pack and unpack all over again so what will you do not quite sure yet hang out at my house I mean I am rarely there and I love it I'll have you over sometime best views of the sunset plus plus I need

it is glamorous well what do you do I'm a nurse uh emergency room nurse well that is exciting it's more busy and exciting doesn't leave much time for a social life me either I was in a relationship that ended about a year ago not a pleasant breakup oh well I'm trying to be friends with The One That Got Away although I think I may have ran just as much as she did her name is Susan [Music] sometimes I think I just miss having someone to come home to someone to greet me with a glass of wine and dinner that isn't delivered or heated up in the microwave um I'm just glad that someone isn't [Music] Molly oh okay um we just met and I am totally oversharing well you're really easy to talk to not a diva at all oh a diva I hope not just a piano [Music] player so since you asked I um I think we'll stay in town for a little while maybe stay put at the Empire Club it feels like home and small and cozy plus I uh have some things I got to do over the next couple months plan on seeing me in the audience I certainly hope so good night good night oh and um let's do this again sometime if you want to one more question I hope this isn't prying but I assume since you said Molly that you're into women or women yeah I hope that's not too forward no no and you have have a new girlfriend me no no uhuh no that settles it I um I think I know all they need to know um we are going to do a few more nights at the Empire Club so I hope to see you there not sooner [Music] it's nearly midnight what are you doing here I waited the diner across the street to make sure you made it home or succumb to an overnight with marvelous Amala jeez Susan that's way too stalkerish even for you come on you know it's not like me to just hop in bed like that you on the other hand well I needed my big bag don't make this about me no no no no no no I am going to bed alone one question one was she everything you hope she'd be more night [Music] morning hi where'd you go last night out by yourself did I forget to ask your permission I worry about you that's all well one of these days you're going to have to stop that I was hungry I went to the little restaurant around the corner is that okay with you don't get snippy with me I just wanted to tell you that your set last night was amazing the Empire wants to book you for the entire month Thursdays through Sundays are you good with that yeah it's perfect just don't book anything out of town for the next couple months but I'm working on your European tour and you can't not do that I know I know just just put it off for a little bit okay until I I well until you what until I take some time for me I've more than earned it you can't but now it would be ridiculous you're hot I can get you into any club or or Symphony Hall anywhere besides what am I supposed to do while you go on vacation it's about me Catherine not you it I just I have some stuff I got to do okay personal stuff the month at Empire is okay though yeah just nothing after and you should go on a real vacation you've earned it a real vacation I wouldn't know what to do with that okay okay I'll think about it you want some coffee no I have to run I've already had three cups no more for me um but here's the contract look it over sign it and uh get back to me I have to run I'll see you Thursday night at the club oh I know Italy I've always wanted to see Rome CIA [Music] Bella and it's loud as hell can't stop thinking about the nonsense so under a spell longing for the greener pastures why can't I to see take for gred this grass that's right in front of me now what feel all of [Music] pressure obsessed with what's better [Music] only hey Carly um you let her know I'm here [Music] you must have many questions I uh I don't even know what to ask I mean and the answer to every question I have is yes Samantha you are going deaf not quite yet Samantha not quite yet so I've been thinking about what you told me sensory neural hearing loss big word for DEA I mean I read the reports and I see the numbers of moderate hearing loss of 70 DB and I just I Dre the next test and what it will show Samantha we've been friends long before you came to me for testing I fitted your late mother with hearing aids so when you came in that first time I thought it would be a simple fix of prescribing you an antibiotic or hearing aids and I thought given time it would improve yeah I thought it would be a simple fix too you will be careful you'll have times when you hear pretty well then times when you don't it's wening and depressing and soon it will be gone I know what my patients go through and I see it is terribly difficult for them sight speaking hearing we depend on them to be there forever Samantha I have some words of wisdom for you suggestions do you want them yeah it may get harder and harder to hear people when they're all chattering at once keep life simple well my career is a room full of people fans and reporters coming at me all at once no you can keep reporters a day just do one-on-one interviews you set the rules and don't be afraid to ask people to repeat themselves even people with full hearing do that and should it's just it's the music I can't imagine not hearing a song or a Melody it's it's my whole world and like I told you you have Decades of memory stored so in a sense if someone says play that song Fly Me to the Moon you'll hear it it won't disappear remember the old never the new and above all keep filling your head with music listen intently memorize every note music will always be there just in a different way well you let me know if you find a miracle cure Dr Christopher but I won hold my breath I told ja thatting little tables with comfy seats would be so much better though I think his idea of sofas instead of chairs is kit they just aren't that comfortable what oh sorry um could you repeat what you just said sofas not that comfortable I swear Sam half the time it's like you're not even listening to me I think you're going de uh okay spill it I um I am going deaf Catherine oh I get that I mean I don't hear nearly as well as I used to either oh not just hearing lost but um one day not too long from now um all I'll hear is silence oh my God Sammy you're not kidding what happened long story but boils down to severe nerve damage in both ears doctor doesn't know why and um it can't be reversed not even with hearing aids or one one of those um implants that I've read about nothing I have asked every question but the the trio the piano how can you play what you can't hear I mean I mean can you I mean for now I can hear enough I practically play most songs with my eyes shut so soon I um God just W hear it just Sam oh oh your life is going to change I mean your career you're aren't going to ever do Europe again and Symphonies forget about it I guess you're just going to be stuck in little clubs like the Empire until well you know I am not dead yet Catherine I swear do not have a compassionate bone in your body that's not fair I'm just shocked it it changes everything what do you need me for if I have nowhere to book you what am I going to do I cannot believe this is your response uh um right now I am concentrating on me and not you I'm happy with the Empire Club okay there I said it now I have to get ready for the show tonight so don't be mad at me it's just not anything I thought would ever happen me Nei [Music] a [Music] hello hello Samantha yes it's me Abigail from the other night the restaurant your Super Fan you okay am I disturbing you no no no no um I am just uh distracted by work you remember me right I'm glad you found my little card in your pocket and yes I I definitely remember you I'm coming to your show tonight and wondered if you might like

