That is a link to the episode on YouTube. And now that you've been given the opportunity to watch the episode, I feel no need to give a spoiler alert.
I've always been confused by this episode. Why would the government murder children with higher than normal intelligence? That doesn't make any sense. Murdering stupid children sure. But not the smart kids. Why kill the smart kids?

They were afraid intelligent people would disrupt their society by speaking out against the establishment, protesting, organizing unions, etc.

As evidenced by a certain recent election.
Smart people challenge the status quo and want change. Stupid people go along with the mooing herd.

Keeping the people stupid is an easy way to control them.

Well, if you're so smart, why don't you explain it to everybody? If you don't explain it, then you prove that you don't know.
