You're in the third grade
and you're dealing...
You're in the third grade and you're
dealing with this level math?
I didn't deal with
this stuff until... ever.
Does that mean
you're not going to help me?
Of course not.
Not at all. Let's take a...
Let's take a shot at this.
I'm not very good at math, though,
all right? I'm a lawyer.
- You know what we're good at, right?
- What?
Nothing.
That was...
That was a joke.
Hi. I'm Duvan. Are you Elliott?
Yes, yes. Uh...
- Nice to meet you. Come on in.
- Thank you.
Come on in.
My rsum.
A list of my study courses.
A paper that I wrote
for the National Math Board
on systemic dysfunction
in proper Algebraic education.
That's good. This is good.
- You want a drink?
- I would... like a drink, yes.
OK, good.
What do you like? I got the works.
Oh, no, just a water, please.
And... another paper that I wrote.
In the flyer, my piano lessons.
I have a fall special that I'm currently
running that offers the piano lessons
half off when purchased with tutoring
in either math, science
or any of the eight languages
that I have listed there.
You sure you don't want a cocktail?
You're very, very qualified, Duvan.
That's good.
Because Eloise, she's special.
She lost her grandmother... my wife,
about three weeks ago in a car crash.
I don't want her to fall behind
in her studies.
- What about her mother?
- My daughter?
She died during childbirth.
She had congenital heart problems.
My wife and I weren't with her
at the hospital when she was born.
Weren't invited. Or included.
We, uh... We weren't called,
let's just put it that way.
The doctors weren't aware
of her medical history.
I lost my father, my grandfather
and two of my brothers.
Killed by murderers,
along with 300 others from my village.
I'm sorry.
A paper I wrote on literature's
effect on grief
for the library of the National
Endowment for Children's Literature.
I have also written a paper
on channeling our emotions
in a positive direction using meditation
and alternative grief counseling.
That's good, but there's gonna
be something else, all right?
It's not gonna be just Eloise.
It's gonna be me as well.
I'm gonna need a little tutoring
in math myself.
Is that gonna be a problem?
No, that will not be a problem at all.
I do, however, charge by the student.
Yeah, I'm sure you do.
Elliott, it's Rowena.
Now I need you to pick up that phone
and call me, baby.
I know you're in pain.
Your pain is my pain.
That little girl is my little girl. OK?
Pick up the phone. Call Wee Wee.
Call Wee Wee.
Kyle had 32 shells.
He gave eight to his friend.
- How many shells does Kyle have now?
- Eight to his friend?
