Previously on Switched at Birth.
So, I was thinking we should hang out.
Totally.
You good with this?
Yeah.
I want you to know that I would never try to replace your mom.
She's not dead.
What?
She's still alive.
I want you to move in with me.
I have feelings for someone else.
What?
It's just feelings.
_
Hey! Nice to meet you.
You, too.
If you don't want me to move out here, then you need to say it.
_
You do this now, it's done.
It's forever.
What are you doing here?
_
I know, but...
How did you get here?
_
And Skye?
_
I love you, too.
_
What?
_
- _ - Stop it!
- _ - Stop saying that! Stop! Stop!
- _ - Please stop what you're doing.
- _ - Stop saying that! Stop! Stop!
Stop! Stop! Please stop saying that.
Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!

Do you know sleeping next to you
is like sleeping next to a four-year-old?
I'm sorry.
I'm pretty sure I got
a foot in the face like three times.
My mom used to call me Superfudge when I was little.
You know Superfudge?
The Judy Blume book?
Are you kidding? I love Superfudge!
Finally! A book we have in common!
What does that mean?
Well, you read this.
And I read this.
What are you saying, that you're the beauty and I'm the brain?
Red, you're the beauty and the brains.
You wanna do something tonight?
My brother is spinning at Scratch.
- In. - Excellent.
I gotta go.
_
Hey, sweetheart.
Hey.
So, what are you gonna do today?
You're lookin' at it.
Come on, honey,
I want you to get up out of bed and get dressed.
We'll apply to art school again.
We'll get you a job.
We gotta make a plan.
I know you're sad. I remember how much it hurts to be rejected.
And I know how much you love Emmett.
Honey...
What's going on? Talk to me.
I can't get him out of my head.
I look everywhere and he's there...
and it's just torture.
And you think by replaying those moments,
imagining them differently, it's going to make you feel better?
But then you snap out of it
and you have to remember all over again
that he's gone.
Then you just have to get him out of your head.
If he pops in, you gotta do something else.
Make a phone call, do 10 jumping jacks,
I don't care what it is, but you have to push him out.
But you gotta get out. Baby steps.
Actually, here. "Sea" is spelled s-e-a, not s-e-e.
What are those things called again?
Homophones.
In a million years, I wouldn't have known that.
So, hon, you remember the other day, before we were interrupted...
You were saying something about your mom.
Did you mean that she's alive in your heart? Or in heaven?
Because I know how hard it can be when someone you love dies.
I meant she's alive in Georgia.
But I'm not supposed to talk about it.
Are you sure?
She's working at a car shop back where we used to live, in Atlanta.
Her name is Hope Paxton.
I found her on the Internet right away.
I still haven't e-mailed her yet.
Paxton is our old last name.
What do you mean "old last name"?
My two favorite people in the world. What are you doing?
Going over... what were they again?
Homophones.
Better you than me.
Hey, bud, can you go up and get ready for your trumpet lesson?
Okay.
You want me to go to a social establishment at night
with you and your boyfriend?
Yeah, that sounds like a blast.
First of all, he's not my boyfriend.
And second of all, I want you
to change out of your pj's and eat something besides chips and coffee.
Toby's spinning and I think he could use the support.
Just come for an hour.
One hour. Please?
Fine.
Good girl.
_
Um, I gotta go.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, I'll see you tonight.
_
- Oh, I'm sorry. - Excuse me.
Lily! Hey!
Hi.
Are you all right?
Yeah, I'm fine.
I'm really sorry about you and Toby.
Bay's going through a breakup right now also,
and she's absolutely miserable.
I keep telling her that it just takes time.
In a few months, everything's going to be better.
No, it's not.
It will! It just takes time.
It's never going to be okay.
I know it's hard to believe that right now, but...
I'm pregnant.
Are you sure?
And I don't know how it happened
because we were really careful.
Is it Toby's?
Of course.
I'm sorry, it's...
He told me that you said you had feelings for some other guy...
Yeah, but nothing happened with him,
which I told Toby.
It was just some stupid infatuation
that I should've kept to myself,
and now Toby hates me.
Does he know?
No one knows.
I just moved here a year ago.
I don't know that many people.
My parents are 5,000 miles away
and would not understand.
You can't tell Melody...
Or Bay, or anyone.
Yeah. Of course.
I'm 24 years old. I've just started my career.
I don't know how to support this baby
or take care of it.
I have no family here.
And I'm not even with the father.
You have to talk to him.
I've texted him a bunch of times.
He won't even respond.

