Yes...

thank you for your donation, Mrs. Leahy.

You've always been so generous

with your time as, as well as your money.

Uh, no.

Well, okay, sure.

Hello, Jack.

Jack, uh, can you put your mommy back on the phone?

Mrs. Leahy?

Is-Is Jack all right?

Ah...

Yes, he certainly has a

lively way of expressing himself.

Okay, good-bye.

You know, I think that's a mom thing,

'cause Mary does the same thing.

Every time I call her she puts little

Charles Miguel on the phone

and I end up paying long-distance charges

just to listen to him breathe while she's in the background

going, "Say hi, say hi." Yeah,

he'll probably be talking up a storm in no time.

Well, since I'm leaving for school

I thought I'd come say my farewells.

I wish you were leaving with more assurance

that you realize you made some bad choices last year,

'cause I feel that instead you're leaving with

commitment to continue some bad choices.

I think we're gonna have to agree to disagree.

Okay, Simon,

we'll agree to disagree.

But when you're faced with the consequences of your actions...

And there are consequences...

Please don't let the fact that I'm right and you're wrong

keep you from coming to me for help.

And, um, with that said,

I believe you'll be needing a little money for school.

So far, Dad,

the consequences have been that I've reexamined my life

and I've realized why I was doing what I was doing,

which is crazy because I'm not a bad person.

And, you know, so now...

Yeah?

If I continue doing what I'm doing

it'll be for the right reasons.

Like marriage?

Do you really want me to get married at 19?

No, but I really want you to wait until you find

someone you're madly in love with,

who's a good person

and whose life complements yours,

and then marry her after you're both

out of college and then have sex.

Yeah, that's exactly what my parents planned for me.

Only, it didn't quite work out that way.

Leanne?

Reverend Camden.

Come in.

This is my son, Simon.

Hi.

Hi. Let me guess...

he called you down here

and you could pretend that you're in trouble

so that I could see what would happen to me.

I have to pack. Thanks for the check.

Simon?

Is that you?

It's Justin.

Justin Smith.

I know.

I'm probably the last person

in the whole world you wanted to see today.

Actually, that's not true.

Well, it's true for me.

I-I've been dreading this day

pretty much every minute of my life since the accident.

I can imagine.

I should have called you way before this.

Man... I'm really sorry about all those threats.

Must have really freaked you out.

Maybe we could grab a cup of coffee sometime.

Uh... all right.

Maybe, yeah.

You know, whenever you want.

I'll... I'll leave it up to you.

Are you for real?

Straight up.

I mean, I just... I can't believe I'm...

I'm looking at the same person.

You look so different.

I mean, you look great.

Yeah, I... I've changed a lot.

It's been over a year since the accident,

and the loss of my brother...

it saved my family and me,

and it seems to have some purpose now.

Doesn't take the pain away, but... we're better now.

I'm drug free, with absolutely no desire

of ever going near that stuff again.

And I've even been asked to speak at some schools,

you know, about what seems like a harmless little drug

can end in death and the near destruction of a family.

How are you doing?

I'm okay, I guess, you know.

I'm... I'm going to be okay.

I'm going back to school.

It's going to be my second year.

I can't drive by that corner, though.

I mean, I freak out every time

I have to pass someone who's on a bike.

I don't think I'm ever going to be able to get on a bike again.

And aside from the fact that I'm in this relationship

that can't be good, I'm...

Getting some help?

Yeah.

If you ever need anything...

you know where I live.

Pick one.

I can't do it. I...

I can't believe that after all I've been through

that I can't keep this baby, but...

I can't, so... those are the two choices.

Look, I'll meet with them if you'd like and give you

my opinion, but you might want to meet with the couple

I choose, just for your own peace of mind.

These people

are going to be the parents of your child.

No, I... I trust you.

You'd be much better than me at picking the right people.

We can meet

with them together if that would make you feel more comfortable.

I don't want any part of it.

It's too painful for me.

I just can't do it.

I'll meet with them first.

If, for any reason, neither couple works out,

I'm going to put you in touch with a very reputable attorney

who might have a little more experience than...

you know, just a guy you found off the Internet.

Thank you, Reverend Camden,

but hopefully, one of these couples will do.

Hello.

Hi.

Was that plan B to keep Simon on the straight and narrow?

No.

That, uh... that young lady

is about to give her baby up for adoption because

she's not married,

she just graduated from high school,

she's got a chance to start college in January,

and she doesn't feel she can provide for her child.