Abigail yes I'm really glad you called [Music] uh Jack Fred Samantha asked me to send some champagne to this woman Abigail McCarthy who's coming tonight how am I supposed to know who she is let's see how about you ask every single woman if her name is Abigail right great idea we have champagne don't we I don't think I've ever served champagne like ever look in the cooler pick the best one let's

become great you're hungry for the music yeah well you were very kind letting me take a chair in the back and just clean up after to pay for my season pass that was very nice you ever read anything about Stevie Wonder and his journey as a blind pianist not much imagine he's never seen a piano or keyboard doesn't know what the audience looks like doesn't even know what the woman he married looks

that just about what I did to drive us apart you didn't do anything I was too needy too demanding I pushed you away we had a push P relationship you want to talk about that I need to talk to someone you're always so logical you know me so well I'm listening I've only been seeing Samantha for a short time but we have gotten close so fast I feel like I don't know I think I might be pushing her away it's like she hiding some something from your paranoid personality has raised its ridiculous head I'm sure you're just wondering if this relationship is real or not how about you just sit back enjoy it and not think about it too much no it's it's like she has a secret you really like her don't you and so what if she does she's a world famous jazz pianist who's really an agent for the FBI or she's straight and you're just her lesbian fling and she's leading you on trust me she is definitely a woman who likes women and yeah well I I may just be a fling but yeah well I I don't mean that kind of secret ask her I can't do that of course you can't if you have any hope of having this woman permanently in your life be honest get the questions out up front it saves a lot of grief years later I learned that the hard way you're probably right of course I am but I thought you wanting to meet with to talk about something important this is important I mean I don't want to mess this up I really do like her I mean is it possible to fall in love this quickly you kiss me seriously come on just kiss me whoa I'm I'm not going to I know you're right I am just so confused okay listen I have to work

sorry about that I if you drink some she gets all intrusive and she babbles and I well you guys were our lovers I get it oh my God very brief very brief very long time ago well it's obvious that she loves you more than I would think a manager would I am not a cheater and I'm not a liar oh well what is it that she meant when you know she said you would have to tell me one day I don't like I don't

