Adam scolds Max for his hurtful comments, but Max believes he didn't do anything wrong, even though at the end he apologizes to Sarah Braverman for what he said.

Kristina and Adam parents decide to transfer Max to a mainstream school after being told that he is very intelligent. They do this in order to challenge him academically even though they are worried about his social life. He is trying hard to make friends, though it proves difficult.
