Switched at Birth (2011–2017): Season 1, Episode 29 - The Trial - full transcript

PREVIOUSLY ON
"SWITCHED AT BIRTH"...

I'D LOVE TO.

UNFORTUNATELY, I HAVE
TO WORK LATE.

ARE YOU STILL
SEEING MELODY?

NO, I-I ENDED THAT.

OKAY.

MS. VANDERNOOT, WERE THERE
ANY HOSPITAL POLICIES

THAT MIGHT HAVE CONTRIBUTED
TO THE SWITCH?

THEY'RE LAYING
THE GROUNDWORK

FOR THE COMING OF
THE ANTICHRIST.

MOST OF THE TIME
SHE GIVES A VERY



CONVINCING PORTRAIT
OF THE HOSPITAL'S

- NEGLIGENCE.
- REALLY?

I WAS THINKING ABOUT

STARTING UP
THE BAND AGAIN.

YEAH.

OKAY, WHAT JUST HAPPENED?

I CAN HANDLE BEING WITH
A WOMAN IN A FAKE MARRIAGE.

I JUST CAN'T HANDLE BEING
WITH A WOMAN IN A REAL ONE.

Bay: THIS IS
MY FRIEND ZARRA.

WHAT'S UP?
NICE TO MEET YOU.

Bay, it's Zarra.
I'm in the county jail.

WHAT?!

I NEED TO BORROW
SOME MONEY FROM THE SAFE.

1,200.



BUT I'M GONNA PAY IT
BACK BY TOMORROW.

I PROMISE.

ME TOO.

( cellphone ringing )

ZARRA, HEY.

PLEASE TELL ME
YOU HAVE THE MONEY.

I don't.
Uh, I'm trying.

You there?

- YEAH.
- I'm really sorry.

( sighs )

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
I'LL FIGURE SOMETHING OUT.

TOBY THREW IN 250

AND I FOUND ANOTHER 20
IN SOME PANTS.

WELL, I'M-- I'M WORKING
ON THE REST.

( stammering )
YEAH. OF COURSE.

OKAY, I-- I GET IT.

I KNOW. I--

( sighs )

( theme music playing )

YOU MEAN,
BESIDES THE BEDROOM?

( chuckles )

YEAH, I ALWAYS LIKE
TO BE THE ONE TO CALL IT.

( sighs )
THE OLD "NOW HE
HAS TO CALL ME"

INSURANCE POLICY.

ON THE BRIGHT SIDE,

AT LEAST NOW YOU'RE
NOT DATING A GUY THAT

DAPHNE HAS A CRUSH ON.

MM-HMM.

PLEASE!

YOU WERE PROBABLY MORE
THAN HE COULD HANDLE.

I SHOULDN'T HAVE SAID
ANYTHING ABOUT DAPHNE.

I'M SURE SHE'S
OVER IT ANYWAY.

Jeff:
GRACIAS, SEÑOR.

WHAT DID YOU ORDER?

OH MY GOD!
THOSE STILL HAVE LEGS!

THAT'S WHAT MAKES
THEM SO CRUNCHY.

BEST CHAPULINES
IN THE MIDWEST.

- HERE.
- OH, NO, THANK YOU.

I'LL STICK TO MY TACOS.

YOU KNOW THOSE BEANS
HAVE LARD IN THEM.

ARE YOU SERIOUSLY GONNA
BUG ME ABOUT LARD

WHEN YOU'RE ABOUT
TO EAT GRASSHOPPERS?

I'M SORRY,
DID YOU SAY "BUG"?

DON'T!

COME ON, I THOUGHT
YOU'D BE IN FAVOR OF THIS.

THIS IS A HUMANE
SOURCE OF PROTEIN.

HALF THE WORLD
EATS INSECTS.

THAT DOESN'T MAKE IT
ANY LESS DISGUSTING!

YOU ALREADY EAT SHRIMP.

SHRIMP ARE BASICALLY
THE BUGS OF THE OCEAN.

SEE, THE ONLY THING
HOLDING YOU BACK IS

BLIND OBEDIENCE TO SOME
RANDOM CULTURAL IDEA.

GO AHEAD.

- MM.
- COME ON.

( chuckles )

( exhales )

- OH, GOD.
- IT'S OKAY. GO AHEAD.

AND SHE LIKES IT.

WHAT? I'M AN
OPEN-MINDED WOMAN.

WHICH I LOVE
ABOUT YOU.

DO YOU WANNA GET YOUR OWN?
OR ARE YOU JUST GONNA KEEP...

( knocks on door )

I DIDN'T KNOW
YOU WERE BACK.

- IS ANYBODY--
- COAST IS CLEAR.

AND YOU DON'T HAVE
TO WORRY ABOUT

RUNNING INTO
PATRICK ANYMORE.

OH. WHAT HAPPENED?
WHY?

WHAT DO YOU THINK
HAPPENED?

HE GOT TIRED OF DATING
A MARRIED WOMAN.

( sighs )

WHAT ABOUT YOUR JOB?

THEY LET YOU LEAVE
IN THE MIDDLE OF IT?

THINGS CAME TO
AN EARLY RESOLUTION.

YOU GOT FIRED.

NO. WHY DO YOU
ASSUME THAT?

YEARS OF EXPERIENCE.

THE WIFE TOLD ME
SHE WANTED WALNUT CABINETS.

I ORDERED WALNUT.
THE HUSBAND WANTED OAK.

