do this for me!

O.K., O.K.,

I will.

Thanks! Excellent!

Excellent!

Excellent.

Oh! There we go.

This is fun,

isn't it?

Yeah!

Isn't this jolly,

Molly? Ha ha!

Listen to this.

"I removed

the victims' brains

with an ice-cream

scooper."

Awesome, huh?

Shannon, the other

children here

don't want to hear

that beastly stuff,

so just

read quietly.

Higher!

Yes. Higher.

Now, Patsy, no.

That's not funny, my love.

Don't strangle

the little boy.

But he likes it!

Say uncle!

Just...

Yes, that's it.

Hey, Sam! Sam!

Oof!

Sh*t.

Sam, are you O. K?

Great. Fine.

Are you all right?

Yeah, yeah. Good.

We're getting on

well here.

Is Rebecca coming?

No.

No? Marty,

we had an agreement.

She's

in the hospital, Sam.

The hospital?

Why? What's wrong?

There might be a problem

with the pregnancy.

What are you

talking about?

The doctors don't know,

but she's with them.

Jesus Christ.

Be careful, Sam!

Hi. Which room is

Rebecca Taylor in, please?

Where's that?

Just around

the corner.

Gail!

So?

Will she be

all right?

Yeah, she's

going to be fine.

Oh!

She just started

having some contractions,

and she started dilating.

They'll keep her overnight,

restrict her movement.

It just sometimes happens

in the seventh month.

And the baby's O. K?

Yeah. Baby's great.

So... can I see her?

Don't upset her.

I won't.

Promise?

Yep. Promise.

O.K.

Thanks.

Hi.

Hi.

What are you

doing here?

Well, you know I was

worried about...

about you

and the baby.

We're going to be fine.

Yeah. That's

what Gail said.

Is this...

is this noise...

Is that the baby's

heartbeat?

Yeah.

Strong.

Yeah.

Beck, I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I was, um...

a disgrace.

I mean,

I know now exactly

what a bastard

I was.

I was... I was...

completely selfish,

and you had

absolutely

every right

to walk out on me.

But I just want

you to reconsider.

Sam, please, no...

Let me just explain.

I think...

I know

that I've changed.

You don't believe

in change.

I do now.

Change is great.

Change is what

it's all about.

Anyone who doesn't believe

in change is a coward,

which is what I was.

I was scared.

I was scared of...

of losing control

and of losing,

you know,

you or what

we had together

and losing my youth.

Aren't you now?

No. No, especially

not my youth.

My youth is here,

doing well.

I'd really love

to believe this.

Listen, I've seen

the second

ultrasound...

The one you left

at Dr. Thatcher's

the day I was late.

The point is,

I don't care

what I think or

don't think anymore.

I don't give

a damn about me.

I'm in love

with my child.

You are?

And I'm completely in love

with you for having it.

Samuel, you almost

ruined everything, and...

Shh. Please.

It's

the seventh month.

The baby

can hear you.

How do you know that?

I've been

reading up...

Dr. Brazelton,

What To Expect When

You're Expecting.

I've been

to a Lamaze class.

I was the only

single father there.

Really?

And I sold

the Porsche.

Oh, I don't believe that.

Yep. Marty gave me

a terrible deal

on a big family car.

He did?

Yes.

It's parked outside.

Car seat,

family extras.

It just needs

a family.

And, um...

there's this.

Open it.

Would you be my wife?

Yes.

Yes!

On one condition.

O.K.

Lose the earring.

It's gone.

Ah!

Thank you.

I've always wanted

to be carried

over a threshold.

Unh.

Are you all right?

Yeah. I've got

something to show you.

Yeah?

Oh, Samuel.

It's...

It's beautiful.

You did this

all by yourself?

Uh, yeah. Yeah.

Thank you.

It's perfect.

How are you feeling,

love?

Oh, O.K.

My feet are

really swollen.

My back's killing me.

Well, look.

Leave this to me.

I'm going to pull

a few strings.

All right.

Hi. Look, I'm sorry

to bother you.

My wife's pregnant,

she's due in two weeks,

and I was wondering...

Lili.

Samuel. Oh.

Hi. What a coincidence.

How... How long... How long...

How long have you

been working here?

Three weeks.

Three weeks.

How are things?

Busy.

Obviously.

So listen, Lili,

how long is the wait

for a table going to be?

Give me

a few minutes.

I'll seat you

right away.

O.K. Great.

Great.

Well, succes.

She's just setting

the table now.

You know her?

Who?

The hostess.

The hostess?

I've never seen her

before in my life.

Samuel!

She called you Samuel.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

That's my name.

Yeah, but you're

on a first-name basis

with a woman you've

never seen before?

Well, she took

my first name. See?

Some places take

the first name.

Some places,

they use last names.

Here, they use

first names.

Oh.

You're silly.

You're paranoid.

Oh.

Go on.

Aah!

What is it?

Aah... sh*t!

What? What?

I cut my hand.

Wow, that's bad.

Samuel...

Hang on.

This is quite serious.

That needs stitches.

Samuel,

my water broke.

We'll get you another.

No. My water broke.

This water broke?

Yeah.

That means it's time.

That's right.

We got to go

to the hospital.

Well, go! Go!

Wait! Wait for me!

I got the doctor's

machine again.

Where could he be,

at some bloody

doctor's party?

Come on.

Please go faster.

When did you sell

the Porsche?

I knew it.

What, hon?

You slept with her,

didn't you,

while we were apart?

It was completely

innocent.

Nothing happened.

I was completely

faithful to you.

Lili, wasn't I

completely faithful?

Completely faithful.

I don't believe you.

If it was innocent,

why did you lie

about knowing her?

Because you were

in a fragile state.

I'm in a more

fragile state now.

I swear on the life

of my child

I did not sleep

with her.

Samuel, stop!

Jeez!

- Aah!

- Aah!

- Aah!

- Aah!

Oh.

Jesus.

You stupid

son of a b*tch!

He has

a heart condition!

Learn to drive!

What?

George,

are you all right?

I'm having

chest pains.

I'll call an ambulance.

Look, I'm on the way

to the hospital,

if you'd like a ride.

Where is Dr. Green?

Get off the phone

and drive,

Limey scumbag!

Leave me alone,

you mad witch!

Aah!

Sorry. Where is

Dr. Green?

You tried

his home number?

Yes.

His beeper?

Yes. No!

You have that number?

Yeah. It's around

here somewhere.

Oh, where is that

bloody number?

Uh...

Samuel?

It's a bicycle!

Aah!

Jesus.

I'm sorry.

Are you all right?

My leg is broken.

Help me!

Help me!

Yes. Help!

Just stay there.

Just stay there.

Are you trying to kill

everyone in San Francisco,

you a**hole?

We don't have time

for this!

My husband is having

a heart attack!

Oh! Ow!

Ohh!

Ow! Where are

you taking me?

Shut up or I'll break

the other leg!

Ah! You! Over here!

I've got stitches,

heart attack, woman in labor,

oh, and broken leg.

Aah!

Sorry. Sorry.

Oh, my God.

Come quick!

Aah! Aah!

O.K.

Yeah, I got it.

I got it.

Unh! Unh!

Aah!

Please. Please.

Please. Please.

She's... Please.

Oh!

Lady, I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

It's all right,

honey.

I beg your pardon.

It's all right.

Aah!

Aah!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Are you all right?

Get me out of here.

May I help you?
