‫NICE. OH, YEAH.

‫SO I SAW THE ARTICLE ‫ON YOU IN "THE HERALD."

‫SOUNDS LIKE THINGS ‫ARE WORKING OUT

‫WITH THE WHOLE ‫NEW SITUATION.

‫DALE, I KNOW YOU'RE A MEMBER ‫OF THE HOSPITAL BOARD.

‫WE PROBABLY SHOULDN'T BE ‫TALKING ABOUT THIS.

‫IT'S OKAY. ‫ABOUT TO GET SETTLED, RIGHT?

‫YEAH, WE'LL SEE.

‫PRETTY GOOD OFFER ‫FROM WHAT I HEAR.

‫ACTUALLY, IT'S LESS ‫OF OUR DEMAND.

‫I DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU ‫WHAT WE'RE UP AGAINST--

‫BUDGET CUTS, SOARING COSTS.

‫I DON'T HAVE TO TELL ‫BEEN UP AGAINST.LY'S

‫AND EVERYBODY ADMIRES ‫THE WAY YOU'RE HANDLING IT,

‫BUT THE HOSPITAL IS PART ‫OF THIS COMMUNITY.

‫YOU REALLY WANNA BE ‫THE GUY WHO PUTS IT UNDER

‫BECAUSE YOU FEEL YOU'RE ENTITLED ‫TO A HUGE PAYDAY?

‫( laughs )

‫THAT IS SO OUT OF LINE.

‫I'M SPEAKING TO YOU ‫AS A FRIEND.

‫YOU BREAK THE HOSPITAL, ‫NEXT THING YOU KNOW

‫YOUR LINE OF CREDIT ‫DRIES UP AT THE BANK

‫AND THEN YOUR DEALERSHIPS ‫TAKE THEIR CONTRACTS TO ‫SOME OTHER CAR WASH CHAIN.

‫AND THEN WHAT ARE YOU LEFT ‫WITH BESIDES YOUR SETTLEMENT?

‫IS THAT A THREAT?

‫IT'S A REALITY CHECK. ‫HOSPITAL DOESN'T HAVE ‫WHAT YOU'RE ASKING FOR.

‫COME ON, JOHN, ‫IT WAS HUMAN ERROR. ‫WE NEED TO DO BETTER.

‫- AND WE WILL. WE HAVE. ‫- OH.

‫BUT LET'S GET THIS THING ‫OVER WITH, SETTLE AND MOVE ON.

‫FOR EVERYBODY'S SAKE.

‫NOW ANYONE CAN DAZZLE ‫WITH A FLAVORFUL CASSOULET

‫OR A SLOW COOKED OSSO BUCO,

‫BUT THE TEST OF A TRUE ‫CHEF IS WHAT THEY DO ‫WITH SIMPLE FARE.

‫SO TODAY WE'RE GOING TO BE ‫MAKING BURGERS AND FRIES.

‫PIECE OF CAKE.

‫NOW THE SECRET ‫TO A GOOD BURGER

‫IS THE THICKNESS ‫OF THE PATTY.

‫WHAT'S THE SECRET?

‫LET'S JUST SAY SIZE MATTERS.

‫SO GARLIC CLOVES, ‫BREAD CRUMBS,

‫BACON, ALL MAKE ‫NICE FILLERS.

‫- YES. ‫- HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT ‫ BLACK BEAN VEGGIE BURGERS?

‫FLAPPY WEDGIE BURGERS?

‫- ( students laugh ) ‫- NO, BLACK BEAN--

‫WHAT?

‫NEVER MIND.

‫- ( camera shutter clicks ) ‫- * THAT'S THE WAY WE ARE

‫* THAT'S THE WAY ‫ WE ARE... *

‫EMMETT. ‫OH, UH--

‫HEY.

‫ARE YOU WAITING ‫FOR DAPHNE?

‫( mouthing words )

‫CAN I LOOK?

‫* THAT'S THE WAY WE ARE

‫* THAT'S THE WAY ‫ WE ARE... *

‫YOU'RE AN ARTIST.

‫* THAT'S THE WAY WE ARE.

‫OH.

‫( mouthing words )

‫YEAH, THAT'S ME, ‫BUT REGINA DOESN'T ‫KNOW I HAVE IT.

‫SO...

‫IT'S MY DAD'S, ‫WHOEVER THAT IS.

‫YOU SEE THE PARKING STICKER ‫IN THE WINDSHIELD?

‫I THOUGHT IT MIGHT TELL ME ‫WHERE HE LIVED OR WORKED.

