Junior Page #4

Thank you. I enjoyed that very much.

I loved it. Let's do it again.

Good night.

Now, what is taking so long? They

lost it, I know. Why have a ticket?

What are you doing?

Come over here.

What are you doing?

Feel how soft my skin is.

It's time.

We're closing out the experiment.

Banes is sniffing around and

your hormones are out of control.

There's still a week left

until the trimester is over.

We have plenty of data.

The Lyndon guys are poised.

I don't want to risk

anything going wrong.

Come on.

What?

I can't help but wonder

what it would be like.

What what would be like?

To have my baby.

That's it. We're closing out

the experiment tonight. Now.

Get in the car. Come on.

"To have my baby".

"Feel how soft my skin is".

Where'd you go, to France

to get the car or something?

- I never realized how lonely I was.

- Get a dog!

What are you gloomy about?

Come on. The experiment worked.

With Moe

I tapered off the dosage gradually.

To aid his system with

the hormonal rebalancing.

You go cold turkey.

You may have a couple of rocky days, but

I don't want to risk any complications.

Just stop taking the Expectane.

The embryo will break down and be

reabsorbed naturally into your body.

Home sweet home.

I'll get all the data

over to the guys at Lyndon.

I'll be in touch with you as

soon as I hear anything, okay?

- If you have a reaction, call me.

- Sure.

I don't know if you're a boy or a girl

so I'll call you Junior.

What a surprise.

- How'd you know?

- We looked it up in your file.

Did you bake this?

- Did you bake this yourself?

- The ingredients mutated a bit.

Happy birthday, big guy.

You're sweating like a

racehorse. You all right?

It's hot in here.

- No, it's not.

- I'm really hot.

- What? You got a fever?

- I made the icing.

You think you're the first clown

who woke up one day and said:

"I'm bored. I think I'll have a kid."

I didn't say that. Why

are you being so negative?

Hello? Anybody home?

You're a guy.

This is totally against the natural

order. Guys do not have babies.

We leave that to women. That's

part of the beauty of being a guy.

Didn't your father ever

have this talk with you?

If you don't want to help,

say so. I don't need a lecture.

The hell you don't.

If you could feel for a minute

the sense of joy and connection

that carrying your baby

brings, you'd understand.

Listen to you. Have you lost

it completely? Now, come inside.

If I carry this baby to

term, it'll be a miracle.

I'd love, protect and nurture that

miracle with everything I have.

- Stop it!

- No! I want my baby!

Sorry, I'm late.

We'll just be a couple

minutes, then I'm ready.

Your ex-wife's inside.

You're late for her appointment.

- Hello, Dr. Hesse.

- Come here, sit down.

- I don't want to sit around here.

- Sit down!

Right here.

There's nothing to be afraid

of. He thinks he's pregnant.

It's a fascinating case.

I'm working with the

University's psychiatric center.

Auto-physiological suggestion.

- What's going on?

- Get in there.

- How're you doing?

- How are you? Nice to see you.

- You're looking good.

- Thanks.

- Okay, you can go.

- That's it?

Something very important came up.

- I'm important.

- You are. Very.

But this is urgent. Get dressed

and we'll reschedule. Sorry.

How far along are you?

Twenty-one weeks.

- Is this your first?

- Yes.

Have you thought of any names?

Junior, if it's a boy.

And if it's a girl

Junior.

Those are nice.

- How about you?

- Alex.

Excuse me.

- Good luck.

- Thank you.

- Junior would be good.

- Junior's good.

There's the feet

and the hands.

This can't be happening.

But it is.

That little string of pearls.

- The spine.

- That's the spine, yeah.

There's the head.

My baby.

Listen to this.

That's the heartbeat.

That's very fast.

140 beats a minute.

Perfectly normal.

In fact

everything's perfectly normal.

Except for the fact that

the mom is also the dad.

If this gets out, your life is over.

You're a freak. My license?

Kiss it good-bye.

It's not going to get out.

I know this is unfair to you.

And it's dangerous for both of us

but I want my baby.

And I need your help.

Move back in with me. I want you

off your feet as much as possible.

And no going to the lab.

- But...

- No buts about it.

You're in a lot of sacrifices.

You'd better get used to that.

So, otherwise how are you feeling?

Anything unusual?

Jesus, what the heck am I

talking about? "Anything unusual"?

I've noticed the side effects

of pregnancy are amplified

with the dosage of

Expectane that I've required.

The morning sickness, the mood swings.

Sleepiness, sexual appetite.

Sexual appetite?

Yesterday, just scooping the middle

out of a honeydew melon gave me

a Steifen.

- A what?

That's normal.

I get them all the time.

It's nice to be back.

It's going to be a lot of fun.

- Do I have the same room again?

- You betcha.

What do you want to do tonight?

Should we stay in or go out for dinner?

Didn't I close down the

Expectane project six moths ago?

Then why would Diana Reddin's

account show continuing

requisitions for Expectane components?

Is she up to something

with Arbogast and Hesse?

I don't know, sir.

Larry, I'm not whining.

It's just that you said you'd

be home no later than 6:00.

It's 6:
45. The pasta is ready.

In five minutes, they'll be soft.

Well, fine, then come

home whenever you want!

Selfish.

- Diana. Hi.

- Yes, it's me. Hello.

Someone gave me these papers for you

from the lab.

- Thank you.

Who?

I'm lying.

I just, actually, I

just wanted to see you.

You did?

- Come in, please.

- Thank you.

I'm sorry I lied.

What a lovely room!

Very nice of Dr. Arbogast to put you up.

- It is.

- Nice man.

How are you? How are you feeling?

Good. Thank you.

And you?

Good.

Cooking?

Smells very nice.

You want to sit down?

Please.

Alex, do you believe in reincarnation

past lives or anything like that?

- No.

- No, either do I, so it can't be that.

Can't be what?

I have this strong recurring

feeling that I know you.

You do know me.

I know.

No, but I mean

I mean from before

somehow, from earlier.

I was born in Jakarta.

And raised in England, from

the age of five, in Kent

and summers in Cornwall.

What are you looking at?

I was born in Austria,

in Gelandensprung.

- Home to the Strudelhunds.

- Yes.

Well, I've never...

I've never actually

been to Gelandensprung.

Salzburg, once.

Delicious chocolate.

Good-looking waiters.

- Alex?

- Yes?

You're twitching.

What's the matter?

Does my body disgust you?

- What?

- My body?

Is it disgusting?

No! I mean, I like

upholstery on a man.

In fact, I was madly in love

with my cousin, Trevor, for years

and he was very portly.

Maybe it's physical.

- This connection.

- Yes. No, it is, definitely physical.

Out of the blue, I get these sudden,

these pangs of concern for your...

for your well...

You mean sex?

Yes.

I hadn't thought of that.
