Arthur has his eyes examined with a phoropter while his parents wait.

Dr. Iris:
What can you see?

Arthur:
It's just blurry, Dr. Iris.

Dr. Iris:
(puts in another lens.) Now what do you see?

Arthur:
A giant worm!

Dave:
Huh?

Jane Read:
Where?

(A smiling caterpillar is on the lens, Dr. Iris takes the lens.)

Dr. Iris:
Hm. (puts the small caterpillar on a potted plant and puts the lens back in the phoropter.) That better?

Arthur:
Yeah, I can read it all!

Dr. Iris:
You just need glasses, Arthur. That's why you've been getting those headaches.

Arthur looks at a shelf with various glasses.

Dr. Iris:
All you have to do is choose the frames you like.

Arthur:
[puts on aviator glasses] Cool! [briefly imagines himself standing in front of a jetfighter, tries on rectangular glasses] Hm. Woo. (He tilts his head and his pupils roll along the rim of the glasses.)

Jane:
Those are nice.

Arthur:
Maybe I'll try something else. [puts on futuristic glasses. He imagines he is standing on Mars. Behind him an alien wearing the same kind of glasses looks out of a UFO. They wave at each other, takes off the glasses and spots some round brown glasses.] Hey!

Dr. Iris:
[reaches down for the glasses and puts them on Arthur] There!

Jane:
Those look wonderful, Arthur!

David:
Very distinguished.

Arthur:
Really?
