Sometimes you need an opinion from outside the box. People really forget this was 1920-1930's. The mental deficiency was probably diagnosed by a good doctor. Jimmy is a ww1 survivor. He has seen all kinds of injury/disability. Being blind or deaf was extremely common in ww1 because of mustard gas. Jimmy figured it out quick only because of that (he spent 8 months in hospital from a german frag). Capone was too busy building an empire and was never wounded in the war.

I was thinking the same exact thing. All those artillery shells guys were probably going deaf left and right. I wouldn't be surprised if Jimmy did that same snap test to a couple of his friends.
But i thought when Jimmy first met Al they talked about the platoons or squads they had served in during the war? Maybe i'm mis remembering but i thought they both had come back from he war.
My great great father found out my grandma was deaf in one ear when she was three . She wouldn't react when she was called . So he came to her and placed his pocket watch next to each of ther ears and asked her if she could hear the ticking . He was a farmer and it was the 20's, she could just have been yelled at and punished . i'm so glad she had a gentle and smart dad
@@aliciatargaryen Yes . i have. But nowadays beating and abusing children is illegal and condemned by society. Isn t it a big difference ?Now we are also a lot more aware of children s development, proper pedagogy and care.

@@lsixty30 Its a proven fact that psychopaths and people with aggression don't just conjure up these feelings for nothing. They go through experiences that nobody looks out for them with and in turn transforms them into better or worse. They have a compassion for animals because they are natural and cannot speak for themselves. You can be the world's biggest jerk and still hate bullies.
Capone treated his son like royalty after that. Probably had to do with the guilt of treating your disabled son like he’s some kind of dumbass. Edit: everyone seems to be misunderstanding my comment. I am not calling his son a dumbass, I am saying that all Capone was acting ignorantly because he was genuinely unaware of his son’s disability and treated him lesser for it, but once he realized what he was doing and the extent of the situation, he changed his behavior for the better. As I said to someone in the comments, “I’m literally referencing what happened in the show. I’m not being ‘ignorant’ or making some sort of insensitive statement at all. Capone had a deaf son, he didn’t know he was deaf, but when he and his wife found out he was deaf, they did everything in their power to provide all the specialized education and support needed for a child with that issue. They were good parents and supported their son.” I’m genuinely shocked I have to break this down but some people need an explanation.
@/U/ It's not considered insult 😂 BUT being Undesirable in society 😅😢 No worrys the very same things goes on in many black communities I should know..😑💫
I agree but also knowing when it is appropriate to show compassion and when it is not appropriate is a skill 99.9 percent of parents have lost and that is why everyone is so rude and disrespectful to each other now.
@@vibeofthee80s_ Yeah, from what I heard. He treated him like royalty after realizing he was wrong, again, I haven’t watched the show, but this is what I saw.
@@vibeofthee80s_ Yeah he did and he was a much better dad after. Honestly, really loved his character for that because you really wouldn't have expected it. I like to think he kept a soft spot for Jimmy because of this moment.
That scene in a later season, when Capone is talking to his son, (and he’s completely changed towards him. One he he realizes his poor fathering in not noticing the deafness, he becomes a great father) it almost brought me to tears.
@@ozmondyea although the show was loosely based on Al Capone and his son was partially deaf from birth in real life. How do people so confidently say the dumbest shit ever with such determination too make someone else look dumb. I'll never understand it.
Intelligent people don't notice also. Deaf children cope with hearing loss fairly well and can be intelligent and normal like when they are vigilant. I know of a boy treated for autism for the first 7 years of his life when his teacher discovered he was 'just deaf'. His parents were a law professor and a physician. As Gump's mother said, "stupid is as stupid does."
The acting is just supreme. That look Al gives, realizing his mistake, the instant regret and deep pain in his relatively cold heart, Jimmy's look of total understanding and sorrow for the man's pain and the child's future.
Jimmy understood it was just a mistake but it was a big one that didn't need to be rubbed in. He had seen plenty of guys treated poorly for going deaf during war so to see it in someone's home must be heartbreaking.
My mom used to call me retarded, I didn’t hear her saying it that well until 4 years later when my dad got me to the doctor and had to have surgery releasing fluids trapped behind my ear drums floating around in my head. I can hear her now and choose not too. 😂
