... anymore

I'm not sure why i'm afraid
No, he won't beat me
Not without a fight, no!

One day i'll show them
I am the genius
One day the whole world will know
One day i'll show them
Who he really is
One day they'll know

16 SURFACE TENSION
 [bad word] 

17 REASON TO LIVE

Teacher:
Let's find him
future to build
He'll give me
role to fulfill
I know he's got something to give
We all need
reason to live

Girl:
future to build
role to fulfill
Something to give
reason to live

18 POTENTIAL
The Teacher and the Girl each have their own r
