Virginia owes up she feels guilty for having strangled Jimmy's talent, estranging him from his schoolmates, until a golf club from the air knocked Jimmy down and the musical talent out of him, later object of another confession. After consulting Dr. Finklestein, the Chances try to reconstruct the past, including Maw Maw's cruel and unorthodox tutoring methods, hoping Jimmy's memory may be triggered. It seems to do so and Jimmy is bribed into the music school's annual concert, only to find out otherwise, yet there's a consolation prize to his taste. Written by KGF Vissers
