How are you feeling?

- Forget about me.

How's my baby?

- He's alright, but looks like

you've lost a lotta blood.

Ancl the baby's

heart rate is low.

He's in distress.

- Is he gonna be okay?

- We're inducing labor

to save your son's life.

- No, no, no.

He's not ready.

- [Doctor] You have to be calm.

- What if he doesn't make it?

You're the strongest

person I know.

Need you to take a breath.

- Breathe, breathe deep.

Please, please.

Again, in out, now push.

Push hard.

heart rate is low.

- You're doing great, yo

One more breath, one more

breath and push hard.

- Here you go.

- Welcome to the world.

Christopher Neron Dunn.

- Neron?

Neron.

- Hey, made you smile.

He likes it.

- Well I guess if

he doesn't like it

he can change it

when he's older.

- I think he sounds

like a linebacker.

Somebody you don't

wanna mess with.

Helookstough.

He's definitely gonna

be a linebacker.

- I think you stole

mommy's brain cells.

Yes you did.

- Nuh uh.

- Congratulations new mom.

How's the new mom feeling?

- Hey, how 'bout the new clad?

- The new clad doesn't

have a vagina,

so I'm sure he's

feeling pretty perky.

' Uatlghs) Yeah.

- Okay, she's a bad

influence on the baby.

- Move.

- I'll take that.

- Oh he is so precious.

Ancl of course is my

luck, my car broke down

so I had to take a cab.

- Oh Tara you didn't

have to do that.

- Yes, I did.

So you finally have

your little prince.

I Um hmmm

Ancl I better make

the most of him.

Doctor says I

can't have another.

- But, no, Allison,

you can adopt one.

- Yeah.

- Listen, I envy you.

You are a strong

woman, a kick ass wife.

Ancl the 2nd most

beautiful woman under me.

(all chuckling)

So no more sob stories.

Qkay.

- You have a beautiful

boy and husband.

So bask in it.

It only comes once.

- [Ali] I love you.

- I know you do, everybody does.

I:

So I can't stay long.

I have to head home here soon.

Qkay.

Well you need Kevin

to give you a ride?

- If you don't mind.

Are you sure you'd be

okay here by yourself?

- Yeah, of course.

Why wouldn't I be?

- So, you think I'm

beautiful huh? (laughs)

(scoffs)

- Don't let it get to your head.

I swear if Neron has your

ego, the world is screwed.

- [Kevin] Yeah well.

- So beautiful.

(laughs)

Thanks for the ride beautiful.

- Third time's a charm.

(laughs)

- I swear your son is

gonna be a mess of trouble.

(sighs) My God are you serious?

- [Kevin] What's wrong?

- Dammit.

Oh my God are you serious?

Dammit.

I dropped my keys in the cab.

(sighs)

- Got a bobby pin?

- I don't know.

- That'll work.

- Do you even know

what you're doing?

- I'd like to think so.

(Tara laughs)

I used to break

into Allison's dorm

so she wouldn't get

caught coming in late.

Tada.

- Well look at you.

- Yep, my ill spent

youth pays off.

- I know this is no dorm,

but I at least owe you

another cup of coffee.

(unsettling tones)

(startling tone)

- So you live here

by yourself, right?

- Uh, yeah, about four years.

Coffee should be ready

in just a minute.

You know Ali is really lucky.

She has a new baby and you.

A complete family.

- I'm sorry.

check my medicine cabinet.

(startling tone)

(gasps)

Sh*t!

Oh my God.

You scared the

living crap outta me.

Um, what do you

take for headaches?

- I don't know, what do you got?

Ali does this weird

massage thing.

Something she picked up from

one of those doctor shows.

It's strange but

it actually works.

- Um well, Ali isn't

here, so you're just gonna

have to settle for aspirin.

- Ah, that stuff doesn't

settle well with my stomach.

No biggie.

I'll just head back.

Try to sleep it off.

- No.

No, you're not driving

feeling that way.

Come here.

Sit.

- I'm serious.

I don't do well with aspirin.

- You made that

clear the first time.

(unsettling music)

- You're gonna

get me in trouble.

- Too late.

(Tara snickers)

Are you okay?

I'm gonna go get

a cup of coffee.

- I gotta get going-

Gotta check in on Ali.

(suspenseful music)

" Becky!

- Oh, Doctor Jones?

I'm fine.

- Hey-

- I think Neron is hungry.

Do you think I should

give him his milk?

- Yeah, yeah there's a

bottle in the fridge.

MY angel.

(sighs)

' Ma.

am?

Ma'am, may I ask you

a personal question?

- [Ali] Yeah, sure.

- Did you have a natural

delivery when you had him?

- Yeah.

Why, what's wrong?

- Nothing, it's just,

it's just I just

never hear him cry.

Never.

- Well, Maria he's fine.

I mean when a child is born

they have to acclimate.

They're going through

a lot of changes,

their bodies, their

behavior patterns,

their sleeping patterns.

He's just adjusting.

- Did he hurt his head or

neck when he was in delivery?

- No.

Why would you say that?

What's wrong with his head?

He's fine.

- Nothing, it's

just that in Mexico,

when a kid is born

before his or her time,

it's not a good thing.

- Maria, we live in America.

Okay, you live in America

and I don't mean

this to sound rude,

but, we don't have those

superstitions in this country.

Okay?

- I understand.

- Good.

Now Kevin and I are
