‫PREVIOUSLY ON ‫ "SWITCHED AT BIRTH"...

‫- THAT'S GREAT! ‫- ARE YOU MS. MUNOZ?

‫I HAD A BABY HERE ‫16 YEARS AGO.

‫I REMEMBER PUTTING HER ‫IN HER CRIB, AND I THOUGHT ‫IT WAS THE RIGHT ONE.

‫IF IT WAS ME, I'M SORRY.

‫HELLO.

‫IT'S REALLY NICE ‫TO MEET YOU.

‫I WENT OUT ON A LIMB TO PUT YOU ‫ON THIS TEAM AND I'M STARTING ‫TO REGRET THAT DECISION.

‫YOU PUT ME ON THE TEAM ‫BECAUSE I'M DEAF

‫AND THE SCHOOL GETS ‫DISABILITY FUNDING.

‫OKAY, SO WHAT DID ‫YOU REALLY THINK ‫OF BAY'S WORK?

‫I'M LOOKING FOR ARTISTS THAT ‫HAVE SOMETHING UNIQUE TO SAY.

‫THAT PAINTING OF YOURS ‫WOULD GO GREAT IN A SHOW ‫I'M PUTTING TOGETHER.

‫I THINK IT WOULD ‫REALLY FIT IN WELL.

‫I HEARD WE'RE GOING UP ‫AGAINST EACH OTHER.

‫TELL HIM YOU DON'T WANT ‫TO GO OUT FOR GUARD.

‫I'M NOT DOING THAT.

‫WOW. I GUESS ‫YOU'RE NOT THE FRIEND ‫THAT I THOUGHT YOU WERE.

‫( static )

‫( clears throat )

‫( static )

‫"PUT THE TOWEL

‫ON THE TABLE."

‫PUT. PUT.

‫( static )

‫"PLEASE, MAY I HAVE ‫SOME PIE?"

‫( door closes )

‫- "PLEASE MAY I"-- ‫- HEY.

‫OLIVIA LET ME IN.

‫I'M SORRY.

‫HEY, YOU SOUNDED ‫REALLY GOOD.

‫JUST KEEP GOING. ‫CAN I HELP?

‫WELL, I MEAN--

‫YOU SPOKE TO ME BEFORE, ‫SO I THOUGHT...

‫RIGHT.

‫I WAS THE SAME WAY ‫ABOUT ICE SKATING--

‫YOU KNOW, ‫PRIVATE ABOUT PRACTICING.

‫- YEAH. NO, I KNOW. ‫- ( cellphone ringing )

‫- OW! THAT'S LOUD. ‫- ( static )

‫SORRY.

‫UGH. NOT YOU AGAIN.

‫HOW IT GOING? ‫BOTHERING YOU?

‫IT GETS EASIER.

‫YOU DIDN'T DO ‫SPEECH THERAPY, DID YOU?

‫NO NO NO, BUT I DID ‫HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO SIGN

‫AND THAT WAS HARD ENOUGH.

‫YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST ‫REALLY IMPORTANT THAT ‫YOU STAY RELAXED.

‫THIS'LL HELP.

‫ONE SHOT OF THAT...

‫( snaps ) ‫YOU'RE IN THE ZONE. ‫I MEAN, YOU CAN'T LEARN

‫IF YOU'RE TOO TENSE, RIGHT?

‫CHEERS.

‫UH, WHAT IS ‫SHE GONNA GIVE YOU

‫FOR YOUR S.A.T.s?

‫HEROIN?

‫( theme music playing )

‫( rock music playing )

‫- SIMONE! ‫- Medlock: COME ON, ‫ SINCLAIR, MAKE THAT PASS!

‫- SIMONE, I'M OPEN! ‫- WATCH THAT POINT GUARD, ‫ SINCLAIR.

‫VASQUEZ IS OPEN.

‫WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?

‫( whistle tweets )

‫I CAN'T DO MY JOB ‫AS POINT GUARD IF ‫YOU DON'T GIVE ME THE BALL.

‫- YOU WEREN'T OPEN. ‫ MEGHAN WAS ALL OVER YOU. ‫- SHE WAS LIKE 10 FEET AWAY.

‫- SHE'S REALLY FAST. ‫- Medlock: WE DON'T ‫ HAVE ALL DAY.

‫LOOK, CAN'T WE WORK ‫TOGETHER ON THE COURT?

‫WE'RE BOTH STILL ‫ON THE SAME TEAM, RIGHT?

‫ABSOLUTELY. ‫NO WORRIES.

‫- Medlock: COME ON, GIRLS. ‫- ( whistle tweets )

‫* YOU AND ME, ‫ LET'S GET IT ON *

‫* DID YOU HEAR ‫ WHAT I SAID? BOOM BOOM! *

‫( sighs )

‫YOU HAVE AMAZING POWERS ‫OF CONCENTRATION.

‫HOW LONG HAVE ‫YOU BEEN STANDING THERE?

‫- HOUR, HOUR AND A HALF. ‫- ( laughs )

‫I JUST-- I JUST KNOW ‫THAT A MINUTE TILT

‫ONE WAY OR THE OTHER IS ‫GONNA MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE

‫BETWEEN PEOPLE LOVING THEM ‫OR HATING THEM.

‫I'VE HEARD THE PEOPLE ‫OF KANSAS CITY ARE VERY ‫TILT CONSCIOUS.

‫YOUR WORK IS ‫EXTRAORDINARY.

‫( sighs ) ‫JUST-- I HAVEN'T DONE ‫ANYTHING NEW IN 13 YEARS.

‫I MEAN, ‫I'VE SKETCHED BUT--

‫I PROBABLY SHOULDN'T ‫HAVE TOLD YOU THAT.

‫- OH HEY, NO JUDGMENT. ‫- YEAH.

‫THAT'S HOW YOU GET ‫EVERYBODY TO TELL YOU ‫THEIR SECRETS, ISN'T IT?

‫I TOOK A KIND ‫OF CAREER APTITUDE TEST ‫IN HIGH SCHOOL.

‫IT'S SUPPOSED TO TELL YOU ‫WHAT PROFESSIONS YOU'RE ‫BEST SUITED FOR.

‫- LET ME GUESS-- PSYCHIATRIST. ‫- CLERGYMAN.