Hey!
Hi.
I think you want to dance with me.
I think that you have been misinformed.

My bad. I'm sorry, is this your boyfriend?
Travis? No. No, no, no.
He thinks that you're my boyfriend.

Thanks, dude.
Excuse me?
I think that I have a say in this,

even on my best night, not a dancer.

Hey, Marty! How are you doing?
Thanks for coming over and doing it here.
That's how I always did it with my old guy.
You know, I always thought it was easier to write a big check to the government
over a glass of scotch and a nice cigar.
Speaking of which,
I just received this fine box from the Dominican Republic.
Is your wife around?
Kathryn, no. She lets me do the honors as far as taxes are concerned.
I'd really like to talk with both of you.
I'm sure I can fill her in. What's going on?
Let's sit down.
- Hey, Iris! - Hey!
Hey, guys.
I am gonna go grab us some of those trivia games and a drink.
- You want anything? - I'm fine.
Me, too.
You're here with him?
Yeah.
He's a really good guy.
_
What are you talking about?
Nothing.
I really should get back to my friends.
And I have to actually talk to my brother.
No worries. Go!
Be off! I shall await thee and inebriate.
Hey, can I talk to you?
Sorry, not right now.
Later, on a break.
Okay. Sure.
"Hope Paxton."
"Marriage record."
Marcus?
"Marcus Paxton."

