After the season 4 finale of "Switched at Birth", the fans have been worried about the shocking news that Bay (Vanessa Marano) and Daphne (Katie Leclerc) received in China. There is no update on that, but at least the names of the first two episodes of "Switched at Birth" are out now.
It has been known for a while now that season 5 episode 1 will be titled "The Call" and that it will premiere in 2016. The new season will definitely not follow the trend that seasons 2, 3 and 3 set by premiering in January; instead, season 5 episode 1 will be aired in April 2016. It would mark the debut of "Switched at Birth" in Freeform TV, which is the new name for ABC Family.
Following the announcement of the air month, "Switched at Birth" creator Lizzy Weiss posted the title of season 5 episode 2 with a photo on Twitter. Along with the episode name, "This has to do with Me", the photo also revealed that it has been written by William H Brown and Liz Scuzudlo, and that DW Moffett aka Jon Kennish from the show will direct the episode.