‫- ( both laugh ) ‫- OH MY.

‫ARE YOUR DAUGHTERS GONNA ‫COME TO THE OPENING?

‫OH, THAT STILL SOUNDS ‫SO STRANGE--

‫"DAUGHTERS."

‫UM, DAPHNE IS COMING,

‫BUT I HAVEN'T ASKED BAY YET. ‫THAT'S A LITTLE TRICKIER.

‫MMM. WELL, I'M GLAD ‫I GET TO MEET DAPHNE ‫AND I HOPE BAY COMES.

‫THERE'S SOME STUFF HERE ‫I THINK SHE'LL REALLY ‫RESPOND TO.

‫MMM.

‫YOU KNOW, I DO THINK

‫THAT WOULD ‫ACTUALLY LOOK BETTER...

‫- WITH A LITTLE TILT. ‫- MMM.

‫Kathryn: ‫ BUT THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.

‫THE HOSPITAL ‫CAN'T FIRE YOU.

‫THERE ARE ‫WHISTLE-BLOWER LAWS ‫TO PROTECT YOU.

‫AND THEY KNOW THAT, ‫WHICH IS WHY THEY'RE SAYING

‫IT'S BECAUSE I WAS LATE ‫TWICE LAST MONTH.

‫THEY'RE CALLING IT ‫"ERRATIC WORK HABITS."

‫- THAT IS RIDICULOUS. ‫- THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING.

‫WELL, MAYBE YOU CAN ‫GET ANOTHER JOB.

‫THERE'S ALWAYS A DEMAND ‫FOR NURSES, RIGHT?

‫I'VE SUBMITTED ‫25 APPLICATIONS

‫TO OTHER ‫HEALTHCARE FACILITIES.

‫MOST OF THEM WON'T EVEN ‫GIVE ME AN INTERVIEW.

‫AN H.R. PERSON ‫FINALLY TOLD ME-- ‫OFF THE RECORD, OF COURSE--

‫WORD IS OUT THAT ‫I'M A TROUBLEMAKER.

‫YOU'RE NOT A TROUBLEMAKER.

‫YOU'RE JUST HOLDING ‫THE HOSPITAL ACCOUNTABLE ‫FOR OVERWORKING THEIR STAFF.

‫THAT'S NOT HOW ‫THEY SEE IT.

‫I HAVE AN INTERVIEW ‫THIS AFTERNOON

‫FOR AN ULTRASOUND ‫TECH POSITION.

‫- BUT YOU'RE A NURSE. ‫- I NEED A JOB.

‫AND I JUST WANTED ‫TO TELL YOU PERSONALLY ‫THAT IF I DON'T GET THIS,

‫I'M GONNA BACK OUT ‫OF THE LAWSUIT.

‫OUR CASE WILL ‫FALL APART WITHOUT YOU.

‫MAYBE YOU'LL-- ‫JUST GIVE ME A CHANCE TO ‫TALK TO OUR LAWYER BEFORE--

‫I'M SORRY, MRS. KENNISH, ‫BUT I HAVE TO TAKE CARE ‫OF MY FAMILY.

‫MAYBE IF I BACK OUT, ‫SOMEBODY WILL BE WILLING ‫TO GIVE ME A JOB.

‫WHAT UP, ‫FEMALE ATHLETE ‫OF THE MONTH?

‫- WHAT? ‫- YOU DIDN'T SEE ‫ THE BULLETIN BOARD

‫- OUTSIDE THE LOCKER ROOMS? ‫- NO, I WAS KINDA DISTRACTED.

‫- THINKING ABOUT ME, HUH? ‫- ACTUALLY, NO.

‫AND I AM NOT ‫OFFENDED BY THAT,

‫BECAUSE I TOO WAS NAMED ‫ATHLETE OF THE MONTH--

‫MALE, OF COURSE. ‫LACROSSE.

‫SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN, ‫ATHLETE OF THE MONTH?

‫DO WE GET A CERTIFICATE ‫OR SOMETHING?

‫A CERTIFICATE IS ONLY ‫THE BEGINNING, MY FRIEND.

‫WE ALSO GET ‫A DELICIOUS STEAK DINNER--

‫I'LL EAT YOURS, ‫YOU CAN HAVE MY SIDES--

‫SOME KANSAS CITY ‫ROYALS TICKETS

‫AND ENOUGH FREE XS RUSH ‫TO FILL A HOT TUB.

‫EXCESS WHAT?

‫NO, X.S. RUSH-- ‫THE SPORT DRINK.

‫THEY'RE LIKE ‫A BIG CORPORATE SPONSOR.

‫ALL WE HAVE TO DO ‫IN EXCHANGE FOR OUR SWAG IS

‫TAKE ONE OF THEIR GUYS ‫ON A LITTLE TOUR ‫OF THE SCHOOL.

‫GREAT.

‫YOU'RE PROBABLY GONNA ‫NEED TO MUSTER A LITTLE MORE ‫ENTHUSIASM FOR THE TOUR.

‫( sighs ) ‫SIMONE IS MAKING ‫MY LIFE MISERABLE.

‫I'M PRETTY SURE BEING NAMED ‫ATHLETE OF THE MONTH ISN'T ‫GONNA HELP WITH THAT.

‫WHATEVER. IT'S SIMONE.

‫ALL I WANT TO DO IS BE A PART ‫OF A GOOD BASKETBALL TEAM.

‫I JUST WANT IT TO BE FUN.

‫THEN YOU SHOULD FOCUS ‫ON WILKE AND SWAG

‫AND POSSIBLY RECONSIDER ‫THAT XS RUSH HOT TUB IDEA.

‫- ( snorts ) ‫- ( rock music playing )

‫PLEASE MAY I HAVE SOME PIE?

‫PLEASE MAY I HAVE ‫SOME PIE?

‫- PLEASE-- ‫- BAY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

‫YOU'RE GONNA ‫DAMAGE YOUR HEARING.

‫I JUST HAD THEM ON ‫FOR LIKE A MINUTE.

‫I WAS TRYING TO SEE ‫WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO TALK

‫WITHOUT BEING ABLE ‫TO HEAR YOURSELF.

‫- AND? ‫- IT'S WEIRD.