@@smarkmalarkthat's exactly her point. In a silent world with only visual abuse from his father. Pretty lonely to go through developmental years not diagnosed.
It's not that Capone was stupid it's that every parent prays/wishes/begs that their kid is normal so it's a big shock to find out your kid is deaf/blind/slow or different. But i can tell you that finding out his son is deaf changed him
Still happens, tragically. Worked with a girl who was diagnosed as autistic and nonverbal. She used a simple sheet of pictures to communicate because they believed that was all she was cognitively capable of. She was 17 when they tested her hearing. 17 when her family and caretakers learned she was deaf and capable of learning and understanding sign language...watching her personality rapidly develop as she gained communicative skills was incredible. Tragic they never screened her or considered it before then
@@learningcanbefun628 I think even that approval requirement is insane because of cases like this...what a disservice to do a child to deny them a life of communication a simple test could assist with
Dude that's bizarre...I was positive my kid was on the spectrum (also nonverbal) and they just kept sending us for hearing tests...like hello, she can hear, she responds to sound...can we check something else now??? I'm so glad your friend/coworker was able to discover her full potential!
@@Tiabliaj1989 Oh, that's so interesting to hear about the opposite side of the issue! Glad they were able to properly test your child but sorry they kept doubling back 😂 How strange!
This was a great duo. Great chemistry between the two. I miss boardwalk empire. Amazing series. This is the last series to catch me by surprise with its ending. No series since then has made me yell out, “Oh shît!” at the end.
Can we just appreciate Stephen Graham as an actor for just a minute. For an Englishman to voice an italian American, switch seamlessly into Italian is impressive. Very underrated actor.
Yea you could tell instantly that the show sucks ass because a whole family taking a fucking decade to realize the kid is deaf is the dumbest thing I've ever heard
It's wild to think that back in the day, u couldn't tell if ur child was Deaf until they were almost 5 years old... the whole time u think he's mentally disabled, until u realize he can't hear... that's gotta be fucked up
After this he treated his son different. In the show two of the most touching and beautiful scenes come from Capone and his son. Capone is worried about his son being too soft. He goes up to his son and is yelling at him to put his hands up! ( like when fighting ) Capone has his hands up in a fighting gesture covering his face and his son reads his lips or just understands to put his hands up bc his dad is doing so but he lifts his hands in a different way just normally lifts his hands. Capone fixes his hands in a fighting position and grabs his head and just looks at him. His son is crying then Capone breaks down and hugs his son and cries with him. It’s years later Capone has a court date. He walks up to his sons room to tell him to listen and take care of his mother. He explains to his son that he did a lot of bad things and he has to pay for his crimes. He lets his son know that all he did was so that his son and his mother could live a better life. Capone gets off the bed to walk away. Capone’s son talks! He says “Dad .. dad..!” Yes he is yelling and he sounds like how some deaf people sound. Capone turns around with tears in his eyes and his son puts up his hands in the fighting position! Letting his dad know to stay strong! I loved those scenes
Um, yeah, Thanks for making me cry!?😢 Trust me when I tell you, you sure can write! Um, so like, yeah, I hope you put that to good use. Writing and getting ppl emotional will make ppl obsessed with you. You're an awesome writer. ❤Keep it up, love.👍
@@mazezace thank you so much!!! I was very good at writing things in high school! I graduated in 2019! I haven’t wrote/typed anything like this since HS. Only thing I’ve typed is the everyday text msg😂. I was worried what I was typing wasn’t going to make any sense. I finished the show a couple of weeks ago so trying to type out those touching, beautiful scenes is very tough. Talking about the scenes from just memory and trying to explain the amazing writing of the show and specifically Capone and his son’s heart touching scenes is very hard. Not even considering my ADHD on top of it all. I’m very happy & SHOCKED you and so many other people liked my comment! Means a lot what you said!!
@@Learn.The.Hardway I had just finished the show couple weeks ago and when I watched this short I instantly thought of those scenes! I was worried what I was typing made no sense because of my ADHD, plus trying to explain these beautiful heart touching scenes isn’t the easiest thing to do either off just memory. But you should watch those scenes! What I typed out is nothing compared to those beautiful, heart touching scenes of Capone and his son.