‫YEAH, I TRIED BLOWING IT UP, ‫BUT IT JUST GOT ALL BLURRY.

‫YOU DON'T KNOW HOW

‫TO ENLARGE THE IMAGE ‫AND, LIKE, SHARPEN IT,

‫DO YOU? YOU DO?

‫IF I SENT YOU A JPEG,

‫COULD YOU DO THAT FOR ME?

‫THANK YOU.

‫AND NOW WHILE YOUR FRIES ‫ARE COOKING,

‫WHIP UP YOUR AIOLI SAUCE.

‫- Daphne: COULD YOU ‫ PASS ME THE LEMONS? ‫- YES.

‫( bell dings )

‫Instructor: ‫ WHEN THE BELL RINGS, ‫ REMOVE THE FRIES,

‫SHAKE OFF THE GREASE ‫ AND LET THEM COOL.

‫WOW, YOU REALLY ARE ‫GOOD AT THIS STUFF.

‫WHY ARE YOU ‫TAKING THIS CLASS?

‫I NEED AN EASY "A," ‫AND I'M NOT GETTING ‫INTO DUKE

‫WITH B's AND C's, ‫EVEN WITH LACROSSE.

‫DON'T BE SHY ‫WITH THE GARLIC.

‫MORE GARLIC ‫MEANS MORE FLAVOR.

‫- COULD YOU GET ME ‫ ANOTHER EGG? ‫- OH, YES.

‫( bell dings )

‫Instructor: ‫ MR. WILKE,

‫DO YOU INTEND TO LET YOUR ‫PARTNER DO ALL THE WORK?

‫I NEVER LET MY PARTNERS ‫DO ALL THE WORK.

‫TELL ME ABOUT THE LAST ‫ MEAL YOU COOKED.

‫I COOKED TOASTER STRUDEL ‫ THIS MORNING FOR BREAKFAST.

‫A MEAL WHICH INCLUDED ‫ MORE INGREDIENTS.

‫Wilke: CRUSHED PEANUT ‫ BUTTER. DOES CRUSHED ‫ PEANUT BUTTER COUNT?

‫- Instructor: NO. ‫- NO?

‫HEY, NEW GIRL,

‫THE BELL MEANS ‫YOUR FRIES ARE DONE.

‫- OH, NO NO NO NO! ‫- ( alarm blaring )

‫( gasps )

‫I'M SO SORRY ‫ABOUT THE FIRE.

‫IT WAS AN ACCIDENT, HONEY. ‫NO ONE'S BLAMING YOU.

‫OF COURSE NOT, ‫BUT FOR LIABILITY PURPOSES,

‫WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO ‫REQUIRE THAT YOU HAVE ‫AN INTERPRETER

‫WITH YOU ON SCHOOL GROUNDS ‫FROM NOW ON.

‫WHAT? NO, I DON'T ‫WANT AN INTERPRETER.

‫I WILL FOCUS MORE ‫NEXT TIME.

‫I PROMISE NOTHING LIKE ‫THIS WILL EVER HAPPEN AGAIN.

‫- PLEASE. ‫- IS THAT REALLY NECESSARY, ‫ MR. THATCHER?

‫I'M AFRAID SO.

‫WELL, MAYBE WE COULD TRY ‫AN INTERPRETER FOR A WHILE

‫AND IF THINGS GO WELL--

‫DAPHNE, I KNOW THIS ‫CAN BE DIFFICULT.

‫MY GRANDDAUGHTER ‫ HAS A DEAF FRIEND,

‫BUT SHE HAS ‫A COCHLEAR IMPLANT.

‫HAVE YOU EVER ‫CONSIDERED THAT?

‫IT'S WORKED WONDERS ‫ FOR HER.

‫I'M ALREADY THE DEAF GIRL ‫WHO SET THE KITCHEN ON FIRE.

‫NOW I HAVE TO BE ‫THE DEAF GIRL WITH ‫THE WEIRD SIDEKICK.

‫I'M SORRY.

‫SO HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ‫OF A COCHLEAR IMPLANT?

‫NO.

‫I'VE READ A LITTLE ‫ABOUT IT.

‫AND I KNOW IT'S NOT ‫THE SAME AS REGULAR HEARING,

‫BUT YOU CAN HAVE ‫A CONVERSATION

‫ON THE PHONE ‫OR LISTEN TO MUSIC

‫OR LAUGHTER.

‫I'M JUST NOT GETTING IT,

‫WHY IT'S SO TERRIBLE.