‫IT'S LIKE YOUR VOICE ‫ISN'T PART OF YOUR BODY.

‫YEAH, I USED TO PUT ‫MY HEAD UNDER THE WATER

‫IN THE BATHTUB TO SEE ‫WHAT IT WAS LIKE FOR DAPHNE.

‫YEAH.

‫( sighs )

‫SO...

‫HOW'S THE ART SHOW ‫COMING ALONG?

‫FINE.

‫YOU KNOW, I'VE BEEN ‫THINKING A LOT ABOUT IT

‫AND I WANT YOU ‫TO UNDERSTAND--

‫SERIOUSLY, IT'S FINE.

‫WOULD YOU BE ‫INTERESTED IN COMING?

‫"NEW VOICES ‫FROM THE PRAIRIE." HUH.

‫WOW. PATRICK'S IDEA?

‫I KNOW YOU'RE NOT ‫A BIG FAN OF HIS RIGHT NOW--

‫YOU DON'T HAVE TO ‫DEFEND HIM. I GET IT.

‫IT'S THE REAL WORLD. ‫SOME PEOPLE ARE CHOSEN,

‫- SOME ARE NOT. ‫- AND THOSE CHOSEN FEW ‫ ARE CONSTANTLY CHANGING.

‫SO MUCH OF THIS IS ‫LUCK AND TIMING.

‫AND ONE OF THE WAYS ‫TO IMPROVE YOUR LUCK IS ‫TO PUT YOURSELF OUT THERE,

‫GET TO KNOW THE PEOPLE ‫DOING THE CHOOSING.

‫AND BY "YOU," ‫YOU MEAN ME.

‫YES, I THINK THIS WOULD BE ‫A GREAT OPPORTUNITY

‫FOR YOU TO GET ‫AN INSIDE LOOK INTO ‫THE KANSAS CITY ART SCENE.

‫I'M NOT INVITING ‫A LOT OF PEOPLE,

‫AND IT WOULD ‫MEAN A LOT TO ME ‫IF YOU WERE THERE.

‫WELL, THEN I'LL BE THERE.

‫( sighs ) GREAT.

‫OKAY.

‫( birds chirping )

‫( rock music playing )

‫MASTER T, ‫STRUTTING IT!

‫HEY, WHAT'S UP, MAN? ‫YOU WANNA JAM?

‫I'M JUST DROPPING ‫SOME STUFF OFF TO DAPHNE. ‫HOW ABOUT TOMORROW?

‫- SURE. ‫- OH! AND AWESOME NEWS--

‫I GOT ATHLETE OF THE MONTH-- ‫HENCE THE SWAG--

‫WHICH MEANS ‫MY DAD'S SUPER-PSYCHED,

‫WHICH MEANS ‫GUITAR FACE CAN PRACTICE ‫IN MY BASEMENT AGAIN.

‫- G.F. BACK IN ACTION! ‫ * WHASSUP! ‫- OH YEAH.

‫HEY, I HEARD ‫ABOUT YOU AND SIMONE.

‫YEAH, WE-- ‫WE'VE BEEN HANGING OUT.

‫YEAH, WELL, LET ME KNOW ‫IF YOU NEED ANY POINTERS.

‫SHE CAN BE PRETTY DEMANDING, ‫IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

‫- I'M DOING ALL RIGHT, ‫ BUT THANKS. ‫- ALL RIGHT.

‫OH, AND I GUESS ‫SHE'S KINDA BEING HARD

‫ON DAPHNE ON THE TEAM.

‫SO IF IT COMES UP, ‫MAYBE ASK HER TO BACK OFF.

‫DUDE, ARE YOU REALLY ‫TRYING TO BE A REFEREE ‫IN A GIRL FIGHT?

‫CAN I GET YOU ‫A TRAINING BRA ‫WHILE YOU'RE AT IT?

‫( cellphone rings, beeps )

‫HELLO. ‫HEY, YEAH.

‫YEAH, I CAN STOP.

‫REGULAR OR DIET?

‫YES YES, ‫I AM WRITING IT DOWN.

‫YEAH, I'M KIND OF ‫BUSY RIGHT NOW. 10:15?

‫- OKAY, COOL. THANKS. ‫- ( beeps )

‫- YOU DIDN'T REALLY ‫ WRITE THAT DOWN. ‫- SHUT UP.

‫Kathryn: ‫ BRIZIA TEXTED ME ‫ THIS MORNING

‫AND IT DOESN'T SOUND ‫LIKE HER INTERVIEW ‫WENT VERY WELL.

‫MAYBE IT'S A SCAM ‫AND SHE'S LOOKING ‫FOR A HANDOUT.

‫NO, IT ISN'T ‫AND SHE IS NOT.

‫- DID SHE ASK YOU ‫ FOR MONEY? ‫- NO.

‫BUT SHE SOUNDS ‫REALLY DESPERATE. ‫WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING.

‫HONEY, WE CAN'T PAY HER ‫ANYTHING AND THE GUEST ‫HOUSE IS OCCUPIED.

‫JOHN'S RIGHT ‫ABOUT THE MONEY, KATHRYN.

‫IT'S NOT ILLEGAL, ‫BUT IF THE HOSPITAL ‫FOUND OUT,

‫THEY COULD TRY ‫TO CONVINCE THE JURY

‫THAT SHE'S ONLY ‫TESTIFYING ON OUR BEHALF ‫BECAUSE WE'RE PAYING HER.

‫BUT THAT'S NOT TRUE. ‫SHE WAS GONNA TESTIFY ‫BEFORE THEY FIRED HER.

‫IT WOULD DESTROY ‫BRIZIA'S CREDIBILITY AND OURS. ‫IT'S TOO BIG OF A RISK.

‫WELL, HOW ARE ‫THEY GONNA FIND OUT?

‫- KATHRYN! ‫- IT'S A LEGITIMATE QUESTION.

‫BANK ACCOUNTS ARE ‫EASILY TRACEABLE.

‫A BIG WITHDRAWAL ‫OR A SERIES OF SMALL ONES ‫COULD RAISE EYEBROWS.

‫FOR THE DURATION OF THIS CASE, ‫YOU HAVE TO ASSUME

‫THAT EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU ‫IS BEING SCRUTINIZED.