Check with your doctor about magnesium minerals, enzymes and proper gut health which involves digestion and absorbion of the nutrients our body needs. It will help collect all your thoughts.
When I saw this series back in the day, I thought he knew about his son as well. I think he was all about displaying strength, and he was embarrassed about his son situation. At this point in the show, Capone was like the henchman, and he was treated like the immature kid, always making jokes to his bosses.
I was seven years old before anyone realized that I was severely nearsighted… It wasn’t until my second grade teacher realized other kids could see things across the room that I couldn’t see. Every time I see a little baby with those tiny little eye glasses on, I smile contentedly.❤
I was in 8th grade before I got glasses. I am so bad I can't see anything past my nose but my mom told me as a kid that sitting too close to the TV would ruin my eyes so I was always afraid of telling her that I was blind 😅
It wasn't untill I was in 6th grade that I found out that I was near sighted. Sad thing was I only found out because a teacher bullied me. She would make me sit after her class (which would make me late or even miss my next class) infront of the next class of children, and harass me about my grades, and telling me I was stupid to the point where id break down and cry. Then she would send me on to my next class. Anyway she asked me why I'm always mean mugging her, and I realised she took me squinting, and trying to read the board as me trying to intimidate her. Told her I couldn't see the board, and then she started to harass me about why I don't sit at the front. It wasn't untill a few years later they found out she was bipolar.
This actually happened to my dad - they tried to put him into the special class when he first went to school. Turned out he just couldn’t hear 😩 thank goodness a teacher at his school realized. Now he works on giant commercial HVAC systems. He’s one of the most intelligent people I know.
It shows how little attention we pay to the people around us.. even our own family & friends. If people took genuine interest we’d realize so many things sooner. It’s like most of us are on a kind of self centered autopilot. Even towards the ones we supposedly care about the most… I wonder why
What hit me here was that Capone was an asshole about everything and to everyone else here, but got down to help clean up the mess in the first place lol
@@Firebourn94 yeah now imagine if you just treated your son like an absolute moron and openly insulted him to everybody, with it taking somebody else having to point out that he might just have different needs and isn't stupid. That's what's heartbreaking, not that his son is deaf
That look at the snap was the moment capone had realized he was wrong about his son, also realizing the man at the table gave him direct eye contact instead of calling him out for the bad treatment of his son for clearly being deaf but he was blinded by the life and anger.. honestly shows a lot between friends
@@ms.t3655 Who says he treats him like crap. He provides everything he needs and then some. Capone family lived lavishly they were Rich. Because of him. Alpha's can't be with their kids a lot of time when they are younger. It's only when the kid is older that he can learn from his father. That's why it's up to the mother to take the burden until a child becomes older usually around 10 or 11.
@FixMyPC He called his son a bumbbell, the mother a pig, the wife a mick whatever that is. Idk what type of parenting you believe is good for that type of abuse but ok.
The face of realization and the regret of calling his son those names all in one. The other guy proves it right away and sees it shows how much he really payed attention to his own blood.
The thing I remember most about this scene was Al's horror upon realising; not at his own abuse of the kid up to that point, but about how difficult life was going to be for him. It seemed to straight chill him, like it was a terminal diagnosis or something. And then ofc he got over it, & started just supporting him in any way he could, but I'll always remember how his blood ran cold at first.
Al already was aware of his son being deaf, he was putting up a front for Jimmy. In those times you were considered to have weak genes when your offspring turned out disabled. Him looking up at Jimmy was him realizing that Jimmy put the picture together and that Al’s family secret was out.
@TheHamilverse That wasn't how it felt to me, but I guess that's the joy of subtext- it's open to different interpretations, & yours is as valid as mine.
@@mysterylovescompany2657 absolutely didn’t mean to come off as rude, everyone is 100% entitled to their own interpretation. Regardless we can both agree it’s an amazing scene! 😊
@@thehamilverse8433because your explanation makes sense. There's a comment I just read were someone says "Al Capone been living with this kid for HOW LONG, and this guy comes over for dinner ONE NIGHT and figures it out?" It makes sense that Al Capone was lying and trying to hide the fact his kid was deaf, because he saw it as a negative reflection of himself. Ahh the old days.
It’s very tragic how many parents find out their kids are deaf by this way. First the loud noise and then you realize he wasn’t ignoring you he never even heard you. And all it took was a pot to fall down.
First time I ever saw my father cry was when he found out I was hard of hearing and then he had to sit with all the times he punished me for not listening
We adopted a girl from foster care at 18 months and learned sign language only to learn when she was 3 that she could hear. She was just traumatized into always being silent Edit: By “we”, I meant my family. I was only 11, please don’t give me credit for being a selfless person, that I don’t deserve. She became my sister and we fuss like any other siblings. We even still use ASL to silently swear at each other when our parents aren’t looking and it’s been over 30 years of our “nonsense” as mother puts it. A saint, I am NOT, but I do love that little honey badger😆
@@ladyfame1430 ❤️! This was in the early 90’s. Silver lining: we all learned ASL and one of my best friends as an adult has only one child and she was born with only one ear. She uses a Baja, and is my heart! The universe is funny, sometimes, isn’t it my friend? Many blessings to you and those you hold dear❤️
I know this is “Hollywoodized” for TV, but I love Al and Jimmy’s relationship. He was one of the very few people Al was actually friends with. He kinda let up his guard with James.
Cuz they both were in the trenches , soldiers understand soldiers . Both had shell shock , that's why capone and Jimmy did what they did . Theu both felt they died in France
This happened to me as a kid. I went to 5 different preschools, and they all recommended me to go somewhere else because they thought I "suffered from mental retardation". It wasn't til kindergarten, KINDERGARTEN, that my teacher pointed out that I was hard of hearing. Next thing you know, my mother quits her job because she is told that there is a possibility of me being deaf and she wanted to be with me full time if that were the case. I still vividly remember that day when the doctor pulled about an inch of wax, one line, from my ears. The first thing I remember hearing was a gasp followed by crying from my mother. They put tubes in my ears and I was fine from then on.
I also lost interest to the show until i heard that the actor who played Jimmy was hard to work with. Didnt remember his lines and wasnt really payin attention.