And I just... I don't think she's

thought this through or gotten the best advice.

Okay, now you made me really sad.

Oh... I don't want to make you sad.

You make me smile every time I see you.

How's it going?

It's going great.

I got my paper back.

I made an A.

Part of last week's sermon?

Yes.

Would you like to do this week's sermon?

No, I've got midterms coming up,

and I'm kicking off my class for teens this afternoon.

You're a few hours early.

Yeah, Kevin worked the night shift last night,

and he's sleeping.

I thought I'd just come down and kind of get used to the place.

Uh... Oh.

Did you need the office?

I have a few things to do.

So we'll share it.

Where is your mommy?

Go home, Mr. Fluffy.

No bird today.

Who's out there?

I was chasing away

the neighbors' cat. Why?

You like the neighbors' cat.

Oh, that is the sweetest little bird.

Well, take him back outside and find the nest.

I have homework.

So the bird dies because you have something else to do?

No, no, no, your bird, your responsibility.

I've got a family to take care of.

Oh.

Hello?

Hi, Mrs. Camden.

It's Harry.

Is Ruthie there?

No, she's outside.

Could I have her call you back?

Could you just give her a message?

Sure.

Could you tell her

I found another girlfriend?

I'm not gonna give her a message like that.

You tell her yourself.

It's not a big deal.

Could you just tell her, please?

No,

but I will tell her to call you back.

Does that come in pink?

What about yellow?

Green?

It's only in blue, there are no other choices?

If you could come to the church this afternoon,

that would be great.

Okay, thank you, good-bye.

What?

Mmm.

Yeah, I, I'm having a girl.

Yeah, I know.

So what bumpers do come in pink?

What? No, I, I don't like fairies.

No, I don't like unicorns either.

Am I too loud?

No, it's just a little distracting.

Wait... wait, stripes are too masculine,

but what about gingham?

So...

I'll just work from my office at home,

unless, of course, you'd like to work from my office at home.

I can't, I've got teenagers coming.

Wait, pink gingham?

Oh, well...

Oh...

I'm happy I found you.

Look,

I tried to get Mrs. Camden to do this, but she won't.

Could you tell Ruthie I have another girlfriend?

Oh, no.

Been there, done that.

You can tell her yourself.

I don't even know her that well.

Well, still, that's a conversation

you have to have with Ruthie.

Here's the thing.

There's a girl in Social Services

who doesn't have a family either,

and let's face it, at this age

we're not gonna get a family,

so we thought we'd just get married.

You really think that's a good plan, Harry?

You really think it's better to be in Social Services?

Well...

I want a family,

and if I have to start one of my own, fine.

If I can't get a mom and a dad, I'll take a wife.

Which means I can't be Ruthie's boyfriend.

Sorry.

You explain it to her.

I, I don't have enough experience.

Are you busy?

A little.

Feel free to grab that mop and help me out.

I just wanted to ask you something.

Ask away.

Did you, you know,

were you and Lucy ever...

together before you got married?

No, we were not.

We waited until we got married.

Was that your idea or Lucy's idea?

It was something we decided together.

What, um, what about before Lucy?

What are you getting at?

What I'm getting at is maybe I'm not normal.

Maybe I'm the only guy in the world

who thinks he has to wait until he gets married.

What brought this on? Simon?

Baseball. I had a bad practice today.

And when I thought about it, I realized most guys my age

are just fooling around after school,

not knocking themselves out

just to get yelled at by some dumb coach.

You had a bad practice so now you think

you'll completely abandon everything you believe in

and go out and do something stupid?

Yeah, it does sound kind of dumb when I think about it.

Wait a minute.

Why'd you have a bad practice?

I saw that Harry kid with some girl.

Ruthie's gonna get her heart broken.

I'll kill him.

He's pretty tough.

I'm a cop.

He's in Social Services.

I don't think he's afraid of authority figures.

We'll see about that.

Do you know where this kid lives?

Social Services.

Yeah, right.

Finish the floor.

I'll be back.

No way.

I can't find the nest.

Oh, we'd better find somebody

to take care of it.

Well, I can

take care of it.

I want to take care of it.

How are you gonna feed it?

Can't be that hard.

You just get some worms, right? Right.

Yeah, but why don't I go down

to the sporting goods store for you?

They, they sell live worms for fish bait.

Well, that's great. Thanks.

