No, you breast-feed the baby, Jason
I have another call...
Too late, Jason I already scrubbed my own back
Honey, you know what time it is?
We are gonna do this again...
and this time, we really need to believe you are confusion, alright?
5 seconds, 4, 3, 2 and...
who is that?
what are these TV cameras doing in our bathroom?
I feel so good
Honey, you are not pregnant!
Of course, I am not pregnant
but you were last night, you've been pregnant for the last 4 months!
Excuse me, honey, you're blocking my shot
Honey, you are pregnant for 4 months and...
suddenly you stepped into the shower now you are not?
Oh Jason, you must've dreamed all that
It couldn't be, honey that only happens on television
bad television
Look at this, I'm gonna tell the studio I want that hairdresser fired
I don't care how many kids she's supporting
-Look at me! -what?
I'm pregnant
I know I was there when it happened
-It's a dream -thank you
Not that what I dreamed
what did you dream?
I stepped out of the shower and suddenly I wasn't pregnant
everything that happened at the last 4 months has been changed
That only happens on television
bad television
not necessarily
I think ur dream could mean that u have some mixed emotions about being pregnant
Jason, I am thrilled about having another baby, I am...
happy, I am proud I want the whole world to know
Can't tell I'm pregnant, can you?
Honey, I can even tell you a woman in that
So you hate it
No, No...it's nice
You are lying
you did say you were going to look at some nice maternity clothes
Jason, how can I buy maternity clothes, I have no time between...
work and home and getting the nursery ready
you want your boss can let you slow down a little bit after the baby is born?
What did he say when you told him you were pregnant?
-not that much really -Aha
-Aha what? -You still haven't even told him, have you?
Jason, you think you know me so well
Yes, I do
Ok, it just hasn't been the right time yet
I'll tell you the wrong time it'll be...
it'll be next week when you're in a leotard doing your serials on aerobics
so you prefer I wear something baggy?
Honey, I just...
you know what I think?
I think you are the one who's uncomfortable with me being pregnant
what?
How else do you explain your dream?
It was your dream
I think the sooner you tell your boss you're having a baby, the better
-you are right -good
-I will definitely tell him today -that's my girl
If I see him
Boy, this is great we get a whole school day off
I love teacher conference days
Yeah, we need more of 'em
what do you think those teachers talk about all day?
you, Ben
School books on a holiday? Even nerds don't do that
For your information, this happen to be books of names...
I'm preparing a list of suggestions for my new sister
sister?
Carol, you're wasting your time, it's gonna be a boy
It's another boy, you can name him whatever you want, I'm leaving home
You promise?
Benny come on, relax! I was just kidding those teachers aren't talking about you
It's gonna be so neat
Just seeing her cute little clothes, taking her for walks
having him barf on you
babies do that?
Yes, it was the nicest things they do
Did I vomit when I was a baby?
yeah, all over me
Good work there, bro.
Just wait, when the new baby gets here, you both are gonna to clean up your ax
big deal
You'll think it's a big deal when Mom can't save you for that baby defense anymore
baby defense?
You know "Oh Jason, go easy on him, he is our baby"
And face it, Ben you do a lot of dumb baby things
you take that back
Ben, don't play with your food you are not a baby
Your father's right, Ben
You'd better have more than that you're eating for two
So is Ben
Thank you, Jason
Bye, kids, enjoy your day-off
Don't you forget today's...
Yes, I will talk to my boss, I promise. You want it written in blood?
Sorry, I've got to go
your mother is feeling a little tense
A little, good things she didn't have a gun
she's pregnant, tired and overworked
who isn't?
I understand. It must be very difficult to have a baby in the autumn of your life
don't you ever, ever, never say that to your mother
Gotcha
First of all, there is something we could do for her, you know make her feel good
she's been so worried lately about getting ready for the baby...
-decorating the nursery room -Dad, that's it!
Dad, we could decorate the nursery today
That's not a bad idea
thank you
But dad, I have a big stuff to do today
Wouldn't you like to do something nice for your mother?
-Do I have a choice? -No
Sure
How about you, Mike?
well actually, I was planning on spending the entire day studying
I'd love to help
Oh great, this is we're gonna cheer up
we are gonna take that guest room, make it into the best looking nursery she ever saw
Come on, let's go!
-Good thinking, Carol -thank you
Yeah "Good thinking, Carol" now you just ruin the whole day for all of us
That was my plan
what's "hmm"?
I never thought of this before the guest room is all the way down the hall
So?
Your mom and I have to be much closer to the nursery
well all the other rooms are taken
we just might have to do some rearranging. I'll be right back
rearranging?
Oh no, who is going to lose his room?
what?!
Mike, what matters is it's good for the baby
Good, then you give up your room
well, if that's the decision, then that's the decision
Carol, telephone
-Benny, look, we got to move fast here -Move? You mean we are out?
I just mean that you've got to make sure you don't wind up in the guest room
why do I wind up in the guest room?
well, think about it, Ben whose room is closer to mom and dad's?
yours
Ok, but between the two of us which has the least physical damage?
-Mine -right...
and I bet Carol is pointing that out to dad right now
I didn't mean to barf on her!
