Bay: Previously on Switched at Birth...
- I would never try to replace your mom. - She's still alive.
- Is that your son? - He's with my son-of-a-bitch ex-husband,
wherever he is.
- I'm Daphne. - Vimla.
Josh, here's the deal... I need an interpreter.
I can't believe there's even one of you in existence.
Fine.
- Sorry I'm late. - No worries.
It was worth the wait.
I went to get tested.
I'm sorry. I don't know what you're talking about.
The baby has Down syndrome.
For $600, 12 more people could learn to sign?
Uh-oh. I know that look.
I could totally raise $600.
I can't wait to tell Quinn!
You're still talking with that guy?
There's nothing going on.
Mingo: He kissed you.
It's weird that you're arranging this whole fundraiser with him
and I didn't know about it.
I met a guy.
Bay: His name is Garrett?
- Garrett Banducci? - Yeah.
- That guy's a player. - I can roll with that.

What do you think?
_
Thank you.
_
It's supposed to be about how we are many things at once
or that words don't define us.
_
In a few days, they're going over
to the Waite Gallery for my show.
"My show."
I have been dreaming about saying that for years.
I'm trying to do
a few more before the actual event.
I was thinking, um...
Maybe I could sketch you some time.
_
Actually, I do it off of a photo.
So, what are some words
you would use to describe yourself?
_
Okay, okay. Um...
just time out.
My mom or Eric could pop in at any moment.
_
Yeah. Oh! I could bring that found art
documentary I was telling you about.
_
(Sighs)
I'm gonna go get a soda.
Do you want anything?
- Huh? - Is that my phone?
Oh. Yeah. Mine's completely out of juice.
I'm, like, addicted to Clash of Clans.
- Can I have it back? - Yeah.
I need to text Vimla
about our presentation. It's a third of our grade.
What class?
Biology seminar. I'll be right back.

But if we find out, then we can buy stuff
and start making the nursery.
Oh, you want to start gender stereotyping
while the baby is still a fetus?
I'm not gonna go out and
buy dolls or trucks.
I just mean prepare ourselves.
Yeah, well, I have a lot going on right now
without adding a whole other layer of...
I just don't want to know, okay?
Okay.
We have a doctor's appointment this week, right?
I've moved it.
Melody is away at a conference,
and I have loads of work to finish
before the end of the school term,
and before I tell her that I'm actually
quitting my job and moving back to London!
- Hey, hey, hey. - (Breathing heavily)
Everything is gonna work out.
I'll see you tonight.
_
The fact that this guy even likes my stuff
is beyond crazy.
I sent out 50 e-mails, and I finally got a hit
from the coolest gallery in the Crossroads.
That's so awesome.
_
- You really do. - Thank you.
So, how's it going with Mr. Banducci?
Mm. It's good. We actually have a date tonight.
I'm going to his place.
That'll be the first time since you and Emmett
- and since... - The whole Tank thing.
_
Yeah!
Well, I guess I'm just...
Used to being in a relationship.
You know, I've never really
done the straight up "hook up" thing before,
and... (Sighs) I don't know.
I thought that we might have
more of a connection by now.
_
You just met him. Give him a chance.
And plus, casual doesn't always stay casual.
Mingo and I started the same way.
Look at us now.
True.
So what are you up to today?
I told John I'd give him a hand at the car wash.
He's got some painting, a busted window, other stuff.
He was gonna hire somebody...
But you offered to do it.
It's easy stuff, and a few cosmetic patches may help the place sell.
That would be really great for them.
I thought it would have been sold by now.
Yeah, they seem to be holding up okay.
I mean, I didn't want to ask.
- Well, I've been broke a lot. - Me, too.
But for folks like them who are used to having everything,
you know, it can't be easy.
That's really nice of you.
They're my family now, too, right?
"So while there is no human pheromone per se,
biologists agree that a person's odorprint
plays a big role in sexual attraction."
I still think we should start with the discovery of bombykol.
It's the first pheromone identified in nature.
- It's history. - But we only have 15 minutes.
We have to focus on what's relevant to humans.
- (Sighs) - (Phone vibrates)
_
That's rude. It's like whispering.
I'm communicating with my client.
Well, if it's about the assignment, say it out loud.
- Actually, it's not. - I'm allowed to have a personal conversation.
We have work to do, in case you haven't noticed.
Can you two stop bickering, please?
I'm out of here.
Wait... what?
- Where are you going? - Don't worry, okay?
I'll be there for the actual presentation.
Josh!
