AWARD-WINNING "WHAT WOULD YOU DO?" AIRS FRIDAY, JUNE 26 AT 9:00 P.M. ET ON ABC

When People See a Situation that Cries Out for Action, Do They Step Up and Say Something or Step Away?

When you think no one is watching... what would you do? Using hidden cameras, "What Would You Do?" establishes everyday scenarios and then captures people's reactions. Whether people are compelled to act or mind their own business, John Qui�ones reports on their split-second and often surprising decision-making process. "WHAT WOULD YOU DO?" airs FRIDAY, JUNE 26 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET) on ABC.

Friday, June 26 scenarios include:

· Thanks in part to Caitlyn Jenner and Laverne Cox, we are hearing more about those who are transgender than we ever have before. From reports and interviews, we have learned that many who are transgender identify being in the "wrong body" at a young age. "What Would You Do?" is at a hair salon where a young girl tells her mother that she wants her hair cut short because she feels like a boy on the inside. How will bystanders react?

· A mom coaches her clearly musically gifted son through playing the guitar, yet nothing the child does is good enough. How will bystanders react?

· A couple plans a romantic dinner at a nice restaurant but they instead encounter an overly flirtatious server. The server is an actor as is the target of the server's affection. What response will this flirting illicit from the target's significant other? "What Would You Do?" hidden cameras will be rolling while we test one of the most basic human instincts - jealousy.

· Three teenage girls come into an ice cream shop together and one is a little bigger than the other two. The thinner two criticize their "friend" and tell her she really should order low-fat frozen yogurt because if she wants to continue hanging out with them she better not get any fatter. How will other customers react?

"What Would You Do?" has won awards from the Chicago International Television Festival and the Avon Foundation's 2006 Voice of Change award for exposing "injustice and wrongdoing against women and bring the issue of domestic violence to the mainstream."

Danielle Rossen is executive producer of "What Would You Do?"
