I'ma need you to come in
to New Amsterdam tomorrow
so we can come up
with a plan for treatment.
I don't wanna do any of that.
I got a condition.
I gotta make some calls!
Three years sober.
Wow, that's impressive.
And the real villain
of your life is Mom.
It's not me.
Where are you going?
To get high.
[SIGHS] - Well,
if that's really true, then
what are we doing?
I don't know.
I can't be who I want to be
with you.
[CLASSICAL MUSIC]
The key to our appreciation
is looking deeply
and asking yourself
How does it make you feel?
Hmm?
[WHISPERING] Uh, yeah
No, nothing.
Tell me about it.
I've been on three of these,
and I haven't hooked up anyone.
No, I'm not here looking for a date.
I'm no, I'm here I wanna
broaden my horizons, you know?
Find out what I like, what I don't like,
what I connect with, where I belong.
- Shh!
- I
Or I blew up
my entire life for no reason.

No bleeding,

We'll X-ray to confirm.

We know baby, shh. Hey, it's okay.
Ever since starting school,

We don't usually mention it
so he's not treated any differently.
I see, okay.
But wouldn't you like

comfortable communicating with me?
No, it won't be necessary.
Jael doesn't know ASL.

Hey, Doc!
Doc!
Come here!
Step into my office.
Hey. I would tell you to sit,
but I've only got this one chair,
and I've got this whole
lumbar situation, and
anyway, what can I do for you?
Well, uh, this is a very nice office.
You don't need walls
or electricity or law stuff.
So you're here to bring justice
to the kid and the old broad
who got mushed this morning?
Yeah, I wouldn't call her that.
But, um, yeah.
And more people are going to
get hurt unless we fix it.
Put your mind at ease.
Be calm.
Come with me.
Now, you see that crosswalk over there?
- No.
- Because there isn't one.
My point is that intersection
is not up to code,
and the city has never
done squat to fix it.
But at the end of the day,
that is not an intersection.
That is a slot machine.
And if your old broad
needs surgery, well then,
that slot machine is set at all sevens.
I'm talking big payouts! A lot of cash!
Get your crash cash, baby!
Get your crash cash!
I-I'm actually not looking for money.
An obvious lie, but okay.
No, no, no. All I am here for
- Mm-hmm.
- Is to get this intersection
fixed, all right? That's it.
Well, you cannot
sue a driver to get that.
Well, we're not gonna sue a driver.
We're gonna sue the city of New York.

10 grand up front,
and that's a discount.
5, and only if we win.
Let's go crush these bastards.
Obviously, the city
of New York takes no joy
in what happened
to Ana and Rafael Linares.
But I must point out
that in this courtroom,
we have neither the perpetrator
of a crime nor a victim.
Where is the driver of this car?
Where are the people who were struck?
This is an irrelevant bystander
smelling deep pockets,
and the City moves for this
complaint to be dismissed.
Response, Counselor?
Time to make 'em hurt
where the sun don't shine.
Yeah, um, Your Honor,
this crosswalk is in a very
busy residential neighborhood.
Kids play there. Families work there.
In fact, their hopes and dreams
are played out on this
neglected patch of asphalt.
And I'm not asking for money, okay?
All I'm asking is
for the city of New York
to protect the lives of its citizens
which I believe
they are obligated to do
and offer the cost
of a new coat of paint.
Now, I believe
that is a small price to pay
to protect the lives of
the citizens of this shining
Citation?
Objection.
Sorry. Uh, what?
What city charter regulation
are you citing for your complaint?
Well
Yarborough v. City of New York.
That's the one.
With exception

the City is required
to paint the intersection.
So ordered. Department of Transportation

- We won.
And that, my friend,
is how you Cruz for justice!
God, I'm good.
Wow, I can't believe we won.
I mean, I can't believe that
you actually, you know, did it.
I had some doubts about you
maybe you noticed.
But that was incredible.
I mean, you knew exactly
what to say, and this feels so good!
I think I should've been a lawyer.
Yeah, I know, right?
Now imagine how even better you'd feel
if they were actually
gonna paint that thing.
Yeah, but the judge
just said they have to.
So they're going to

[MUFFLED VOICES]
At 12 months,
Jael was just starting to talk
when he got sick,
and then he lost his hearing.
And
we assumed that he needed
to learn ASL, but
His pediatrician told us
it wasn't necessary
that if we taught him to sign,
he would never learn to speak.
He would rely on sign language
instead of reading lips.
[TOYS CLATTER]
The audiologist
and the speech therapist,
they told us the same thing.
If we wanted to give him his best shot
at navigating the world,
we had to motivate him.
His doctors said
that sign language would limit him.
It would shrink his world
to a small bubble of peers
who could sign.
It would isolate him.
We didn't wanna relegate
our son to some dark corner
to be treated
like a second class citizen.
Well, is it working?
The therapy, the exercises,
are they working?
Can you hold a conversation with him?
How many words is he able to speak?
[SOFTLY] 78.
Okay. That's, um
The average that a two-year-old knows
is around 150,
just to put it in perspective.
The behavior that Jael
is showing is consistent
with language deprivation syndrome.
The brain has a critical window
in which it forms language,
and if that window is missed,
it can cause a whole range
of issues. Some are behavioral,
some mental. If that window is closed,
it makes acquiring language
much more difficult.
If this is true, how come no
one's ever told us this before?
Because unfortunately,
medicine our world
is still very much filtered
through an able-bodied perspective.
That's why.
You two need to make a decision now.
To give Jael a language of his own,
even if it's one
that you don't understand,
because his window is closing.

So guys, there is some good news.
There is an emerging program
that will help make up
for all the lost time.
Jael will learn ASL much quicker
in an environment like this
as opposed to a mainstream school.
Yeah, check it out.
It's a high-quality deaf education.
They use a bilingual approach,
which means that Jael
will continue to receive speech therapy
as well lip-reading instruction
and all the while,
he'll be learning to sign
while building up a very strong
foundation of language.
This is amazing. Where is it?
The school itself is
in Framingham, Massachusetts.
That's a four-hour drive.
How many times a week
do we have to sign him up for?
Because of how late it is
in his development,
they recommend that we enroll
Jael in their residential program,
which means
that he will be living there,
fully immersed in the language.
Oh, you just said that he is acting out
because he can't communicate his needs,
and now you want us
to send our five-year-old

How you doin'?
Don't beat yourself up.
There's no way you could've

She took care of me
when no one else did.
And now
I don't know how to take care of her.
And it's all because
of that stupid decision.
How did you come to that decision?
I didn't. You forced me.
Look, I forced you to say something.
But you could've chosen
the less risky procedure.
My grandma goes for it.
I mean,
that's just who she is.
So I chose what I thought
she would want me to do.
There you go.
Then you made the right decision.
What if she doesn't see it that way?
Well, you go in there,
and if she needs to be mad at you,
let her be mad.
You're not just in charge
of her medical decisions,
'cause accepting the consequences
that's a decision too.