What is going on between you two?
You guys have been at each other's throats all day.
We're having problems... obviously.
Has he said anything to you?
No.
He has been moodier than usual.
So it's not me...
I don't know.
But we have to focus.
Can you guys keep the peace until after the presentation?
- It's just two more days. - I'm not the problem.
Maybe you can talk to him.
Find out what's going on.
I don't want to get in the middle.
You want all our study sessions to end like this?
All right.
I'll see what I can do.
Josh: Of course she's blaming me.
She's not blaming you.
I don't know why she brought you into this.
Because your fighting is affecting our work
and you're both my friends.
Is there something going on with you?
It's stupid.
What?
I'm having feelings for someone else.
Oh.
Nothing's happened and I'm sure that nothing will.
So telling Vimla will just make her feel bad.
Do I...
Can you say who it is?
I don't want to talk about it.
Okay? It's hopeless.
Hey, hey! Party people!
I thought you guys were supposed to be working.
- What's up, man? - I was just leaving.
Wait, no. Can you give us a second?
It's okay.
I'll see you later, all right? I'll see ya, Mingo.
What was that about?
He and Vimla just had a fight.
Oh.
He told me he has feelings for somebody else.
Who? You?
Very funny.
I asked him who, but he got evasive,
which is weird because we talk about everything.
What? Why are you staring at me like that?
I think it is you.
That's ridiculous.
No, he's always asking me how serious we are,
and if we plan on moving in together, stuff like that.
He's my interpreter. He can't like me.
I'll have to fire him or he'll have to quit.
This is a disaster.
What am I gonna tell Vimla?
- Hey. - Hey.
- Barley Pop? - My man.
You patched up the broken tile on the bathroom floor.
- You didn't have to do that. - It wasn't a problem.
Any more offers?
Nothing to speak of.
You know, I bought some time.
Cashed in some bonds that were coming due.
Well, things are looking up.
Can't sit in the cash though.
You know, smart thing would be to...
Roll what I don't need right away into something new, you know?
Not a problem I'm familiar with.
Well...
Let's just say everybody wants too much up front.
Real estate is a total gamble, so...
You know, one of my regulars
at the coffeehouse mentioned something.
A place that's up and running.
Established.
So, what's the catch?
It's a...
Gentlemen's club.
The Brandy Rose.
Is that the strip club
with all those billboards around town?
- Yeah. - Oh!
Hey, it's packed at all hours, and men always gonna wanna
- drink and look at pretty women. - Yeah, they are.
Hey, look, I'm just putting it out there.
Do with it what you will.
I appreciate it.
It sounds like a great opportunity for somebody,
just not me.
I hear you.
Being an ex-Republican state senator and all...
- Right. Of course. - (Chuckles)
Look, give me about 10 more minutes here and I'm done.
Hey, no rush.
Thank you very much, by the way.
Vimla: He didn't say anything?
He was evasive.
- Can we get back to this? - Evasive how?
What were his words exactly?
He said what you said. That you guys were fighting
and that he didn't want to get into it with me.
Okay, now you're being evasive.
Maybe you should talk to him.
Okay, I will.
Wait! Not right now.
We have work to do.
Daphne...
He...
Has feelings for someone else.
Oh, my god.
But he hasn't acted on them. They're just feelings.
Who is she?
I don't know. He didn't say.
Well, the only girl he talks to regularly
is his cousin and...
And you.
This happens a lot with interpreters and their clients.
They spend so much time together,
and their relationship is so intimate, but...
I had no idea and I never encouraged it.
- I swear. - I don't believe this!
You're as type "A" as I am.
I mean, if he wanted somebody different...
You should talk to Josh.
- I'm going to. - But not right now.
We have a presentation.
You're right. Thank you.
And please don't tell him I said anything.

(Door opens)
So, how's it going in the world of young and single?
You still hanging with that dock worker dude?
Uh... yeah.
What? Something happen?
I kind of bailed in the middle of our date last night.
How come?
Well, things were going in a certain direction.
And this would have been the first time since...
Yeah, but...
That's not it.
Okay, there are certain areas
where I am still very much J.V.
and Garrett is total varsity.
Actually, whatever the next level beyond varsity is, that's him.
- He's experienced. - Way more experienced.
He gets tested for STDs, like, weekly.
And he had a Costco sized container of... props.
I don't know. I got freaked out.
Well, at least he's responsible.
That's true.
- And communicative. - That's also true.
Look, do what feels right.
You know, if you're not ready, you're not ready.