How are things going with Harry?

I know you don't like him, Dad,

but he's a nice guy, a really nice guy.

Yeah, but he's not the only nice guy at your school.

There are probably lots of nice guys.

I'm sure there are,

but this is the one I'm interested in.

Sorry.

I couldn't find the nest.

So I'm just going to have to take care of the bird myself.

Oh.

Harry called, he wants you to call him back.

Yeah, I'll call him.

Hello?

I need to speak to Reverend Camden.

Well, he's not home yet.

Are you Mrs. Camden?

Yes, I am.

This is Leanne.

I need some help.

I-I-I'm here at the hospital.

I'm having my baby.

I-I thought I had a couple more weeks, but I don't.

I don't even know if I have a couple more hours.

Well...

I'll find him, but what do you want him to do exactly?

I want him to hurry up and find my baby a mom and dad.

Like now!

Keep breathing.

That wasn't so bad, was it?

No.

This is nothing

how I thought having my first baby would be like.

How did you picture it?

First off, I never expected it

to be the product of a broken home.

I always dreamed I'd have this big wedding, and...

my dad would walk me down the aisle,

have this really proud look on his face.

He would be so happy for me.

And then when I got pregnant,

my mom would pamper me

and be there for me

and tell me what it's like every step of the pregnancy,

so it wasn't so scary.

And then after I had the baby,

they would come and visit us every Sunday

and I'd cook us all dinner.

I haven't seen my dad in years,

and my mom was so furious

when she found out I was pregnant

that she kicked me out of the house.

She said she'd let me come back home

and-and help me with college,

only if I gave my baby up.

Here I am, single,

in labor with a baby I know I have to give up,

with-with someone whom I hardly know

taking the time to take care of me.

It's pretty pathetic, huh?

No, I'm happy to be here for you, Leanne.

I'll help you through this, okay?

Thank you.

I guess I learned the hard way... It's better not to have dreams,

'cause you'll always be disappointed

because people will always disappoint you.

I've even disappointed myself.

Oh, don't say that.

People make mistakes.

People aren't perfect.

We make choices that affect where our lives go,

but if it's not the right choice,

there's still a chance to... to make it good.

It, it may not be your original dream,

but if you learn from the mistake,

why, you know, you can make a version of that dream come true.

I don't want my baby to think it can't count on me

and have to go through what I've been through.

I want to be there...

and I don't want to let my baby down.

Annie,

there is no way I'm giving up my baby.

Call Eric, now!

Excuse me.

I'm sorry

we had to wake you.

Ever since I've become pregnant, I

find myself taking little catnaps here and there.

I'm Bernadette Owen,

and...

this is my husband Marcus. Hi.

We are thrilled at the prospect of adopting your baby.

Yeah.

So, how many months along are you?

Oh, well, I'm in my second trimester,

but I should...

Actually, if you don't mind, we'd like to start right in

and get down to business.

Um, I feel it's important for both parties

to have the information, you know,

to make a... an educated

and-and suitable decision.

We just have a few questions.

Um...

Sure.

Great, um...

Okay, uh, any-any mental illness in the family?

Um, let's see, um,

I'm not sure, but right now there's none that I know of.

I'll, I'll ask.

Right, okay, good.

Um, any history of drug or alcohol abuse?

Absolutely not.

Do, do you and the father happen to know

what your IQ's are?

No, but...

we both consider ourselves intelligent people.

Okay. Um...

Do you or the father have any special skill sets

or anything, let's say,

that you find you are naturally gifted at?

Right, uh, you know, such as, um,

math. Right.

Uh, music, science.

It could be physical, as well as intellectual.

Before we go on with any more questions,

I... I just want to remind you that as I understand it,

I'm the one who should be doing the interviewing.

So, so, let me throw a question back at you.

What if you knew that my baby had no special skills at all,

was of average intelligence,

and would grow up to be an average person

who was kind and hardworking?

That would be something that we'd have to think about.

I think this is the end of our meeting.

Good-bye.

And shame on you.

Hello?

Lucy, I'm sorry. I'm not going to be able

to get down to the church. Something's come up.

Hmm. Don't worry about it, Dad.

Will you be able to meet

with prospective parents for Leanne's baby?

Well, actually, I already met with a couple.

I couldn't get a hold of you.

Well, great. How-How did it go?

Oh, they are definitely not going to work out.

Dad, you wouldn't believe what they said. It was like...