But i thought when Jimmy first met Al they talked about the platoons or squads they had served in during the war? Maybe i'm mis remembering but i thought they both had come back from he war.
That's the problem with these shorts. I was like "what the hell?" Totally confused by the significance of his snaps.
He played the part to perfection, the look on his face when he realises that he's been wrong the whole time.
My great great father found out my grandma was deaf in one ear when she was three . She wouldn't react when she was called . So he came to her and placed his pocket watch next to each of ther ears and asked her if she could hear the ticking . He was a farmer and it was the 20's, she could just have been yelled at and punished . i'm so glad she had a gentle and smart dad
I guess that explains that you paint people in the 20s terrible. People yell at their children and punish them nowadays if you haven’t realized
@@aliciatargaryen Yes . i have. But nowadays beating and abusing children is illegal and condemned by society. Isn t it a big difference ?Now we are also a lot more aware of children s development, proper pedagogy and care. I don t need to go on but being treated poorly as a child was more common in the past and it was seen as a private family matter, which is not the case anymore.
@@aliciatargaryen Also I just pointed out how my uneducated great grand father was kind and smart so i m not sure how i "painted people in the 20's terrible " lol
@@maleg4042 and yet children are still abused, killed by their own parents, abandoned. The laws and advancements we’ve done didn’t change that.
Edit: love how you mention your great grandfather was “uneducated” and yet knew better whereas we are “educated” and still has no change.
@@aliciatargaryen i don t have anymore time for this love. This exchange is dumb and you made it so. Congrats
After that he treated his son a lot better
Yeah I loved the scene before Capone has to go away, and his son is telling him to keep fighting.
The real Al Capone HATED bullies.
So to keep disrespecting his son afterwards would've been shitty.
@@CharlieSheensTigerBlood really? the murderer hated bullies? the guy shooting people... hated bullies....?
@@lsixty30 well it's not classy
@@lsixty30 Its a proven fact that psychopaths and people with aggression don't just conjure up these feelings for nothing.
They go through experiences that nobody looks out for them with and in turn transforms them into better or worse.
They have a compassion for animals because they are natural and cannot speak for themselves.
You can be the world's biggest jerk and still hate bullies.
Capone treated his son like royalty after that. Probably had to do with the guilt of treating your disabled son like he’s some kind of dumbass.
Edit: everyone seems to be misunderstanding my comment. I am not calling his son a dumbass, I am saying that all Capone was acting ignorantly because he was genuinely unaware of his son’s disability and treated him lesser for it, but once he realized what he was doing and the extent of the situation, he changed his behavior for the better. As I said to someone in the comments, “I’m literally referencing what happened in the show. I’m not being ‘ignorant’ or making some sort of insensitive statement at all. Capone had a deaf son, he didn’t know he was deaf, but when he and his wife found out he was deaf, they did everything in their power to provide all the specialized education and support needed for a child with that issue. They were good parents and supported their son.” I’m genuinely shocked I have to break this down but some people need an explanation.