It's cool.
Let's end this super awkward conversation now.
Done.
So now, Josh is avoiding me,
Vimla is pissed off at me,
and the project still isn't finished.
- When's the presentation? - Tomorrow... or never,
- if Josh and Vimla aren't talking to each other. -(Phone vibrates)
- Or me. - (Vibrating continues)
_
- Was that Josh? - No. Uh... Bay.
Right.
I'm gonna fail another class.
Let me help. Josh is coming over for an ASL lesson later.
Are you sure? He's gone A.W.O.L.
Well, he didn't cancel. I'll talk to him man-to-man.
And say what?
"Back off"?
He knows we're together.
I'll give him a reality check. I'll say,
"hey, man, what are you thinking?"
And he'll say, "yeah, you're right."
It's that simple?
Trust me, guys don't need a lot of words to make a point.
I don't think you and Josh speak the same dude dialect.
Close enough. We're buds,
he teaches me ASL three times a week,
I know how to talk to him.
A strip club?
Have you lost your mind?
It's a gentlemen's club.
Call it what you want, it's still degrading.
I talked to the guy.
One of his investors cashed out and retired.
Now he needs a new silent partner.
Our names will be nowhere near the business.
I had Marty check it out. He was impressed.
I think it's a solid deal.
That is not the point.
Those places exploit women's sexuality.
Says the best-selling author of erotica.
Wait...
My erotica is not pornography.
It's tasteful
and literary.
- There is a spectrum. - Just like with these clubs.
You're thinking about all those seedy joints out by the airport.
Oh, and this place is the Taj Mahal?
It's suit and tie, they have a great wine list...
You know what? Why don't we go check it out together?
You want me to go to a strip club?
Why not?
If it's as bad as you think it is,
we're done.
If it's not,
will you at least consider it with an open mind?
I'll try.
- Hey there. - Oh, Regina. Hi.
Melody is out for a few days at a conference.
I know. I came by to see you.
Bring you some mommy tea and some croissants.
I drank it when I was pregnant. Put me right to sleep...
Until I had to get up to pee nine times.
I mean, nothing is really gonna help with that.
Well, thank you.
I was overdue for a mom-to-mom visit,
and I just wanted to check in, see how you're doing.
Fine, yeah. All fine.
Yeah?
Are you all right? Is it pain?
No, no, it's more of a... tightening.
It's been coming and going all day.
Those are contractions.
- Contrac... oh! Oh! Oh! - Okay, let's sit down.
No, wait. Stand up.
I can't remember. Um...
Why don't we just get you to your doctor, huh?
It's gonna be fine.
Come on.
Hey.
_
I'm sorry about the other night.
_
You get what?
_
I don't know what you're talking about.
_
Um, I really should get back to work.
- Here you go. - Thank you.
It's probably just Braxton-Hicks.
Yeah.
Lily: Your daughter is adorable.
- How old is she? - Six.
Wow.
That's young to be reading such a big book, isn't it?
Yeah. She was reading at four and never stopped.
I keep having to buy more and more books
because she just goes through them.
My oldest is the athlete.
She walked at nine months, ran at 11.
She's gonna be our Mia Hamm.
My husband is thrilled to have a sporty kid, let me tell you.
They go snowboarding, rock climbing.
His little best friend.
- Your first? - Yeah.
You'll see.
It's so exciting watching them conquer the world.
Then you blink and they'll be off to college, right?
Nurse: Lily Summers?
She's right here.
Lily. You're...
There you go.
Bye.
How dare you!
_
You told Garret about what happened with Tank!
_
So let him be confused or have him ask me.
It is not your place to decide when people
get to know my secrets.
What if I told someone you were dating
about your most private, horrible experience?
_
With your help I am sure he did.
_
Then stay out of my business, okay?
(Sultry music playing)
See? What did I tell ya?
Not seedy, not depressing...

Hello. Welcome to the Brandy Rose.
What can I get you beautiful people to drink?
I'll have a glass of Chardonnay.
We have a Napa Valley and a White Burgundy.
The Napa is more buttery,
like most California Chardonnays.
I prefer the Burgundy though.
It's got a nice minerality... nice and crisp.
- Sold. - And how 'bout you, handsome?
I'll have a scotch on the rocks, please.
You got it. Be right back.
Isn't she cute?
Isn't she a little young to be working here?
- Don't you think? - She looks 21 to me.
Young and cute.
That's good for business, right?
I mean, it is the skin trade we're talking about here.
All right, no need to be melodramatic.