‫( bell rings )

‫THAT'S THE BELL.

‫I'M SORRY AGAIN ‫ABOUT THE FIRE.

‫IT'S OKAY. ‫IT'S OKAY.

‫Bay: HEY.

‫WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

‫NO WAY. ‫YOU WERE ABLE TO READ ‫THE PARKING STICKER?

‫THE ADDRESS WHERE ‫MY DAD'S CAR IS.

‫HOW DID YOU GET THIS?

‫OH, THE LICENSE PLATE ‫NUMBER.

‫I GUESS THAT'S MORE USEFUL ‫THAN THE PARKING STICKER.

‫I'VE HAD THAT PICTURE ‫FOR WEEKS AND I NEVER ONCE ‫THOUGHT OF DOING THAT.

‫YOU'RE A GENIUS.

‫HOW DO YOU ‫SAY "THANK YOU" ‫IN SIGN LANGUAGE?

‫THANK YOU.

‫SO THIS IS WHERE ‫THE CAR WAS LAST YEAR.

‫MAYBE IT'S STILL THERE.

‫AND MAYBE IF WE FIND ‫THE CAR, WE CAN TRACE ‫THE OWNERSHIP

‫ALL THE WAY BACK ‫TO MY DAD.

‫OH, YOU WANNA ‫GO THERE NOW.

‫OH.

‫WHAT THE HELL? ‫HERE.

‫( bell rings )

‫HEY, MORNING, SUNSHINE.

‫I GOT IT.

‫THIS IS ‫MY INTERPRETER SAM.

‫HI.

‫HEY, BY ANY CHANCE, ‫COULD YOU BURN DOWN ‫MY HISTORY CLASSROOM?

‫THERE'S A PAPER ‫I DIDN'T WRITE.

‫NOT FUNNY.

‫COME ON, I'M KIDDING.

‫WELL, ACTUALLY, ‫ I DIDN'T DO THAT PAPER.

‫( laughing )

‫Girl: ‫ CAN YOU BELIEVE HER?

‫HEY, SOMETHING ‫I COULD HELP YOU WITH?

‫NO, WELL, THEN GET BACK ‫TO YOUR FRITTATA, CLOVER.

‫THE GIRL'S NAMED ‫AFTER A FLOWER. ‫WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?

‫THANKS.

‫LISTEN, WHAT ARE YOU ‫DOING AFTER CLASS?

‫YOU WANNA GET OUT OF HERE? ‫MAYBE STEAL A SCHOOL BUS,

‫FOLLOW BRUNO MARS ‫ON TOUR?

‫BUT DO WE HAVE TO ‫BRING ALONG THE HUMAN ‫SUBTITLE MACHINE?

‫NO OFFENSE, BRO.

‫I MEAN, ‫I'M ALL FOR A THREESOME,

‫BUT I'D RATHER ‫BE OUTNUMBERED THAN ‫OUTGUNNED, DO YOU KNOW?

‫TODAY, WE'LL BE ‫MAKING GAZPACHO,

‫WHICH REQUIRES

‫NO HEATING WHATSOEVER.

‫SO SOMEONE FROM EACH ROW ‫ SHOULD COME UP

‫AND GET A BOX ‫ OF INGREDIENTS.

‫I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

‫Instructor: ‫ EACH GROUP WILL NEED ‫ A LARGE BOWL

‫AND A KNIFE...

‫THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ‫YOU FORCE SPECIAL NEEDS ‫CHARITY CASES...

‫DALE REALLY SAID THAT? ‫HE DOESN'T STRIKE ME AS ‫THE TYPE TO MAKE THREATS.

‫IT'S A SCARE TACTIC.

‫HOSPITAL BOARD OBVIOUSLY ‫THINKS I'M SOME KIND OF ‫A SPINELESS WIMP

‫WHO'S GONNA FOLD ‫AS SOON AS THEY ‫FLASH THEIR SWORD.

‫WHAT IF HE'S RIGHT ABOUT PEOPLE ‫RETALIATING AGAINST US?

‫LET 'EM TRY.

‫- HONEY. ‫- I'M SERIOUS.

‫LET THEM TRY.

‫THIS IS ABOUT ‫WHAT HAPPENED TO US.

‫THE ONLY WAY THAT HOSPITAL ‫IS EVER GONNA CHANGE

‫IS IF IT COSTS THEM, ‫AND IT COSTS THEM BIG.

‫THAT'S THE WAY ‫THESE THINGS WORK. ‫TRUST ME.

