Yeah, the baby's... learning to tap-dance I think.
Somebody told me that there was an emergency.
Well, yeah, it's your cousin. (Duncan looks blank) The one from Wisconsin.
Yeah, he's in the chapel. I was gonna call security, but I thought, what am I gonna tell them, I've got this kid who could live forever but he's only safe in churches?
[Duncan walks through a minefield]
When you think of me, when you, you know, if you ever had to describe me to someone else, would you think of me as a nurturing person?
(long pause) Definitely. Is that it?
No! I want you to be honest, OK?
Honest. I mean, tell me the truth, don't think about hurting my feelings.
OK, then, no. Nurturing is not the first thing that comes to mind when I think of you.
Oh, I don't think you know me very well.
Amanda, you're beautiful, you're smart, and you're a lot of fun. Nurturing's in there... it's just not high on the list.
Well, do you think that I would have made a good mother?
Really? I mean, because I could take it if you don't think that, you know, I have it in me.
You would have made a wonderful mother.
[Amanda touches Anne's belly]
Wow... so what's it like?
Oh, like all the cliches. Carrying a watermelon, walking like a duck. And this is the easy part. The tough part comes when she gets here.
Terrified. You know, I'm a single mother, I work crazy shifts and weird hours. She's gonna need me, and the ER's gonna need me, and I haven't figured out how I'm going to make it all work yet.
You know what? I think your going to do great.