Thank you
How dumb can you be to fail to realize that your son is deaf for years 😅
Intelligent people don't notice also. Deaf children cope with hearing loss fairly well and can be intelligent and normal like when they are vigilant. I know of a boy treated for autism for the first 7 years of his life when his teacher discovered he was 'just deaf'. His parents were a law professor and a physician. As Gump's mother said, "stupid is as stupid does."
It's called not taking an interest in your kids except as trophies.
Capone was tough with everyone; not a bone to mess with.
The acting is just supreme. That look Al gives, realizing his mistake, the instant regret and deep pain in his relatively cold heart, Jimmy's look of total understanding and sorrow for the man's pain and the child's future.
I don't know about the rest of the scene but Jimmy also allows Capone to save some face....By not saying something insulting. Excellently acted.
Relatively cold? He's a murderer
Jimmy understood it was just a mistake but it was a big one that didn't need to be rubbed in. He had seen plenty of guys treated poorly for going deaf during war so to see it in someone's home must be heartbreaking.
Its hes Syphilis mickys fault
it's a powerful scene
He looked him like "bro he ain't dumb, he is deaf. Get it?"
"My God, Tommy, you certainly got those minerals."
Awesome scene.
Its the look he gives Capone!!
My mom used to call me retarded, I didn’t hear her saying it that well until 4 years later when my dad got me to the doctor and had to have surgery releasing fluids trapped behind my ear drums floating around in my head. I can hear her now and choose not too. 😂

Funny having Capone call people stupid while his brain was rotting from syphilis.
Still happens, tragically. Worked with a girl who was diagnosed as autistic and nonverbal. She used a simple sheet of pictures to communicate because they believed that was all she was cognitively capable of. She was 17 when they tested her hearing. 17 when her family and caretakers learned she was deaf and capable of learning and understanding sign language...watching her personality rapidly develop as she gained communicative skills was incredible. Tragic they never screened her or considered it before then
sometimes people are really, really dumb
It’s mandatory now unless parents doesn’t approve exam.
@@learningcanbefun628 I think even that approval requirement is insane because of cases like this...what a disservice to do a child to deny them a life of communication a simple test could assist with
Dude that's bizarre...I was positive my kid was on the spectrum (also nonverbal) and they just kept sending us for hearing tests...like hello, she can hear, she responds to sound...can we check something else now??? I'm so glad your friend/coworker was able to discover her full potential!

This was back when HBO couldn’t miss.. iconic shows with some of the best acting and writing
After this he treated his son different. In the show two of the most touching and beautiful scenes come from Capone and his son. Capone is worried about his son being too soft. He goes up to his son and is yelling at him to put his hands up! ( like when fighting ) Capone has his hands up in a fighting gesture covering his face and his son reads his lips or just understands to put his hands up bc his dad is doing so but he lifts his hands in a different way just normally lifts his hands. Capone fixes his hands in a fighting position and grabs his head and just looks at him. His son is crying then Capone breaks down and hugs his son and cries with him. It’s years later Capone has a court date. He walks up to his sons room to tell him to listen and take care of his mother. He explains to his son that he did a lot of bad things and he has to pay for his crimes. He lets his son know that all he did was so that his son and his mother could live a better life. Capone gets off the bed to walk away. Capone’s son talks! He says “Dad .. dad..!” Yes he is yelling and he sounds like how some deaf people sound. Capone turns around with tears in his eyes and his son puts up his hands in the fighting position! Letting his dad know to stay strong! I loved those scenes
Man, I'm about to tear up reading this. A father's love may be hard, but the best metals are forged in flame.

