Switched at Birth (2011–2017): Season 1, Episode 27 - The Declaration of Independence - full transcript

PREVIOUSLY ON
"SWITCHED AT BIRTH."

YOU'RE GONNA WEAR
A SWEATER WITH THAT, RIGHT?

NO, I'M GOOD.

IF YOU'RE TRYING
TO CATCH SOMEONE'S EYE--

OH MY GOD, MOM.

THIS IS NOT
ABOUT SOME BOY.

OH, UH...

YEAH, I'M ACTUALLY
ALL GOOD WITH GLASSES.

- WOO!
- ( cheering )

- I'M NIKKI.
- TOBY.

WE'RE HAVING ANOTHER ONE
OF THESE NEXT WEEK



IF YOU WANT TO SWING BY.

I THOUGHT WE WERE
KIND OF THE SAME.

I JUST KNOW
THAT YOU GET THIS

HUGE PART OF MY LIFE

THAT NO ONE ELSE GETS.

I WILL PAINT OVER THIS

AGAIN AND AGAIN
DAY IN AND DAY OUT.

I WILL NOT
LET THEM WIN.

YOU KNOW THE GIRL
THAT WAS PAINTED HERE?

GRAFFITI ON THE WALL?

- I DID IT.
- YOU DEFACED MY WALL?

- WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?
- THOUGHT YOU WOULD LIKE IT.

I FEEL LIKE
I DON'T KNOW YOU.

SO THEN ANGELO MOVED
OUT OF THE GUEST HOUSE



- AND INTO OUR HOUSE.
- ( chuckles )

Zarra:
ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY.

YEAH, WE'RE STILL WORKING
ON THAT "HAPPY" PART.

HMM.

WHEN I WAS A KID, IT WAS JUST
ME AND MY MOM MOSTLY.

- MY DAD WAS IN AND OUT.
- ARE THEY DIVORCED?

THEY MIGHT
WELL HAVE BEEN.

OH, HE SPENT MORE TIME
WITH HIS CREW

THAN WITH US.

HE WAS A WRITER.

"NEPT2N."

YOUR DAD IS NEPT2N?

THE GUY WHO DID
THE BACK-TO-BACK

OFF THE BELL STREET
EXIT RAMP?

YEAH, YOU KNOW IT?

YEAH, DO I KNOW IT.
IT'S AWESOME.

NO ONE'S TOUCHED
THAT PIECE IN YEARS.

- HE'S A LEGEND.
- THE HELL IS THIS?

NO WAY.

DUDE.

THAT SON OF A BITCH.

THIS GUY'S BEEN
MARKING PIECES

ALL OVER THE NORTH SIDE.

WELL, MAYBE WE CAN FIX IT.

WHY? SO SMAK CAN COME
AND SLASH OUR STUFF AGAIN?

NO, DUDE.
THIS GUY BETTER WATCH OUT

THAT I DON'T FIND HIM, MAN.
IT'S ON NOW.

( shutter clicks )

YEAH, I, UH, FORGOT.

THE SINK IN THE COFFEE BAR
IS A LITTLE STOPPED UP.

IT'S DRAINING,
BUT IT'S RUNNING SLOWLY.

- MM-HMM.
- MY MAIN PROBLEM
IS IN THE KITCHEN.

THE DISHWASHER IS LEAKING
ALL OVER THE PLACE.

( theme music playing )

YOU COULD HAVE
JUST ASKED ME.

YOU DID NOT NEED
TO GO THROUGH MY THINGS!

WOULD YOU PLEASE
KEEP YOUR VOICE DOWN?

BAY, I KNOW IT'S BEEN
A HARD TIME FOR YOU LATELY

WITH EMMETT AND EVERYTHING.

MOM, NO.
THIS IS NOT ABOUT THAT.

IT'S NOT EVEN
ABOUT EMMETT.

I WAS DOING THIS
WAY BEFORE I EVER MET HIM.

HOW LONG HAS THIS
BEEN GOING ON?

- ABOUT TWO YEARS.
- John: WHAT?!

TWO YEARS?
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

WE HAVE ALWAYS
BEEN SUPPORTIVE

OF YOUR CREATIVITY.

ALL THOSE ART CLASSES?
ALL OF THIS?

AND THIS IS DANGEROUS.

WHAT IF SOMETHING
HAPPENED TO YOU?

NOT TO MENTION
YOU COULD WIND UP IN JAIL.

YES.

SO, WHAT? I'M GROUNDED
UNTIL I'M LIKE, 25?

YEAH.
BECAUSE THAT WORKS.

NO. WE'RE LEAVING
IT UP TO YOU.

WE KNOW WHO
YOU ARE AT HEART.

WE KNOW YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN RIGHT AND WRONG.

AND THAT YOU'RE
A PERSON OF INTEGRITY.

THIS IS A TEST, RIGHT?

KIND OF.

BE THE BAY KENNISH
WE TAUGHT YOU TO BE.

THE PERSON THAT
WE KNOW YOU ARE.

IT'S YOUR CALL.

WE CAN ACTIVATE
THE TRACKER APP ON HER PHONE

AT ANY TIME.