Luce, if-if you didn't think they were right, I trust you.

Thanks for your vote of confidence, Dad.

I won't let you or Leanne or the baby down.

Well, at the moment, Leanne has changed her mind,

but maybe it's just under the stress of delivery.

Oh, so you're at the hospital.

Uh, your mom is.

Look, I know you have your teen class coming in,

so if it's too much to meet

with this other couple, I can reschedule.

No, not a problem, Dad, but I thought you said

that Leanne had changed her mind.

For now.

We don't know what's going to happen, so...

they don't need to know anything just now.

I just... I wish I had more time to get to know Leanne.

You know, more time to find a-a really nice couple.

There are so many of them out there.

Well, I'll let you know if they come here.

Why don't you feed him cereal?

I bet he likes cereal.

It's delicious and nutritious, too.

Well, he likes these worms.

He's just not eating as much as he was before.

He doesn't look the same as when you first found him.

Hey, how's the bird doing?

Oh, uh, in case I don't see you before I go,

I'm-I'm leaving for school sometime today,

so I'll see you when I get back.

Okay.

Bye.

Bye.

I'm not leaving right this second, you guys.

See you later.

Nice.

So, is that your way of kicking me to the curb?

What do you mean?

I need

a little more closure than that.

I'm just going off to school.

Yeah, but it's not just you going off to school.

It's you leaving again, and let's face it.

You're not going to be back home for any period of time.

You've flown the coop.

Ruthie, I'm always going to be a part of this family.

Yeah, but lately, it just seems by name only.

I mean, I don't mind being left out of

the family conversations about you and your problems,

but I do mind being left out of your life.

You're not being left out of my life.

Look, I have to get to the bank before it closes.

Then I'll come back, and we'll talk, okay? I promise.

Yeah, yeah. That's what they call

the big blow off, isn't it?

Hi. You must be the Shearers.

Yes. I'm Lucy Camden.

I'm filling in for my father.

He's sorry he couldn't make it, but since I'm an expectant mom,

I hope you wouldn't mind talking to me

so I can tell the expectant mom a little bit about you both.

Not at all. We're so excited.

How soon do you think we'll be able to get the baby?

Uh... Uh... I-I don't know.

I think the mother just wanted someone to meet you

to see if she should meet you.

Are other couples being interviewed?

Yes.

Well, uh, we can provide

the very best things for this child that money can buy.

I want the mother to know that.

Oh, okay.

If we can

get him or her before the new restaurant opens,

that would be fantastic.

Oh, would you or your husband,

or both of you be able to take maternity leave?

Oh, no. No, no, no.

We run our own business, so that wouldn't be possible.

We already own a couple of restaurants, so,

it's a 24/seven type of business.

But don't let that worry you,

because we know this terrific nanny.

Right.

We've already talked to her about being

a possible live-in,

since the weekends are our busiest days.

And just so you know,

it's not as if we can't have our own baby.

There's no problem in that department.

Biologically speaking, the doctors say there isn't

a problem with me conceiving a baby.

It's just that we don't want to go through all that...

and take unnecessary risks.

Unnecessary risks?

What if there were complications, and she

had to spend some of her pregnancy in bed?

We can't have that.

There is no way she can take time

off of work, so adopting is the best option for me.

Her. Us.

And she doesn't have to lose her figure.

I was just kidding.

We Really do think that adoption is

the easiest way to go for us.

No need

in making this parent thing any harder than it has to be.

Right.

I'm really sorry about... your situation,

but I don't understand why you would choose to hurt Ruthie.

She's not dumping you.

She would, eventually.

What?

I borrowed it.

Hello?

Hi. It's Ruthie.

What's up?

Harry, I need your help.

Kevin and Martin are here.

Maybe you should talk to one of them.

Hi, Ruthie.

Where are you,

and what are you and Martin doing with Harry?

I'll explain it to you later.

What do you need?

I'm trying to save a baby bird,

and I think it's dying.

Are you Charlie Bates?

Yes. Do I know you?

No.

I'm Eric Camden. I'm, uh, the minister

down at Glenoak Community Church.

I'm a friend of Leanne's.

Leanne?

Where-Where is she?

Uh, may I come in?

Charlie, who is it?

Maybe we should talk out here.

All right.

It's okay, Mom.

Look, I... I'm sorry.

I'm gonna have to forego

all the usual pleasantries

and just get to what I have to tell you.

She's pregnant, isn't she?

