Switched at Birth s02e18 Episode Script

As the Shadows Deepen

Previously on Switched At Birth "Dawn Of The Deaf," scene 1, take 1.
- Action! - I actually was accepted to Wash U a couple months ago.
I was actually wondering if, um I could still get my spot.
The Bill Kennish no-bull straight talk.
Well, thank you.
- You turned out all right.
- What I've done, I've done in spite of you.
My dad parked at the mall and some guy walked up to him and shot him.
- I'm in love with you.
- You're gonna find someone so much better for you than me.
Coto needs to be taught a lesson.
What if we send him an anonymous message - telling him that we know what he did? - Do it.
_ You wanna go back to your barracks? Right now, it's kinda nice just hanging out like this.
All right, give it a shot.
- Oh, hey guys.
- MB! What's up? Just putting the sharks to bed.
Actually, the sharks might be put down permanently.
Mac told me we're closing the parks on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
- Really? Why? - Not enough business.
I guess that new water park's killing us.
- That sucks.
- Oh man, I love this job.
- I know, me too.
- Well, isn't there something we can do? Like two-for-one coupons or singles day? Do you guys need a ride or something? No.
Nah, I think I got it.
Here, try again.
Oh! Well, now that's up and running.
Maybe you can use that magic toolbox on Maui.
They can't close Maui.
Some things are just permanent.
Oh, I I dream of you every single night How could I have not realized tell you what I'm on baby, I'm I can't think of a better way to celebrate the death of abstinence-only education.
Well, your shirt seems to be very much pro-abstinence.
That works, too.
My heart's in overload because of you My heart's in overload because of you Oh.
License and registration.
I wasn't aware we were speeding, Officer.
Ha.
Very funny.
You're not allowed to be parked here.
License and registration.
You're familiar with diplomatic immunity? I'm with the British consulate and while in this country, as I'm sure you know, I'm immune from prosecution.
You gotta be kidding me.
I assure you I'm not.
Call the consulate if you like.
Is this car yours or hers? Hers, but as long as I'm in it, the car is considered sovereign British soil.
Therefore, my deaf cousin here enjoys the same immunities from prosecution.
Look, get outta here and don't come back.
Diplomatic immunity? Are you insane? It's the accent.
It freaks you people out.
Did you tell him I was your cousin? That's gross! - Well, we are in the south.
- Midwest.
- Whatever.
- You're dangerous.
You have no idea.
My heart's in overload because of you.
I bet you did not know that our treadmill can go one mile an hour.
Oh yes, it can.
Toby's wait-listed at Wash U.
You're reading our kids' mail now? I was cleaning his studio.
Isn't it great news? "Regarding your recent inquiry.
We are happy to inform you"-- Wow.
He must've called 'em.
Does this mean he's getting second thoughts about the wedding or does he wanna do college too? - We could ask him.
- Absolutely not.
This is delicate territory.
- If we press him-- - "If you would like to include any additional materials to your application, we would" bup bup bup.
Oh.
Waiting list is packed.
Well, he already got in once and Maybe we could ask your dad to make a call.
- No.
- John, this is for Toby.
Why would we do that? When we know exactly how that would turn out-- with one of us getting insulted.
So what? It's worth a shot.
Forget it, Kathryn.
I am not asking my father for a favor.
Well, then I'll ask him.
It won't be a favor for you.
It'll be a favor for me.
Fine, you ask.
It's like my dad got killed all over again.
My wedding day is supposed to be the happiest day of my life.
And instead I'm just going to be full of hate.
Maybe you don't have to be.
What if we talked to the guy? You mean see him in prison? Look him in the eye and show him what he has taken from you.
I don't know if I can do that.
I want you to be happy at our wedding.
If you think facing him will help at all, then I think we should.
"Motto"? I thought you said it begins with "C.
" Hey! How goes the business of the state? What's a five-letter word for "statement of beliefs"? I can see I'm not interrupting anything.
Can I get your opinion on something? Sure, what's up? Okay, well, you know that new water park, Poseidon's Cove.
Oh, right.
That place looks incredible.
Yeah, well, it's kind of drowning Maui, Kansas.
We're going dark two days a week now.
Another death at the hands of a corporate conglomerate.
You just said it looked amazing.
Political context.
Go on.
Okay, well, I've been trying to think of different theme days to bring in more business.
And I was thinking what about "Deaf Day"? Is that offensive or awesome? - Definitely awesome! - That's what I was hoping you'd say.