THE MILL FACTORY
ALREADY CUT THE WALNUT.

HE'S SCREAMING AT ME
THAT IT'S MY FAULT.

SO YOU QUIT.

I DIDN'T WANT TO SWALLOW
THE ENTIRE COST.

OR HAVE THEM RECOMMEND YOU
TO THEIR FRIENDS FOR MORE WORK.

YOU KNOW, I DON'T
WANNA FIGHT.

I JUST WANT TO KNOW IF
YOU'RE COMING TO THE TRIAL.

YOU KNOW MY SITUATION.
UNLESS I'M CALLED TO TESTIFY,

I HAVE NO PLACE IN IT.

I WAS HOPING YOU COULD
COME FOR ME.

I'M SORRY.

OH. HEY, GUYS.

NIKKI, THIS IS EMMETT.

THE DRUMMER I WAS
TELLING YOU ABOUT.

OH, COOL. I'M NIKKI.

NIKKI.

HE WANTS TO CHECK OUT
THE DRUMS.

OH, YEAH. TOTALLY.
BE MY GUEST.

( Emmett drums )

I KNOW THIS IS GOING
TO SOUND TERRIBLE,

BUT I HONESTLY THOUGHT YOU
WERE KIDDING WHEN YOU SAID

YOU HAD A DEAF DRUMMER.

I WAS SKEPTICAL
AT FIRST TOO,

BUT JUST GIVE HIM
A LISTEN,

- THEN MAKE UP YOUR MIND.
- ( exhales )

SO, UH, WE'LL JUST START
PLAYING ONE OF HER SONGS

AND THEN YOU JUST
PICK IT UP, PLAY ALONG.

( chuckles )

YOU KNOW WHAT?
WHY DON'T YOU JUST

START A BEAT?

( playing slow, simple beat )

( bass joins in )

( guitar joins in )

I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU LISTEN
TO YOUR MUSIC THAT LOUD.

I WOULD SAY YOU'RE GONNA
RUIN YOUR EARS, BUT...

- ( exhales )
- ( chuckles )

SO YOU NEVER PLAY
MUSIC IN THE KITCHEN?

UH... NO.

MUSIC'S FOR THE FLOOR.

OH, RIGHT.

YOU WOULDN'T WANT ANYONE
TO HAVE ANY FUN AT WORK.

EXCUSE ME!
AM I NOT FUN?

MAYBE NOW.

BUT AT WORK YOU'RE
TOTALLY STRESSED OUT.

( chuckles )
YOU SAY "STRESSED OUT."

- I SAY FOCUSED.
- OH.

I HAVE SOME GELATO.

DO YOU FEEL LIKE COMING UP
FOR SOME DESSERT?

OH, UH...

I DON'T KNOW.

OH, I'M SORRY.
TOO FOCUSED?

I'VE ALREADY HAD BUGS TONIGHT.
WHAT'S A LITTLE GELATO?

( both chuckling )

( music playing )

( guitar reverberates,
stops )

WOW.

YEAH, THAT WAS
SOUL-ADJACENT.

NO, THAT WAS AMAZING.

I MEAN, TELL HIM.
THAT WAS FANTASTIC.

YEAH, I THINK HE GETS IT.

UH, HE SAYS YOU'RE NOT
SO BAD YOURSELF.

THANK YOU.

SO, UH,
WHAT DO YOU THINK?

SAME TIME TOMORROW?

OH. NO, I CAN'T.
I HAVE TO WORK.

SOUP KITCHEN?
FEEDING THE HUNGRY?

CLOTHING THE...

- NAKED?
- UH. ( chortles )

NO, NOT EXACTLY.

YOU KNOW LUCIE'S
FROZEN YOGURT?

OH, YEAH! COOL.
I MEAN, UH,

COOL-- I-I LIKE
THAT PLACE,

NOT YOU CAN'T
REHEARSE TOMORROW.

ALL RIGHT.

( laughing )
OKAY.

WELL, I WANT
A PHOTO OF THIS.

YOU KNOW?
OUR FIRST OFFICIAL PHOTO

OF, UM--

WE'RE GONNA NEED A NAME.

SO, I GUESS WE'RE A BAND?

OKAY, WE'RE A BAND!

ALL RIGHT!

( quietly )
ALL RIGHT.

( shutter clicks )

AWESOME SAUCE.

( chuckles )
AWESOME SAUCE?

YEAH. YOU KNOW?

ALL RIGHT. WELL,

I'LL TEXT YOU LATER
TO FIGURE OUT A TIME.

- COOL.
- OKAY.

BYE, EMMETT.

WHAT?

NO. WE'RE NOT--

SHE HAS A BOYFRIEND.

REALLY.

HIS NAME IS JED.

WHAT WAS THAT?

RIGHT.

IT'S A GOOD SIGN.

GOAT CHEESE AND FIG.

NO, THANKS.
I'M STILL THINKING
ABOUT THOSE GRASSHOPPERS.

WHO'S THAT?

MM. THAT'S BRUNO.

I WAS BASICALLY HIS
INDENTURED SERVANT

FOR A YEAR IN NORMANDY.

YOU APPRENTICED IN FRANCE?

THAT'S MY DREAM!

WELL, I'D BE HAPPY TO
GIVE YOU A RECOMMENDATION.

HE WAS BRUTAL WITH ME,
BUT I'M SURE HE'D LOVE YOU.

YEAH, RIGHT.
AN AMERICAN GIRL WHO'S DEAF?

