"Previously on Switched at Birth..." "Welcome to the first class of the Midwest Institute for the Deaf at U.M.K.C." "I'm Iris." "Daphne." "Hi." "I'm in the interpreter program." "Let me help you with your coffeehouse." "Help how?" "I can bring in money, and I'm an interior designer." "I can give your place the look you want to get it open." "We don't even know each other." "I'm Regina." "Eric." "It was her idea." "Yeah, and you let her go through with it." "I was going to prison." "You will eat with it." "You will sleep with it." "You have a curfew of 7:00 P.M." "I'm so sorry this turned into such a mess." "I need you to leave my room." "Dad, I had to beg him to go to L.A. without me, and he still could change his mind at any minute." "_" "_" "_" "_" "You're in my film theory class." "Right?" "Yeah." "I used to babysit this little deaf boy in high school, so, um..." "I know some sign language." "My name is" "S-k-y-e like the sky." "Mm-hmm." "(Phone clicks)" "_" "Emmett." "You're the guy that's so into horror films, right?" "Hey, I'm going on a hike." "Do you want to come?" "Ah." "You're waiting for a call." "Got it." "No problem." "Okay, well, I'll see you around." "So..." "What's your favorite horror film?" "Psycho, of course." "That shower scene gets me every time." "John:" "That was the best birthday dinner ever." "Mm, it's getting harder and harder to top myself." "How many dinners has it been?" "Yeah, exactly what birthday is this, John?" "Toby:" "Let's see, so I'm 20, and when I was born, dad was... 20 years younger." "That is correct, my friend." "(Giggling)" "It's not the miles, Toby." "It's how you live them." "Yes." "And if ever a guy deserved to live out his golden years in comfort, it's you." "(Clears throat)" "(Chuckles)" "Where's my cake?" "Toby:" "You almost ready?" "Yeah, if you help me." "So, how's school going?" "It's good." "Hey, uh..." "I was way too hard on you at the orientation." "It's all right." "Actually, I'm glad that you yelled some sense into me, and I'm really glad that I didn't go away to school." "Yeah, me too." "So we're... we're good?" "Yeah, we're good." "If I could only get through to... hey." "This many candles, we should have a fire extinguisher nearby." "You know, I texted you a few times." "I never heard back." "Yeah, I don't really get to use my phone on the chain gang." "The rest of the time, I'm on with Emmett, trying to pretend that we're not 2,000 miles away from each other." "Right." "I'm so sorry." "I know you are." "I can't say it enough." "We both know it was my choice, so I can't really be mad at you." "But you are." "Come on, let's just go have some fun." "(Theme music playing)" "Uh, morning." "I got you a chocolate muffin from the dining hall." "Thanks." "Oh, and before you dive back into the ions, I wanted to ask you if you want to play bubble soccer with me?" "What?" "It's soccer, but everyone wears these enormous, plastic-like hamster balls around their heads as fun as that sounds," "I should really study." "Okay." "Oh, there's a Hello Kitty convention in town." "And we can get matching tattoos." "I have to pass." "Okay." "What is that smell?" " _ - _" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" " Hey." " Hey." "What are you looking at?" "I am looking at the U.M.K.C. course catalog." "Honey, let's not become helicopter parents." "Daphne is perfectly capable of picking her own classes." "Actually, I was looking at it for myself." "You want to take a class at U.M.K.C.?" "You know, last night got me thinking about what's next, and I never went to college because of baseball." "Always thought I was missing something." "Am I crazy?" "No, I think it's a fantastic idea." "I'm so proud of you, honey." "(Door opens)" "And the cavalry has arrived." "What do you got there?" "Supplies." "It's my weekend to keep Bay company for her house arrest." "I'm gonna need a full bag of tricks." "You're a smart man." "You know, I had Bay duty last weekend." "By Sunday night, she was crawling up the walls." "Yeah, she was a bit testy." "Define "testy."" "Mean as a snake." "(Bay screams)" "I'm out." "Me too." "Good luck." "(Door opens)" " (Sighs) - (Door closes)" "That