‫* MY MIND IS LIKE ‫ A HEAVY HAND *

‫* ALWAYS MAKING MORE ‫ OF WHAT REALLY HAPPENED *

‫* A CRITICAL IMAGINATION

‫* ALWAYS WORKING OVERTIME...

‫Bay: ‫ NO WAY.

‫GREAT.

‫WHAT FOR? ‫WE'LL NEVER FIND ‫THE CAR IN THERE.

‫AND EVEN IF WE DO, ‫IT WON'T DO US ANY GOOD.

‫I HOPE THAT'S SIGN LANGUAGE

‫FOR "BECAUSE THERE'S ‫A WIZARD IN THERE

‫WHO WILL MAKE ‫ALL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE."

‫* AWAKEN MY MIND

‫* AWAKEN MY MIND

‫* OPEN MY EYES

‫* FREE MY MIND, ‫ AWAKEN MY MIND *

‫* AWAKEN MY MIND ‫ AND OPEN MY EYES. *

‫LOOK, THERE. ‫I THINK THAT'S ‫THE LICENSE PLATE.

‫THERE'S NOTHING HERE.

‫I DON'T KNOW WHAT ‫I WAS THINKING.

‫THAT WE DRIVE UP ‫TO MY DAD'S HOUSE

‫AND HE'D THROW OPEN ‫HIS ARMS AND BE LIKE, ‫"THERE YOU ARE.

‫I'VE BEEN WAITING ‫FOR YOU FOR 16 YEARS."

‫I'M SORRY.

‫YOU KNOW WHAT'S AMAZING?

‫YOU ARE THE BEST ‫LISTENER I KNOW.

‫( indistinct )

‫- ( horn honks ) ‫- ( tires screech )

‫- ( gasping ) ‫- Driver: WHAT THE HELL ‫ ARE YOU THINKING?

‫WHY DON'T YOU WATCH ‫WHERE YOU'RE GOING?

‫ARE YOU OKAY, DAPHNE?

‫ARE YOU OKAY?

‫I GOTTA SAY, ‫KATHRYN WAS RIGHT.

‫THESE MISSION HILLS LADIES ‫ARE GREAT TIPPERS.

‫THE DAYS OF PAN DULCE ‫AND GERANIUMS INSTEAD OF CASH

‫ARE OVER!

‫WHY DIDN'T YOU GET ME ‫THE COCHLEAR?

‫WHAT?

‫DID YOU CONSIDER IT ‫FOR ME?

‫OF COURSE.

‫I MEAN, BEFORE I MET ‫MELODY AND EMMETT

‫AND LEARNED BETTER.

‫DO YOU THINK IT'S ‫TOO LATE FOR ME?

‫I MEAN, I KNOW ‫IT WORKS BETTER

‫IF YOU GET IT ‫WHEN YOU'RE LITTLE.

‫WELL, THAT'S TRUE, ‫BUT IT'S NOT IMPOSSIBLE.

‫IF YOU WANT IT,

‫WE CAN LOOK INTO IT.

‫DID SOMETHING HAPPEN TODAY?

‫I ALMOST GOT RUN OVER.

‫WHAT? HONEY, YOU ‫HAVE TO BE CAREFUL.

‫I KNOW. ‫I USUALLY AM.

‫AND I ACCIDENTALLY ‫STARTED A FIRE ‫IN COOKING CLASS

‫BECAUSE I COULDN'T ‫HEAR THE BELL.

‫'CAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE ‫TIMERS WITH LIGHTS.

‫NEXT TIME, ‫YOU JUST BRING YOUR OWN.

‫I CAN'T ALWAYS ‫BRING MY OWN DEAF ‫STUFF EVERYWHERE.

‫OF COURSE YOU CAN.

‫YOU COMPENSATE. ‫YOU WORK TWICE AS HARD, ‫LIKE YOU ALWAYS DO.

‫WHAT IF I DON'T WANNA ‫WORK TWICE AS HARD ‫AND COMPENSATE?

‫WHAT IF I JUST WANT

‫TO HAVE IT A LITTLE ‫EASIER, BE MORE LIKE ‫EVERYONE ELSE?

‫TOO BAD,

‫BECAUSE YOU NEVER WILL BE.

‫WHO BROUGHT IT UP?

‫JOHN?

‫KATHRYN?

‫SHE WAS JUST ASKING.

‫IT'S OKAY. ‫ SHE'S ALLOWED TO ASK.

‫SHE'S JUST CURIOUS. ‫ALL HEARING PEOPLE ‫ARE CURIOUS ABOUT IT.