HEY, JUST BECAUSE
I WAS AN IDIOT

DOESN'T MEAN
EVERYBODY WILL BE.

EXCEPT YOUR HANDS

ARE WAY TOO PRETTY.

WHAT'S WRONG
WITH MY HANDS?

YOU WORK IN A KITCHEN.
YOUR HANDS ARE YOUR RESUME.

HERE, LOOK AT THIS.

SEE THIS?
THIS IS WHERE

THE KNIFE HANDLE HITS.

IT TOOK ME YEARS
TO GET THIS.

AND THAT GUY

IS FROM A TRAY
OF HOT BEEF BONES

WHEN SOMEBODY
RAN INTO ME.

I GOT THIS
CUTTING TOMATOES.

OH. WELL, THAT'S
A GOOD START.

( chuckles )

AND WHAT ABOUT THESE?

FROM BASKETBALL.

NOT REALLY KITCHEN-RELATED.

HMM.

WHERE'S YOUR BATHROOM?

- UH, IT'S UP THE STAIRS.
- OKAY, GREAT. YEAH.

( groans )

YOU ALL RIGHT?

- ( vomiting )
- UGH.

BAD GRASSHOPPERS.
I'M JUST GONNA GET YOU SOME--

YOU CAN'T HEAR ME.

( doorbell rings )

HI.

SORRY. UH, UH--

SUNGLASSES.

OH, GOD.
I WAS SUPPOSED TO
PUT THEM IN THE MAILBOX.

I'M SORRY. C-COME IN.
I'LL SEE IF THEY'RE UPSTAIRS.

( vomiting )

SHE CAN'T HEAR THAT.

( cellphone beeping )

DON'T TAKE THIS
THE WRONG WAY,

BUT YOU LOOK
THE WAY I FEEL

ABOUT THIS WHOLE
TRIAL THING.

OH, GOD.

THAT STARTS TOMORROW,
DOESN'T IT?

ARE YOU OKAY?
WHAT'S GOING ON?

( sighs )

I ALMOST

SLEPT WITH CHEF JEFF
LAST NIGHT.

I'M SORRY.
THE GUY THAT MELODY
WAS SLEEPING WITH?

- YOU ALMOST--
- NEVER MIND.

NO, I'M SORRY.
I DON'T MEAN TO
SOUND ALL JUDGE-Y.

WHAT HAPPENED?

NOTHING.

WELL, WE ATE THESE
FRIED GRASSHOPPERS--

- AND--
- ( laughing )

OKAY, NOW YOU'RE
MAKING STUFF UP.

WOW, YOU DID HAVE
A WEIRD NIGHT.

ANYWAY,

WE DIDN'T--

YOU KNOW, BECAUSE

I THREW UP.

- OH MY GOD.
- YEAH.

SO EMBARRASSING.

HEY, I'M SURE
HE UNDERSTANDS.

YOU WERE NERVOUS.

EVERYBODY IS
ON THEIR FIRST TIME.

IT WASN'T MY FIRST TIME.

REALLY?!

WHY ARE YOU SO SHOCKED?

YOU THINK YOU'RE
THE ONLY PERSON
WHO'S HAD SEX?

( chuckles )

UH... ACTUALLY,

I, UH, HAVEN'T.

YOU AND EMMETT--

- NEVER?
- NEVER.

WOW.

WOW.

- WOW!
- OKAY.

THAT WAS ONE MORE
WOW THAN YOU NEEDED.

NO! I'M SORRY.

I JUST THOUGHT
THAT YOU--

YEAH, I KNOW.

I DON'T EXACTLY GIVE OFF
THE VIRGINAL VIBE.

DO YOU THINK I RUINED
EVERYTHING WITH JEFF?

WELL, AS YOU KNOW,

I'M NOT EXACTLY AN EXPERT
ON THESE THINGS.

BUT NO, I DON'T THINK
THAT YOU RUINED EVERYTHING.

IT REALLY SHOULDN'T BE
THAT PAINFUL.

MY OPENING WILL BE SHORT
AND TO THE POINT.

JUST A QUICK QUESTION.

SHOULDN'T ANGELO BE HERE
FOR THIS?

Conrad: ANGELO'S RETURNING
FROM HIS JOB UPSTATE.

HE ASSURES ME HE'LL
BE PRESENT TOMORROW.

NO. HE'S BACK.
I JUST SAW HIM THIS MORNING.

OH. OH. RIGHT.

ANYWAY, AFTER OPENING,

I'LL BE CALLING COLLEEN
TO THE STAND.

SO WE'RE GOING WITH
THE CONSPIRACY THEORIST.

SHE'S A LACTATION CONSULTANT
WITH COMPELLING FIRST-HAND
TESTIMONY.

IF SHE HOLDS UP.

NOW, THE GIRLS WILL
BE FRONT AND CENTER, RIGHT?

WELL, WE DON'T WANT THEM
TO MISS TOO MUCH SCHOOL.

THEY WON'T HAVE
TO BE THERE EVERY DAY.

WHEN THEY DO SHOW UP,
THEY SHOULD OBVIOUSLY
BE WELL-DRESSED.

AND TELL 'EM
NOT TO HOLD BACK
ON THE WATERWORKS.

NOT TO BE CRASS.

TOO LATE.

( school bell ringing )

SO I'M THINKING, HALLOWEEN ONLY
COMES ONCE A YEAR, RIGHT?