NO, WE HAVE TO GIVE HER
A CHANCE TO DO THE RIGHT THING.

AND THEN WE ACTIVATE
THE TRACKER APP.

( chuckles )

( grunts )

THANK YOU.

I GUESS I UNDERESTIMATED
HOW HEAVY THEY WERE.

OH YEAH.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

ANGELO HAS BEEN
HELPING OUT A LOT,

- BUT--
- OH, HOW'S IT GOING
IN LAKE MICHIGAN?

WELL, I JUST TALKED
TO HIM LAST NIGHT

AND HE SAID THAT
THE JOB IS GOING GREAT

AND YOUR FRIENDS'
LAKE HOUSE IS BEAUTIFUL.

- YEAH.
- ANOTHER THANK YOU
THAT I OWE YOU.

WELL, ANGELO'S
A WONDERFUL CARPENTER.

WHERE DO YOU
WANT THESE?

OH, OVER THERE
IS FINE.

SO, UM, DAPHNE'S
OPEN HOUSE AT CARLTON

IS THIS WEEK.

AND I THOUGHT
THAT MAYBE

YOU AND JOHN MIGHT
LIKE TO COME ALONG.

WE WOULD LOVE TO.

AND YOU KNOW,
IF YOU'RE HAVING ANY TROUBLE

TALKING TO HER TEACHERS,
MY SIGNINGS GETTING PRETTY GOOD.

I CAN INTERPRET
FOR ALL OF US.

THEY HAVE INTERPRETERS THERE.

NOT ALL THE KIDS'
PARENTS SIGN.

RIGHT.
OF COURSE.

OW.

UH, YOU KNOW,

JOHN HAS THIS AMAZING
ORTHOPEDIC SURGEON--

JASON FULLER.

HE'S WORKED ON
THE WHOLE TEAM.

I COULD GIVE YOU
HIS INFORMATION

AND IF YOU CAN'T GET
AN APPOINTMENT,

I COULD MAKE A CALL.

GREAT. THANKS.

* This cloud is gray

* Void of color

* This day...

- DAD.
- YEAH?

THANKS.

WHAT'S WITH THE MUSIC?

OH, IT'S A GREAT
LOCAL MUSICIAN

NAMED TOBY KENNISH.

CAN YOU PLEASE
TURN IT OFF?

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

YOU NEVER KNOW
WHO MIGHT COME THROUGH HERE,

HEAR YOUR MUSIC.

DAD, I APPRECIATE
THE SUPPORT,

BUT I'D LIKE HAVE
AN ACTUAL CAREER

BEFORE I BECOME MUZAK.

OH.

OKAY. SURE.

- THANKS.
- YEAH.

* I don't want
another day in my life *

* I don't want another day
in my life *

WELL.

( music stops )

HEY. WHAT ARE YOU--

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

NO NO. YOU FILED
THOSE YESTERDAY.

YOU'RE GOOD.

UM, WAIT A SECOND.

WHOA WHOA.

YOUR SHIFT IS OVER.

YOU GO HOME.
IT'S OKAY.

BYE-BYE.

IT'S FINE.
GO HOME.

GOOD NIGHT.
BYE-BYE.

Zarra:
WHAT, YOU JUST
UPLOADED SMAK'S TAG?

YEAH, I JUST
SEARCHED THE IMAGE

AND BINGO. IT LOOKS LIKE
WE'RE NOT THE ONLY ONES

THAT HE PISSED OFF.

OH, CLICK ON THAT ONE.

"THIS PUNK HIT
TWO OF MY PIECES

WITHIN 24 HOURS.

I HAT HIM."

( groans )

PRETTY SURE
HE MEANS "HATE."

I HAVE A FEELING THIS IS
MORE OF A VISUAL TYPE.

Zarra:
THIS GUY MOVES FAST.

IT'S ALMOST LIKE
HE KNOWS

WHEN THE PIECE
IS GONNA COME UP.

SO LET'S THROW OUT
SOME BAIT.

YEAH, WE'LL PUT UP
A NEW PIECE,

WE'LL POST IT ON THE BLOG,

AND THEN
WE'LL STAKE IT OUT.

SEE IF HE SHOWS UP
AND THEN BUST HIM.

IF WE COULD GET A PICTURE
OF HIM SLASHING OUR PIECE,

WE CAN POST THAT.
HE'D BE OUTED TO EVERYONE.

YEAH, EXACTLY.

( chuckles )

ALL RIGHT.
SO BUS GRAVEYARD TONIGHT?

I'LL BE DONE BY 6:00.

OH, HEY, ACTUALLY

I'M PROBABLY GONNA
HAVE TO SIT THIS ONE OUT.

WHY? ARE YOU
AFRAID OF THIS PUNK?

NO.

IT'S JUST THAT MY PARENTS
HAVE BEEN ON MY ASS LATELY

ABOUT GRADES AND STUFF.

I'M KIND OF ON PROBATION.

YOU KNOW, MY DAD ONLY
CARED ABOUT ONE THING.

ART.

HE SAID A TRUE ARTIST

PUTS HIS ART
BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE--

HIS FRIENDS,
FAMILY, COPS.