‫YOU ARE PART ‫OF AN AMAZING COMMUNITY.

‫YOU HAVE YOUR OWN LANGUAGE ‫AND HISTORY.

‫YOU GET A COCHLEAR ‫AND SUDDENLY YOU'RE NOWHERE.

‫YOU'RE NOT DEAF, ‫NOT HEARING.

‫I KNOW, I KNOW, ‫AND I DON'T NEED

‫THE DEAF PRIDE ‫SPEECH RIGHT NOW.

‫YOU WANT ME TO TALK ‫TO THEM?

‫NO. PLEASE, NO.

‫( sighs )

‫I GUESS SOMEONE ‫PLAYED GUITAR.

‫( camera shutter clicks )

‫WHOA, WHOA, DUDE. ‫SLOW DOWN.

‫YOU MIGHT AS WELL ‫BE SPEAKING RUSSIAN.

‫DAPHNE, YOU,

‫WERE SHORT.

‫DAPHNE AND YOU WERE KIDS. ‫YOU WERE KIDS.

‫YOU FOUND A GUITAR. ‫YOU OPENED A GUITAR CASE.

‫YOU SAW-- ‫YOU DIDN'T SEE A GUITAR.

‫THIS IS THE MOST ROCKING ‫GAME OF CHARADES EVER. ‫SORRY. KEEP GOING.

‫SOMEONE WALKED IN.

‫R-- MY R. REGINA.

‫REGINA WALKED IN ‫AND SAW YOU GUYS

‫AND FREAKED OUT.

‫THEN WHAT HAPPENED?

‫WHAT? NO, COME ON. ‫YOU DON'T KNOW ‫ANYTHING ELSE?

‫YOU CAN'T GUESS ‫OR SOMETHING?

‫COME ON, ‫MORE INFORMATION. ‫MORE.

‫SHE TOOK THE GUITAR ‫CASE AWAY.

‫OKAY, SO MAYBE ‫THE GUITAR CASE

‫IS MY DAD'S AND MAYBE ‫THE STUFF INSIDE

‫COULD HELP ME FIND HIM.

‫YOU CAN DRIVE ‫AND OPEN THINGS.

‫GARAGE, YOUR GARAGE.

‫OKAY, REGINA,

‫SHE LEFT BOXES.

‫BOXES, SHE HAS BOXES ‫IN YOUR GARAGE.

‫MAYBE THE GUITAR CASE ‫IS THERE.

‫COULD WE GO LOOK NOW?

‫TOMORROW? ‫IT'S A DATE.

‫BUT YOU HAVE TO WAIT ‫TILL IT'S DARK AND ‫EVERYBODY'S GONE HOME.

‫REALLY? ‫I THOUGHT BROAD ‫DAYLIGHT MIGHT BE BETTER.

‫HEY, LISTEN TO ME. ‫I'M SERIOUS.

‫YOU CAN'T SCREW THIS UP, ‫ALL RIGHT?

‫NOW THIS WILL GET YOU ‫INTO THE SOUTH ENTRANCE ‫OF THE SCHOOL.

‫HE STAYS LOGGED ON ‫SO YOU DON'T NEED ‫A PASSWORD OR ANYTHING.

‫WHERE'D YOU GET THIS?

‫MONEY TALKS, ESPECIALLY ‫TO AN OVERWORKED JANITOR

‫WHO THINKS WE'RE ALL ‫A BUNCH OF SPOILED BRATS.

‫WELL, WE KIND OF ARE. ‫I MEAN, WE'RE STEALING TESTS.

‫SHH! ‫JUST SCAN IT IN

‫AND I'LL GET IT ‫TO OUR CUSTOMERS.

‫HOW MUCH ARE YOU CHARGING?

‫- $1,000. ‫- $1,000?

‫LISTEN, DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ‫HOW LAZY THESE DUMB-ASSES ARE.

‫- THEY'D RATHER PAY THAN STUDY. ‫- LUCKY FOR US, I GUESS.

‫HEY, ARE YOU WUSSING OUT ‫ON ME?

‫LISTEN, HINCKLEY IS ‫GOING TO PUT MY ASS ‫IN A SLING

‫IF I DON'T PAY.

‫I'M NOT WUSSING OUT.

‫IF YOU HAD MY 10 GRAND, ‫YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO DO THIS,

‫BUT YOU DON'T.

‫( sighs )

‫( knocks )

‫COME IN.

‫- HI. ‫- HI.