So can you help me think of different places that I could reach out to? I mean Carlton obviously, but where else? Well, there's a bunch of message boards.
- I can do that.
- Oh great.
So what should we do? Oh! You should show "Deafenstein"! We did it once for a fundraiser for Carlton.
I swear every deaf person in KC came.
I knew you were the person to ask.
We can ask Emmett.
He set it up.
By the way, credo, "statement of belief.
" As in "by any means necessary.
" Ta.
That guy's like a one-man revolution.
Okay, so I can get everything going with Emmett, but I just need to know what day you were thinking of.
That's okay.
I can ask him.
Oh.
You two are Please, that's ancient history.
So he's okay with you and Ty? I actually haven't mentioned that.
Okay, it's not like we report to each other on who we're dating.
Yeah, okay.
- Hey.
- Hi.
I am actually here on official business.
I've been thinking about redoing the carwash.
Maybe some paisley sponges or some mid-century modern towels? Ha ha, very funny.
You think I'm kidding, but I'm talking about my office and the customer waiting area.
I think you would be perfect.
I'd love to.
But full disclosure-- my experience is still kinda limited.
Regina, I saw what you did with the guesthouse.
I know I'm in good hands.
John, you don't have to do this.
I want to.
So I'll let Toby know that you'll be in touch, and you guys can get to work.
Sure.
Thank you.
- I appreciate it.
- Please.
Why can't we just project your DVD copy? Is it illegal or something? _ _ Oh, okay.
There's only a minute left.
Shouldn't we bid? Fine, but when you and I have to re-enact "Deafenstein" onstage "Rocky Horror" style, I'm blaming you.
laptop, I'm pulling rank.
Come on! _ Oh! We won! We won! Oh, eat it, deafensteinlives83! _ Yeah, it sure is.
I'm gonna enter in my payment info.
I never knew dad actually cared about the way the office looked.
Well, it's good for the customers to see that the business is growing.
Plus it's nicer for you.
Well, I don't really plan on being here forever.
Well, you can enjoy it for as long as you're here, right? Hey, Simone came through the other day.
I think it's really cool the way you helped her out.
It's nice that you two are friendly.
I hope that Nikki's okay with that.
Nikki's got a lot more to worry about right now than me talking to my ex-girlfriend.
They found the guy that killed her father.
- Really? - He's already in prison.
I guess he wants to clear his conscience of all the other things he's done.
We're actually going to go see him.
Is that a good idea? She's so angry.
We gotta try something.
We just need someone who's over 21 to take us.
- Prison rules.
- Nikki's mom? Well, she doesn't want anything to do with the guy.
And can you imagine me asking my parents? We need someone else.
So you thought you'd ask the recovering alcoholic with the criminal record and the sham marriage? Will you at least think about it? I will think about it.
Thanks.
I don't care what you might say I'm gonna become the way I was meant to feel the world Hi! _ Well, welcome to Maui.
_ What have you been doing? Bay, can we let the customers buy some food and play some games, please? Welcome to Maui! My boss.
_ Aww.
The ASL Snark.
I've missed you.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Oh, thank God.
Mac was threatening to show some vampire thing if you didn't make it.
"Taste The Blood Of Dracula" has universal appeal.
Trust me, you're not getting between deaf people and their schlocky horror.
_ Uh, can I see that? Uh, here.
I've never seen "Deafenstein," but I'm pretty sure it doesn't have a girl-on-girl scene.
Whoa.
Seriously, guys? This is a family park.
How do they do that in costumes? _ _ A lot of people are coming.
Then we have to show 'em something.
Okay, what about the DVD? We could just project that.
_ Could do a midnight showing.
What? Two things your government gets right-- national parks and historic landmarks, which is an excellent idea.
Another project? Visit all the national parks.
- You interested? - Sure.
- Jace.
Hi! - Hey.
Daphne, this is Carrie Breisler, my scone dealer and maker of this most excellent eclair.
The pastry cream is amazing.
Thank you.
You know what? It was so much better when I was in Paris, but that's probably just because I was in Paris.
- You baked in France? - Yeah yeah, just for a year.
I would've loved to have stayed longer, but I had to get back and see my fiancee.
- You're engaged? - Yeah, new development.
We're about to go ring shopping.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Oh, speak of the devil.
- Hi.
- Hi.
_ Jeff, this is Jace, the englishman who doesn't like tea.