If it was me, Benny, I would do anything to get out of that guest room
Me too, it's got xxx wallpaper is almost like grandma
I just wish there was some way that we can make sure that...
Oh, wait a minute...
Oh, nay, that's too crazy
No, it isn't, let's do it, what is it?
Alright, you volunteer to give up your room
It is too crazy
Benny, listening, Dad will be so touched that you offer your room to baby
that he'll reward you, let you pick any other bedroom in the house
Great, I'll take yours
think about it who has the biggest bedroom in the house?
Mom and Dad
-Ok, the second biggest? -Carol
Right
I know this is not the great thing to do, Ben, but...the baby coming at this ugly times
Ok where were we?
Dad, I want the baby to have my room
That's very unselfish, Ben, I am touched
I just want whatever best for the baby
You mean that?
cross my heart
You know your room and Mike's are both so close, that was gonna be a tossup
It was?
Yes, but your generosity, Ben, has made a tough decision easy for me
I want you to know just as soon as we finished the baby's room
we'll get to work on fixing out the guestroom for you, OK?
Sorry Benny, we tried So close
Thelma, would you tell me the minute Mr. Sidlevich is off the phone?
It won't be long he's just talking with Shoner...
about when she's coming back from maternity leave
How is her baby?
Shoner says it's finally sleeping through the night
You're sure you're up to going through all that again
Definitely, it's all... you know?
Of course I know
That's Shoner all over again
wearing baggy clothes, running to the bathroom every 5 minutes...
saying "oh" every time somebody mentions a baby
freaking out about telling Mr. Sidlevich
I am not freaking, I was just waiting for the right time
This is the right time?
when Shorner have told him about the baby, he was thrilled
really?
Maggie, he is a family man himself, he is a pussycat
Mr. Sidlevich I just need one moment of your time
Maggie, one second... Thelma, send out a memo...
Shoner Smar will not be returning to the Channel 19 anchor desk
having elected to stay at home with her new baby if you can believe that garbage
In fact, immediately any woman who works at Channel 19...
who gets pregnant will be fired
Cordially Sid Sidlevich
Sir, you can't do that
I don't want to do it, I just wanted to say it
well Maggie what did you want to see me about?
Oh I just wanted to say...
"have a nice day!"
Isn't she sweet?
Alright, guys, great job
Please bring those paint cans out to the garage when you finish
what'll your mother get when she sees this?
she is going to be so happy, she is going to cry like a baby
So, you are never going to talk to me again?
-Never -You just did
-Stopping now -You did it again
Stop it, Mike
Consider what I've done to you a valuable lesson, learning how to look out for yourself
once you've been replaced by the baby in the family
-I'm gonna tell Dad -tell Dad what?
nothing, nothing, he is hallucinating. I think he's inhaled a little wallpaper paste
Mike said that if I gave up my room, Dad will give me yours
what?!
Hold it, whatever this is about, it can wait. Now your mother is on the way upstairs
when she gets here, we all yell surprise, Ok?
Yes, we are up in Ben's room
not any more
Surprise!!
You did all this?
Yeah, no, not just myself, it was everybody
everybody, except me?
she loves it
I just don't get it, I thought you would be so pleased we fixed up the nursery...
It was a nice gesture, Jason, even with the hideous drapes
what kind of mother am I going to be if I don't even have time...
to take part in getting the nursery ready?
You are great one, honey, a sensational one...
just doesn't have any taste in drapes
A great mother would've been able to tell her boss she was pregnant
what?!
I chickened out
Honey, why are you so afraid to tell him?
I am not afraid, I know what it is I am just...scared
what are you so afraid...so scared out?
I don't know, that...
that he'll treat me like I am pregnant, things are going to change
honey, of course things are going to change
But I don't want them to change, I'm finally fitting in the work, doing a great job
but sweetheart, we just have to face it
we're gonna have to make some adjustments
what adjustments?
like...like reducing my patient load
-Can you do that? -Of course I can
I just have to start curing those nuts those fast
It's a joke, honey
but we never talked about you scaling down your practice before
-I just never thought of it before -Shouldn't you have thought of it before?
I guess, I don't know
Great, this kid doesn't have a chance
She's got a terrible mother and a thoughtless jokester father
Alright, Benny, I'll admit it, my plan didn't work out perfectly
Oh, sure it did
Hey come on, Benny, I had the best of motives here
I mean I want Carol to get the shorter end of the stick
Ben, you see what happens when you trust Mike
You wind up in the guest room
A guest in your own home
boy, I might as well just go renting an apartment or something
Not bad, Carol, not bad
when Mom and dad find out about this and I promise you...
they will
you'll be in deep deep trouble
Look, Carol, don't start blaming Ben's housing problems on me
Then who's fault is it?
I think we both know the answer to that one
You are blaming this on an unborn child?