‫THEY JUST GAVE US THESE?

‫- THEY DO THAT EVERY MONTH? ‫- YUP.

‫AUTHENTIC DWAYNE BOWE. ‫I'M GIVING MINE TO MY DAD--

‫KEEP THAT GOODWILL COMING.

‫I'VE LOOKED AT THESE ONLINE. ‫THEY SELL FOR LIKE $200 EACH.

‫YEAH, AND THEY FROWN ON US ‫TRYING TO RESELL THEM.

‫BEEN THERE, ‫PUNISHED FOR THAT.

‫WE SHOULD PROBABLY GO OVER ‫OUR TALKING POINTS ‫FOR THE TOUR.

‫OH, I HATE TALKING ‫IN GROUPS.

‫SOMETIMES I MISS IT ‫WHEN SOMEONE ASKS A QUESTION

‫OR I GET DISTRACTED ‫WHEN THEY'RE TALKING ‫TO SOMEONE ELSE.

‫IT'S A SMALL GROUP ‫AND I'LL BE YOUR WINGMAN.

‫- STOP WORRYING. ‫ JUST THINK "PEPPY." ‫- THEY LOVE PEPPY.

‫AND WE'RE JUST SUPPOSED ‫TO BE THANKING THEM, RIGHT?

‫AND ENCOURAGING THEM ‫TO CONTINUE CONTRIBUTING.

‫WE'RE STILL A FEW ‫HUNDRED THOUSAND SHORT ‫FOR THE NEW AQUATIC CENTER.

‫- THE WHAT? ‫- AQUATIC CENTER.

‫AQUATIC CENTER?

‫THIS IS A HIGH SCHOOL, ‫NOT THE OLYMPICS.

‫I THINK YOU SHOULD ‫DO THIS BIT

‫ABOUT HOW OUR BASKETBALL ‫SCORES HAVE IMPROVED

‫SINCE WE GOT THAT ‫NEW SPRUNG FLOOR ‫IN THE GYM.

‫AND I WILL TALK ‫ABOUT THE SCOREBOARD.

‫- ( car honks ) ‫- ( chatting )

‫REGINA REALLY ‫WANTS ME TO GO

‫AND I WANNA SUPPORT HER,

‫BUT I GUESS I FEEL...

‫JEALOUS.

‫I DON'T KNOW. ‫IT WOULD JUST BE ‫SO MUCH EASIER

‫IF YOU WOULD GO WITH ME.

‫THIS IS AMAZING!

‫YEAH, BUT YOU MINIATURIZED-- ‫YOU MADE IT SMALLER.

‫( laughs ) ‫AND YOU MADE IT STICKY.

‫THIS IS AWESOME.

‫WHAT ABOUT SCHOOL?

‫HAVEN'T YOU MISSED ‫A LOT OF SCHOOL

‫SINCE YOU MOVED HERE ‫WITH YOUR DAD?

‫WHAT?

‫I DON'T KNOW.

‫MAYBE BECAUSE ‫THAT'S HOW YOU GRADUATE

‫SO YOU CAN GO TO COLLEGE

‫AND YOU CAN WORK SOMEWHERE ‫OTHER THAN A MINIMART

‫WHILE YOU WAIT ‫FOR YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY CAREER ‫TO TAKE OFF.

‫NO, IT'S JUST...

‫I'M SURPRISED.

‫( laughs )

‫ME AND MELODY-- ‫THAT'S A LAUGH.

‫HEY, MOM. ‫OH, DO YOU NEED ‫SOME HELP?

‫UH, NO, THIS IS ‫THE LAST BOX.

‫I'M DOING MY PART ‫BY DROPPING ALL THIS ‫POISONOUS STUFF OFF

‫AT THE HAZARDOUS ‫WASTE DUMP.

‫- WANNA COME? ‫- YEAH, AS MUCH FUN ‫ AS THAT SOUNDS--

‫( laughs ) YEAH.

‫WHAT'S UP? ‫WHAT DO YOU WANNA ‫TALK ABOUT?

‫UH, I JUST--

‫I HAD A QUESTION ‫ABOUT ANGELO.

‫OH, HONEY, I DON'T WANT ‫TO GET BACK INTO ALL THAT ‫RIGHT NOW, PLEASE.

‫RELAX, MOM. I'M NOT ‫IN ATTACK MODE, OKAY?

‫I JUST-- I'M WONDERING ‫WHY YOU GUYS DIDN'T CALL ‫IMMIGRATION ON HIM.

‫I GUESS IN THE END ‫WE DECIDED

‫THAT WHAT ANGELO DID ‫OR DIDN'T DO IN ITALY

‫WAS REALLY NONE ‫OF OUR BUSINESS.

‫AND MOSTLY WE KNEW ‫HOW HURT YOU'D BE ‫IF WE TURNED HIM IN.

‫- WHY? ‫- I'M JUST TRYING ‫ TO FIGURE OUT

‫THE DOs AND DON'Ts ‫OF BUTTING IN.

‫WELL, I GUESS FOR ME, ‫IT ALL DEPENDS ON

‫IF SOMEONE'S GONNA GET HURT ‫IF I DON'T INTERFERE.

‫OKAY, GOT IT.

‫WAIT, ARE YOU THINKING ‫ABOUT BUTTING IN ‫ON SOMETHING?

‫ME? NEVER. ‫ALTHOUGH, NOW THAT ‫YOU MENTION IT,

‫IF YOU REALLY DO ‫WANNA DO YOUR PART, ‫YOU SHOULD PROBABLY LEAVE

‫THE GAS-GUZZLING S.U.V. ‫AT THE DUMP TOO.

‫( door closes )

‫I THINK EMMETT ‫MIGHT BE IN TROUBLE.

‫CAN WE TALK?

‫( inhales deeply )

‫( sighs )

‫OKAY.

‫HE DOESN'T SEEM ‫TO EAT A LOT OF MEALS

‫FOR ONE THING, ‫AND HE'S MISSED ‫A LOT OF SCHOOL,

‫WHICH YOU KNOW.

‫AND...

‫HE SAID THAT HE WANTS ‫TO LEAVE SCHOOL.