_
I don't know why I did that.
I'm losing my mind, Travis.
I think I am seriously losing it.
_
I am. Did you see what just happened?
_
But if I told you why I did it,
you would think that I am crazy.
_
Yeah.
_
I shouldn't have come out tonight.
All I want to do right now is just go home,
climb under my covers and cry.
_
What did you do with yours?
_
I don't want it around.
_
No, that's all right.
_
Yeah. You're right.
You're the best, you know that?
I hate to trash the guy before me,
but I'm going over stuff and I'm a little nervous.
But he was a good business manager.
He saved you a lot of money to make you think that.
I'm just not sure all the ways he used were on the up and up.
He depreciated more assets than you had.
There's a high six-figure deficit every year for the past nine years.
What!
If the IRS regards this as gross negligence,
and they decide to penalize you, plus interest,
your liability for each year could triple.
Oh, my god.
What do we do?
My advice is to offer up our mistakes to the government,
instead of taking a chance that they discover it on their own.
When it's this much money,
with such a well-known person, they like to make examples of people.
So what are we talking?
I don't know yet.
I'm gonna do everything I can
to make this go away in as painless a way as possible.
But there will be pain.
Okay. What state is west of Alabama?
A, Tennessee, B, Georgia, C, Arkansas, or D...
Mississippi.
D. Mississippi.
Damn, I had no idea.
Okay, next!
The smallest state in terms of land is...
Rhode Island. Obviously.
Wow. It is so handy dating a brain,
especially when I'm about to win a pitcher full of beer
and a basket of buffalo wings. Thank you, milady!
Were you asleep in ninth grade geography?
Hungover, mostly. On wine coolers.
Ugh...
You know, you don't even eat buffalo wings.
Let's just do something else. Pool?
Yeah, sure.
Iris doesn't like me.
What? That's not true.
Travis doesn't either. I know that.
Is there anyone else?
Is it because of the whole, like,
cherry bomb thing, from a million years ago?
Can't they take a joke?
It's not just that.
Then what is it?
They don't think that we're right for each other.
They think we're mismatched.
Okay, what do you think?
I don't know.
You don't know?
We are really different.
Is this because I don't know the capital of Arkansas?
- No. - But it's like a little bit that.
You don't seem to care that you don't know it.
That's what I don't get.
I wasn't valedictorian, but I'm not dumb.
I know that.
You know what? I don't even know why I'm defending myself.
What does it matter if they think that?
What does it matter what anyone thinks of me anyways?
You don't care what your friends think of me?
No, actually, I don't.
Uh, my brother finally took a break and I really need to talk to him.
Yeah. Sure. Go ahead.
Sorry.
Can I come in?
Hey, babe.
I got your text, Will's upstairs watching TV. What's going on?
What's going on, Marcus,
is that I've got 911 ready to dial on my phone.
You've got one minute to tell me the truth, or I'm calling the cops.
Hope was messed up.
Strung out for years.
Even while she was pregnant.
- And you? - No. I wasn't an addict.
I wasn't an angel either.
I was in a gang...
- I know. - And I had a record...
A long one.
But I turned it all around the day Keon was born.
Everything changed for me.
I wanted to do better for him.
But a dad with a rap sheet doesn't play well in court.
I tried to get full custody of him, but they like to give it to the mom.
And she was good at hiding her addiction.
But I wanted to help her out.
You have to want to be helped.
Plus she had a boyfriend who liked to slap her.
Oh, no.
All I know is...
I showed up one day and she was passed out,
a needle in her arm and Keon was missing.
I tore the place apart looking for him.
Finally found him in a...
a trash can.
Hiding, 'cause he was scared this guy might come back and hurt him.
Yeah.
That was it.
I grabbed Keon and started driving.
I didn't stop for three days.
You could've told someone.
The cops, Social Services...
And go back and forth for months while he was still in her care?
Risk that I'd show up one day
and something'd have happened to him? No!
You don't take chances like that when it comes to your kid.
So you just walked away from your whole life?
- Made up new names? - Yeah.
And changing cities every six months...
not seeing my mom or my brother in years...
never making any friends...
But I did what I had to do
to protect my son and I'd do it again in a second.
But she is his mother.
She just woke up one day and her child was missing.
What if she's changed? Cleaned up?
No, she hasn't!
I know she hasn't.
And even if she has, it's too late.
She lost her shot.
You mean it's too late because you could go to jail for kidnapping.
That, too.
So what now?
You're just gonna keep running for the rest of your life?
I wanted to stay.
As long as we were safe and no one found us.
I understand how mad you must be...
but I'm begging you not to turn me in.
Or at least give us a head start before you do.
I'm not going to do anything tonight.
I just need to think.
I was going to tell you, Regina.
I was.
I just hadn't worked up to it yet.
I'm sorry.
I know it's because of Skye.
Have they been seeing each other for a long time?
Like the whole semester?
Did everyone know but me?
_
You can tell me. Really.
I can take it, I promise.
I just want to know.
_
I'm a train wreck,
and I don't even think that he cares.
You should've seen him that day on the beach...
He was so cold and...
_
And we fall apart.
_
I hope it hurts.
I hope that he is miserable.
He did this because of what happened with Tank.
Like that was my fault.
You know something.
_
That's not true.
Things were fine.
I mean, it was...