was a happy scream?" "Oh, I would be doing a touchdown dance if I wasn't charging this stupid thing." "I just got an email from the Kansas City artists' showcase." "I made the final round." "Cool." "What does that mean?" "If I win, they're gonna put one of my pieces on City Plaza next to these really important artists." "Nice." "Congratulations." "This is seriously the first good thing that's happened to me in forever." "I'm glad to see the clouds are finally parting." "I still have to ace the interview." "The lady is coming tomorrow at 10:00." "She's gonna want to see my studio." "I still have a bunch of pieces that I'm gonna have to finish." "Relax." "We'll make it happen." "Oh!" "I can't wait to tell Emmett." "Okay, ow." "(Students chattering)" "(Phone vibrates)" "Hi." "I've been looking for you." "I have some news." "I got picked to be the D.P." "on a film that's shooting this weekend." "_" "And the guy that's directing it has some big shot producer for a dad." "So..." "He pulled some strings and we get to shoot in a giant sound stage on a real studio lot." "_" "And..." "I got you on as a..." "Grip." " _" " Yeah. (Giggles)" "Yay!" "Toby:" "Maybe we should set out some wine and cheese or something." "What are you doing?" "I'm getting some intel on this woman for tomorrow." "Oh, no." "No, no, no, no, no, no." "What's the matter?" "The showcase is getting funding from the N.E.A." "The National Endowment for the Arts." "The N.E.A isn't going to support an artist with a criminal record." "Uh... okay." "What are you looking for?" "A copy of my application." "I sent it in a few months ago." "Okay." ""Have you ever been convicted of a felony?"" "Maybe they don't have to find out." "I think it's pretty safe to say they're gonna find out." "Hey." "I see you got my message about the church drive." "What do you got for me?" "Oh." "There's some nice clothes in here." "Yeah." "He had good taste." "And he looked damn good in whatever he wore." "He did." "Sometimes I dream he's asleep next to me." "Oh, sweetie." "What I wouldn't give for one last roll in the hay." "(Laughs) Okay." "Is it wrong for me to say that?" "I mean, it's just been so long." "Of course not." "But, you know, to be honest, when you told me about the Hawaii offer," "I just assumed that you and Wes were, you know..." "No!" "We kissed, but that's it." "It was just too soon." "Look, Regina..." "You don't have to give away Angelo's things right now." "If you're not ready, you're not ready." "No, I should." "It's time." "(Bell rings)" "(Crew chattering)" "How cool is this?" "Yeah, I got her now." "Skye, we need you at camera to line up first shot." "Okay, I got to go." "Watch your back." "I said watch your back." "Skye:" "Hey, come on." "There's someone I want you to meet." " _ - _" "_" "Oh, oh, wait!" "You're closing it?" "Some idiot put a cherry bomb in the toilet." "The whole plumbing system's shot." "How long will that take to fix?" "I don't know." "Maybe six weeks." "Six weeks?" "Well, there's a bathroom at the other end of the floor." "One bathroom for 40 kids?" "That's never gonna work." "Complain to whoever cherry bombed your toilet." "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "Hey, Taylor." "Uh, this is my friend Emmett..." "Why'd you choose the 50?" "It's perfect for the shot." "What about the 24?" "That lens is too wide." "Her face will look all fat and puffy." "I don't care how she looks." "Fincher does it all the time." "It's about the dominance of the protagonist, not some actor looking good." "Well, still, compositionally..." "I'm going with the wide." "That is, unless you want to waste more of my time arguing with me." "No." "Got it." "Um, I'll get the 24 on right away." "Who are you?" "This is Emmett." "He's in school with us and he's gonna help us out in the grip department." "_" "He says thanks for having him." "He's deaf." "Oh." "Cool." "You know, we're all good with grips, but I could use someone in craft service." "Put him there." "Taylor..." "Assistant director:" "First team rehearsal everybody." "(Bell rings)" "I'm so sorry." "Um, I'll talk to him." "_" "Okay." "(Doorbell rings)" "She's here!" "This is an