‫WELL, NOT "LEAVE,"

‫DROP OUT. ‫I DON'T KNOW THAT SIGN.

‫LEAVE FOREVER.

‫HE SAID ‫HE DOESN'T NEED SCHOOL

‫TO BECOME ‫A PHOTOGRAPHER, SO...

‫I KNOW THIS IS WEIRD, ‫BUT THINK HOW BAD

‫THINGS WOULD HAVE TO BE ‫FOR ME TO COME TO YOU.

‫NOT THAT I-I-I-- ‫I WOULDN'T WANT TO CO--

‫EMMETT IS GONNA BE ‫SO MAD AT ME

‫I--

‫I JUST REALLY CARE ‫ABOUT HIM.

‫I SEE THE STARS

‫IN THE SKY.

‫( static )

‫- AH. ‫- ( cellphone buzzing )

‫( chimes )

‫I SEE THE STARS

‫IN THE SKY.

‫* IT'S RAINING HARD

‫* SOAKING WET

‫* I RUN TO MY HOUSE

‫- * TO SHINE MY SHOES... ‫- ( chattering )

‫* OUT OF THE COLD

‫* IN FROM THE NOISE

‫* DUST OFF MY BACK

‫* 'CAUSE I GOT ‫ NOTHING TO LOSE... *

‫NUH-UH-UH-UH!

‫AND ONE FOR ME ‫WITH LIME PLEASE.

‫* IT'S RAINING HARD

‫* SOAKING WET...

‫REGINA, ‫YOU LOOK WONDERFUL.

‫THE PLACE LOOKS GREAT.

‫THE PLACE ‫CLEANS UP ALL RIGHT.

‫YOUR MASKS ARE ALREADY ‫GETTING SOME INTEREST.

‫UM, THIS IS ‫MY FRIEND MELODY.

‫HEY.

‫COOL ART.

‫IT'S GREAT TO SEE YOU.

‫OH HEY, BE SURE TO CHECK OUT ‫THOSE DRESSES OVER THERE. ‫I THOUGHT OF YOU.

‫THIS ARTIST, ‫ SHE FOUND A TRUNK FULL ‫ OF OLD CLOTHES AND LETTERS

‫AND SHE ATTACHED ‫THE LETTERS TO THE DRESSES.

‫REALLY BEAUTIFUL.

‫I DREW ON ‫MY MOM'S CLOTHES ONCE.

‫- SHE TOOK ‫ MY MARKERS AWAY. ‫- ( chuckles )

‫IT SOUNDS AMAZING. ‫WE'LL CHECK IT OUT.

‫- WHERE'S DAPHNE. ‫- DAPHNE'S GOT SOMETHING ‫ AT SCHOOL,

‫SO SHE'S GONNA COME BY ‫LATER IN THE WEEK.

‫AH. WELL, I'D BETTER ‫GET BACK INTO THE FRAY.

‫THERE'S SOME COLLECTORS ‫I'D LIKE FOR YOU TO MEET.

‫I'M REALLY GLAD ‫YOU CAME.

‫IT'S GOOD TO MEET YOU.

‫SEE? I TOLD YOU ‫YOU MADE AN IMPRESSION.

‫RIGHT, 'CAUSE THERE'S ‫NO WAY THAT HE'S JUST TRYING ‫TO WIN POINTS WITH YOU.

‫SORRY. ‫INSIDE VOICE.

‫I'M GONNA GO HUNT DOWN

‫THE CALAMARI.

‫* SO I CAN DO ‫ MY TALKING... *

‫* WE'RE ALL JUST ‫ THE SAME INSIDE... *

‫( both laugh )

‫* THOUGHT I HAD YOU PINNED ‫ UNDER A LABEL *

‫- * BUT A CONVERSATION ‫ AND THIS DOOR... * ‫- ( people chatting )

‫* NO PLACE TO RUN

‫* AND NO PLACE TO HIDE

‫* EVERYONE'S ‫ SCREAMING DIVIDE *

‫* WE'VE NO PLACE TO GO ‫ AND YOU DON'T HAVE A HOME... *

‫WOW. THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.

‫IT'S REALLY PERSONAL.

‫SHE'S THAT MOM ‫WHO FOUND OUT HER DAUGHTER ‫GOT SWITCHED AT BIRTH

‫AND AND HER LIFE ‫WAS SHATTERED.

‫THERE'S ALL THIS ‫BIRTH IMAGERY,

‫HOW BLOODLINES SORT OF DEFINE ‫WHO WE ARE. I MEAN...

‫* AND YOU DON'T HAVE A HOME

‫* WE'RE ALL ‫ JUST THE SAME INSIDE *

‫* WE'RE ALL JUST ‫ THE SAME INSIDE *

‫* WE'RE ALL ‫ JUST THE SAME INSIDE *

‫* WE'RE ALL JUST

‫* THE SAME

‫* WE'RE ALL JUST

‫* THE SAME.

‫( crickets chirping )

‫HE LINES IT UP, ‫HE SHOOTS

‫AND-- BOOM-- DIRECT HIT.

‫THE NEW XS RUSH ‫SCOREBOARD LIGHTS UP ‫LIKE THE 4th OF JULY

‫AND THE CROWD GOES WILD.

‫THANK YOU, ‫MR. WILKERSON.

‫NO, SERIOUSLY, ‫THAT SCOREBOARD IS ‫GOING TO BE AMAZING.

‫THANK YOU SO MUCH ‫FOR SUPPORTING BUCKNER.

‫- MM-HMM. ‫- IT'S SUPPORT ‫ FROM COMPANIES LIKE YOURS

‫THAT KEEP BUCKNER ‫AT THE FOREFRONT ‫OF ATHLETICS.

‫NOT TO MENTION ‫AWESOME BOOSTERS. ‫UP HIGH, MR. J.

‫SEE, WE LOVE ‫THAT BUCKNER HALL SPIRIT.

‫WAIT TILL YOU SEE US ‫AT STATE THIS YEAR. ‫WE'RE TOTALLY GONNA DOMINATE.

‫DAPHNE'S ONE OF OUR ‫PROUDEST NEW ADDITIONS ‫TO OUR GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAM

‫- GO BULLDOGS! ‫- TERRIFIC. NOW IS THAT-- ‫ ARE YOU ON SCHOLARSHIP?

