Learning New Things About Ourselves Page #5

Episode #25
Synopsis: Many times, we find ourselves with feelings we don't quite understand or have difficulty processing. A lot of those feelings can be worked out with the right kind of critical thinking. In this video, Thomas has been feeling bad and doesn't quite know why. The Sides are pointing fingers and there's no end in sight. It's time to solve the problem by approaching it from a new angle!

[Logan]:
*whips out flashcard saying "Samesies"* Same-size.

[Thomas]:
Yeah, I gotta say I don't see anything wrong there either.

[Virgil]:
Wha- you- I-

[Thomas]:
Now, any other solutions on this whole loop-breaking thing?

[Roman]:
Um...

[Virgil]:
I mean, I don't know. I don't know. I guess, I don't know.

[Logan]:
If there's a problem, forego looking in my direction. If there were a line dividing this room into two segments, separating those of us who are potentially at fault and those of us who are certainly not at fault, you would find that I stand beyond the fault line.

[Thomas]:
Okay, Roman? Anything, bud?

[Roman]:
You, uh, you always do your best thinking in the shower. So, uhh, get naked? Everybody get naked? Everyone, get-?

[Virgil]:
No, stop. No one is getting naked.

[Thomas]:
Guys, come on! I'm apparently stuck in this endless cycle and I don't know why I can't just break it!

[Patton]:
-gasps- Thomas! That's it!

[Thomas]:
What?

[Patton]:
I don't know!

[Virgil]:
Then why did you-

[Patton]:
No, YOU don't know!

[Roman]:
I'm confused.

[Patton]:
Virgil said this problem is cut-and-dry, but then you said you don't know why you can't break the cycle! Maybe it's because this problem is the opposite of cut and dry!

[Logan]:
Intact and wet!

[Patton]:
No, uh gosh words can be tough. Um... It's not just that you don't know, but it's that you don't know that you don't know. And that's okay! I mean, there's lots of stuff that I don't know that I don't know.

[Virgil]:
What's he saying?

[Thomas]:
I don't know.

[Thomas, Roman, and Patton]: THIRD BASE!

[Patton]:
Yeah… no, that's funny.

[Logan]:
Oh, I think I do. Sometimes, we don't seek the answer to a question because we don't know that there's a question that we should be asking in the first place- Patton! You're... good. That was helpful.

[Patton]:
Yee.

[Thomas]:
Okay, so I need to be asking myself a question in order to get down to the bottom of this issue.

[Roman]:
But what is the question?

[Logan]:
That is the question, for now. The answer to that question is... the question.

[Virgil]:
Guys, I'm barely following this.

[Logan]:
Perhaps it's time to put on our cogitating caps.

[Thomas]:
You mean our... figurative cogitating caps, right, Logan-? Nope, it's literal. All right, cool. Well, keep me updated over there. Alright, come on guys! We've got an issue. Something that I'm not aware of yet, something that may be unlocked with the right question. This is like... fundamental learning! How did I used to learn things?

[Logan]:
Textbooks.

[Virgil and Roman]: Mistakes.

[Patton]:
Puppets!

[Thomas]:
What?

[Logan]:
You know he always shouts out random things, Thomas, ignore it.