‫I HAVE TO STUFF ‫500 ENVELOPES BY TOMORROW.

‫GOD KNOWS WHY I VOLUNTEER ‫FOR THESE THINGS ‫ALL THE TIME.

‫I WAS GONNA MAKE UP ‫SOME REASON FOR BEING HERE.

‫I THOUGHT ABOUT LIGHT BULBS ‫OR TRASH BAGS.

‫YOU'RE WELCOME TO BOTH.

‫I PROMISED DAPHNE ‫I WOULDN'T SAY ANYTHING.

‫THIS IS ABOUT ‫THE COCHLEAR CONVERSATION?

‫SHE NEVER WANTED ONE BEFORE. ‫NOW SUDDENLY WITH YOU TWO...

‫I JUST THINK IT'S WORTH ‫A FAMILY CONVERSATION

‫ABOUT THE PROS ‫AND THE CONS.

‫DO YOU KNOW THAT THEY ‫HAVE TO CUT OPEN HER ‫BRAIN TO INSTALL IT?

‫DO YOU KNOW THAT ‫IT'S PERMANENT?

‫THEY CAN'T REMOVE IT ‫AND THE LONG-TERM RISKS ‫ARE UNKNOWN.

‫HOLD ON, HOLD ON ‫I WAS JUST ASKING ‫A QUESTION LIKE I WOULD

‫ABOUT ANY TREATMENT.

‫IT'S NOT A TREATMENT. ‫SHE'S NOT SICK.

‫I JUST-- ‫I DON'T UNDERSTAND

‫WHY YOU DIDN'T GET IT ‫FOR HER WHEN SHE WAS LITTLE. ‫SHE WAS A BABY.

‫SHE COULDN'T ASK FOR IT. ‫YOU'RE HER MOTHER.

‫WHAT KIND OF A MOTHER DOESN'T ‫WANT HER CHILD TO HEAR?

‫- YOU ARE NOT GETTING IT. ‫- TELL ME, WHAT AM I ‫ NOT GETTING?

‫DAPHNE IS THE ONE ‫DOING ALL THE WORK HERE.

‫SHE SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE. ‫SHE READS YOUR LIPS.

‫YOU'VE MADE NO EFFORT ‫TO MEET HER HALFWAY.

‫AND NOW YOU WANNA HAVE ‫HER SURGICALLY ALTERED

‫TO MAKE SURE ‫YOU NEVER HAVE TO.

‫I JUST WANT ‫WHAT'S BEST FOR HER.

‫THEN STOP ASKING HER ‫TO CHANGE.

‫USE THESE. ‫THE SOONER YOU ‫LEARN HER LANGUAGE,

‫THE SOONER YOU WILL GET ‫TO KNOW THE INCREDIBLE ‫PERSON

‫THAT YOU GAVE BIRTH TO.

‫DON'T YOU STILL NEED THOSE?

‫NO.

‫I THINK I'M DONE ‫WITH THAT CLASS.

‫WHAT HAPPENED?

‫WILKE MAKE ONE TOO MANY JOKES ‫ABOUT BRAISING YOUR LOINS?

‫YOU DIDN'T HEAR ‫ABOUT THE DEAF GIRL

‫WHO ALMOST GOT RUN OVER ‫IN THE STUDENT PARKING LOT?

‫NO, ARE YOU OKAY?

‫OR THE FIRE I ALMOST ‫STARTED IN COOKING

‫'CAUSE I COULDN'T ‫HEAR THE BELL?

‫NO.

‫GUESS YOU'RE NOT ‫ESSENTIAL TO BUCKNER HALL ‫GOSSIP AS YOU THOUGHT.

‫REALLY? ‫NO ONE TOLD YOU?

‫LAST WEEK, MY FRIEND ‫CAVON STAPLED HIS FINGER

‫TO HIS SPANISH TEST.

‫JENNA GLUCHINSKI ‫WET HERSELF IN BAND

‫BECAUSE THE DIRECTOR ‫WOULD LET HER GO PEE BEFORE ‫THE HALFTIME PERFORMANCE.

‫OH, AND SOME IDIOT ALMOST ‫ELECTROCUTED HIMSELF ‫IN SHOP CLASS.

‫OKAY, OKAY. ‫YOU CAN STOP.

‫THANKS.

‫BESIDES, YOU NEVER ‫STRUCK ME AS THE KIND ‫OF PERSON

‫WHO CARED WHAT PEOPLE ‫THOUGHT OF YOU.