TEXTING YOUR BOYFRIEND
ON COMPANY TIME?

NO, I NEVER TOOK
MY BREAK EARLIER.

AND I DON'T HAVE
A BOYFRIEND.

GIRLFRIEND?

I'M JUST LOOKING
FOR THE NAME

OF THE NEW PASTRY CHEF
AT THE GREEN TREE BISTRO.

ARE YOU LOOKING
FOR A NEW JOB?

BECAUSE IF YOU
LEAVE ME SHORTHANDED,

I'M GONNA GIVE YOU
A TERRIBLE REFERENCE.

YOU NEVER WANTED ME HERE
IN THE FIRST PLACE.

THAT'S TRUE.

BUT NOW I'M SORT OF
USED TO HAVING YOU AROUND.

NO ONE ELSE LOOKS AT ME
SO INTENTLY WHEN I TALK.

( chuckles )
JUST CHECKING OUT
THE COMPETITION.

WELL, I CERTAINLY
LIKE THAT.

DO YOU WANT TO
COME WITH ME?

WHEN?

TOMORROW?

SURE. WHY NOT?

YEAH, WELL,

GOOD FOOD WILL
DEFINITELY HELP.

HI.

I SAW YOUR CAR.

DID I FORGET
WE HAD PLANS?

I CALLED CARLTON,

AND THEY TOLD ME
THAT MELODY NEEDED HELP

GETTING ORGANIZED.

THAT'S GREAT.

UM, NO.
I HAVE STUFF TO DO.

UM, I'M GONNA GO.

OKAY.

OH, WERE YOU ABLE
TO GET IN

TO SEE DR. FULLER?

I'M ON IT.

HEY, SWEETIE.
HEY.

HEY. HEY, YOU KNOW,
I GOT A QUESTION FOR YOU.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT TRAVIS?

YEAH, SWEETIE?
WHOA WHOA WHOA.

CAN YOU HELP ME OUT HERE?

HE'S OLDER THAN
THE OTHER KIDS AT SCHOOL.

UH-HUH.

HE GOT HELD BACK
AT HEARING SCHOOL

BEFORE HE WENT
TO CARLTON.

AND, UM.

HOW ABOUT HIS FAMILY?

I KNOW THEY DON'T SIGN.

AND THEY DON'T SEEM
VERY INTERESTED IN SCHOOL.

- WHY?
- YOU KNOW,
HE'S ALWAYS AT WORK.

HE NEVER WANTS
TO GO HOME. NEVER.

WHEN NO ONE
SIGNS AT HOME,

KIDS CAN FEEL
PRETTY LONELY.

SURE.

UH, YOUR TEXT
SOUNDED KIND OF URGENT.

IS EVERYTHING OKAY?

OKAY.

YEAH.

WOW. UH...

ISN'T HE HER BOSS?

WAIT WAIT.

YOUR MOM

AND THE GUY THAT DAPHNE
HAS A CRUSH ON

ARE HOOKING UP?

HOW OLD IS HE?

AND HE'S HEARING?

MELODY'S DATING
A HEARING GUY

AFTER ALL THE CRAP
THAT SHE GAVE ME?

YEAH, YOU THINK?

SO I'M ASSUMING
DAPHNE DOESN'T KNOW

ABOUT YOUR MOM
AND THE GUY?

WELL, DAPHNE'D BE
SUPER EMBARRASSED,

AND IT'S JUST A CRUSH.

IT PROBABLY WON'T
TURN INTO ANYTHING.

I SAY NO, JUST KEEP IT
TO YOURSELF.

I WAS THINKING
ABOUT YOU TODAY ACTUALLY.

I'VE BEEN WANTING
TO TAKE SOME PICTURES

OF SOME PIECES
THAT I'VE PUT UP
AROUND THE BUS YARD.

AND I WAS WONDERING IF I
COULD BORROW YOUR CAMERA?

NO THANKS.
I'LL BE CAREFUL.

I REALLY APPRECIATE THIS.

BUT NOTHING HAS CHANGED

WITH US.

THE PLAZA?
WHAT'S GOING ON THERE?

YEAH, I DON'T KNOW.

I'LL LET YOU KNOW
IF I'LL MEET UP WITH YOU.

ALL RIGHT.
PEACE.

WATERFALL--
CARTON DIDN'T
TOUCH THE LIPS.

OH.

SO...

HOW DO YOU FEEL
ABOUT HANG GLIDING?

TERRIFIED. WHY?

I DON'T KNOW.

OKAY, HOW ABOUT
A MOVIE?

DAD, I'M FINE.

YOU AND MOM JUST
NEED TO RELAX.

WE'RE NOT WORRIED
ABOUT YOU.

YOU KNOW,
IT'S JUST--

YOU AND ME--

DAD, WE'RE FINE.

THE CAT'S IN THE CRADLE.

OR IT'S NOT.

I DON'T KNOW.
WELL, WHATEVER'S GOOD.

OKAY. YOU WANT TO HANG
WITH KIDS YOUR OWN AGE,

I GET IT.
I GET IT.

IT'S NOTHING
PERSONAL.

CHEVES AND BURF
AND THE GUYS

ARE MEETING
DOWN AT THE PLAZA.