AND EVERYBODY THROWS IN
50 BUCKS, MAYBE EVEN 100 BUCKS,

WE COULD THROW SOMETHING
AMAZING WITH A GREAT BAND,

SMOKE MACHINES.
IT'LL BE-- HEY!

GABY, I'M LOOKING FOR
SOMEBODY TO CO-HOST

A RAGER THAT I'M
THINKING ABOUT THROWING.

JUST-- I NEED--

JUST LET ME KNOW!

( vacuum stops whirring )

ELI! HEY!
YOU CAN BE FIRST
ON THE INVITATION

LIST IF YOU JUST--

HEY.

I HEARD THAT YOU'RE
COLLECTING MONEY

FOR A HALLOWEEN PARTY
AND I WAS JUST WONDERING

HOW MUCH YOU NEED.

IT'S FINE.

OKAY, THIS IS NOT ME

TRYING TO WRANGLE
AN INVITATION FROM YOU.

IT'S JUST...
YOU HATE HALLOWEEN

AND YOU'RE NOT
A BIG FAN OF PARTIES,

SO WHATEVER IT IS,
I'D LIKE TO HELP.

YOU WANNA HELP ME.

IT'S THE LEAST
I CAN DO.

I'LL FIGURE IT OUT.

OKAY. WELL, IF YOU
CHANGE YOUR MIND,

I'VE GOT MY CHECKBOOK
ON ME.

( cellphone beeps )

SIMONE, WAIT.

SO, THIS IS WHERE
THE MAGIC HAPPENS.

OH. HEY.

SORRY FOR THE AMBUSH.
I, UM...

COULDN'T SLEEP
LAST NIGHT, SO I--

I ACTUALLY WROTE A COUPLE
SONGS AND THOUGHT

WE COULD PLAY
THROUGH THEM NEXT TIME.

- WOW.
- NO PRESSURE.

I MEAN, WE COULD
JUST JAM TOO.

- TOBY...
- OR KEEP PLAYING
YOUR STUFF. WHATEVER.

...I CAN'T PLAY
WITH YOU ANYMORE.

WHAT? I THOUGHT
WE SOUNDED GOOD.

WE DID.

IT'S JUST, UM,

I'M NOT SURE THAT THIS
IS THE RIGHT DIRECTION

FOR EITHER ONE OF US.

WELL, WE COULD TRY
A DIFFERENT SOUND.

IT'S NOT ABOUT
THE MUSIC.

MY BOYFRIEND SAW
THAT PHOTO I POSTED

AND HE'S NOT COMFORTABLE
WITH ME PLAYING WITH YOU GUYS.

AND I WANT
TO RESPECT THAT.

I'M SORRY.

OKAY. UH...

I GUESS THAT'S THAT.

OH.

OKAY. I PROMISE
THAT'S ALL OF IT.

OKAY?

HE'S HERE.

( lock beeping )

HURRY UP. OH!

CRAP!

- AH!
- HEY! HA HA! THERE YOU ARE!

- YEAH, HERE I AM.
- UM, I ACTUALLY HAD
A QUESTION FOR YOU.

A-ABOUT THE TRIAL.

GREAT, LET'S TALK
ABOUT THE TRIAL.

- UH--
- YEAH, HERE WE GO.

OKAY, UH-- WELL,
THIS IS PROBABLY
A QUESTION FOR MOM,

BUT SHE'S JUST
GONNA OBSESS OVER IT.

I WAS WONDERING,
SHOULD I WEAR MY

BUCKNER UNIFORM
TO THE TRIAL, OR JUST

LIKE A NICE SKIRT
AND BLOUSE?

I THINK A SKIRT
AND BLOUSE.

THAT WAY THE JUDGE
WON'T HOLD IT AGAINST US

THAT WE'RE LETTING YOU
SKIP SCHOOL.

COOL. THAT'S WHAT
I THOUGHT.

SWEETIE?

THANK YOU SO MUCH
FOR BEING

SUCH A GOOD SPORT
ABOUT ALL THIS.

IT'S THE LEAST
I COULD DO.

SO WAS THERE
ANY MONEY MISSING?

NO, MONEY'S ALL THERE.
BUT THERE USED TO BE
ALL THESE HUNDREDS,

AND NOW IT'S MOSTLY
TWENTIES.

WHAT DO YOU THINK
HAPPENED?

I THINK ONE OF
MY EMPLOYEES IS USING

MY CASH DRAWER
AS AN ATM,

AND I GOT A BAD
FEELING I KNOW WHO.

OH. HONEY--

THERE ARE THREE
MEN'S ROOMS

FOR EVERY LADIES' ROOM
HERE.

IT'S LIKE THEY DON'T
THINK WOMEN GO TO COURT.

( all chuckle )

UM, TRAVIS,
IS HE OKAY?

DOES HE HAVE ANY
MONEY PROBLEMS?

OR PROBLEMS AT HOME?

NO. AS FAR AS I KNOW,
EVERYTHING'S OKAY.

I'M GONNA HAVE
TO DEAL WITH THIS

SOONER THAN LATER.

WE BETTER GET
IN THERE, OKAY?

SURE.

- THANKS.
- SURE.

I CAN'T MAKE HER
BE IN A BAND WITH ME.

WELL. I MEAN, IF IT IS,

YOU AND I ARE
THE ONLY ONES THAT
ARE GETTING PUNISHED.

I KNOW. ME TOO.

DUDE, YOU WEREN'T THERE.

LIKE, IT'S NOT HAPPENING.

