I haven't watched the show, but that seems like an odd choice. Because I can think of ways for miscommunication to still happen and not have the characters look stupid for not thinking of alternative means of communicating or having her seem insensitive for not learning something (fingerspelling can be frustrating, yeah, but the letters are pretty simple to learn and there are some obvious/easy signs). I guess they could also just be really stubborn.

They have Mabel picking up a little ASL in later episodes, but the initial miscommunication still doesn't make sense and they let it go on too long. Yelling, "I don't know ASL!!!" once is understandable... and then a smart person who's very used to cellphones and texting would go, oh wait, DUH, and she and Theo would start texting back and forth instead of yelling and gesticulating. To do otherwise makes both characters look kind of dumb.
