The Switch Page #7

Synopsis: Kassie (Jennifer Aniston) and Wally (Jason Bateman) are best friends. Being unlucky in love, Kassie has decided to have a child using artificial insemination. Wally doesn't like this idea, but he isn't capable of admitting to himself, let alone to Kassie, that he's in love with her. At Kassie's artificial insemination party, Wally gets very drunk and spies the sperm donor's sample in the bathroom. Wally was way too drunk to know what he did that night, and Kassie has moved away because she doesn't feel that New York City is a place to raise a child. Now 7 years later, Kassie has moved back with her son Sebastian. While she is looking to get Roland (the sperm donor) more involved in their lives, Wally can't help but notice the many striking similarities that he and Sebastian share.

This is a sorbet or something?

How about that?

This year, Sebastian decided to

birthday to help Doug.

And Doug is a great

playful three-legged dog.

He needs a home.

And?

Doug is the next in line

one wishes to sleep.

That would be a terrible death.

But not dead yet.

very, very much alive and happy.

Now blow out the candles and eat cake.

I blow anything out until someone takes Doug.

I'll take it.

For example, I hear.

Thanks.

He has only three legs.

Make a wish, honey.

Everyones,a while all the randomness...

Something unexpected happens

and gives us a move forward.

And the truth is,

I start thinking...

I start to feel...

That the human race might

no variety.