it was one bad day, but we were still us.
Something happened to me
and he bailed because he could only see how it affected him.
_
That's what happened.
He's cold.
He's selfish! He's heartless!
And I hate him.
I hate him. I will hate him for the rest of my life.
In fact, I wish that I had never even met him!
I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that.
I shouldn't have come... I should go.
_
Yeah, everyone keeps saying that.
I just think you should talk to her.
About what? Getting back together?
She made her choice.
I'm not going to be sloppy seconds to some guy because he turned her down.
But nothing happened with him.
It was a stupid crush. She loves you.
You're suddenly best friends with Lily?
I ran into her.
Toby, she's in a lot of pain.
Good.
Toby...
She was embarrassed of me!
Of my job, of what I wear, of my age.
She wanted a guy that people would be impressed with.
Someone with a big job and a big r�sum�
that she could bring to parties and get ahead with her career.
I don't think that's true.
It is true.
You love her still, right?
Yeah, but that doesn't matter.
She let doubts about me creep into her brain
and convince her that I wasn't good enough.
So, fine. I'm over it.
Look, she just wants to talk to you.
And if you still care about her, I think you owe...
I don't want to hear anything that she has to say.
Lily and I, we're done. Forever.
I gotta get to my next set.
_
Hey, I didn't know you were down here.
I was just thinking back on all those years I had to use a laundromat.
Digging under the car seat for quarters,
praying I had enough to get to the towels.
It's so hard hearing how bad it was for you and Daphne.
I read another story about two other girls
who were switched at birth, did you see that?
No.
It happened in France. They were nine by the time they discovered it.
By then, it was too late to switch back.
They had bonded with their mothers by then.
Yeah. Of course.
Hits me all over again.
Keeping Daphne from you...
letting Bay be kept from me...
So much time.
Oh, honey,
we've been through all that.
I know.
Just...
separating a mother from her child,
no matter what the reason...
Look, Regina...
I am never going to say that keeping Daphne from us was right,
but I think I understand why you did it.
You thought it was best to keep the girls in the family
that they knew for their stability...
I did.
And I've been thinking about it a lot for the past three years.
And if I were in your situation,
and I had to lie to protect my kid...
I would've done whatever I had to, too.
Did I help with whatever was bothering you?
Yeah.
Emmett, just tell me.
Then why didn't you tell me when it happened?
_
Like what? No, no, really.
Like what? Like, mad because some girl kissed my boyfriend?
Stop! Stop fighting.
Stop yelling at him!
Don't you see you're driving him away!
This is the night everything changed.
Do not let him get on that plane! Do not go to that party!
Didn't you listen to Melody?
Don't you get it?
This was never about Tank
or Skye. Look at us.
We were growing apart. This was going to happen no matter what.
No, that's not true.
Even if you had moved to L.A., it probably still would've happened.
But then you would've been across the country
and it would've been a hundred times worse than it is now.
You're wrong.
I just have to go back to this night and change it.
It doesn't feel the same.
I don't even know what you're talking about half of the time.
Remember?
He broke up with me because he's still mad at me
for taking the fall for Daphne,
but I don't regret that.
I had to do it.
Okay.
But you have to see that for him, that was the beginning of the end.
It's both of your faults...
and it's no one's fault.
I miss him so much.
I know.
But you have to stop tormenting yourself.
You have to stop replaying what went wrong.
And you have to know that you'll be okay.
Will I?
Yeah, you will.
We will.
Okay.
I understand...
Why you did what you did.
I don't like it. I wish it wasn't like this.
But I understand.
I'll keep your secret.
- Are you sure? - Mm-hmm.
Can I come in?
So you know how you feel different around different people?
When I'm with my friends,
I feel like a leader, like the smartest kid in class.
But when I first met you,
I felt like the ugly deaf girl.
Daphne, you're gorgeous.
You're this incredibly popular sophomore
that a million girls on campus talk about.
So when my friends say this is going to end badly,
it feels like they're right.
Look, I don't know who is saying what about me,
but whatever image you just painted of me is not who I am.
I like you. And I don't care what anyone thinks about us.
After such a rocky semester,
I just don't want to set myself up for another failure.
Does that make sense?
No. You're not making any sense.
I'm sorry I let other people get in my head.
It won't happen again.
Hey, sweetheart, just checking up on you.
I see you've rediscovered your closet.
Yeah, um...
Hey, do you wanna go for a walk?
Get some fresh air? Maybe see a movie, just something?
Yes. I do.
Me, too. I'll be down in a sec.
No! No, no, no, no!
You are not supposed to be here!
I'm kicking you out. Go.
_
Oh, yeah?
Give me time.
Just give me time.
Hey! I heard you took a sick day.
Are you not feeling well?
I...
- I just needed to... - Relax, of course.
Okay, so I talked to him last night, and he's upset, but he loves you.
And you love him!
And I'm not saying that this is going to be easy,
but that's the most important part,
how you two feel about each other.
So, let's go up there
and tell him what's really going on.
The doctor called me...
because of my brother,
I went in to get tested...
I knew there was a higher chance...
I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about.
The baby has Down syndrome.