‫NO, I DO PART-TIME HERE.

‫I DO ALL MY ACADEMICS ‫AT CARLTON SCHOOL ‫FOR THE DEAF.

‫ACTUALLY, CARLTON HAS ‫A BASKETBALL TEAM AS WELL.

‫CAN YOU HELP ‫PUBLIC SCHOOLS?

‫- 'CAUSE THEY COULD ‫ TOTALLY USE YOUR SUPPORT. ‫- Man: YEAH, UH--

‫IN FACT, THEIR BASKETBALL ‫TEAM IS ABOUT TO BE CUT

‫'CAUSE THEY DON'T ‫HAVE ENOUGH MONEY.

‫YEAH, AND THAT'S WHY ‫YOU'RE PLAYING FOR BUCKNER.

‫- YEAH YEAH. ‫- ( all chuckle )

‫YEAH, BUCKNER'S GREAT,

‫BUT CARLTON TOTALLY ‫CHANGED MY LIFE.

‫YOU TALK ABOUT TEAMWORK, ‫SPIRIT? THAT PLACE HAS IT ‫LIKE NOWHERE ELSE.

‫THEY COULD ‫REALLY USE YOUR HELP.

‫HEY, WE ONLY HAVE ‫ONE SQUASH COURT,

‫- SO DON'T TELL US ‫ ABOUT HARDSHIP. ‫- ( boosters laughing )

‫HEY, COME ON. ‫LET'S GO SHOW YOU WHERE

‫THE NEW ATHLETIC FACILITY ‫IS GONNA BE.

‫* BOTTLES ARE ‫ STRUCK OF LIGHT *

‫* AND EVERY TIME YOU LOOK

‫* EVERY TIME YOU LISTEN...

‫UH, I MEAN, ‫THESE ARE PRETTY COOL.

‫( laughs )

‫KIND OF ADULT VIDEO SHOOT

‫MEETS CORPORATE FUNDRAISER.

‫- AH. ‫- ( both laugh )

‫- YOU'RE FUNNY. ‫- OH LOOK, IT'S EMMETT...

‫( inhales sharply )

‫AND CAMERON AND OLIVIA.

‫OH.

‫- ( sighs ) ‫- HEY.

‫SO THAT'S IT? ‫YOU'RE JUST TAKING OFF?

‫- THE TOUR IS OVER. ‫- MAN, I DON'T GET YOU.

‫I MEAN, YOU SEEM LIKE ‫YOU GOT IT ALL TOGETHER

‫AND THEN YOU GO ‫AND SELF-DESTRUCT LIKE THAT.

‫I JUST SAID ‫WHAT WAS ON MY MIND.

‫SO JUST BECAUSE ‫YOU'RE PISSED AT SIMONE, ‫YOU TORPEDO THE WHOLE SCHOOL?

‫IT'S NOT BECAUSE OF SIMONE! ‫I COULDN'T CARE LESS ‫ABOUT SIMONE!

‫THEN WHAT?

‫WILKE, YOU'RE REALLY FUN, ‫BUT YOU DON'T GET IT.

‫YOU GUYS HAVE SO MUCH.

‫THIS WASN'T REALLY ‫THE TIME TO OCCUPY BUCKNER.

‫I'M SORRY. ‫I DIDN'T REALIZE ‫YOU'D BE SO MAD.

‫I'M NOT. IT'S JUST--

‫LOOK, MY DAD IS ‫ON THE BOARD FOR THIS THING

‫AND I REALLY NEEDED IT ‫TO GO WELL.

‫YOU SHOULD'VE TOLD ME.

‫I KINDA DID.

‫MAYBE I'M NOT ‫THE ONLY ONE WHO DOESN'T ‫KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON.

‫OH, HEY HEY.

‫( people chatting )

‫( sniffs )

‫WHAT'S HAPPENING?

‫AND THE MATCH HITS ‫DRY GRASS.

‫DIANE AND DICK HARA, ‫HUGE COLLECTORS. ‫LET ME INTRODUCE--

‫- WHAT IS THIS? ‫- WHAT'S THE MATTER?

‫YOU USED MY PERSONAL LIFE ‫WITHOUT TELLING ME?

‫TURNED IT INTO ‫SOME CHEESY HEADLINE ‫TO MOVE YOUR MERCHANDISE?

‫- I WOULDN'T SAY CHEESY. ‫- I AM NOT A COMMODITY.

‫- MY STORY IS ‫ NOT A COMMODITY. ‫- HEY!

‫I AM SO SORRY ‫TO INTERRUPT, BUT WE'VE GOT ‫A PROBLEM BACK THERE.

‫- WHO INVITED CAMERON? ‫- DON'T LOOK AT ME.

‫- CAN I HELP? ‫- WE GOT IT.

‫OH, SO HAPPY WE'RE ‫HANDLING THIS DELICATELY.

‫WHAT IS SHE...?

‫WHA--

‫WHAT? IS THAT THE SIGN ‫FOR "DROP O--"

‫( inhales sharply )

‫OKAY OKAY.

‫WHAT JUST HAPP-- ‫NO WAIT. EMMETT.

‫JUST DON'T.

‫( sighs )

‫( knocks )

‫SORRY, I'M OUT ‫OF COFFEE. CAN I?

‫UH, YEAH, OF COURSE.

‫HAVE YOU HEARD ‫ANYTHING FROM MELODY?

‫NOT SINCE ‫I DROPPED HER OFF.

‫I'M GUESSING EMMETT SPENT ‫THE NIGHT AT HIS DAD'S.

‫I'M GUESSING.

‫- HE'S NOT ANSWERING. ‫- YOU DID THE RIGHT THING.

‫HE'LL FIGURE THAT OUT.

‫I MUST HAVE "NARC" ‫WRITTEN ON MY FOREHEAD.

‫MELODY TOLD ME ‫YOU CAME TO HER.

‫THAT TOOK SOME COURAGE.

‫YEAH.

‫SHE'S ACTUALLY ‫PRETTY COOL

‫WHEN SHE'S NOT ‫TURNING YOUR ART SHOW

‫INTO A TELENOVELA ‫FOR THE HARD-OF-HEARING.

‫I'M SO SORRY ‫ABOUT THAT.