Wow. Look at the mark up on these cocktails.
They must be printing money.
What percentage of this business would we own?
Hey, folks.
Wow, aren't you two a good-looking pair.
Oh, thank you.
I'm Georgia. Have you two been here before?
No. No, Georgia. This is our first time.
Oh, my goodness. I love newbies.
Okay, now, I don't know if you know,
but you haven't had the full Brandy Rose experience
until you've had a private dance.
And I don't mean to brag,
but I am the best...
That there is.
That's nice...
John, how about it?
You want a private dance with Georgia?
- You know... - Oh, I also do couples.
We have drinks on the way, but thank you.
- All right. - Kathryn: Oh, wait!
I am really interested in your work.
Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?
No, I don't mind. But I gotta keep moving.
If I don't dance, I don't get paid.
Ah... Well, how about if we talk while you dance?
A private dance?
- Kathryn... - No, absolutely.
- Come on. Follow me. - All right.
- I won't be long. - Yeah...

Hey.
Hey, stranger.
I have been studying at the Lambda house.
They have a neck masseuse!
How are you?
I've been better.
I know. Finals will be over soon.
It's not finals. It's your cousin Josh.
Mm. Yeah!
Here, chase it down.
So, what are we celebrating?
Well, I hear that liquor helps you loosen up
when you're trying to learn sign language, you know.
Hey, look at me, it's working!
Hey.
So I'm out a partner and an interpreter.
Did you know?
Did I know what?
Iris...
I'm not sure... (Sighs)
Look, I don't know if it's my place.
If you know something that could help me,
you have to tell me.
You know, maybe not this big,
but, like, same kind of style... tribal.
I was thinking, like, right here.
Yeah.
Like, even kind of, like, higher up, all the way on the delt.
Man, that would look killer.
Right, man. Yeah. You totally get it.
I haven't told Daphne yet.
I don't even know if she likes tattoos.
Yeah, I mean, but what if you guys break up?
Then it won't really matter what she thinks, right?
Yeah. Um...
It's interesting that you mention that. Um...
Look, man. I gotta be honest with you...
Are you sure?
Not even remotely.
It's just something my mom mentioned once,
that his parents wondered about.
But I have no idea. Honestly, I could be completely off.
Look, bro...
I have been there.
I know it's tough. Believe me, I do.
But... Daphne and I have been through a lot,
and we're in a really good place now, you know? And...
Whoa.
What was that?
Oh, crap. I...
I'm... I'm really drunk.
Mingo!
Josh isn't into me!
Yeah, I just got that.
- Josh! - I'm really sick.
Wait, no! Hang on. Hang on.
Why didn't you tell me?
How would that conversation had gone?
"Hey, I've got a thing for your boyfriend.
Do you mind sharing?"
- Even if I said yes, I don't think Mingo... - Yeah.
I know.
Like I said, it was stupid.
What about Vimla?
I mean, do...
Do you still like girls?
I don't know.
I'm still figuring it out.
I mean, Vimla and I are probably done,
but that's for a lot of reasons.
Okay.
Anyway, I know that straight guys are out of bounds.
I'm not judging.
You know, he surprised me.
I mean, he wasn't the meat-head I thought he was
and he thought I was cool.
I guess I let my imagination just...
Run away with me.
Look, I'm sorry I didn't show up for class today.
I know you guys have a presentation tomorrow.
I gotta get it together.
Yeah. Help me up?
Thank you.
Um...
Look, I don't know what's going on with you
and texting guy, but...
It was Mingo's idea to have ASL lessons
three days a week.
I don't know a lot of guys who would
go through that trouble and expense for someone they like.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
Contractions have stopped.
Braxton-Hicks, like you said.
That's not what I meant.
I know what that mom in the waiting room was saying
must have been hard to hear.
I've made my decision.
I'm not allowed to be upset.
Who says you're not allowed?
No one made me have this baby.
I know exactly what I'm getting myself into,
and I'd better get used to feeling how I felt
in that waiting room, because...
I'm going to feel like this for the rest of my life.
First of all...
I hate to break it to you, but that is not special
to Down syndrome parents.
Every parent feels jealous and insecure sometimes about their kid.
Every single one.
Just hearing how her daughter snowboards with her husband...
I want to give that to Toby.
I want to have that experience myself.
I want all those moments that parents get.
This has only just started...
And I'm starting to think I made a huge mistake.
- Please don't tell Toby that I've said that. - Listen to me.
It is completely normal to have doubts and be scared.