I-I know that must be what happened,

but her mother won't tell me anything,

and Leanne just disappeared.

You're going to be a father.

Leanne wanted to give the baby up

for adoption, but now she's gone into labor, and

she's changed her mind.

She would like you to be there.

Wow.

I kind of knew, but I-I didn't.

Look, I-I'm sorry, but we don't have a lot of time.

How... How am I gonna tell my parents?

I-I have to tell my parents.

I'm so dead.

Well, I'll help you talk to them.

Look, I'm relieved that you want to talk to them.

I think you're gonna need them.

Just one thing?

Take a little more time than you did with me

before breaking it to them.

I don't want to have to call the paramedics.

All right.

I see spots.

There are no spots, but it does

look like he's losing feathers.

It's because he hasn't grown all his feathers yet.

Okay, Mr. Vet.

He seems weak.

What's going on?

I think this bird is getting worse.

Oh, Ruthie, I'm sorry.

The recording says the Wildlife Rescue Station is open,

but I can't get an actual person on the line.

Maybe we should just go.

I'll go with you.

Same here.

I've got to stay here in case Mom and Dad

need me, but Ruthie, you go with your bird.

I'll take care of Sam and David.

No, I promised Mom

I'd stay with them.

Besides, if Mom needs you at the hospital,

you can't take Sam and David with you.

Yes, I know.

Yes, I-I know it's very difficult,

but she's here alone.

Yes, I'm here, but I'm not her mother.

Oh, man.

She's not coming, is she?

Maybe she'll change her mind.

No, she won't.

My mom is right.

My baby will be better off with a mom and a dad.

Maybe I should reconsider.

I think Eric might be

with the baby's father right now.

That was probably a mistake, too.

But why... why did you listen to me?

Don't you know that I'm a stupid girl

who makes a lot of stupid mistakes?

Maybe there's a reason

the baby came before you found a family.

Maybe it's part of God's plan.

It's going to be okay.

Whatever happens, whatever you decide,

it's going to be okay.

How is it going to be okay?

I don't know, but I know it will.

And I'll be right here.

Thanks.

It was probably a mistake to call my mother anyway.

Yeah, I know it's difficult not to go back

to the should haves and the could haves,

but I think we-we... we have to get beyond that now.

The situation is what it is, and everyone is going to have

to deal with it, since Leanne is in labor as we speak.

But I still don't understand

why she didn't tell anyone before now.

We suspected this might have happened.

But really,

why couldn't she stick to her original plan

of giving the baby up instead of turning our family inside out?

She may go back

to wanting to find a couple to adopt the baby, and...

Maybe I should have told Leanne

to wait to tell you and your son,

but she's having the baby, and...

well, don't you want

to have the option of being there?

She is no more ready to be a mother

than he is to be a father.

Thanks, Mom, but the fact is,

she's gonna be a mother, and I'm the father.

Well, this is wrong.

And Charlie, you have to think about this.

You don't have to go.

You have a future to look forward to,

and it doesn't have to include Leanne.

What kind of a future is there for my child if I'm not there?

Geez! Thanks a lot.

Would you want someone to do this

to you if your son did the same thing?

I'm very sorry, but...

a lawyer I've never heard of referred Leanne to me, and I...

She just came in today, and

everything's happened so quickly.

And yes, actually,

as difficult as it might be,

I think I would want someone to come to me

if my son were in this situation.

Charlie and Leanne have been together since third grade.

She's practically our daughter.

Then they grew up

and graduated from high school.

And she broke his heart.

Just took off without any warning.

She didn't even try to contact Kay or myself.

Does Connie, her mother, know anything about this?

Yes, she does,

but she won't let Leanne come home

until she gives up the baby.

Leanne ate here,

got through school by getting help

with her homework here.

We even took her when she got her braces off.

She was a part of the family.

And now?

I just so wish we had more time, but

your grandchild's about to be born.

So then, what have you been feeding it?

Worms and water.

Oh, great. Don't tell me you actually bought the worms.

Yeah, she said they came from a bait shop.

Those worms have parasites, you know.

Perfect way to kill a baby bird.

If she would

have known, she wouldn't have fed it worms.

How come in cartoons that's all that birds eat?

Get informed.

Hey, Ruthie's been with this bird every minute

trying to keep it alive, and she did the best she could.

Settle down.

Since you haven't been feeding it

for more than a day, I'm sure we can save it.