‫( sighs )

‫LET'S JUST SAY IT WAS FINE ‫THAT IT ENDED EARLY.

‫I WOULD RATHER MAKE ART ‫THAN SELL IT, YOU KNOW?

‫THAT PIECE ‫THAT WASN'T FOR SALE?

‫YEAH?

‫I REALLY LIKED ‫THE WINGS.

‫DID YOU MAKE THEM ‫OUT OF LEAVES?

‫- I DID. ‫- THEY WERE BAY LEAVES.

‫I KNOW.

‫I MADE THAT

‫WHEN I FIRST FOUND OUT ‫WHERE YOU WERE AND...

‫WHAT YOUR NAME WAS.

‫IT WAS REALLY BEAUTIFUL.

‫THANK YOU.

‫WELL, THEN TAKE ‫ALL THE BAKING SODA ‫AWAY FROM HIM.

‫I DON'T KNOW. HIDE IT. ‫I HAVE TO GO, BABY.

‫- ( beeps ) ‫- HI. THERE WEREN'T ANY TABLES,

‫- BUT THERE'S THIS ‫ OTHER PLACE RIGHT DOWN HERE. ‫- I'M SO SORRY I'M LATE.

‫- I HAD TO LEAVE ‫ THE KIDS AT HOME. ‫- OH, YOU SHOULD'VE TOLD ME.

‫NO NO, IT'S OKAY. ‫MY OLDEST IS 15. ‫SHE CAN MANAGE.

‫- ( cellphone rings ) ‫- I'M SORRY. I'M SORRY.

‫WHAT IS IT? ‫NO, HE CAN'T GO NEXT DOOR.

‫BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW ‫WHAT THOSE KIDS ARE UP TO.

‫KEEP HIM INSIDE. ‫COME--

‫BECAUSE YOU'RE THE OLDEST. ‫I WILL BE HOME SOON.

‫- ( beeps ) ‫- I'M REALLY SORRY.

‫USUALLY MY MOM HELPS OUT, ‫BUT SHE FELL LAST WEEK.

‫- OH NO. ‫- NO NO, IT'S FINE.

‫I PROBABLY DON'T ‫HAVE TIME FOR COFFEE.

‫OH, WELL, I JUST WANTED ‫TO SEE HOW YOU'RE DOING

‫- AND IF YOU HEARD ‫ ABOUT THAT JOB. ‫- NOT YET.

‫OH. WELL, WE SPOKE ‫TO OUR LAWYER

‫AND HE SEEMS TO THINK ‫YOU MIGHT HAVE A CASE ‫FOR WRONGFUL TERMINATION.

‫OKAY. IS THAT WHY ‫YOU WANTED TO MEET ME?

‫WELL, THAT AND I WANTED ‫TO GIVE YOU THIS.

‫IT'S JUST SOMETHING ‫TO HELP YOU OUT UNTIL ‫THINGS TURN AROUND.

‫I CAN'T TAKE THAT.

‫YOU'VE DONE SO MUCH ‫TO HELP OUR FAMILY AND LOOK ‫WHAT IT'S DONE TO YOURS.

‫- NO, I DON'T NEED IT. REALLY. ‫- WOULD IT HELP IF I TOLD YOU

‫I SOLD SOMETHING I DIDN'T NEED ‫AND IF I BRING IT HOME

‫MY HUSBAND'LL JUST USE IT ‫TO PUT A TV IN OUR BATHROOM?

‫THAT'S YOUR ARGUMENT?

‫THAT HOSPITAL TOOK ‫SO MUCH FROM US.

‫I DON'T WANT IT ‫TO RUIN YOUR LIFE.

‫PLEASE, FROM ONE MOTHER ‫TO ANOTHER.

‫I WILL PAY YOU BACK.

‫- ( rings ) ‫- ( both laugh )

‫YES. YEAH, I'M COMING HOME. ‫YEAH, RIGHT NOW.

‫( mouths )

‫YEAH.

‫YOU HAD NO RIGHT.

‫I UNDERSTAND IF YOU FEEL ‫LIKE I TOOK ADVANTAGE.

‫I DON'T FEEL LIKE ‫YOU TOOK ADVANTAGE.

‫YOU TOOK ADVANTAGE. ‫LET'S START THERE.

‫IF I HAD ANY IDEA HOW UPSET ‫YOU'D BE, I'D HAVE RUN ‫THE CATALOGUE BY YOU.

‫HOW COULD YOU NOT THINK ‫I WOULD BE UPSET?

‫WOULD YOU WANT ‫THE MOST PERSONAL ‫THING ABOUT YOUR LIFE

‫TO BE THE ONLY THING ‫PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT YOU?

‫I DIDN'T THINK ‫IT WAS A SECRET. ‫IT WAS IN THE NEWSPAPER.

‫EXACTLY, AND I HAD ‫NO CONTROL OVER WHAT ‫THAT REPORTER SAID.

‫BUT I DID NOT EXPECT YOU ‫TO PULL THIS CRAP.

‫I DON'T THINK OF IT ‫AS CRAP, ACTUALLY.

‫I MEAN GOD KNOWS THERE'S ‫PLENTY OF HOT AIR ‫IN SELLING ART,

‫BUT TELLING PEOPLE STORIES-- ‫THAT'S WHAT MAKES

‫A BUNCH OF PAINT AND CARDBOARD ‫INTO A LIVING THING.

‫THAT'S WHERE ‫IT GETS ITS POWER.

‫- WHAT IS THIS? ‫- I SOLD THE RED ‫ AND THE BLUE AFTER YOU LEFT.

‫THAT'S A LOT OF HAIRCUTS.

‫I WAS HOPING ‫TO USE MY COMMISSION

‫TO TAKE YOU OUT ‫TO THIS NEW INDIAN PLACE.

‫- WHAT'S YOUR COMMISSION? ‫- 50%, STANDARD FOR A GALLERY.

‫FIRST THING--

‫WE TELL MY STORY ‫HOWWANNA TELL IT.

‫- OKAY. ‫- SECOND, ‫ I HATE INDIAN FOOD.

‫WELL, WHAT ABOUT BARBEQUE? ‫WE AGREED ON THAT, RIGHT?