OH, SOUNDS LIKE FUN.

HAVE A GOOD TIME.

AND USE A GLASS
NEXT TIME.

I DON'T CARE
HOW MANY FANCY SAUCES
YOU PUT WITH THEM.

DONUTS ARE NOT FOOD.

- THEY'RE A FAD.
- OH, YEAH.

IS THAT WHY
YOU ATE SEVEN OF THEM?

I DID NOT EAT SEVEN.

YES, YOU DID.

THERE WERE
NINE ON THE PLATE

AND I HAD TWO.

SO,

YOU'RE A SCOREKEEPER.

OH, NO. I JUST
LIKE TO MAKE SURE

I GET MY FAIR SHARE.

YOU THINK
THE WORLD IS FAIR.

AND YOU KEEP TRYING
TO TELL ME WHO I AM.

YOU LIKE TO ARGUE.

HEY, PARDON ME.

SORRY.

IT'S NO PROBLEM.

WHAT IF I'M NOTHING

LIKE WHO
YOU THINK I AM?

THEN I GUESS I'D BETTER
GET TO KNOW YOU BETTER.

I SHOULD GO.

THAT, UH--
THAT'S PROBABLY
A GOOD IDEA.

GOOD NIGHT.

GOOD NIGHT.

YOU KNOW, NOT TO MENTION
THE FACT THAT ANGELO

ALWAYS LEAVES THE 40-POUND
PLATES IN THE CURL BAR.

NOW, LOOK,
I CAN HANDLE THAT,

BUT NOT WHEN
I'M WARMING UP.

( sighs )

MAYBE SHE
CAN'T AFFORD IT.

- WHAT?
- REGINA.

SHE STILL HASN'T
CALLED DR. FULLER.

MAYBE THE REASON
SHE HASN'T

IS BECAUSE
SHE CAN'T AFFORD IT.

WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT KIND OF
HEALTH INSURANCE SHE HAS.

YOU KNOW, I HAD FORGOTTEN
THE PRE-BOOK WHIRLWIND

THAT IS KATHRYN KENNISH.

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

OH, I DON'T KNOW.
YOU FOUND ANGELO A JOB,

YOU'RE COORDINATING
THE CARLTON OPEN HOUSE,

YOU'RE MICROMANAGING
REGINA'S HEALTH CARE.

YOU DO LIKE
A PROJECT OR THREE.

YEAH, BUT REGINA
NOT SIGNING

HAS TO BE AFFECTING
DAPHNE.

SO,

MAYBE WE SHOULD
ASK REGINA

IF SHE NEEDS SOME HELP
WITH HER MEDICAL BILLS.

SWEETIE, DAPHNE'S FINE
AND REGINA HAS NEVER
RESPONDED WELL

WHEN WE INTERFERE
IN HER PERSONAL AFFAIRS.

PLUS IT IS NEVER
A GOOD IDEA

TO LEND MONEY
TO FRIENDS.

REMEMBER RUDY METZGER?

WHEN I INVESTED IN HIS
SPORTING GOODS STORE?

YEAH, WELL,
REGINA IS NOT A FRIEND.

SHE'S FAMILY.

YEAH, THAT RAISES
THE STAKES.

WHERE DO WE STOP?

HER SISTER,
HER COUSIN? WHAT?

OH, COME ON.

HONEY, IT IS
A SLIPPERY SLOPE

THAT ONLY ENDS WITH
EVERYONE FEELING BAD.

"I REALLY APPRECIATE
WHAT YOU'RE DOING
FOR CARLTON."

IT IS MY PLEASURE.

ALTHOUGH, I AM GOING
TO MAKE ONE CHANGE.

I'M GOING TO SUBSTITUTE
THE SHORT RIB TACOS

FOR THE LO POBRE.

IT'S A SIGNATURE
DISH FOR US.

DID YOU GET
ANY OF THAT?

NO.

YES.

( chuckles )

I'D LOVE TO.

UNFORTUNATELY
I HAVE TO WORK LATE.

OKAY.

RAIN CHECK.

RAIN CHECK.
GOT IT.

WELL, THANK YOU
FOR DINNER.

I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.

- YEAH.
- OKAY.

BYE.

OH, HEY.

WHAT ARE
YOU LOOKING FOR?

BUTTER.

I'M MAKING COOKIES.

I RAN OUT.

I'M NO CHEF,

BUT I THINK...

THAT THIS IS WHAT
YOU'RE LOOKING FOR.

YEAH.

ARE YOU OKAY?

YEAH.

CHEF AND I
ALMOST KISSED.

UHH...

HOW ALMOST?

IF I HADN'T GOTTEN
INTO MY CAR,

IT TOTALLY
WOULD HAVE HAPPENED.

ISN'T HE
A LITTLE OLD FOR YOU?

WELL, JOHN'S OLDER
THAN KATHRYN.

RIGHT?

YES, BUT IT'S
ONLY BY A FEW YEARS.

PLUS HE WAS
NEVER HER BOSS.

AND, YOU KNOW,

THEY DIDN'T MEET
UNTIL WAY AFTER

SHE FINISHED COLLEGE.