And this is Daphne.
- Hello.
- We know each other.
Yeah, Daphne worked in my kitchen.
Oh really? Wow, that's crazy.
What a small world.
_ Oh, uh, it's nice to - meet you.
- You too.
I'm sorry, I just thought you were-- No, not deaf.
Just working with a deaf person, learned to sign.
So when did you work with Jeff? Last year, but it was only for a little bit.
- Oh.
- Not long enough for me to remember any signing, apparently.
You know what? You guys should come by Maize tonight, have a meal.
Maybe, but we have to go, so Congratulations again.
Oh.
I went public.
I know we don't have the rings or anything yet, but come on, you made me wait four years.
Wait, you've been together for four years? Well, part of the time you were in France.
It wasn't exactly four.
Where are you working now? At the State Senate, interning for my dad.
Anyway, we should be off.
We're headed to Maui, Kansas.
Oh cool! I love that place.
Are they still doing those pineapple skewers? Why don't you come by? Maybe.
Maybe we will.
- Yeah.
- Well, anyway, you guys have fun.
You too.
- So nice to meet you.
- You too.
Uh, take care.
Oh, you got it.
Okay, so Mac has this projector that I can run with my laptop, so all is well.
_ Oh! _ You know, I've never seen it all the way through.
It'll be fun.
Oh, look at me and Wilke! I've never seen that before.
Forgot all about this.
Look at my makeup.
No no no.
Let it play.
Hey.
Uh We were just watching this movie that we made last year.
Yeah, I see.
Ty, you remember Emmett.
How's it going? - Is it not weird for you? - No.
I mean, a little, yeah, but it's fine.
You didn't know that Carrie was engaged to Jeff, right? That's not why you brought me there? Of course not.
No, I'm not sadistic.
You said you wanted dessert.
Right.
Come on.
Let's go play some tiki-tac-toe.
I think I need to show you the bamboo grove.
It's very private.
Well, I like private.
Ty.
Wait.
Okay, so you're just gonna walk away? - You're not even gonna say anything? - What do you want me to say? It is just a movie.
Look, are you playing me to make him jealous or him to make me jealous? - Just so I'm clear.
- There is nothing going on with me and Emmett.
- I swear.
- I'll see you around.
Ty! Do you want coverage or do you want cheap? You cannot have both, okay? I-- I'm gonna have to call you back.
Well, go on.
Tell me.
Is he dead? Oh God, no.
Oh.
No, John's fine.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't mean to scare you.
Well, you know, I-- I read about the heart attack and I-- Oh, he's okay.
He's-- he's been resting.
Yeah, sure.
Like hell he is.
Well, we're doing our best to make sure - he doesn't overdo it.
- Ah.
Actually, I'm here to talk to you about Toby.
Thank you.
He got into Wash U.
- Did he? - Mm-hmm.
- Well, good for him.
- And he decided he didn't want to go, then he changed his mind, so he's on the wait list.
And umm I was wondering if you could do me a favor and make a call.
It sounds like he doesn't know what he wants.
Then it's our job to help him figure it out, right? Well, I-- I'll see what I can do.
Thank you, Bill.
I appreciate it.
I hope you're doing well.
Yeah.
Well, I assume that I'm gonna get a thank you or something from John.
I suppose not.
Do you know he never even picked up the phone when Loretta passed? Not a note.
Nothing.
And you invited her to our wedding when he specifically asked you not to.
And he was in the majors for three years before you even congratulated him.
And on and on and on.
You both hold so tightly to your anger.
I wish you would just let it go-- both of you-- before it's too late.
Where are you taking me? Just go with it.
Oh.
_ Wow.
Really wish I knew it was Helen Keller Day.
Oh, you're in luck.
Next Wednesday is Ignorant Bigot Day.
Sorry, I-- I thought you were deaf.
Oh, and that would've made it okay? Dude.
Hello.
Game over.
It's not broken.
You just didn't hit anything, which is probably because you're wasted.
Which, by the way, is not a turn-on, in case you were wondering.
_ I'm sorry, I didn't totally get that, but seriously, it's time to go.
Oh.
No, I-- I can't take cash.
You have to go buy tickets.
_ I'm sorry, I don't _ _ One win.
Yeah.
Okay.
That's great.
Okay, one more.
One more to win.
I'm sorry about that.
You can take your cash.
Oh, wait, your-- your jacket.
This is exactly what I needed.