‫ARE YOUR ARTERIES ‫UP FOR IT?

‫AS LONG AS WE BRANCH OUT ‫AFTER THAT.

‫DO NOT GET AHEAD ‫OF YOURSELF.

‫- ( taps ) ‫- ( window whirrs )

‫HEY, WHAT'S WITH THE CAR?

‫- OH, DID YOU GET ‫ IN AN ACCIDENT? ‫- OH NO, EVERYTHING'S FINE.

‫I BOUGHT IT. ‫ISN'T IT PRETTY?

‫YEAH, IT'S PRETTY. WHAT?

‫IT GETS 43 MILES ‫TO THE GALLON.

‫- OUR OLD CAR GOT 24. ‫- YEAH, BABY, WHERE IS ‫ OUR OLD CAR?

‫IT'S GOT THIS AMAZING ‫ENTUNE SYSTEM.

‫YOU CAN LISTEN ‫TO MUSIC ON PANDORA.

‫- YOU CAN BUY TICKETS ‫ TO THE MOVIE THEATERS. ‫- KATHRYN?

‫- YEAH, KATHRYN, WHERE IS-- ‫- AND YOU LIKE ITALIAN, RIGHT?

‫- YEAH. ‫- WELL, ALL YOU HAVE ‫ TO DO IS DO THIS

‫AND IT FINDS ALL ‫THE LOCAL ITALIAN RESTAURANTS

‫- AND MAKES RESERVATIONS. ‫- KATHRYN.

‫( sighs ) ‫I TRADED IN OUR S.U.V. ‫AND I BOUGHT THIS.

‫YOU BOUGHT A NEW CAR ‫WITHOUT TALKING TO ME?

‫I SOLD OUR CAR, ‫I BOUGHT THIS

‫AND GAVE THE DIFFERENCE ‫TO BRIZIA IN CASH.

‫IT'S NOT TRACEABLE, ‫SO WE'RE HELPING HER ‫SO SHE CAN STILL HELP US.

‫HONEY, IF YOU HAD ‫SEEN HER FACE--

‫I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD BE ‫TALKING ABOUT THIS RIGHT NOW.

‫- OKAY. ‫- I MEAN SERIOUSLY, KATHRYN?

‫REALLY? YOU'RE WILLING ‫TO PUT THE TRIAL,

‫OUR FAMILY, ON THE LINE ‫TO HELP THIS WOMAN

‫WHO, BY THE WAY, ‫MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE WOMAN ‫WHO SWITCHED OUR DAUGHTERS?

‫SHE'S A VICTIM ‫OF THE HOSPITAL TOO.

‫- COME ON. ‫- THEY OVERWORKED HER

‫AND THEN THEY FIRED HER ‫'CAUSE SHE WAS GONNA HELP US.

‫I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU DID THIS ‫WITHOUT TALKING TO ME.

‫'CAUSE I KNEW ‫WHAT YOU'D SAY.

‫BUT IT'S ‫THE RIGHT THING TO DO.

‫REALLY? GREAT. ‫SO I'M JUST SUPPOSED ‫TO ACCEPT THAT?

‫WELL, IT'S DONE.

‫( pop music playing )

‫* I WOKE UP AND WISHED ‫ THAT I WAS DEAD *

‫* WITH AN ACHING ‫ IN MY HEAD... *

‫VASQUEZ, I NEED A WORD.

‫* I THOUGHT OF YOU ‫ AND WHERE YOU'D GONE... *

‫YOU WANNA TELL ME ‫WHAT HAPPENED THIS WEEKEND?

‫WERE THE TALKING POINTS ‫NOT CLEAR ENOUGH?

‫NO, THEY-- ‫THEY WERE CLEAR ENOUGH.

‫WHEN I PUT YOU ‫UP FOR SOMETHING,

‫I DON'T WANT ‫BOOSTERS CALLING ‫AND TELLING ME THAT

‫THE KID I RECOMMENDED ‫IS OUT THERE PROMOTING ‫ANOTHER SCHOOL.

‫I KNOW. I'M SORRY. ‫I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.

‫LOOK, I UNDERSTAND ‫YOU'RE IN A WEIRD POSITION,

‫BUT THIS IS YOUR TEAM.

‫ACT LIKE IT.

‫- ( school bell rings ) ‫- LACY IS OUR BEST SHOOTER.

‫OKAY, SO WHY ARE ‫ WE PASSING THE BALL TO MIA,

‫WHO'S NO GOOD. ‫WE BOTH KNOW THIS. ‫WE HAVE TO BE HONEST.

‫ONE-- ONE, TWO...?

‫LACY. YES, LACY. ‫RIGHT, THAT'S--

‫OH, HEATHER! ‫THAT'S GOOD.

‫HEY, SWEETIE, ‫WHAT'S UP?

‫DO YOU GUYS WANNA SEE ‫IF WE CAN SAVE THIS TEAM?

‫- John: WHAT? ‫ YOU'RE COMING BACK? ‫- ( laughs )

‫- COME ON. ‫- LET'S DO THIS.

‫GET OVER HERE. MMM.

‫* I LAY ‫ MOTIONLESS IN BED... *

‫HEY.

‫FANCY FINDING YOU HERE.

‫I MEAN ‫ACTUALLY IN SCHOOL.

‫COME ON, OKAY? ‫I WAS WORRIED ABOUT YOU.

‫WHAT WAS ‫I SUPPOSED TO DO?

‫JUST WATCH YOU DROP ‫OUT OF SCHOOL?

‫I TRIED.

‫YOU SAID THAT ‫I SOUNDED LIKE YOUR MOM.

‫COME ON. OKAY, WHAT--

‫DO YOU THINK ‫THAT I'M TRYING ‫TO RUIN YOUR PARTY?

‫WHY WOULD I TELL YOUR MOM, ‫OF ALL PEOPLE,

‫UNLESS I THOUGHT ‫THAT YOU WERE IN TROUBLE?

‫YOU KEEP SAYING ‫THAT YOU'RE HAPPY,

‫BUT TO ME ‫YOU JUST LOOK MISERABLE.

‫* I WATCH THE STARS ‫ FROM MY WINDOWSILL *

‫* THE WHOLE WORLD IS MOVING

‫* AND I'M STANDING STILL.
