(video is in complete silence)
- Dinner's ready!
- Just a sec.
- Dinner's ready!
- Ugh.
- Dinner's ready.
- I'm not hungry.
- Shut that off.
[So now we're going to discuss your points of view,
how you've been discriminated against and challenged.]
- Let's start with you, Charlie.
- You said a ski lift. Why?
- While I was skiing there was an announcement,
an emergency warning-- that an avalanche coming down.
I'd had no idea because I couldn't hear the warning.
1:34 [It's important ___ because you have to evacuate immediately
when you hear that kind of warning.]
[It's discrimination _______].
- Good point.
- Wesley...
You mentioned airplane tickets. Why?
- Why? I couldn't hear the announcements over the intercom,
and had no idea the plane was about to depart
and I missed my flight.
[I was so frustrated. Nobody teaches the staff to ____].
- Good point.
- Vanessa, the bus?
- First off, it's not Vanessa on the shoulder.
It's Vanessa on the chin.
Anyways, I was riding on the bus
and an announcement came on and I missed it
and had to hike a mile back in the sweaty heat.
- Okay, got it.
- And Janet, you said amusement park?
Why did you feel discriminated there?
- Well, every time I asked for an interpreter,
they'd brush me off.
I insisted I needed an interpreter to enjoy the music,
I want to see the music.
And then the animal shows-- I can see what's happening,
but I want to know the details.
They refused to give me an interpreter.
- That's enough.
The point is you all shouldn't get put down.
We're all Deaf and should be treated equally to hearing people..
[Put us down... take advantage... I'm deaf... acting dumb?]
- Hey!
- What?
- 3:46 Wake up! [?]
- Right now? What for?
- I want a morning kiss would be nice.
- 3:53 [?].
Ugh, morning breath. It stinks!
- Janet! - Whoa!
Hi! It's been so long!
How've you been?
- I'm good. I miss you.
How are you?
- I'm fine.
Been busy with the kids, cleaning the house.
Where's your implant?
- Well, it's awkward...
- [You can come by any time You don't need an appointment].
[Back _______________].
- Bye! - Goodbye!
(screaming along to music)
- Where's your dad?
(mouthing along to music)
[____________hearing sister.]
- Where's your dad? - I dunno.
- I'm thirsty.
- Hey, what's wrong?
- Nothing, just thirsty.
[- I'm so happy _________________.]
- I'm so nervous.
- I understand.
It's a big step for us both.
- Please sit down.
- Why-- - Wait.
Go on.
- Why aren't you using your implant?
It's too hard.
I have a Deaf family.
Using my implant is frowned on.
I've kept it out of sight.
[But you can't just keep taking it on and off.]
[You need to keep believing].
You need to open your heart.
- You're right.
I have to open my mind.
Looking back, the first time I turned on my implant
it was a wonderful experience.
- Your friends, your family, they're pressuring you
to take off your implant, but you've gotta be strong
and follow your heart.
- Oh, I've missed you!
- I've missed you too.
Where's your implant?