WOW.

WHEN DID YOU START
FOLLOWING ALL THE RULES?

DAPHNE.

I THINK THERE'S SOMETHING
YOU NEED TO KNOW

ABOUT THIS GUY.

HONEY, THERE'S TRAVIS.

OH, YEAH.

WHY IS EVERYTHING
SO SMALL?

IT'S TAPAS.

MAYBE HIS PARENTS CAME.

WHO?

TRAVIS. MAYBE
HIS PARENTS ARE HERE.

IT'S UNLIKELY, GIVEN WHAT
MELODY WAS TELLING US.

YEAH, WELL,

I THINK YOU
SHOULD FIND THEM

AND ENCOURAGE THEM
TO LEARN A.S.L.

SWEETIE, I'M NOT
EXACTLY A MODEL

OF CONNECTING
WITH CHILDREN.

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

WELL, I HARDLY SPEND
ANY TIME WITH DAPHNE ANYMORE

NOW THAT BASKETBALL'S OVER.

BAY IS... BAY.

TOBY'S BECOMING
UNREACHABLE.

NOBODY GETS
UNADULTERATED LOVE

FROM THEIR TEENAGERS.

ALL RIGHT.

I THINK
WE'RE ALL SET.

YOU CAN GO AHEAD
AND GO, MEG.

THANKS FOR COMING IN.

NO PROBLEM.

YOU WANT ME TO TELL DAPHNE
TO COME OVER AND HELP?

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

DAPHNE.

ISN'T SHE HERE
TO HELP SERVE?

DEAF GIRL,
DEAF SCHOOL.

NO, THAT'S OKAY.
THANK YOU.

SEE YOU TOMORROW.

WOW.

IT LOOKS WONDERFUL.

THANK YOU.

WHY IS DAPHNE HERE?

SHE'S A STUDENT HERE.

UH, RIGHT.
( chuckles )

HEY!

OH. WHO IS NIKKI?

NOBODY.

WELL, THE FLYER SAYS

"MY HEART BELONGS
TO JESUS,"

BUT THE HANDWRITING SAYS

"EVERYTHING ELSE
IS NEGOTIABLE."

BAY.

FINE.

SO, UH...

YOU HEARD ABOUT
MOM AND DAD

RAIDING MY
ART STUDIO, RIGHT?

( chuckles )

"BE THE KENNISH
WE KNOW YOU ARE."

I'M SUPPOSED
TO HELP A FRIEND

PUT UP SOME NEW PIECES,
SORT OF.

SHOULD I JUST BAIL?

WELL, YOU COULD GO
SEE A MOVIE

WITH CHEVES, BURF, AND I.

WHY WOULD I DO THAT?

BECAUSE IT WOULD
GIVE YOU TWO PLUS HOURS

WORTH OF ALIBI.

YOU COULD DO
WHATEVER YOU WANT.

MM. NO--
I DON'T KNOW.

COME ON.
DON'T ACTUALLY FALL

FOR "OPERATION
MAKE GOOD CHOICES."

IT'S WHAT THEY DO
WHEN THEY GOT NOTHING LEFT.

THEY KEPT GIVING ME
DISAPPOINTY FACE.

( sighs )

DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES
WILKE AND I PLAYED

SEEDY DIVE BARS?

NO.

EXACTLY.
BECAUSE I ALWAYS SAID

THAT WE WERE PLAYING
COFFEE SHOPS.

YOU CAN'T DISAPPOINT THEM

UNLESS THEY KNOW
YOU'VE DISAPPOINTED THEM.

HMM.

WELL, IN THAT CASE,

I HAVE A MOVIE
TO NOT SEE.

( chuckles )

HEY, YOU SHOULD
DITCH TOO.

GIVE THAT NIKKI GIRL
A CALL.

I'M NOT SURE ABOUT HER.

SHE'S PRETTY CHURCH-Y.

HMM.

WELL, THEN THERE'S
A GOOD CHANCE THAT SHE WON'T

SLEEP WITH MY BOYFRIEND,

SO I LIKE HER ALREADY.

AND JUDGING BY THE WAY
YOU'RE LOOKING AT THAT FLYER,

SO DO YOU.

HEY.

HOW'S-- HOW'S THE FOOD?

YEAH. TAPAS.

BELIEVE ME,
I DON'T GET IT EITHER.

SO HOW'S
WORK STUDY GOING?

ARE YOU KEEPING
YOUR GRADES UP?

YEAH. IT'S GREAT.

THAT'S TOUGH.

I'M IMPRESSED.

( chuckles )

THERE YOU ARE.

WHERE ARE YOUR--
WHERE ARE YOUR PARENTS?

SO YOU CAME
WITHOUT THEM?

JUST FOR THE FOOD, HUH?

WOULD YOU EXCUSE ME
FOR ONE MOMENT?

SURE.

( sighs )

UH, CHEF?

( giggles )

DID YOU BRING ANY
OF THOSE FRIED ARTICHOKES?

MY FRIEND WANTS
TO TRY SOME.

NO, I DIDN'T.

SORRY.

HAVE YOU TRIED
ACUPUNCTURE?