I love the bamboo grove, even if there isn't any bamboo.
Should we get back? Reluctantly.
Is that yours? No, I think it was here when we got here.
Oh.
We'll take it to Lost and Found.
- Yeah.
- Oh.
Oh my God, look.
It's that Twit.
I think he feels really bad about what he said about deaf people.
Oh yeah yeah, he is wracked with guilt.
And the only way to make it better is with a $47 donation to Carlton School for the deaf.
He is far more remorseful than that.
He's feeling the need to donate to a few more worthy causes.
Pfft! We can't do that.
Why not? - Jace.
- Insurance will reimburse him.
It's a victimless crime.
A few more trees get planted in the world.
Everyone wins.
Jace, we're not doing that.
All right.
All right.
Oh my God.
You don't have to do anything you don't want to.
No, you don't.
But you face this guy, just once, you never have to think about him again.
- This was a mistake.
- Nikki.
That girl? That girl is the daughter of the man that you killed.
She can't even look at you.
I cast my burdens on the Lord.
I pray that he can comfort her.
Right, you found God, so then that gives you the excuse to kill an innocent man who just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time? I wish he had just given me the stuff.
- What stuff? - I didn't have any cash.
I thought if I took a gun, maybe I could scare some hits out of him.
And why would he have drugs on him? He's the guy I bought 'em off of.
- George Papagus? - Yeah.
- Was your drug dealer? - Yeah.
But he didn't scare when I showed him the gun so I shot him.
Then I took the drugs and I ran.
I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry.
- No.
I'm sorry.
This was a bad idea.
What were you doing in there? Talking to him.
What did you say? Just what she would've said, that he's where he should be.
And what did he say? He said he was sorry.
I don't wanna think about this anymore.
Let's-- let's go home.
Well, I don't know where else he would be.
Hey.
It's Bay, right? It's all right.
She's with me.
I haven't been able to reach Ty.
He's not answering his phone and he's not at the barracks.
He's probably at the motor pool.
That's usually where he hides out.
So he told you.
We all heard.
It's the whole unit.
- What's the whole unit? - The redeployment.
That's what you meant, isn't it? Oh man.
I'm always running my mouth.
What redeployment? Back to Afghanistan, end of the month.
They're sending a few of us back to train the new police.
That's what sucks about dating one of us.
_ - Mind if I humiliate myself? - Be my guest.
I wish I could carry your smile in my heart for times when my life seems so low it would make me believe what tomorrow could bring when today doesn't really know doesn't really know I'm all out of love I'm so lost without you I know you were right believing for so long I'm all out of love Hi.
What are you doing here? What the hell did you say to Carrie? She's freaking out.
She's acting like I'm some kind of pedophile.
You think I talked to her? I get that you're pissed at me, but I didn't cheat on anyone.
When you and I met, Carrie was in Paris.
We were both seeing other people and now she's flipping out.
I didn't say anything.
I swear.
Yeah? Well then who did? What would you say if I called on you now saying that I can't hold on? There's no easy way - it gets harder each day - Really? Wow.
You-- you really picked a winner there.
I'll be gone I'm all out of love I'm so lost without you What happened between us was a mistake.
Believing for so long How long do I have to keep paying for it? What am I without you? I can't be too late to say that I was so wrong Hey! How'd you get on? Your CO, I guess.
He knows what I look like by now.
I tried calling.
Sorry, I just kinda went off the grid.
I'm sorry if you got the wrong idea.
Just don't.
I don't-- It was stupid.
Is everything okay? Yeah, you know, just a bad day.
So there isn't anything that you want to tell me? Like-- I don't know-- the fact that you're leaving for Afghanistan at the end of the month? - Who told you? - Does it matter? Somebody had to.
You weren't going to.
- I was getting to it.
- Ty, I-- I know, all right? I just-- What? Babe, that day that I saw you at Maui, I was in a bad place.
And I Being with you, it was like I crawled out of this hole.
I just thought that-- I don't know-- if I don't tell you, I can pretend I don't have to go back in that hole for a little longer.
That's great for you, but what about me? What? Were you-- were you just gonna spring this on me two days before you disappear like last time? No.
Do you have any idea how devastated I was? Not so devastated that you didn't go straight to Emmett.
- That is not fair.
- It's what happened.
I left and you dropped me as soon as you could.
And it's pretty clear that's how it's gonna go this time, too.
So why don't I just save you the trouble? Perfect.