I KNOW.

WHAT DO YOU WANT ME
TO DO? LIKE...

CHALLENGE HIM
TO A DUEL OR SOMETHING?

EMMETT, IF I--

UH.

I THINK I GOT
SOME OF THAT.

YOU'RE WEIRDLY GOOD
AT THIS.

WELL, I WAS CONTRACTED
TO WORK EIGHT-HOUR SHIFTS,

BUT I WAS USUALLY THERE
12 HOURS A DAY OR MORE.

AND WERE YOU THE ONLY
ONE WHO WAS ASKED
TO WORK OVERTIME?

OH GOSH, NO.

THE NURSES IN THE NURSERY

COMPLAINED ALL THE TIME
ABOUT IT.

- ( whispers ) JOHN KNOWS.
- DID YOU STOP WORKING
AT K.C. CHILDREN'S...

- WHAT?
- ...BECAUSE YOU WERE ASKED TO?

- SHH.
- Colleen: QUITE THE OPPOSITE.

- Craig: YOU QUIT?
- Colleen: YES.

EVEN THOUGH I WAS OFFERED
A FULL-TIME POSITION WITH
BENEFITS.

Craig: SOUNDS LIKE
A PRETTY GOOD DEAL.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TAKE IT?

Colleen: I JUST DIDN'T
WANT TO WORK

UNDER THOSE CONDITIONS.

Craig: YOU MEAN
THE LONG HOURS?

Colleen: THE HOURS,
THE REDUNDANT BOOKKEEPING,

THE LOW MORALE.

THAT'S WHEN MISTAKES
ARE MADE.

AND I MEAN-- WELL,

OBVIOUSLY THAT'S WHY
WE'RE HERE, ISN'T IT?

OBJECTION.
MOVE TO STRIKE.

SUSTAINED.
THE JURY WILL DISREGARD

THE WITNESS' LAST SENTENCE.

THERE ARE NO FURTHER
QUESTIONS, YOUR HONOR.

YOU KNOW,
SOMEBODY WHO IS

SLEEPING WITH HER
85-YEAR-OLD BOSS

PROBABLY SHOULDN'T
BE THROWING STONES.

EITHER YOU TELL JOHN
OR I WILL.

THE COURT WILL TAKE
A BRIEF RECESS

BEFORE CONTINUING
CROSS-EXAMINATION.

WHY DIDN'T YOU
COME TO US FOR HELP?

BECAUSE I KNEW WHAT
YOU'D SAY.

THIS IS WAY BEYOND
ANYTHING YOU'VE EVER DONE!

YOU COULD GO TO
JUVENILE DETENTION FOR THIS.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

MOM, MY FRIEND WAS IN JAIL.

- ( exhales )
- I WAS WORRIED ABOUT HER.

SHE DIDN'T HAVE
ANYBODY ELSE TO CALL.

DO YOU EVEN KNOW IF
THIS GIRL IS WHO
SHE SAYS SHE IS?

WHAT IF SHE TRICKED YOU
INTO GIVING HER $1,000

AND THEN RAN OFF
WITH IT?!

I WAS AT
THE POLICE STATION.

I SIGNED THE PAPERS.
IT WAS REAL.

BESIDES,
ZARRA ISN'T LIKE THAT.

REALLY?

YOU KNOW, FROM THE SECOND
YOU MET HER, YOU DIDN'T
LIKE HER.

- I COULD TELL.
- WHAT IS IT ABOUT THIS GIRL?

WHAT DO YOU SEE IN HER?
BECAUSE I JUST DON'T GET IT!

SHE WAS RAISED
BY A SINGLE MOM,

SHE GREW UP
IN EAST RIVERSIDE,

SHE'S PART-LATINA,
SHE'S AN ARTIST.

I ALWAYS THOUGHT
THAT DAPHNE IS WHO
I WOULD'VE BEEN IF

THE SWITCH HADN'T
HAPPENED, BUT

THAT'S NOT TRUE.

IT'S ZARRA.

SHE'S WHO I WOULD
HAVE BEEN.

WELL,
IF THAT'S TRUE,

I DON'T LIKE WHO
YOU WOULD'VE BEEN.

AND I REALLY DON'T LIKE
WHO YOU'RE BECOMING.

THEY USED WRIST BRACELETS
WITH THE BABY'S NAME

WRITTEN IN PEN.
SOMETIMES IT WAS ILLEGIBLE.

SOMETIMES THE INK SMUDGED.

Ed: THE SYSTEM
WASN'T COMPUTERIZED?

Colleen: OH, NOT YET.

THEY WERE IN THE PROCESS
OF DOING THAT BACK
IN THOSE DAYS.

MS. VANDERNOOT,
ARE YOU FAMILIAR
WITH A BLOG CALLED

"CHRONICLE OF THE BEAST"?

OBJECTION. RELEVANCE.

LAYING A FOUNDATION,
YOUR HONOR.

THIS GOES TO CREDIBILITY.

IT BETTER,
OR I'M CUTTING IT OFF.

OVERRULED.

MS. VANDERNOOT?

YES, I'VE HEARD
OF THAT BLOG.

IN FACT, YOU'VE WRITTEN
FOR IT, HAVEN'T YOU?

YES, FROM TIME TO TIME.

Ed: IT POSITS THAT ONE
OF THE SIGNS OF THE FINAL DAYS

BEFORE THE EARTH
IS DESTROYED

IS THE APPEARANCE
OF THE "MARK OF THE BEAST."

