Switched at Birth - Self-Portrait With Bandaged Ear - 1x13 Recap

Following Emmett's arrest, things aren't going well for him. Or for Bay for that matter. Turns out he was arrested for painting the billboard for her. Melody blames Bay for the whole thing and tells her to just stay away from her son. Blech. She's horrible. 

Emmett is avoiding Bay because he's upset about the arrest so Daphne goes to see him. We get another heartbreaking scene from his character when he expresses his pain about being deaf and getting arrested. He compares it to drowning when he wasn't able to defend himself or explain. Daphne calls Bay ignorant because she can never understand what he's going through. When Emmett is ready, Bay explains to him that it's always easier to go through these things with someone instead of being alone.

Daphne is disappointed when it seems her basketball coach has no interest in actually letting her play. Toby finds out that the only reason she was recruited was because the school gets a 20,000 dollar grant if they encourage students with disabilities to play. To make her day worse, Daphne decides to go see Angelo. She asks him to tell her the truth about why he left her. He tries to explain he thought that Regina was cheating on him. Again and again Daphne demands to know if it had anything to do with her being deaf. Angelo is honest and reveals that it of course, made the situation difficult. Daphne leaves and tries to bond with her real dad over some basketball.

Angelo offers Regina help with money for her salon. She hesitates because she doesn't think going into business with him would be a good idea. Maybe it's not. After having to fire their lawyer for hooking up with someone that works on the hospital board, John discovers that there were two years that Angelo completely disappeared. What was he up to?