You're not a monster for feeling that way.
One thing that I know for sure...
Is that this is gonna be your kid.
Not your Down syndrome kid but your kid.
And you are gonna love him or her
with everything that you have,
once you two meet.
This has barely even begun, and I already feel like I'm failing.
No, sweetie.
You're not failing.
You're just being a mom.
And I think that you need to start being honest
with Toby about all this.
You need to stop holding it in.
Okay.
Yeah.
- First lap dance? - Yeah.
Just enjoy being entertained.
Have you always been a dancer?
I did ballet when I was a kid.
Oh. Yeah, me too.
Yeah, I still dance.
Mostly tap.
You know what? I'm thinking about investing in this place.
- Oh, yeah? - Yeah. Yeah.
- Do you like working here? - Yeah.
Money's great, hours are flexible,
and I can go to school in the daytime.
Oh. Wow.
You go to school.
- Yep. U.M.K.C. - Oh!
MBA and I'm almost done.
Wow!
What's next afterwards?
Well, I created a workout called "pas de pole."
It combines the moves of pole dancing
with the technique of ballet.
- It is such a great workout. - Oh, yeah? Can I see?
Okay.
Hip... turn...
♪ Got me burning ♪
♪ she's passing in her mini-dress ♪
♪ and she always knows what to say ♪
Okay, so you grand pli� into a swivel,
real sexy, and then battement,
and then soutenu, turn it up and then hold it,
pop that leg out, one, two,
dip the head, three,
and you flip it like you mean it on four.
There we go! Nice!
Um...
I'm not gonna stay long.
I just wanted to clear some things up.
You were right.
I wasn't honest with you the other night.
This is still new...
And I'm still figuring out how to talk about it and when.
But that's not what's happening here.
_
You have more...
Experience than I do.
A lot more. And I...
I got a little... nervous.
_
You don't have to do anything differently.
I'm not some fragile thing, and I really didn't want
the first person after
to know, and then have a bunch of
baggage about it, because it's my
baggage and I'm dealing with it.
_
I do enjoy being with you.
_
I wanna stay.
_
Positive.
I have those feelings too sometimes.
You do?
Of course.
It's terrifying what we're doing.
But I don't think just because a baby has Down syndrome means that
they'll never play basketball or...
Snowboard...
Or listen to music.
I think I can do all those things with him or her...
In our own way.
I kept telling myself that I didn't want to know the gender
because it'd be fun to wait, be surprised.
But...
Actually, I think not knowing was my of keeping the baby at a distance.
So, now you want to know?
Actually, I do know.
What?
I called Dr. Brunstetter back and asked.
- Well, what are we having? - Um...
Oh, come on!
Tell me! What are we having?
You know, maybe it's best not to know.
I mean, they say there are so few real surprises left in life...
Lily Margaret Summers.
It's a boy.
A boy?
We're having a boy?
You were right. That place was totally sleazy.
Really?
I kind of thought it was classy.
What are you talking about?
Those girls were barely older than Bay and Daphne.
And all those men oggling them...
They were gorgeous.
I was oggling them, too.
I mean, I wouldn't want Bay or Daphne to work there...
Damn right.
It wasn't the depressing pit of despair I imagined.
But, honey, I
don't think it's the right business for us.
See? Okay, we're on the same page. Say no more. Done.
But you know what might be the right business?
What?
Pas de pole.
It's a new workout that combines pole dancing and ballet.
How'd it go?
- A minus! - Yeah! That's what I'm talking about!
Where's Vimla?
Oh, she and Josh went out for coffee.
They're not broken up?
I don't know what they're doing. They're talking.
I thought he'd be really hungover,
- but he was actually fine. - Yeah, I made sure he was okay.
Picked him up this morning and took him to the Drip for an infusion.
What's the Drip?
It's that trendy place over in the Power and Light District.
The nurse will hook you up to an IV vitamin drip.
It's supposed to cure your hangover.
You drove him?
Wasn't that awkward?
A little.
But I couldn't let him jeopardize
my girlfriend's grade, now could I?
And we've all done stupid stuff while we're drunk, right?
He's a good guy and we're still friends.
You're amazing.
Don't make me blush.

I am so excited about this new series
and you are my first commission.
I was so happy when you came into the coffeehouse.
Well, those portraits up there are pretty unique.
Thank you.
It made me think,
"I wonder what that artist would make out of me."
I had to find out.
Well, I'm just doing some preliminary sketches right now.
In the meantime, why don't you
tell me about yourself?
