Your Boy is a Genius

In the TV show Scorpion, there is a scene where Walter O'Brien, the leader of the team of brilliant misfits, tells Paige Dineen that her son Ralph is a genius. Walter, who has an IQ of 197, is known for his ability to recognize and cultivate extraordinary talent in others, and when he sees Ralph's remarkable abilities in mathematics and problem-solving, he realizes that the boy is a prodigy. Despite Ralph's struggles with social interaction and communication, Walter believes that he has the potential to change the world with his intellect. As a result, he invites Ralph to join the Scorpion team and use his skills to help them tackle complex and dangerous missions. This moment is a turning point for Paige and Ralph, as they come to see that Ralph's differences are actually his strengths, and that he can use his intelligence to make a difference in the world. It is a touching moment that highlights the importance of recognizing and nurturing the unique abilities of individuals, especially those who may not fit into traditional molds or expectations.

[@Lostinfantry868]

A show that tried to deliver on light hearted, funny endings was cancelled when they delivered one of the worst possible ones for a season finale. I would have loved one more season just to tie things up and bring everyone back together.

[@firstname4337]

it was stupid

[@SCOMBAG]

The two things that killed this show was falling into the "we have a ridiculously small amount of time to prevent a catastrophe that only we can prevent" trope too many times, and focusing too much on the Walter+Paige relationship drama at the cost of the lighthearted fun of the first few episodes. With slightly better writing, and more consistent writing, they could have gotten a few more seasons out of the show.

[@deaddudegaming]

@@Lostinfantry868 Yea I agree.

[@RSorkin]

Dammit! Now i’m mad again about how it ended 😡

[@SantiHRod]

"I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but your son is a genius" it's honestly sad that this quote is quite realistic, geniuses have a hard time being social, and despite their great talents, there's not a great amount of opportunities of work that can exploit that talent, and end up taking jobs where they end up wasting their knowledge. And if you tell me about X or Y, those people are mostly individuals who had resources, or were given the chance because they called the attention of someone with those resources, like in this show. And no, a tragic backstory isn't gonna score you the big chance, cause there are other 5 people with a tragic backstory as well.

[@rizkhan3368]

I agree with you, its bad news not only for a Genius, but even the just highly intelligent! they mostly never fit in jobs, and have problems in communication, there will be exceptions though, but thats just what it is an exception.

This scene is so well played, it had me hooked. The first “upload” to the jet-in-flight scenario was supposedly based on something that really happened. So that was fun. Then it quickly became an endless series of sameness: a room full of outcast MacGyvers saving LA or the world from being blown up with just seconds to spare. You can only reset the same plot-line so many times. I wonder if it would have been better as a movie.

[@davidrosensin7985]

It's because people demand that stakes be raised. No one is ever happy going from a city wide threat to a block wide threat. "The stakes were higher last episode, why should i care". The American viewer base is honestly more to blame for how bad the current state of entertainment is than Hollywood, and with how much of a cesspit Hollywood is that's saying something.

I feel like this needs to be clarified: The kid didn't win the game after playing eight moves. They must have played way more than eight moves, but the grandmaster sees there will be a forced checkmate only eight moves away from the current position of the game. Professional chess players don't continue playing a game until the very end. As soon as the player who's about to lose recognizes there would be a guaranteed checkmate without a finite amount of moves (if they kept playing), they resign and the game is over.

So Einstein with an IQ of 160 developed the theory of relativity. Walter works for the NSA (which is impressive). Based on accomplishments that means Walter has accomplished less with more and is underperforming. That’s more of a dig on himself than to Einstein. And a grandmaster chess player who loses in 8 moves? The shortest amount of moves it took Magnus Carlson (who many consider the greatest chess player) win was 17 moves. When you get to the highest level, grandmasters very rarely fall for those mistakes.
