space, shape, size and distance.
1:04:03
It's fascinating. There's only been
20 cases of this in the last 200 years.

1:04:08
Your eyes work, but your brain
hasn't learned to process the information.

1:04:13
You are mentally blind.
Neurologists call this visual agnosia.

1:04:18
Well, I call it pretty screwed up.
1:04:20
That's a much better term.
I'll bring it up at the next meeting.

1:04:24
It would be difficult to get grant money
for the pretty-screwed-up foundation.

1:04:29
I have something I'd like to read to you.
1:04:32
Oh. Rugalach? I made it myself.
1:04:37
Dammit.
1:04:38
Uh, my glasses, I can never find 'em.
1:04:41
Mrs Fenster! Help!
1:04:47
Thank you. Happens all the time.
1:04:49
OK, Alberto Valvo.
1:04:52
Uh... "Sight Restoration
after Long-term Blindness."

1:04:56
Ah...
1:04:57
"One must die as a blind person
to be born again

1:05:01
as a sighted person."
1:05:04
"However, it is the interim,
the limbo between two worlds,

1:05:07
that is so terrible."
1:05:11
There you go, pal. You're in limbo.
1:05:14
That... That's it? Limbo? I mean...
That book doesn't have anything else

1:05:19
- that might help with Virgil's condition?
- Limbo's not so bad. It's like New Jersey.

1:05:24
You can see where all the good stuff is.
You just have to get there.

1:05:28
I know, I know,
you were expecting Anne Bancroft.

1:05:32
A dramatic breakthrough
out by the water pump.

1:05:34
Sorry, I'm just a professor.
1:05:36
I teach people how to teach the blind
how to become independent.

1:05:40
Unfortunately, there's no manual
on what you're going through.

1:05:44
I'd like to help, but like the rest of things
in life, it's really up to you.

1:05:50
Are you crazy? I'm completely confused.
1:05:54
You said you'd like to help,
so we came here for help...

1:05:57
- All right, all right, you want a lesson?
- Yes!