‫TRUTH IS I DON'T REALLY ‫HAVE THE BEST MEMORIES

‫OF GOING TO ‫A HEARING SCHOOL.

‫AND I THINK ALL THIS ‫IS JUST BRINGING IT BACK.

‫WHAT HAPPENED?

‫LET'S JUST SAY

‫THIRD GRADE GIRLS ‫CAN BE PRETTY HORRIBLE.

‫THEY CALLED ME RETARDED.

‫I NEVER GOT A SINGLE ‫BIRTHDAY INVITATION ‫OR VALENTINE.

‫I ATE LUNCH ALONE ‫EVERY SINGLE DAY.

‫IT MIGHT SOUND SILLY NOW, ‫BUT WHEN YOU'RE EIGHT--

‫IT DOESN'T SOUND SILLY.

‫I USED TO BEG MY MOM ‫NOT TO MAKE ME GO BACK.

‫AND THEN ONE DAY

‫JUST AS THE GIRLS ‫WERE STARTING IN ‫ON ME AGAIN,

‫EMMETT WALKED BY ‫ON THE WAY HOME ‫FROM HIS SCHOOL.

‫EIGHT-YEAR-OLD EMMETT.

‫HE RAN UP TO THEM ‫AND HE STARTED TO SCREAM

‫AND HE JUST KEPT SCREAMING ‫RIGHT IN THEIR FACE.

‫IF YOU'VE NEVER HEARD ‫A DEAF PERSON SCREAM BEFORE,

‫IT'S PRETTY SCARY, ‫SO I'VE BEEN TOLD.

‫THE GIRLS WERE TERRIFIED.

‫IT WAS LIKE THE WORLD ‫JUST FROZE.

‫AND THEN HE STOPPED ‫AND SAID--

‫THE ONLY TIME I'VE ‫EVER KNOWN HIM TO SPEAK--

‫HE SAID, "DON'T YOU EVER

‫TALK TO HER AGAIN."

‫THEN HE GRABBED MY HAND ‫AND TOOK ME AWAY.

‫TOOK ME TO HIS HOUSE ‫TO MELODY,

‫AND HE EXPLAINED ‫WHAT HAPPENED

‫USING HIS HANDS.

‫I HAD NEVER SEEN ‫SIGN LANGUAGE BEFORE.

‫IT WAS--

‫INCREDIBLE.

‫SHE GAVE ME A BIG HUG ‫AND MARCHED ME BACK ‫TO MY HOUSE

‫AND SAT MY MOM DOWN ‫AND SET HER STRAIGHT.

‫TOLD HER ABOUT DEAF SCHOOLS.

‫SAID WE BOTH HAD ‫TO LEARN HOW TO SIGN.

‫EVERYTHING CHANGED ‫AFTER THAT.

‫( cell phone beeps )

‫- EVERYTHING OKAY? ‫- YEAH.

‫DO YOU NEED TO GO?

‫YEAH.

‫IT'S OKAY, GO.

‫I JUST HAVE TO SAY

‫IF YOU CAN SURVIVE ‫ALL THAT,

‫BUCKNER REALLY SHOULDN'T BE ‫THAT BIG OF A DEAL.

‫I HOPE YOU STAY.

‫THANKS.

‫HEY, BUD. ‫DINNER READY?

‫I THINK SO.

‫BUT YOU'RE NOT HERE ‫ABOUT DINNER.

‫WHAT'S UP?

‫I GOT INTO SOME TROUBLE

‫AND I NEED SOME HELP.

‫WHAT KIND OF TROUBLE?

‫WHAT KIND OF HELP?

‫HOPEFULLY THE KIND ‫THAT DOESN'T INVOLVE ‫YOU YELLING AT ME.

‫DOES IT INVOLVE A GIRL?

‫NO.

‫- IS IT MONEY? ‫- YES.

‫POKER?

‫TOBY, WE'VE BEEN ‫HERE BEFORE.

‫I'M ALL FOR YOU ‫AND YOUR SISTER HAVING FUN

‫AS LONG AS IT DOESN'T ‫GET OUT OF CONTROL.

‫YOUR MOM AND I CANNOT ‫ KEEP BAILING YOU OUT EVERY--

‫LOOK AT ME, SON.

‫CANNOT KEEP BAILING YOU OUT ‫ EVERY TIME YOU GO TOO FAR.

‫YOU HAVE TO START ‫TAKING RESPONSIBILITY ‫FOR YOUR OWN MISTAKES.

‫YES, SIR. ‫I'M SORRY.

‫WHAT KIND OF DAMAGE ARE ‫WE TALKING ABOUT HERE?

