You're having a baby? Seriously?
Yup.
I don't believe it.
You? What about me?
What about Frank?
[Camera cuts to Frank and Michael in Michael's office]
I was fine, once I came to. [shakes head] At first I thought she was joking.
So would I. You had no inkling?
[shakes head] None, none. After Jeremy was born they said Denise couldn't have more kids. [pauses] We haven't worried about birth control since.
[Camera cuts back to Claudia Joy and Denise]
You always said you wanted more children.
I meant twenty years ago. Talk about a late gift.
Oh, you're healthy, you're strong. This is a blessing. It's exciting.
Try terrifying. Well, you know the risks at our age. Chromosome problems, pre-eclampsia, even diabetes. I just thought I was past all this long time ago.
Having kids keeps you younger.
[Camera cuts back to Frank and Michael]
[horrified] Oh God. I feel old. I'm gonna be that guy sitting at a little league game with the ice cream dribbling down his chin. Other parents are gonna think I'm someone's grandpa.
[chuckles] Who cares what they think? I'd say this calls for a drink.
At nine in the morning?
It's four in the afternoon in Baghdad.
Roger that.
[Camera cuts back to Denise and Claudia Joy]
Don't you have anything stronger?
Not for nine months, my friend.
Oh, I just realized that I will be packing lunch boxes when I'm fifty.