YES.

I'D LIKE TO CALL ATTENTION
TO K.C. CHILDREN'S EXHIBIT "A".

YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS,
DON'T YOU, MA'AM?

YES, IT'S...

THE KIND OF BRACELET
THEY PUT ON NEWBORNS

AT K.C. CHILDREN'S NOW.

AND ISN'T THIS THE REASON
WHY YOU QUIT WORKING
AT K.C. CHILDREN'S?

- NO.
- BECAUSE THE NEW COMPUTERIZED
SYSTEM USED BARCODES.

- NO!
- DOESN'T "CHRONICLE
OF THE BEAST" WARN

THAT BARCODES CAN
BE USED AS A MARK
OF THE ANTICHRIST?

- NOT ALL BARCODES.
- ONLY THE KIND

THAT ARE USED
TO IDENTIFY PEOPLE.

THOSE NEWBORNS WERE BEING
MARKED LIKE CATTLE.

THOSE BABIES WERE...

INNOCENT.

SO THE EVIL HOSPITAL
IS IN CAHOOTS WITH
THE BEAST,

CLAIMING NEWBORNS
AS HIS OWN.

- OBJECTION!
- THAT'S ENOUGH, COUNSEL.

THAT HOSPITAL WAS EVIL!

LOOK HOW IT SWITCHED
THOSE-- THOSE GIRLS!

THOSE TIFFANYS!

AND WHAT IT DID
TO THEIR MOTHERS.

NO FURTHER QUESTIONS,
YOUR HONOR.

Judge: THANK YOU,
MS. VANDERNOOT.

THE WITNESS MAY STEP DOWN.

HEY.

YOU WANT SOME PUDDING?

I'M JUST GETTING
SOME WATER.

DON'T LEAVE A MESS.

DID YOU TELL DAD?

( sighs )
I DECIDED TO WAIT.

WITH EVERYTHING GOING ON,
THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH

HEARTBREAK A PERSON
CAN TAKE IN ONE DAY.

FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH,
I'M SORRY.

ALL RIGHT, HERE'S
WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN.

I'LL MAKE SURE YOUR DAD
DOESN'T FIRE TRAVIS,

I'LL GIVE YOU ENOUGH
TO PAY BACK

ALL THE MONEY
YOU BORROWED,

AND THEN YOU'RE
GONNA WORK IT OFF.

- EVERY CENT.
- ( quietly ) OKAY.

AND WHEN THIS TRIAL IS OVER,
WE'LL DISCUSS WHAT FURTHER
ACTIONS NEED TO BE TAKEN.

- MOM--
- I DON'T WANNA HEAR ABOUT IT.

HEY THERE.

I JUST GOT A HUGE ORDER
OF LOCUSTS.

I WAS HOPING YOU COULD
PREP THOSE FOR ME.

TOO SOON?

DO YOU HAVE A MINUTE?

YEAH.

WHAT'S UP?

MELODY TALKED TO ME
ABOUT US.

I DON'T KNOW HOW
SHE KNEW, BUT--

UH, RIGHT. I WASN'T
GONNA MENTION THIS,

BUT SHE SORT OF STOPPED BY
MY PLACE THE OTHER NIGHT

WHILE YOU WERE THERE.

WHEN?

IT WAS WHILE
YOU WERE... SICK.

SHE WAS LOOKING
FOR HER SUNGLASSES,
BUT I DON'T KNOW,

SHE MIGHT HAVE
SEEN SOMETHING.

I'M AFRAID SHE'S GONNA
TELL MY MOM.

OH.

I CAN HANDLE MY MOM.

HOLD ON.

WE BOTH

KNOW WHAT WE'RE DOING
ISN'T THAT SMART.

NO, I MEAN IT.

MELODY'S JUST JEALOUS.
MY MOM WON'T EVEN CARE.

LOOK, WHEN I'M WITH YOU,

I HAVE FUN AND I DON'T
EVEN THINK ABOUT

HOW OLD YOU ARE,
BUT WHEN I'M NOT...

I WONDER WHAT
WE'RE DOING.

MAYBE WE SHOULD
BE TOGETHER MORE THEN.

JEFF.

THIS ISN'T EASY
FOR ME EITHER.

BUT I'M TRYING TO DO
THE RIGHT THING HERE.

PLEASE HELP ME.

OKAY.

WELL, IT COULD
HAVE BEEN WORSE.

SHE COULD HAVE DRAGGED
THE FBI INTO IT.

WHAT?

THAT LOON VANDERNOOT.

PUT A CALL IN
TO CRAIG, BY THE WAY.

WONDERING IF WE SHOULD
BE EXPECTING A LOWBALL
SETTLEMENT OFFER

NOW THAT OUR CASE
HAS FALLEN APART.

HAVEN'T HEARD BACK
FROM HIM YET.

- I'M SORRY, HONEY.
- MM.

ME TOO.

SORRY IT TURNED OUT
LIKE THIS.

BUT NOT SORRY
WE STUCK TO OUR GUNS.

FOR ALL THE GOOD
IT DID US.

( moans )

- ( imitates moan )
- ( chuckles )

( doorbell ringing )

( Kathryn chuckles )

- CRAIG?
- GREAT. YOU'RE BOTH HERE.

WHAT'S UP?

REMEMBER WHEN COLLEEN
MENTIONED THE "TIFFANYS"?

- YEAH.
- AND HOW THE HOSPITAL'S
LAWYER FLINCHED WHEN SHE DID?