abomination." "It cost me three bucks." "It's the best I could do on short notice." "And it covers the anklet." "Is this really wrong?" "I hate to lie to her." "You're not lying." "Technically, you're innocent." "Ms. Berdick, I presume?" "Are you Mingo?" "I am." "What can I do for you?" "You can start by apologizing for blowing up our bathroom." "Damn." "Forensic evidence, huh?" "What are you, a criminology major?" "Oh, so you admit that you did it." "No." "Those pictures don't prove anything." "Oh, I think the Dean's office will feel differently." "I'm sure they're gonna want to know why you've been persecuting the new, deaf kids." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "You're deaf?" "Ugh." "Hey, come on." "Getting hazed is all part of the experience." "You wouldn't want me to treat you differently than the other freshmen, would you?" "(Scoffs) Whatever." "I was just trying to give you a fair warning, you're about to get kicked out of school." "Hey, oh." "You're not actually gonna turn me in, are you?" "Not if you stop pranking us." "Wow, you are really uptight." "Okay, no more pranks." "And you ruined our bathroom, so we get yours." "Well, then where are we supposed to go?" "To the athletic center next door." "No, no." "No way." "That's not gonna happen." "All right, cool." "Yeah, nice knowing you." "Wait!" "Um, okay." "I got an idea." "We'll play you for it." "Excuse me?" "Dorm triathlon." "Three events." "Winner gets exclusive rights to the bathroom." "Loser... (Clicks tongue) does their business next door." "No, why would I agree to that when I have these?" "Well, all that really proves is that some guy had to use the john in the middle of the night." "We win, we get the bathroom." "Yep, and then you'll be back to your books by happy hour." "Promise." "(Sighs) Fine." "We're in." "Let the games begin." "(Scoffs)" "Ok, so the trick with Tug of War is to go small in the front with our strongest in the back." "So Travis, you're our anchor." "Where do you want me, Coach?" "Uh, well it's five-on-five, so I think we're good here." "Oh, sure." "No problem." "Just remember, give them a little at first, and then start pulling." "It'll throw them off balance."

"No, actually most of the lacrosse team lives in Fisher, except for Dominick, who lives at home with his grandmother." "It's a touching story, actually." "You brought in ringers?" "That's cheating."

"Wait here." "(Sighs)" "She's gonna add more time to my sentence, I know it." "I'm not gonna get to L.A. till I'm 30!" "Calm down." "Everything's gonna be okay." "No, it is not gonna be okay." "I needed that showcase and now it's just another thing that I've lost all because of her." "You know I think what you did was crazy, but it was your choice." "I know, and you know what really pisses me off?" "Is that I don't even get to be mad at her without feeling guilty about it." "That's why I can't be in the same room with her." "I just end up... hating myself." "Well, if you could go back right now, would you do anything differently?" "No." "Daphne's not in prison." "She still gets to be a doctor." "She's been killing herself, making sure that she doesn't let you down." "Officer:" "Here you go." "New charger." "Go home, plug in." "They'll start monitoring you again in a couple hours." "Wait, that's it?" "I'm in a good mood." "Did you hear that?" "She said you've got a couple hours." "That pretty much means to me we can do whatever the heck you want." " Yeah, I guess you're right." " So... what'll it be?" "I'm the worst roommate ever." "And you have been so great to me." "I wouldn't even have an interpreter if it weren't for you."

"I'm pretty good one-on-one, but... (Sighs) When everyone's together..." "I'm totally lost." "That's like me in chemistry most the time." "You know, I'm starting to think coming here was a huge mistake." "No!" "No." "You're gonna be fine, because I'm gonna help you." "We're roommates." "We look out for each other, right?" "Serena:" "Hey." "We got to book it." "Mud run's in 10 minutes." "What's that all about?" "The dorm triathlon." "The final event is a mud run." "Oh, that's cool." "I did that once in my summer camp."