YES. I DIDN'T NOTICE
MUCH IMPROVEMENT.

OH, THAT'S TERRIBLE.

I AM SO SORRY
TO INTERRUPT.

REGINA, COULD YOU DO
THE A.S.L. SIGN-UPS?

OH ,SURE.

SHE IS THE PERFECT
PERSON TO ASK.

REGINA WAS SUCH
AN INSPIRATION

WHEN WE WERE
FIRST LEARNING.

OH, SHE'S AN INSPIRATION
TO ALL OF US.

OH, UM. CANDACE,
THIS IS KATHRYN KENNISH.

HI.

OH. YOU'RE DAPHNE'S
REAL MOTHER.

IT IS SO NICE
TO MEET YOU.

I READ YOUR BOOK.

IT WAS GREAT.
WHAT A STORY.

THANK YOU,

BUT WE'RE BOTH
REAL MOTHERS...

OH, OF COURSE.

I-- I'M--

YOU KNOW, I'M GONNA GO SEE
IF I CAN FIND SOME RECRUITS.

WHAT IF SMAK
DOESN'T SHOW?

GOTTA LEARN SOME
PATIENCE, MY FRIEND.

WHAT'D YOU TELL
YOUR PARENTS

ABOUT WHERE YOU WERE?

THAT I WAS
AT THE MOVIES.

HMM.

THAT'S NOT
ENTIRELY UNTRUE.

I MEAN WE ARE SITTING HERE

LOOKING AT A PICTURE.

IT'S JUST NOT MOVING,
THAT'S ALL.

DO YOU STILL
LIVE WITH YOUR MOM?

NO. WHEN I TURNED 18,

SHE MARRIED SOME LOSER
AND MOVED OUT.

THERE'S THIS, LIKE,
GRAVEYARD

OF ABANDONED TRAILERS
BY THE RAILROAD.

I KIND OF
MADE ONE MY OWN.

IT MUST BE NICE,
YOU KNOW,

NOT TO HAVE TO
EXPLAIN TO ANYBODY

WHERE YOU'RE GOING
OR WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

I HAVE ROOM FOR A ROOMMATE
IF YOU'RE LOOKING.

YEAH. THAT'D BE REALLY HARD
TO EXPLAIN TO MY PARENTS.

COME ON, YOU DON'T
HAVE IT SO BAD.

MY FOLKS COULD NEVER AFFORD
TO GIVE ME SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

OKAY, THIS IS NOT MINE.

IT'S A FRIEND'S.

WELL, I DON'T HAVE
ANY FRIENDS WHO CAN AFFORD

TOYS LIKE THAT, EITHER.

WELL, AT LEAST
YOU DON'T HAVE TO LIE.

I GET REALLY TIRED
OF THAT SOMETIMES.

SO STOP LYING.

HEY. HEY.

DID YOU KNOW THAT MELODY
WAS DATING MY BOSS?

YES.

WELL, NO ONE ASKED ME
IF I WAS OKAY WITH IT.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN
YOU GUYS BREAK UP

AND HE TAKES IT
OUT ON ME?

BECAUSE YOU KNOW HIM
SO WELL.

UM...

WOULD YOU EXCUSE US?

( exhales )

I DON'T THINK THIS IS
JUST ABOUT MELODY

DATING CHEF.

WHAT ELSE
WOULD IT BE ABOUT?

WELL, I'M WONDERING

IF MAYBE YOU'RE STARTING
TO HAVE FEELINGS FOR HIM?

THAT'S CRAZY.

WHY WOULD YOU
THINK THAT?

ALL THE PRETTY
NEW CLOTHES FOR WORK,

ALL THE TIME
SPENT GETTING READY

BEFORE YOU GO IN?

WE HAVE TO GO
TO MY HISTORY CLASS.

THEY'LL BE
CLOSING UP SOON.

WHAT-- HONEY.

( sighs )

IT'S NOTHING
TO BE ASHAMED ABOUT.

I DO NOT HAVE
A CRUSH ON CHEF.

WELL, GOOD.

BECAUSE HE'S TOTALLY
INAPPROPRIATE FOR YOU.

HE'S TOO OLD,
HE'S YOUR BOSS,

AND JUDGING BY
HOW QUICKLY

HE AND MELODY
GOT TOGETHER--

YOU'RE TALKING
TOO FAST.

I CAN'T READ
YOUR LIPS.

OKAY.

MY BUTT'S NUMB. I THINK
I GOT BIT BY SOMETHING.

ARE THERE CHIGGERS OUT
THIS TIME OF YEAR?

OKAY, WE NEED TO GET HIM
TO TURN AROUND.

HEY, DOUCHE BAG!

ZARRA, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

ZARRA!

ONE LITTLE QUESTION,

SO YOU JUST COME HERE

AND MARK ALL OVER
SOMEONE ELSE'S WORK

LIKE SOME
SORRY ASS DOG?

YEAH. WHAT'S
IT TO YOU, HUH?

UH, THIS IS
MY PIECE, JACKASS.

HOW ABOUT YOU GET OUT
OF MY WAY, ALL RIGHT?

( scoffs )

YO. HEY!

