Happy "Switched at Birth" Day!
Today is Monday, June 6, 2016. On this date, in 2011, Switched at Birth premiered on television:
Monday, June 6, 2011: This Is Not A Pipe. I'm going to re-watch the episode tonight, in honor of the anniversary, and bump up the episode thread for discussion.
Often pilot episodes are painful to watch, but when I found this series in the summer of 2012, I remember this one leaving me eager to press the button and continue watching the next episode on Netflix. Those first 22 episodes of Seasons 1A and 1B are addictive!
Here's the script (unfortunately, minus the sign language):
01x01 - This is Not a Pipe - Switched at Birth Transcripts - Forever Dreaming
Here is a synopsis from Wikia:
This Is Not a Pipe - Switched at Birth Wiki - Wikia
From a school lab assignment, Bay Kennish discovers that her blood type is AB, which is incompatible with her parents, Kathryn and John, who are both type A. Intrigued by her new discovery, she convinces them to visit a genetic testing facility where it’s confirmed that Bay is not their biological daughter.
There was a mix up at the hospital and both families took home the wrong babies!
Days later, the Kennishes are introduced to their biological daughter Daphne and her mother Regina Vasquez. The Kennishes also learn that Daphne is deaf and immediately start researching ways to help her, suggesting the possibility of Daphne attending Bay’s private school.
Regina is against Daphne attending the school but agrees to move her family into the Kennish house to deal with their new family situation. See you in the discussion!