find out the results of my test mhm um I would say that hit voices and noises are long gone and uh yes when a bunch of people are talking it just it just sounds like cat's fighting in a garbage can well I would say um right now I'm hearing life like a like a whisper okay so um my how long do you think that soon mhm okay yeah no thank you I I appreciate it mhm okay thanks yes we'll talk soon bye [Music] good book yeah pretty good nothing better than a good oldfashioned English mystery I need to tell you something you look so serious it sort of is you're going to Europe for 6 months I knew it all right well this has been uh been fun no no well that's that's not it just please about 4 months ago um I felt like my hearing wasn't as sharp I thought at the rip old age of 40-some I might need hearing aids and and so I went to an audiologist who referred to UCSF and to say the least I definitely have hearing issues that's it so you wear hearing aids the thousands of people do probably thousands more should my grandmother still this was your big secret you were worried about telling me you shouldn't have been well it's it's gotten worse Abigail and um soon I'm going to be completely deaf I mean I mean completely totally deaf oh SM I don't know what to say I know it's just this whole thing has just turned my world upside down you can't imagine what this is going to be like for me I've never been around a completely deaf person I I don't know what to do just you keep doing what you've been doing I mean it does help when you're right in front of me when you talk I can still hear and um but just don't yell people seem to think yelling makes hearing better but it does not and I'm getting better at reading lips it's just this changes so many things that I I got to figure out now like like will I ever play again for one will anyone hire a deaf musician if I can't hear the music how can I perform or compose how can I compose what I can't hear wow you just give it all up and retire it's very depressing just I get so frustrated and angry but mostly I'm just sad I don't want to lose you I'm going to go um I have to get some laundry done and get ready for work tomorrow so just take all this in you know I just told you that I am soon going to be 100% deaf and your reaction is that you need to go do your laundry what is the matter with you Abigail you don't want to be with a deaf woman you can't handle it are you embarrassed or are you just with me because you want to hear me play the Pian piano be with someone famous H is that it I need to think about this [Music] holy God how did you get in here I tried the door you got to lock up I mean you were up here all alone you're back I thought um I don't know what I thought did you get your laundry done I know stupid

to a g well I have actually been here just once when it was just a normal bar I didn't know it was a gay bar and it certainly wasn't decorated like this they change it up for a theme nights right let's uh save our drinks and go dance come so you decided you do want to be with me look when you told me that you were going completely deaf it threw me but it wasn't that I didn't want to be with you when you kicked me out out I just thought you didn't want to be with me you asked if I was having a bad night I was I have those and I'm warning you I may have more how deal come on let's dance no I don't dance I feel silly plus I don't really hear it very well I mean I I sort of do but not seriously I had no idea how much hearing you've actually lost how am I supposed to help you if you don't tell me what's going on it seems to leave me a little more every day and I just thought you would be bored with me or at the very least sick of me if that's all I did was talk about it if you're wondering where I went those few days it was to research anything that could help you and since music is your life let's keep bringing it into your life as much as we can why you ever want to be about the def one just baffles me you are so much more than your ability to hear so much more okay come on let's dance music is more than hearing it's a feeling so let's feel the music from the tips of these toes to the top of this beautiful face close your eyes and just tell me what you feel oh I feel it I do I I feel the vibrations through my body I do and you still here a bit Yeah dancing skills you might want to stick to the piano but I don't give a damn if you're deaf [Music] hey tonight was wonderful you know I've never really been a fan of that kind of music but I am now I'm going to know what I was up to last week more laundry walking away come on no no I'm sorry though I should have said something well don't do that again what disappear I won't I absolutely won't so you learned that um deaf people can dance by feeling the vibrations through the floor it what doesn't it do you remember that guy on um Dancing with the Stars and he was stonee and a fabulous dancer so you know what that means right someone who is Stone deaf can play the piano I mean and there are new discoveries all the time I try to have home I really do come come here I learned something else the deaf are no different than anybody else they love to make her especially after a night of [Music] dancing can you feel the rhythm we're going to be about 10 minutes short yep maybe reprise putting on the rits I could show off again no no we'll be okay hey guys I got to tell you something and my timing is probably lousy I knew it we're all fired I knew it wait what you're ending the trio and this is our farewell gig no no stop it no absolutely not no okay you get so so wound Sean well then what um okay Catherine said I just have to tell you um I am I'm going deaf quickly and uh one of these days I won't hear you at all oh my God so is this why you don't hear our questions sometimes a lot of the time I told you she wasn't just ignoring us Sam I'm so sorry you almost feel sad and devastated yeah but um I am learning to accept it and I'm going to start going to support groups to learn how to deal with it so the trio can still go on I mean you could play blindfolded and we're here to make it as easy as can be for you yeah I don't know what's going to happen with the trio especially if I can't hear what I'm playing well that explains your withdrawal I mean I thought you just fell in love and that's where all your attention went by the way Abigail is adorable I agree and pretty and sexy she's got a great taste in music I'm not even gay and I have a little crush on her uh I totally get it I