- NO.
- WELL, I HAD MY INVESTIGATOR

DO SOME DIGGING INTO
THE RECORDS

THE HOSPITAL TURNED
OVER IN DISCOVERY.

THREE MONTHS BEFORE
YOUR DAUGHTERS WERE SWITCHED,

TWO OTHER GIRLS,
BOTH NAMED TIFFANY,

WERE BORN ON THE SAME DAY
AT THAT HOSPITAL.

WE TRACKED DOWN THE PARENTS
AND COLLEEN WAS RIGHT.

THE TIFFANYS WERE SWITCHED!

I CONTACTED
ONE OF THE MOTHERS

AND SHE'S WILLING
TO TESTIFY.

WE GOT 'EM BY THE BALLS!

JOHN, KATHRYN.
THIS IS LINDA CALGROVE.

THE OTHER MOTHER
WHOSE BABY WAS SWITCHED.

- HI.
- HI. SO NICE TO MEET YOU.

I'M SO SORRY
ABOUT ALL THIS.

LINDA, THANK YOU SO MUCH
FOR TESTIFYING.

WE'RE SO GLAD
THAT CRAIG FOUND YOU.

WE SHOULD GET IN THERE.
WE'LL BE STARTING SOON.

- GREAT.
- UM, WAIT. COULD I JUST
HAVE A MOMENT TO TALK?

- YEAH, OF COURSE.
- THANKS.

I HAD NO IDEA
IT HAPPENED AGAIN.

I'M JUST SO SORRY.

IT'S OKAY.

I JUST WANTED TO ASK
YOU A QUESTION.

I HOPE IT'S NOT
TOO PERSONAL, BUT...

HOW DID YOU KNOW?

SOMETHING SEEMED OFF.

IT'S THE ONLY WAY
I CAN EXPLAIN IT.

DID ANYONE BELIEVE YOU?

NO.

BUT I KEPT INSISTING.

HOW LONG WAS IT
BEFORE THE GIRLS
WERE SWITCHED BACK?

NINE DAYS.

FOR NINE DAYS
WE HAD SOMEBODY ELSE'S BABY.

AND SOMEBODY ELSE
HAD MINE.

NINE DAYS...

ALL WITH THE WRONG CHILD.

AND DID YOU EVER
SEE HER AGAIN?

THE OTHER TIFFANY?

NO. OF COURSE NOT.

SHE WASN'T OURS.

LADIES.

THANK YOU.

NIKKI.

TOBY.

I'M SORRY.
I KNOW YOU'RE BUSY.

I, UH--

THIS WON'T TAKE
VERY LONG.

I DON'T KNOW
ABOUT YOU, BUT

I CAN'T JUST PICK UP
A GUITAR

AND PLAY MUSIC
WITH ANYBODY.

ME NEITHER.

AND THIS MAY BE
NONE OF MY BUSINESS,

BUT I DON'T THINK
YOUR BOYFRIEND SHOULD

BE ABLE TO TELL YOU
WHO YOU CAN AND CAN'T

PLAY MUSIC WITH.

I MEAN, HE EITHER TRUSTS YOU
OR HE DOESN'T.

I'VE BEEN CHEATED ON
BEFORE,

SO I KNOW WHAT THAT
FEELS LIKE.

AND I WOULD NEVER
DO THAT TO ANYBODY.

I THINK THIS BAND
COULD BE REALLY GREAT.

BUT WE'LL NEVER KNOW
IF WE DON'T GIVE IT A SHOT.

I THINK WE SHOULD.

SO THAT'S ALL
I CAME TO SAY.

TOBY.

WHAT TIME IS REHEARSAL?

( chuckles )

AWESOME SAUCE.

( laughs )

Angelo: I LEFT CHICAGO

AND CAME BACK TO KANSAS CITY
FOR THE FIRST TIME

IN 13 YEARS.

I FOUND BAY AND DAPHNE.
I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.

THEY TURNED INTO SUCH
BEAUTIFUL YOUNG WOMEN.

Conrad: DO YOU HAVE
ANY OTHER CHILDREN?

NO.

I WANTED TO BE A FATHER.

BUT NOT WITHOUT
THE WOMAN THAT I LOVED.

I WANTED A FAMILY.

AND YOU HAD THAT
WITH MS. VASQUEZ?

BAY'S BIOLOGICAL MOTHER.

I THOUGHT I DID.

COULDN'T YOU HAVE STAYED
WITH MS. VASQUEZ?

BEEN A FATHER TO DAPHNE?

REGINA WAS THE LOVE
OF MY LIFE.

BUT AFTER DAPHNE'S
DNA TEST CAME BACK,

ALL I SAW WAS THE PROOF
THAT REGINA HAD BETRAYED ME.

AND I WAS NOT

A BIG ENOUGH MAN BACK THEN
TO FORGIVE HER.

OR TO LOVE DAPHNE
THE WAY I SHOULD HAVE.

NOW THAT YOU'VE BEEN
REUNITED WITH REGINA

AND THE DAUGHTER
YOU NEVER KNEW,

DO YOU FEEL WHOLE?

HOW CAN I?

I CAN NEVER GET BACK
THOSE YEARS I LOST WITH THEM.

I'M A STRANGER
TO BAY AND DAPHNE.

EVEN REGINA.

I SHOULD NEVER HAVE DOUBTED
THE WOMAN THAT I LOVED.

AND I WILL REGRET THAT
FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.