Why don't you? Ahh.
- Oh my God.
- I know.
Well, are you gonna tell her? She worships her dad.
I mean, you should hear the way she talks about him.
I can't drop this on her, not right before the wedding.
Her mom either already knows or will find out soon enough.
In my experience, most secrets come out eventually.
And if she has to find out from someone wouldn't it be best coming from you? All I wanted was to make things better for her.
I was wondering where you disappeared to.
I signed us up for "Poker Face.
" So what did you do? Call Carrie and tell her that I dated Jeff? - Why did you do that? - I hate seeing people lie and get away with it.
You know that.
They're in a huge fight now.
It's not my fault.
What, so you're just okay with blowing up somebody's engagement, or stealing a credit card or blackmailing a senator? You took the money out of that wallet.
It was like 40 bucks! It's different! And we both decided to send that text to Coto.
The only difference between you and me is I don't lie to myself about who I am or what I'm willing to do to fight for what is right.
I'm gonna go.
You talk to him? Yes, I did.
He find a way to insult me? - Uh, John? - Yeah? How's the ticker? I think I'll go clean the kitchen.
The ticker is recuperating.
That's good.
Good.
What the hell are those things? Daphne makes me eat those.
What does she look like, anyway? Does she have any Kennish in her at all? Yeah.
Actually quite a bit.
Hmm.
You know, I wouldn't-- I wouldn't mind meeting her someday.
You feel like staying for dinner? Sure.
Why not? Peonies are pretty, right? Yeah, they look nice.
Sorry, I don't know how to talk about flowers.
You know, you've been weird ever since we got back.
What happened? Nothing.
Toby, what did that guy say to you? Whatever it is, I think I have the right to know.
He said that the reason he was there was because he was buying drugs from your dad.
What are you saying? He said that he had been buying stuff from him for quite some time.
Well, it's not true.
Okay.
Why would you say that to me? I don't know.
I'm sorry.
And you believed him? A murderer in prison? How could you believe anything he says for one minute? I'm-- I'm sorry.
I just I guess I'm wrong.
I-- I should've realized that-- No, Toby.
You didn't know my dad.
And that guy in there? He's insane! I don't know what's worse-- the lie or that you believed it! Hi.
Oh, your hoodie.
Yes.
Yeah, okay.
Got it right-- right here.
Yeah.
Uh, I'm sorry, I missed that.
_ Yeah, uh, sure.
Uh, yes.
I'm-- I'm, uh Ma-ry-- Mar-- Mary Beth.
You're T-- Tr-- Travi-- Travis.
Here, sorry.
You and I, riding high in a landfill building castles we get around while we're alive stuck in a web with the spiders and flies, singing Thank you all for coming! Don't be a stranger, stay out of danger and we'll see you soon, I hope.
Please come again.
Mahalo! Well, it's no "Captain Kronos, Vampire Hunter," but that really challenges the rules of the genre in an interesting way I thought.
What do people see in that dumb movie? What I see is a great turnout.
Bay.
I always come back.
What if you don't? I will.
You don't know that.
I should've told you.
I'm sorry.
I'm just I'm trying not to freak out here, okay? Why don't we just go back to the way things were? We'll hang out, have fun and we can pretend like nothing's changed.
I can't do that.
Why not? Because I love you.
- I wanna stay back in your eyes - What are we gonna do? Till the fire dies and all that's left is this _ _ _ _ _ _ You know we've got the best thing going - Bye.
You know we've got the best thing going You wake me up Did you have a good time? Yeah.
You can never see "Deafenstein" too many times.
Oh, I beg to differ.
When I was little, my mom used to make Ty bring me to the screenings at Carlton, because she was worried that I would be too scared.
I think it was more her way of trying to keep me out of trouble.
That too.
Thanks again for all of your help.
- See ya.
- Good night, guys.
And when the sun shines off your face at 6:00 AM I wanna start again You know we've got the best thing going You know we've got the best thing going You wake me up You wake me up You wake me up Next Monday, for everyone, there's no turning back.
A decision of a lifetime I don't want to wait anymore.
Are you sure? A relationship torn apart What happened? I'm sick of lying to everyone.
This is not who I am.
And love is put to the ultimate test.
You know it's gonna be really hard when I'm gone.
Do you think I'm gonna cheat on you? Don't talk to me! Leave me alone! An all-new Switched At Birth, next Monday at 8/7 Central, only on ABC Family.