- THE HELL DO YOU
THINK YOU'RE DOING?, HUH?
- I TOLD YOU TO GET OUT OF HERE.

GET OUT!

( grunts )

CRAP.

HEY!

HEY.

GET OUT OF HERE, DUDE.

- YO.
- I'M GONNA CUT HIM.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

WHAT?
YOU WANT TO GO?

- WHOA. CHILL!
- I'LL GO!

YOU'RE NOT GONNA
DISS MY WORK AGAIN.

- GET OUT OF HERE!
- CRAZY BITCH, YO.

ALL RIGHT,
GET OUT OF HERE!

YOU SLASH MY PIECE
ONE MORE TIME,

I WILL MESS YOU UP!

WHAT THE HELL
ARE YOU THINKING?

YOU WERE GONNA
CUT HIM?

WITH WHAT?!

PAINT SCRAPER.
( chuckles )

A PAINT SCRAPER?

ARE YOU INSANE?
WHAT IF HE WENT AFTER YOU?

( chuckles )
I'D HAVE BEEN SCREWED.

OKAY, YOU KNOW WHAT?
YOU CALLED HIM OUT

ON EVERYTHING.

OH MY-- AND "HEY,
YOU WANT TO GO?

- LET'S GO!"
- HE'S LIKE "CRAZY BITCH."

HE WAS SO SCARED.
DID YOU SEE THAT?

- IT WAS SO COOL.
- ( laughing )

OH, MAN.

UM, I CAN DRIVE YOU HOME

IF YOU-- IF YOU NEED.

WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA.

YOU-- YOU AND DAPHNE
ARE GOING OUT?

BOWLING, HUH?

I'M GOING TO TRUST
THAT YOU JUST SAID

YOU'RE GOING TO BE
A PERFECT GENTLEMAN

WHEN YOU'RE OUT
WITH MY DAUGHTER.

MM-HMM.
YOU'D BETTER BE.

BYE.

EMMETT.

NICE TO SEE YOU.

I THINK I'LL GO SEE
IF MELODY NEEDS SOME HELP.

HELLO! HELLO HELLO!

ATTENTION EVERYONE.

COME UP TO THE STAGE.

THANKS FOR COMING.
COME ON UP TO THE FRONT.

Rose:
THANK YOU ALL
FOR COMING TONIGHT.

IT'S WONDERFUL TO SEE
SO MANY PEOPLE HERE.

A SPECIAL THANK YOU
TO OUR ORGANIZERS,

MELODY BLEDSOE

AND KATHRYN KENNISH.

THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.

OH! AND A SPECIAL
THANK YOU

TO CHEF JEFF REYCRAFT

AND MAIZE RESTAURANT

FOR THE FANTASTIC
FOOD, HUH?

- THANK YOU.
- WELL, GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE.

AND REMEMBER,
OUR MAGAZINE DRIVE

STARTS NEXT WEEK.

SO SUBSCRIBE AND HELP
SUPPORT OUR SCHOOL.

CAN YOU HELP
CLEAN UP OVER THERE?

THANKS.

KATHRYN,
HAVE YOU SEEN DAPHNE?

UH, SHE WENT BACK
TO THE RESTAURANT TO HELP.

I ASSUMED
YOU'D OKAYED IT.

RIGHT. I FORGOT.
I'LL SEE YOU AT HOME.

WAIT, REGINA.

I KNOW HOW HARD
IT'S BEEN FOR YOU

NOT SIGNING AT HOME
WITH DAPHNE.

- WE'RE FINE.
- AND IF THE REASON

YOU HAVEN'T GONE
TO SEE DR. FULLER

- IS FINANCIAL--
- STOP.

LOOK, I'M NOT TRYING
TO OFFEND--

KATHRYN, STOP.

NOT THAT IT'S ANY
OF YOUR BUSINESS,

BUT I DID GO SEE
DR. FULLER,

AND HE TOLD ME
THE SAME THING

THAT MY DOCTOR HAS BEEN
TELLING ME FOR MONTHS.

THERE'S NO MAGIC BULLET.

IT JUST TAKES TIME
TO HEAL.

I'M SORRY.

- I WAS JUST TRYING TO--
- I KNOW WHAT YOU WERE
TRYING TO DO,

AND I NEED YOU TO STOP.

DO YOU HONESTLY THINK
THAT IF THERE WAS ANYTHING

THAT WOULD HELP ME
TO COMMUNICATE WITH DAPHNE

THE WAY THAT WE USED TO,
THAT I WOULDN'T MOVE

HEAVEN AND EARTH OR GROVEL
TO YOU FOR THE MONEY

IN ORDER TO
MAKE THAT HAPPEN?

John:
NICE TO MEET YOU.

BYE. BYE.

WHAT ARE
YOU DOING HERE?

UH, DAPHNE WENT
TO THE RESTAURANT

TO HELP.

OH.

OH, IS THAT RIGHT?

HEY, HEY.
WHOA WHOA WHOA.

UM, I CAN DRIVE YOU
HOME IF YOU WANT?

YOU KNOW WHAT?
I GOT A BETTER IDEA.

WHY DON'T YOU AND I

GO TO THE BATTING CAGES?

