Speechless–Season 2 Finale (N-O–Nominee)
The episode kicks off with JJ finding out his horror film has been nominated for an award at two film festivals—one in Orange County and one in Vancouver. JJ decides to go to Vancouver and take Maya with him. They all hope that his film wins, but JJ feels like he already won as he has been nominated for his work not because of his disability.
When Maya and JJ travel to Vancouver, they realise that JJ was nominated because of his disability, and while other nominees embrace the tokenism due to the prize money, JJ and Maya leave. However JJ is disappointed even further when Maya reveals she sent letters out to the film festivals to demand that they nominate his film for the awards.
