Okay, alright, see ya.

Jackie...

Well, what do you know?!

Oh, it's so good to see you!

- Yes! Oh, my gosh.

- I missed you.

Oh, my goodness.

Hello!

Hello?!

Brian?

Bri?

Did she see us?

Hey, there are my girls.

Hi, baby. Hi, you.

Did you have a good time?

- What happened?

- Grammy Donna helped us build

sand castles at the beach.

- No way!

- It was fun!

- Aw.

- These two are such angels.

- I couldn't have had

a better time.

I'm so glad

you had a good time.

Give me just one second.

Be right back, girls.

Okay.

- Yeah.

- Can we talk? I'm alone.

Oh.

I am so sorry.

I got home early

and I came out here.

I heard the music, I wasn't

snooping or anything.

But then I came to the

window and I looked in

and I kind of freaked out.

- I'm sorry.

- Wait, why? 'Cause it was a woman?

No, I thought it was-

oh, god, you didn't

think it was Brian?

Oh, honey, I would never.

I love you.

- I know.

- No.

I know, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

- I just...

- So who was she?

Oh, she's just

someone from work.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, anything serious?

Oh, no. No, I don't have

that luxury after my ex.

- And that goes for men, too.

- Yeah.

You jealous? I'm joking.

Just close the

window next time.

Yes, I will, sorry.

Good evening, doctor.

What's this?

I just, I love you,

that's all.

- Oh, you love me?

- Yes.

You mean we're actually,

we're actually-

everyone's asleep.

- Mom's asleep, kids are asleep?

- Yes.

Yay!

Hi.

How are you?

I'm good.

You look fabulous.

What, did you bring the

whole damn gym down here?

I would if I could.

Let me make you

a little more cozy.

Thanks, honey.

Okay. Angela knows

about us doesn't she?

That's what you think

i wanted to tell you?

- No, she has no idea.

- Okay, good.

Then what is it?

Okay, Angela wants

to tell you herself,

- so play dumb, okay.

- Okay.

Angela and Brian are

gonna try for another kid.

What, why would she put

herself through that again?

She's not.

See, she has one embryo left.

From the same egg donor

they used with Cora?

Yes. But she's not gonna risk

carrying it this time.

- They're gonna use a surrogate.

- Oh.

Not a stranger,

someone they trust.

Wait, they're gonna ask me?

- No silly, me.

- Oh.

It really is just such an honor.

Yeah.

Don't you have, like,

two miles to swim?

Three, actually,

but who's counting?

Hey, are you okay with this?

Yeah, no, of course.

I mean, it's not my business

or my body, I mean...

No, I think

it's an amazing idea.

Can you hurry up

and go for this swim

so we can go get some breakfast?

Okay?

Wh... what are you doing?

You're gonna freeze.

You don't want me

to do it, do you?

Look, I'll tell them no.

They'll understand.

Katie, baby, you're scaring me.

- I'm the donor.

- What?

They're my eggs,

they're my babies.

What? No.

That's impossible.

Cora is mine.

And the baby that they

want you to carry is mine, too.

You have a baby, maddie.

From my egg,

but I didn't carry her.

A lady in Maine did.

She said she wanted a baby

more than anything but she lied.

I had to take her back.

They let you take their baby?

No.

Are you planning

on taking Cora, too?

Angela said that she

would never go back to work.

If I wasn't there, who would

be taking care of Cora?

A complete stranger.

You're sick.

Baby you need, help.

No.

I'm sorry, Linda.

Mama, look what I can do.

Why don't you come show me,

come on.

Do it on the grass, good girl.

Yay!

Do you like mommy's belly?

- Yeah.

- Yeah?

Here's what I still don't get.

Hmm?

You spend a year searching

for the perfect donor

and you find someone that's

anonymous and perfect,

but when you start looking

for a surrogate,

you ask the runaway

in your guest house.

Linda's girlfriend, no less.

- What are you talking about?

- Oh, come on. It's so obvious.

Katie's been an

incredible friend.

And she has signed

every single document

we've put in front of her.

I mean, she's been great.

She... she... she nursed me

through my miscarriage

and, you know,

she was really amazing to me

when Linda got killed

in that boating accident.

Mm-hmm. I know, honey,

i understand, it's great.

Katie's a strong

shoulder to lean on.

She's even a wonderful nurse.

But tell me this,

what does she get out of it?

$40,000, and the fact

that she's helping out a friend.

Listen, I'm happy she's here.

It's good to keep an eye on her

when she's carrying my child.

Yeah, but what are you gonna do

after she gives birth?

You better kick her out or that's

gonna be one confused kid. Really.

What if Katie bonds with it

and doesn't wanna give it up?

Will Katie have

visitation rights?

Well...

Have you thought

any of this through?

Yes, yes, of course.

We've talked about it.

You know, honestly we don't

know all the answers now.

It's not a

black and white situation.

But we're figuring it out.

- Alright, look-

- you know what, Donna.

- No, wait-

- please, please, please.

Can I... I can't...

I gotta get Cora to go.

- Okay. - Girls, did you wanna come

on up so we can do that thing?

- Sorry.

- It's okay, no problem, sweetheart.

I got it.

You sit here, enjoy.

Isn't it a little early

in the day to be drinking?

It's four o'clock,

it's happy hour.

You know, whatever my said,

she can't help it.

Just ignore her.

She thinks Katie's

gonna screw us over.

- I'll talk to her.

- Are you worried?

If our lawyer isn't, I'm not.

She's very

beautiful isn't she?

- Who? My mom?

- Ha-ha, Katie.

Hideous.

Your mother thinks she

was sleeping with Linda.

My mom thinks Katie

was sleeping with Linda?

Yes, that she was the one

in the guest house that time.

Do you believe her?

Let's go to the swing!

Oh, okay.

Look, there are

your friends, go play.

- How far along are you?

- Oh, four months.

Boy or a girl?

I do not know,

i find out tomorrow.

- I have the amnio test.

- Oh, good luck.

I fainted during mine.

I should have sued.

- How old are your girls?

- Almost four, both of them.

Twins, wow! Can't imagine.

They're beautiful,

they look just like you.

Thank you.

Yeah, I get that all the time.

- Mama!

- Hi, baby.

Oh, how's my big girl?

Oh, I missed you so much.

Did you have a good day,

sweetie?

- Yeah?

- Let's go, maddie.

Hey, guess what?

The animal show's on.

- Yay!

- You relax, I'll take them.

No, I got it.

I want you to do it, Katie.

Oh she's used to me.

Okay, girls let's go!

Woo-hoo!

Patterson.

Patterson.

Why are we doing this again?

To make sure the fetus has

no chromosome abnormalities.

I know, but, isn't that

for women over 35?

Yeah, usually.

But this isn't about your body,

it's about the egg.

So it has nothing

to do with me?

That's not what I meant.

They're gonna stick a

needle right into my uterus

where my baby is sleeping.

Your baby?

That's not what I meant.

Morgan.

Put your feet up.

Very good.

Looking good.

Alright now.

You might feel a little twinge,

a little cramping.

But that's okay.

We expect that.
