Harry: Any packages come today?
Matilda: [shakes her head] Mmm-mmm.
Harry: [noticing her books] Where'd all this come from?
Matilda: Library.
Harry: The library? You've never set foot in a library! You're only 4 years old.
Matilda: 6 1/2.
Harry: You're 4!
Matilda: 6 1/2.
Harry: If you were 6 1/2, you'd be in school already!
Matilda: I want to be in school. I told you I was supposed to start school in September. You wouldn't listen.
Harry: Get up, get up! get out of here! and give me that book!
[He throws the book aside, and leads Matilda to where Zinnia is]
Harry: Dearest pie, how old is Matilda?
Zinnia: 4.
Matilda: I'm 6 1/2, Mommy!
Zinnia: 5, then.
Matilda: I was 6 in August!
Harry: You're a liar!
Matilda: I want to go to school.
Harry: School? It's out of the question. Who would be here to sign for the packages? We can't leave valuable packages sitting out on the doorstep. Now go watch TV like a good kid. [Matilda leaves]
Zinnia: You know, sometimes I think there's something wrong with that girl.
Harry: Hmph, tell me about it.
[Cut to the hallway; Matilda picks up her book and walks to her room as Michael starts throwing marshmallows at her]
Michael: Hey, dip-face! Have a marshmallow. Have another marshmallow, dip-face! Dip-face!
