Kevin and Lucy in “The Long Bad Summer (1)”

Kevin

I love you.

Lucy

I love you, too.

Kevin

It's been a tough summer. You know, ever since you told me you thought that you might be pregnant, I felt really happy, not that you weren't pregnant, but because you will be someday. Someday, you and I will have children together, and I can't wait.

Lucy

Well, I'm afraid you're gonna have to. We're due downstairs for some more family fun.

Kevin

What do you think?

Lucy

About?

Kevin

About having children?

Lucy

I still have two years of school left. I think we'd better wait until I get out of school.

Kevin

If that's what you want.

Lucy

It's not what I want. What I want is to have a baby. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it ever since the scare either. No, we can't. We really can't.

Kevin

I could baby-sit while you go to class. [Lucy chuckles] No, I could.

Lucy

Are you serious? You want to have a baby?

Kevin

I need something life-affirming.

Lucy

We all do.