YEAH.
I KNOW THE OWNER.

HE'LL LET US IN.

HEY, NO NO.
HEY, HEY, HEY.

NOT JUST FOR YOU.

COME ON.

I'M GONNA PRETEND
I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THAT.

- HEY.
- HI.

SORRY TO BOTHER YOU,
BUT DID, UM...

DAPHNE TELL YOU WHAT TIME
SHE WAS COMING HOME?

SHE'S NOT ANSWERING
MY TEXTS.

NO, SHE DIDN'T.

THANKS.

LOOK, TO BE TOTALLY HONEST,

DAPHNE DIDN'T TELL ME
SHE WAS GOING BACK TO WORK.

SHE ONLY TOLD YOU.

WELL, SHE LEFT IN A HURRY
IF THAT'S ANY HELP.

I FEEL LIKE I'M
LOSING TOUCH WITH DAPHNE

AND I TOOK IT OUT ON YOU,
AND I'M SORRY.

( sighs )

ME TOO.

MAYBE I'VE
OVERSTEPPED.

( sighs )
IT'S OKAY.

I KNOW YOU MEAN WELL.

WANT SOME TEA?

SURE. THANKS.

WE JUST FOUND OUT
THAT BAY'S BEEN
DOING STREET ART

FOR THE PAST
TWO YEARS.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

SPRAY PAINT,

SNEAKING OUT,

PUTTING UP
ILLEGAL PAINTINGS

ON WALLS ALL OVER
THE CITY.

WOW.

( chuckles )
YOU DIDN'T KNOW?

I JUST ASSUMED

SHE TALKING TO YOU
ABOUT THINGS LIKE THAT.

NOT THIS TIME.

WANT TO SIT DOWN?

SURE.

HERE YOU GO.

SO WHAT'D YOU DO?

WE APPEALED
TO HER BETTER SELF,

HER SENSE
OF RIGHT AND WRONG.

BOLD MOVE.

( sighs )
SOMETIMES I HATE

THAT THEY'RE GROWING UP.

YOU ARE SO MUCH EASIER
TO COMPETE WITH

THAN ADULTHOOD.

( laughs )

WELL, HEY, BAY.

HOW WAS THE MOVIE?

I DIDN'T GO
TO THE MOVIES.

I WANT TO BE THE PERSON
THAT YOU RAISED ME TO BE,

BUT I'M ALSO THE PERSON
THAT I WAS BORN TO BE.

I'M AN ARTIST.

AND I DON'T WANT
TO LIE TO YOU ANYMORE.

BUT I'M ALSO
NOT GONNA STOP

DOING STREET ART.

GOOD NIGHT.

HEY, NINJA.

YOU SLIP IN,
YOU SLIP OUT

UNDER COVER
OF DARKNESS.

YOU SEEMED BUSY.

OH, CHATTY GROUP.

WILL YOU COME BACK?

I'M THINKING
ABOUT IT.

SO, UH...

YOU WANT TO HANG OUT?

MAYBE GO TO THE PLAZA
OR SOMETHING?

I'M NOT MUCH
OF A PLAZA GIRL.

I ALWAYS GET
TOO COLD

AND NOBODY EVER
SITS DOWN.

WELL, I KNOW
A WARM COFFEE SHOP

WITH LOTS OF CHAIRS.

- ( chuckles )
- HOW ARE YOU
AT BACKGAMMON?

YOU ARE SO
GONNA REGRET THIS.

I AM AWESOME
AT BACKGAMMON.

I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

NO NINJA ACTION
WHILE I'M GONE.

DAPHNE.

WHAT ARE
YOU DOING HERE?

I NEED TO KNOW
WHAT'S GOING ON.

I WAS JUST
PUTTING STUFF AWAY

AND GETTING READY
TO GO HOME.

THAT'S NOT
WHAT I MEAN.

YOU'RE IN HIGH SCHOOL.

SO?

I THOUGHT YOU WERE
IN COLLEGE.

WHY WOULD
YOU THINK THAT?

I NEVER LOOKED
AT YOUR APPLICATION.

YOU GETTING HIRED
WAS A DONE DEAL.

I HEARD "STUDENT,"
I MET YOU.

I ASSUMED
YOU WERE IN COLLEGE.

SO NOW YOU DON'T
LIKE ME ANYMORE?

NO, THAT'S--

THAT'S NOT THE POINT.

IT IS TO ME.

PLUS, YOU'RE MY EMPLOYEE.

IT DIDN'T MATTER
THE OTHER NIGHT
IN THE PARKING LOT.

* I CAN'T SLEEP
WITHOUT YOU ANYMORE... *

WELL, IT SHOULD HAVE.

YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT ME
WHEN YOU'RE TALKING.

* LISTEN TO THE LULLABY...

I WANT THIS TO HAPPEN.

* I NEED YOU NOW

* I NEED YOU NOW

* I NEED YOU NOW

* OH OH, I NEED YOU NOW

* I NEED YOU NOW

* I NEED YOU NOW

* I NEED YOU NOW

* I NEED YOU NOW

* I NEED YOU NOW

* I NEED YOU NOW.
