Switched at Birth: Spring Finale

I have to say I was a bit disappointed with this episode. I was hoping for more bang, oomph, drama. Some of the deaf signing fights that have been on here have been more insane then audible ones. Let's dig in, shall we?

We start by Emmet saying he needs to talk to Bay in a serious face. We think he is going to tell her about Simone, but instead he pulls out a ring box. He gets down on one knee and she starts freaking out. He opens the box to reveal two yellow earplugs. Huh? He signs will you go to prom with me? The earplugs are because deaf proms are super loud, since they can feel the bass better that way. Ahaha. She says yes of course.

Meanwhile Daphne is trying to ask Wilke to her prom. She wants something creative and her banner is not cutting it. Instead she makes these wanted posters of James "wilke" Wilkerson and then cuffs him at school. Tells him he is under arrest and must go to prom with her. He says he cannot go because his dad has him on lock down until he finishes his paper. She is understandably sad and uncuffs him. Her and Bay decide they should all go together. So Daphne asks her deaf friend at the car wash to come. He says no. Then Daphne goes to bring Wilke lemon bars and meets his dad. He tells her that Wilke is off to boarding school in a few days.

Kathryn puts on this amazing red dress and shows John, but gets no response. She is going to wear that when they chaperon the prom. In comes their lawyer and he says he found a nurse who may be a good person to testify. He asks Kathryn to come with him, but not John, because its too intimidating. They go to see this lady and she tells them that all records were written in pen and because of the overworked employees of course there may have been mistakes and smudged bracelets. She then talks about the anti-Christ and they realize she may not be a viable witness anymore.

Regina gets a call from Angelo from the immigration office. She goes to see him and promises to help him get a lawyer but that she will not get back together with him. He tells her he went back to Italy to clear his name and got nabbed coming back in, well duh. She decides to do Bay's hair for prom since she missed out on so many years of doing it. Bay can only think about Angelo. Regina is still dating her boyfriend and invites him to come over while Daphne is out late at prom.

Emmet shows up in his motorcycle to pick up Bay for prom. She looks amazing and so happy. He gives her a helmet that has her name on it. Super cute. They ride off to prom (no pictures?). Daphne is getting ready when her friend from the carwash is there in a t-shirt tux saying they can go as friends. Just then a stretch limo shows up with Wilke looking soooo cute in it. He is upset about the friend being there, but agrees to take him with them. It ruined his plan of having the perfect prom night.

Bay and Emmett go to see Angelo at immigration. While she is there he tells her he cannot call his lawyer since it costs him and he has run out of money. She offers him $40, which is all she has.

The Prom.....

John is there chaperoning alone sans Kathryn. He confiscates a flask from carwash boy and then drinks some outside. Melody joins him. So cute. You can almost see them together. Meanwhile, Kathryn is stuck with her lawyer because they have a flat. She gets cold and he gives her his jacket and almost kiss. Ok Mrs. Robinson. But she pulls away and asks Toby to come pick her up.

Daphne and Wilke talk about boarding school. He says he was trying to get a good grade on his paper, this way maybe his dad would let him stay. She says they should just enjoy their last night together. She says we should invite Toby and Simone and he says no. She asks why and he tells her about Simone sleeping with Emmett. She doesn't believe him. She goes to confront Emmett and he is busy dancing the night away with Bay. She asks him straight up if he slept with Simone and he signs no over and over again. She apologizes for asking and tells Wilke he lied to her face. Kathryn and Toby get there and her and John dance. They say they want to make up and go back to the way things were.

Emmett pulls Bay aside and says he needs to talk to her. This is it. He cant sign the words. He signs that he hooked up with someone at the basketball game. She asks who and automatically thinks it was Daphne. Until he signs Simone. She is furious. Not only did he cheat, but he cheated with her arch nemesis. She storms out and tells him not to follow her. She goes and throws her helmet in the river. Toby sees Emmett and asks where Bay is and Emmett says I don't know. I was hoping he would tell Toby and Toby would punch him, but the scene ends.

Regina is back at home and after stealing condoms and sleeping with her new boyfriend, she gets a doorbell ring. John tells her he found a lawyer for Angelo but the only catch is, he will have to marry a US citizen to stay in the country. Uh oh.

When will switched at Birth return? Hopefully soon. Were you hoping for a bigger blowout?? I was! Previews show Bay confronting Simone. I love this!