But next time, no food,

no water, keep the bird in a warm, quiet place,

and bring it here, pronto.

Thanks.

We, uh, we're a non-profit organization,

Hey, Leanne.

Charlie...

I'll leave you two alone.

Hi, Connie, I'm Annie Camden.

Can't you leave me and my daughter alone?

I don't have much time. Leanne's in labor.

Please, won't you come to the hospital

and be with your daughter?

Look, I already told you. I am not going.

I don't want to turn this into a big, emotional event,

because it'd just make it harder on her.

I want Leanne to give up the baby for adoption.

Well, I don't think she's going to do that.

Her decision.

I have seven children of my own,

and they don't always do

what we want them to do, but when they don't,

they need us more than ever. Please?

Leanne practically raised herself.

I was never

a good mother.

I am not the mother type.

Well, now's your chance.

I wonder what it would be like

not to be married and have a baby.

You're never going to find that out.

Do you think Harry is too troubled for me?

I mean, he's nice, but he's troubled.

Yeah, maybe you guys should just be friends.

Well, maybe you could tell him.

No, but I'll be there for you after you tell him.

What?

I don't know.

Talking to you about boys, it-it's nice.

It reminds me of how Mary and I used to talk about boys.

Where have you been?

Taking care of some old business.

Yeah?

Well, I have new business for you.

You want to tell Harry we should just be friends?

No, thanks, I don't do well with that conversation.

But I brought Chinese food home.

Where are Sam and David?

What's in the bag?

I picked up some Chinese food for all of us.

Oh, boy, I'm hungry.

Oh, food! Glorious food!

Let's see what we got.

I think that getting married

is the right thing for them to do.

We all know it's the best thing to do.

Why do I have to be the one to say it?

With a baby, Charlie and Leanne

will be tied together forever now.

And I think they have a shot at a marriage.

Well...

We weren't much older when we got married.

Well, neither was I,

and it didn't work out.

But it can work out.

My son is perfectly capable of being responsible.

And he's already proven that

by coming down here today.

Look, we can talk about this all we want, right?

They're the ones who have to decide.

Nothing is going to be decided today.

Today...

all we can do is be there for them.

So, what happened?

Your bird is going to be fine.

The next time you find a bird...

don't feed it worms.

Hooray!

Thanks, you guys,

for taking it to the Wildlife Rescue Station.

I saved the shoebox just

in case you wanted something to remember the bird by.

Thank you.

Hey, do you have a second?

Sure.

I think we should just be friends. I think we should just be friends.

You thought you were going to be

the first one to say it, huh?

I'm just glad I wasn't the only one to say it.

Oh, my gosh.

You wouldn't believe how tense I was all day

just thinking about telling you.

It's a load off my shoulders, too.

Well, I better get going.

I'll catch a bus.

I'll ask someone to drive you home.

Are you okay?

So that's what you guys were doing over there?

Trying to keep Harry from breaking up with me?

I was going to break up with him.

We're friends.

We're both okay.

You're very lucky.

Take it from me, it doesn't always work that way.

Can you give Harry a ride home?

No problem.

So I guess I'm your ride home.

Hopefully, it won't be my home for very long.

Yeah, I really hope so, for your sake.

That place was a little terrifying.

And I'm sorry if I wasn't more

sympathetic to your situation in the first place.

It's okay.

I faced my fears long ago.

I had to.

Are you getting conned into breaking up with Ruthie?

No, they've already broken up.

It was a mutual decision.

Kevin and Harry and I took the bird Ruthie found

to a rescue station.

It's, uh, going to live.

Oh, that's good news.

So you're not getting married?

Nah, I figured if God would go

to that much trouble for a bird,

surely He'll find a home for me.

Simon made dinner.

Well, not exactly.

The Chinese made dinner.

We love Chinese.

Me, too.

So, how'd it go?

It's still going, but it's going well.

Leanne's mother

and the baby's father and his parents

are all there, and...

they'll work it out.

Not tonight, but they'll work it out.

I just want to say that it's a beautiful thing

being married to a man like Kevin.

And knowing that if at any time I ever need help,

I have all of you in my life.

I hope you remember that as you go back to school.

I know that.

I mean...

I'm going to come back.

I plan on coming back every chance I get.

Camden residence. Camden residence.

Good-bye. Good-bye.

They said to tell everyone it's a boy,

a healthy boy.

The mommy's fine.

Yeah.

To life.
