| Fate of Talent | 11:10 |
| There's plenty of discussion about children who are distinguishing due to the color of their skin or due to some disability. There is not, however, much talk about children who have been endowed with some extraordinary talent. Are we willing and able to accept people who are above-average? Two parts from a series about exceptional young people present hair wizard Michael Zapoměl and painter Lucie Filimonová. | |
| Shoes Named Melichar | 13:10 |
| The heroes of the story are the young 1st-grader Honzík, trying to get failing marks so that he can return to kindergarten; his older sister Jolanka, who likes her classmate Radim and inadvertently becomes suspected of stealing some expensive shoes; and the young teacher Adamová, continuously dogged by bad luck. She can't convince the janitor to take away the collected chestnuts, she continuously drops off her workbooks, breaks the new shoe cabinet, and the school principle constantly reprimands her for forgetting to lock the school pavilion. The situation in this impractically constructed school gets serious when somebody starts stealing the school kids' jackets. Fortunately, Honzik is there and he catches sight of an unknown lady in the school. And when he's unable to inform Radim, he plans to follow her himself. | |

At night, Claire escapes to raucous concerts where she catches the eye of 33-year-old Jim, a would-be rock star who feeds on young fans' adoration. Jim leads her into an intoxicating world of hard-partying musicians, while at school, Claire takes Henry under her wing.