Let's look at the fact here, Carol, I mean...
so far this kid who I personally don't even know yet...
messed up everybody
It is going to be a girl
Mike, I'll pray for you
Look, Carol, I mean nobody bothered to ask me how I felt about...
having new kid around this house
So, nobody asked Ben and me either
Alls I'm saying is if we have family meetings about vacations
shouldn't we have one about this?
you are right
you know what I think
I think mom and dad're trying to sneak this new kid butts
Mike, we should still have a family meeting
and we obviously have a lot to discuss
I bet mom and dad will think it's a great idea too
they love it when we want to communicate
and I'll be the one who propose it
here is the answer to that problem
when the baby cries at night, I'll be the one who gets up
you have to look good in front of that news camera
if you are sleepy, you look like a deathworm's dover
A nice death...
Jason, you have to get your sleep to your patients every morning
Sure, but when I look like hell in the morning...
my patients feel better about themselves. Isn't that my job?
But what if you resent scaling down your practice
what if you resent me what if you resent the baby?
Mom and Dad, we need a Seaver family meeting right now
I fear for the future of this family
Mike, we are a little busy
another time, Mike
Mom and Dad, we really need a Seaver family meeting immediately, trust me
Carol, that's your mother just explained to Mike, we...
Absolutely, Carol. Let's go
You heard your mother
Living room, kitchen, one bir...
what the heck is a bir...?
swimming pool, TV, refrigerator, no laundry. All right!
Ben, what are you doing?
Looking for my own place
what?
but, sweetheart, why?
As long as I've lost my room, I might as well get some nice without flowers on the wall
how are you going to pay for this?
No problem, see... most these Ads say "first month rent free"
well, I'll just move every month
I'd like to call the Seaver family meeting to order?
I move that we talk about how Mike conned Ben out of his room
Carol, you have not been recognised in fact, I'm not even sure that's you at all
Mike, what did you do to Ben?
Dad, it was not the purpose of this meeting here today, I think...
what we should be talking about is this baby mess
baby mess?
Mike, this baby is a blessed event
Will the sergeant at arms please escort this lady out?
Mom Dad, Mike hates the baby
You have me confused with Ben
I just want my room back
but you volunteered to give it up, didn't you?
This meeting has adjourned, thank you very much for coming...
-It is not -Mike, get back in here
Kids, this new baby is going to change things around here
And some of them are going to be wonderful, some of them aren't
All you two can think about is yourselves
Personally, I'm gonna love everything about this baby
Even coming home straight after school to help out?
Of course
This won't be everyday, would it?
No, but Carol, are you ready for things like changing dirty diapers?
Oh, I thought Ben would do that
why me?
Because my instinct tells me you'd be good at it
Stinky is right
Carol, you will be doing your share of changing dirty diapers
Let the record show that Miss Blessed Event here said, quote, "Eww"
Alright, now every member of this family is gonna have to make some sacrifices here
-me too? -Yes, you too
you're gonna have to get used to the new stereo policy
my stereo will be turned off every night by 11 pm, 1 am tops
That's not what we had in mind
Ok, midnight it is, you can count on me
There will be no music while the baby is asleep day or night
Day or night, what's left?
Ben, how do you feel about making sacrifices?
It's fine with me, I'm gonna be hanging out in my duplex
I'm still not clear how Ben lost his room
Mike conned me out of it
Let the record show Mike and I will talk later
during "Moonlighting"
what I don't get is why do we have to suffer when you are the one having the baby
Ben, you kids aren't the only ones being asked sacrifices around here
your father's gonna rearrange his whole practice
Your mother has to take time off from her job she's just getting used to
if this baby is messing everybody up, then why are you having it?
I never thought about putting it into words
That's not easy to do
It's you guys don't know either?
No no no, we know, I...
well I guess...
because a baby is this close to a miracle that's we're...ever can get
and having each one of you is the most wonderful thing...
that ever happened to your father and me
Thank you, mom, that's really beautiful
especially the way you include Mike
Does that answer your question, Ben?
your mother and I...
we believe there's nothing in the world more important than our family
we sure do. not work, or losing sleep
not me reducing my patient load
nothing
Oh honey, why didn't we come up with all the substances?
Oh Jason, this baby is going to be great
That doesn't answer my question either
I think what Ben's trying to ask here is what's in this baby deal for us
what's in it for you?
It was Ben's question
well, everything
the thing is in it for us
Now you guys insult each other more than anybody I know...
but I also bet my soul that deep down underneath all that...
each one of you loves each other
Carol, how would you really feel if there were no Mike?
and Ben, how would you really feel if there were no Carol?
and Mike, would you really feel...
don't you say one word to spoil the sensitive moment
Just think, we are all going to have a new person to love
and once he or she is here, we wonder how we ever lived without her...or him
Ben, does that answer your question?
I think so
So you are saying, it's not just you and mom are having a baby, we're all pregnant?
you couldn't be more right, Ben
This is so sweet
Mike, are you crying too?
No, it's your feet
I can't remember when I was more proud of those guys
Yeah, they are finally truly excited about the baby
and you were wonderful
Honey, who are you calling at this hour?
-Oh, my doctor, it's time -what?!
Just kidding
my boss
why don't call him tomorrow?
No, I don't want to put this off another...
Hello, this is Maggie, I'm calling to tell you I'm pregnant
I'm 4 months along, but if you still want to put me in a leotard next week...
I'm game
This isn't 55512548?
