Devil's Due Page #2

Synopsis: After a mysterious, lost night on their honeymoon, a newlywed couple finds themselves dealing with an earlier-than-planned pregnancy. While recording everything for posterity, the husband begins to notice odd behavior in his wife that they initially write off to nerves, but, as the months pass, it becomes evident that the dark changes to her body and mind have a much more sinister origin.

Ugh.

I'll get you some water.

We gotta get up

Welcome home,

Mrs. McCall.

(SAMANTHA LAUGHS)

(ZACH GRUNTS)

SAMANTHA:
Ugh.

ZACH:
Oh.

Suzie left the door open.

Great.

ZACH:
That's great.

SAMANTHA:
Oh.

Yay, home.

Ooh, presents.

Crate and Barrel,

Crate and Barrel.

ZACH:
I'll go get the bags.

All right.

We got the panini grill.

And that thing from Allison.

And what is this one?

ZACH:
Oh, I don't know.

Open it up.

Maw, do you want to open mm?

All right.

He doesn't care.

This is the juicer

that I wanted!

I'm gonna make so much stuff

with flax and probiotics...

and things with kale.

Kale?

Mmm.

(WHISPERING)

Kale... kale.

(KAREN LAUGHS)

SAMANTHA; Oh, Mav!

Oh, my God.

- SAMANTHA:
Look at him.

- KAREN:
Oh!

Hey, did you see the "Sold"

sign on the Anderson house?

For real? Maybe someone will

finally fix that place up.

KAREN:
I hope so.

It's terrible.

Your husband,

he can't grill for sh*t.

ZACH:
Sam, come on.

You're gonna miss it.

This will be awesome. Ready?

Just like we practiced.

Are you kidding me?

Come on, Maverick. No, no, no.

You're supposed to catch it.

SAMANTHA:
Zach.

Yeah?

ZACH:
Come on, ready?

Eye on the prize.

Yes, yes, yes!

SAMANTHA:
Zach.

What?

Can you turn that

off for one second?

Whoa.

What is that?

Uh...

(STAMMERS) it doesn't

make any sense.

I've taken the pill religiously.

I've never missed one ever.

ZACH:
Whoa, whoa, whoa...

You're pregnant?

Yes.

Oh, my God.

We're having a baby.

(CHUCKLES)

Holy sh*t!

(SHRIEKS) Oh, my God.

That's so amazing.

(LAUGHING)

I feel good about this office.

How about you?

I feel good.

Except that says three stages of

pregnancy, and there's four pictures.

Okay, so this isn't

a math office.

It's a doctor's office.

(CHUCKLES) I hope that

doctors can do math.

Well, the doctor didn't

make that sign, clearly.

Do you think the doctor made

the "Dirty Area" sign?

(BOTH CHUCKLING)

- Oh, hello.

- BOTH:
Hi.

Mr. and Mrs. McCall.

Hello, how are you?

I'm Zach.

I am Dr. Ludka.

Nice to finally meet.

Yes.

Hello, lucky lady.

Hi.

How are you doing?

I'm good, how are you?

Okay. You ready?

(INHALES DEEPLY)

Yeah.

Okay, this is gonna

be quick and painless.

ZACH:
Awesome.

(CHUCKLES)

Sorry.

"Awesome."

You know you get a copy

of the ultrasound, right?

Oh, yeah, I just, um...

This is his thing.

It's our thing.

It's our thing.

We just want to film a bunch of this

so he/she, whoever, can see it later.

It's for the baby.

Okay, sure.

Is it okay?

Oh, yeah, perfect.

Okay.

Make sure you get my good side.

- ZACH:
Done. Right there.

- SAMANTHA:
Both sides.

This is gonna be a little cold.

(ZACH CHUCKLES)

Mmm-hmm.

A little gooey, huh?

Yeah. Oh!

That's great.

Okay.

- DR. LUDKA:
Ah, there we go.

- ZACH:
Oh.

Can you see? There's your

uterus, right there.

And there's the heartbeat.

(DR. LUDKA CHUCKLES)

Huh, um...

ZACH:
What?

Oh, don't worry, I'm just

gonna make a few adjustments.

SAMANTHA:
Is it okay?

Uh...

Ah, there we go.

- So, you're about seven weeks along.

- ZACH:
Ooh.

And everything

looks really good.

ZACH:
Honeymoon baby.

(CHUCKLES)

The pill is about

99 percent effective,

but, occasionally, this happens.

Okay.

ZACH:
She winked at me.

I saw that.

Because I got good sperm.

(DR. LUDKA LAUGHS)

This is what you started. What?

It's good, strong sperm.

DR. LUDKA:
I'm gonna

prescribe vitamin B...