BUT I SHOULD NEVER
HAVE BEEN PUT IN A POSITION

TO DOUBT HER.

THE HOSPITAL DID THAT.

DAPHNE.

I KNOW YOU WANT
TO BE SMART,

AND I DO TOO.

BUT--

BUT I DON'T ALWAYS
WANT TO WONDER

IF WE MISSED OUT
ON SOMETHING REALLY GOOD

BECAUSE WE WERE
TOO SCARED.

( school bell rings )

HEY.

HI.

I'M GIVING YOU
YOUR MONEY BACK.
THAT'S ALL OF IT.

YOU DON'T NEED
TO DO THAT.

I MEAN, I WANT YOU
TO KEEP IT.

I DON'T NEED IT
ANYMORE.

OKAY, CAN YOU JUST
GIVE IT TO CHARITY
OR SOMETHING?

I MEAN, I KNOW IT
DOESN'T MAKE UP
FOR ANYTHING,

BUT I WOULD JUST FEEL
BETTER IF IT WAS OUT
THERE DOING SOME GOOD.

I DON'T WANT IT.
I DIDN'T WANT IT
IN THE FIRST PLACE.

THIS WASN'T ABOUT
FINDING A WAY
TO MAKE YOU

FEEL BETTER.

SO... WHAT HAPPENED?

IT DOESN'T MATTER NOW.

LOOK, BAY, I KNOW
IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME

SINCE WE'VE BEEN FRIENDS,
BUT WHATEVER IT IS,

I'M NO POSITION
TO JUDGE YOU.

I BORROWED IT FOR WHAT
I THOUGHT WAS A GOOD REASON

AND I ENDED UP STEALING
MONEY FROM MY PARENTS.

MY MOM WON'T EVEN
LOOK AT ME NOW.

I'VE BEEN THERE.

I CAN SAY THIS,

I LEARNED THAT IT SUCKS
BEING ON THE OTHER SIDE

OF THE "BEGGING FOR
FORGIVENESS" EQUATION.

MR. TEBBE,
MR. CHAPLIN,

YOU MAY CALL
YOUR NEXT WITNESS.

THE PLAINTIFFS REST,
YOUR HONOR.

VERY WELL, THEN.
MR. CALSTON.

- ARE YOU READY
TO PUT ON YOUR CASE?
- ONE THING, YOUR HONOR.

WE SEEK LEAVE TO AMEND
OUR WITNESS LIST

TO INCLUDE
ONE MORE WITNESS.

KATHRYN KENNISH.

ME? WHY WOULD THEY
WANT ME TO TESTIFY FOR THEM?

I DON'T KNOW.

ANY OBJECTION, MR. TEBBE?

NO, YOUR HONOR.

VERY WELL THEN.
GIVEN THAT IT'S
FRIDAY AFTERNOON,

THIS COURT STANDS ADJOURNED
TILL 9:00 A.M. MONDAY.

ALL RIGHT, CRAIG.
WELL, THANK YOU.

YEAH.
WE'LL BE IN TOUCH.

IS IT THE BOOK?

WHAT DO THEY WANT
FROM ME?

HONEY, HE DOESN'T KNOW.
AND HE PROMISED ME

THAT HE'D GET IN TOUCH
WITH US IF HE FINDS
OUT ANYTHING.

YOU'RE GONNA BE FINE.

( door closes )

BAY.

COME IN HERE
FOR A SECOND, PLEASE.

HONEY--

HEY.

IS THERE SOMETHING
YOU'D LIKE TO TELL ME?

I'M GUESSING MOM
ALREADY TOLD YOU.

YEAH.

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA

WHAT THIS FAMILY
IS DEALING WITH RIGHT NOW?

DAD, I RETURNED IT.

WHAT AM I GONNA DO
WITH YOU, BAY?

IS BOARDING SCHOOL
THE ANSWER?

'CAUSE I REALLY
DON'T KNOW.

YOU REALLY WANT TO
SHIP ME OFF LIKE WILKE?

BECAUSE I DON'T UNDERSTAND
HOW A CHILD THAT I RAISED

THINKS IT'S OKAY
TO STEAL FROM ME.

WAIT A SECOND.
I KNOW WHAT I DID
WAS WRONG,

BUT TOBY OWED
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS
IN GAMBLING DEBT,

AND HE STOLE A TEST
FROM SCHOOL, BUT I GUESS...

- BAY.
- ...THAT'S FINE, RIGHT?
'CAUSE HE'S NOT

JUST SOME KID
THAT YOU RAISED.

HE'S YOUR
FLESH AND BLOOD.

DON'T PULL THAT!

THAT IS RIDICULOUS!

THIS IS ABOUT
WHAT YOU DID.

OKAY?

AND THEN YOU DRAG
THAT KID TRAVIS INTO THIS?

THAT POOR KID?
FOR THAT GIRL?!

DON'T CALL HER THAT.

CAN'T YOU GUYS EVEN
GIVE ME

- THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT?
- NO, WE CAN'T.

WE HAVE BEEN CUTTING
YOU SLACK.

WE HAVE BEEN MAKING EXCUSES
FOR YOUR BAD BEHAVIOR

EVER SINCE WE FOUND OUT
ABOUT THE SWITCH.

IT HAS BEEN ONE THING
AFTER ANOTHER.

AND WE'RE DONE.

YOU GOT IT, BAY?

WE'RE DONE.

YEAH. I GOT IT.