‫$500, $1,000?

‫$2,000.

‫$3,000? PLEASE TELL ME ‫ WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT ‫ MORE THAN $3,000.

‫NO, WE'RE NOT.

‫YOU KNOW WHAT, DAD? ‫YOU'RE RIGHT.

‫I SHOULD TAKE CARE ‫OF THIS ON MY OWN.

‫I'VE ALWAYS FOUND ‫THAT'S THE BEST WAY ‫TO LEARN A LESSON.

‫Kathryn: ‫ JOHN, DINNER!

‫OKAY, BE RIGHT THERE.

‫HI.

‫READY?

‫TOBY'S WASHING UP. ‫WHERE'S BAY?

‫SHE'S AT SIMONE'S.

‫HONEY, YOU REMEMBER WHEN ‫TOBY GOT BIT BY THAT DOG?

‫YEAH, SURE DO.

‫THAT E.R. DOCTOR ‫WAS AMAZING.

‫TOBY WAS HYSTERICAL. ‫WE WERE HYSTERICAL.

‫AND SHE SOMEHOW MANAGED ‫TO CALM US ALL DOWN.

‫SHE SURE DID.

‫HONEY, YOU KNOW, I'D HATE ‫FOR HER NOT TO BE THERE

‫IF WE OR SOMEBODY ELSE ‫NEEDED HER.

‫SWEETIE, THEY HAVE ‫MALPRACTICE INSURANCE.

‫I KNOW.

‫WHAT IF IT'S NOT ENOUGH? ‫WHAT IF THEY HAVE TO MAKE ‫UP FOR THE REST

‫BY CUTTING OFF GRANTS ‫OR LAYING OFF DOCTORS?

‫- IT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN. ‫- HOW CAN YOU BE SO SURE?

‫I JUST WANT THEM ‫TO SAY I'M SORRY.

‫WHAT?

‫YEAH, THAT'S IT.

‫NO MORE CRAP ABOUT HOW ‫THESE THINGS JUST HAPPEN.

‫NO MORE POINTING FINGERS ‫AT US. NO MORE MINIMIZING ‫WHAT WE'VE BEEN THROUGH.

‫I JUST WANT ‫A DAMN APOLOGY.

‫SWEETIE.

‫AND GUESS WHAT? ‫THAT IS NEVER GONNA HAPPEN.

‫YOU KNOW WHY? ‫IT IS ALWAYS GOING TO BE ‫A CONDITION OF THE SETTLEMENT

‫NO APOLOGY, ‫NO ADMISSION OF GUILT.

‫SO WHAT ARE YOU ‫GONNA DO?

‫I DON'T WANNA BANKRUPT ‫ANY HOSPITAL,

‫SO TAKE THE SETTLEMENT.

‫THAT'S GREAT.

‫IT'S NOT JUST BECAUSE ‫OF WHAT DALE SAID, IS IT?

‫I'M NOT AFRAID OF DALE.

‫NOW YOU'VE BEEN TALKING ‫ABOUT THIS FOR A LONG TIME,

‫AND I HEAR YOU.

‫WE MAKE OUR POINT,

‫AND WE MOVE ON ‫WITH OUR LIVES.

‫I LOVE YOU.

‫THEY'RE CHOCOLATE ‫ MOUSSE PETIT FOURS.

‫MMM! OH MY GOD. ‫THESE ARE DELICIOUS.

‫OH, GOOD. ‫YOU TOLD HER WE'D TAKE ‫HER NUMBER, RIGHT?

‫- IT'S DONE? ‫- THE HOSPITAL JUST WITHDREW ‫ THEIR OFFER.

‫WHAT DO YOU MEAN ‫WITHDREW IT?

‫I MEAN, THEY DON'T ‫WANT TO SETTLE ANYMORE.

‫THEY WANT TO GO TO TRIAL.

‫IN FRONT OF A JUDGE AND JURY? ‫WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT?

‫SHE SAID IT WAS ‫OPEN AND SHUT.

‫SHE THINKS ‫THEY FOUND SOMETHING.

‫SOMETHING THAT THEY ‫CAN USE AGAINST US.

‫LIKE WHAT?

‫I HAVE NO IDEA.

‫( bell rings )

‫- HEY, MAN, SOMETHING'S UP. ‫- WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

‫LISTEN, ‫DID YOU TELL ANYBODY ‫ABOUT THE THING?

‫WHAT? ‫NO, OF COURSE NOT. ‫DO THEY KNOW?