He did know, he was just embarrassed. Later on he explained he would play the mandolin and sing with his sons hands on his throat to feel the singing
The my buddy song. 😊
He didn't want to let on because I heard syphilis can lead to becoming deaf
Na, that takes place later. Namely after this point he realizes his son is deaf
When I saw this series back in the day, I thought he knew about his son as well. I think he was all about displaying strength, and he was embarrassed about his son situation. At this point in the show, Capone was like the henchman, and he was treated like the immature kid, always making jokes to his bosses.
finally someone who pays attention
Hilarious that he sounds scouse when he talks Italian 😂
For the record he knew he couldn’t hear he was ashamed and tried to hide it that’s why he looked at Jimmy like that cause he found out his secret
His face spoke enough when he realized his son was deaf
My fav thing about this is how Capone looks after his son once he learns
When capone sings to his son always gets to me
I was seven years old before anyone realized that I was severely nearsighted… It wasn’t until my second grade teacher realized other kids could see things across the room that I couldn’t see. Every time I see a little baby with those tiny little eye glasses on, I smile contentedly.❤
Same
My little cousin experienced exactly the same thing. I am surprised that this happens to so many people.
I was in 8th grade before I got glasses. I am so bad I can't see anything past my nose but my mom told me as a kid that sitting too close to the TV would ruin my eyes so I was always afraid of telling her that I was blind 😅
It wasn't untill I was in 6th grade that I found out that I was near sighted. Sad thing was I only found out because a teacher bullied me. She would make me sit after her class (which would make me late or even miss my next class) infront of the next class of children, and harass me about my grades, and telling me I was stupid to the point where id break down and cry. Then she would send me on to my next class. Anyway she asked me why I'm always mean mugging her, and I realised she took me squinting, and trying to read the board as me trying to intimidate her. Told her I couldn't see the board, and then she started to harass me about why I don't sit at the front. It wasn't untill a few years later they found out she was bipolar.
you too huh. boy was I glad I got those glasses
Capones relationship with his son was one of my favorite parts. To see a tender side of the man really made him human.
Yeah....the whole putting his hands on his throat so he could "feel" him sing to him was......I don't feel emotions often but that tugged at them.

You must not know many intelligent people
Just curious, how does he work such a job and cant hear anything? My dad also worked HVAC for 30years(RIP Dad).
This and the scene where Capone tries to teach his son how to defend himself in school against bullies. Such a loving father after this scene...❤️🩹

@@Firebourn94 yeah now imagine if you just treated your son like an absolute moron and openly insulted him to everybody, with it taking somebody else having to point out that he might just have different needs and isn't stupid. That's what's heartbreaking, not that his son is deaf

@@cloudypac yes.
That look at the snap was the moment capone had realized he was wrong about his son, also realizing the man at the table gave him direct eye contact instead of calling him out for the bad treatment of his son for clearly being deaf but he was blinded by the life and anger.. honestly shows a lot between friends
Having to explain to someone that his son is deaf must be a difficult experience
You can listen to parents and tell that they don't spend time with their children.
Also this is the moment where Capone sacks up and becomes the most loving father in the show.
That's because Capone is out there building an Empire for his son and family to benefit from and live comfortably. You can't do both. Capone is Alpha.
@@fixmypc3798 A alpha that treats his own offspring like crap, even the mother and staff didn't know the boy was deaf.
@@ms.t3655 Who says he treats him like crap. He provides everything he needs and then some. Capone family lived lavishly they were Rich. Because of him. Alpha's can't be with their kids a lot of time when they are younger. It's only when the kid is older that he can learn from his father. That's why it's up to the mother to take the burden until a child becomes older usually around 10 or 11.
@FixMyPC He called his son a bumbbell, the mother a pig, the wife a mick whatever that is. Idk what type of parenting you believe is good for that type of abuse but ok.
The face of realization and the regret of calling his son those names all in one. The other guy proves it right away and sees it shows how much he really payed attention to his own blood.
I don’t think he felt regret, he probably just realized how wrong he was the whole time when the other guy easily figured it out
Capone's son was an expert marksman in his own right and used his father's pistols at competition.
Best Capone actor 👍
What a actor Stephen graham is you can see the guilt immediately
He does guilty stress so well.
He's now my fav to portray Capone to date. 💯
The thing I remember most about this scene was Al's horror upon realising; not at his own abuse of the kid up to that point, but about how difficult life was going to be for him. It seemed to straight chill him, like it was a terminal diagnosis or something.
And then ofc he got over it, & started just supporting him in any way he could, but I'll always remember how his blood ran cold at first.
Al already was aware of his son being deaf, he was putting up a front for Jimmy. In those times you were considered to have weak genes when your offspring turned out disabled. Him looking up at Jimmy was him realizing that Jimmy put the picture together and that Al’s family secret was out.
