Allen considers Jake to be one of the most talented students and has him on stage last, to end the show. The entire school performs their talent in front of everyone. Soon, the semester is over and finals are here in the form of a talent show. Faking it, as Jake continues to do, become easy with a teacher like Mr. His strangest, and most successful, is “out-weirdoing the weirdos.” Kids will love all of these scenes. Jake tries several ways to fit in and hide his lack of talent. For another, they must write a book report, on a book, which does not exist. For one, the class must chew a single piece of gum for six hours, and then write a play about the experience. Allen’s other assignments are equally odd. When it is time to for music lessons, the kids often play without actually touching their instruments and listening to records, even Vinyl Vintage that Mr. Allen, who is definitely one of a kind, as are his assignments. Jake knows one song, cannot read music, and feels his talents end there. Jake worries others will find him to be the fake he feels he is. (Just how much control does his sister have at this school?)
Allen, and, because he is Lisa’s younger brother, his request is granted. Allen, according to Lisa and her offbeat boyfriend Pierre, is either a genius or a nut.

More jokester than composer, Jake will have to think of something quick before the last laugh is on him.” ĭespite having little talent, Jake auditions for a spot at the prestigious Music and Art Academy, by playing the only song he can play: “Song for My Father.” It works, and now Jake attends the school with his sister Lisa, who is perfect at everything she does and therefore difficult to follow in her shadow.
Which is a real problem because Jake just faked his way into the Music and Art Academy for the gifted and talented (and Jake is pretty sure he is neither). And his art? It’s better suited for Pictionary than Picasso.
