Baby Fever (2022) s01e05 Episode Script

1 Obviously we need to address this.
And I hope we can work together to get to get to the bottom of this issue.
Um, sorry.
I thought you were in the conference room.
It's fine, Nana.
Just sit down.
Uh, Niels-Anders, did we get any closer to Well, to knowing what went wrong with regards to the woman with the wrong sperm? First of all, I would like to clarify that it was New Anton who didn't cross-check the identification number on the sperm straw before I inseminated the client.
Yes.
And Niels-Anders, you should know that I'm not trying to put the blame on you.
I think it would be best to remove the the issue of blame, altogether.
Yeah, and it's not exactly Anton's fault that it was the, uh, wrong sperm, is it? So, if you're implying that this is our fault, then let me remind you, if Simone hadn't been such a scatter brain, and forgotten to set the alarm, then we wouldn't be here to begin with, would we? - I'd say I agree.
You're right.
- Especially Great.
Yeah.
- Yeah, but - Great.
Let's just talk about the facts.
Uh, the current situation is we've "persuaded" the client to not pursue the matter and naturally, as precaution, she took - Yeah.
- a morning-after pill.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
You're quite right, Carsten.
Uh, I was thinking we could come to some sort of agreement - over the, uh, financial compensation.
- Mm.
We're not paying.
It's simple.
Uh, I don't know New Anton, but I already told you I think it's only fair that Simone pays.
Jannick, we don't really know what went on.
Surely, the arrow doesn't just point to Simone.
Well, that's kind of the nature of arrows.
They usually point one way.
Otherwise, it's just a line.
If she ends up getting pregnant with a wrong baby because I fucked up the clinic will lose all of its clients, and it will end up going under because I didn't set the alarm.
They didn't do their job properly at all! This is not your fault.
- I'm going to get sacked.
- I promise, you won't.
You are not getting sacked.
If anyone's getting sacked, it'll be New Anton.
Sometimes I forget that you're my best friend as well as my union representative.
It's a good combo.
Like this.
I fixed the steamer.
So you can make - Thanks.
- That's a heart.
It's very good.
Thanks.
I made it for you.

- Right.
And he's publishing his long-awaited Eurovision book.
So of course they wanted me to sing.
It's at Café Liva tomorrow at 8 p.
m.
I've already told you Jørgen will be there.
He's really looking forward to seeing you.
- I can't - And this year is the 25th anniversary of the song.
So I thought that that you wouldn't want to miss it.
- Yeah, I'm afraid that - But I don't know whether I should Whether I go solo or I ask them to get a pianist.
What do you think? One second.
Nana? Have you been bingeing again? Seriously.

Uh, yeah, I've got plans.

You, uh, just have to be patient, but the coffee turns out good.
You're a doctor here? No.
I'm a physio.
I help with pain management for pregnant women.
In my day, we just put up with it, so, I so I just had pelvic pain the entire pregnancy.
- Mm.
- The pain was horrific.
- Sounds like a hell pregnancy.

Just tell me what you mean by, - "Oh, I see.
" - Well, it's just He's a little boring, isn't he? - I mean, just - You've gotta see that, for Christ's sake.
I I wasn't in love with your father, either.
Mum, seriously, stop it.
She can't just waltz in here in sequins.
It's so mental.
It's also really funny.
- Yeah.
- It is.
It's really funny.
She's not like anyone else, is she? I don't think it comes naturally to her.
Being a mother.
I get the sense that she's, um, not always been there in a conventional way.
One time when she was wasted, she told me she wanted an abortion.
- What? - Well, she didn't say she wanted one, she said she almost had one, at a 12-week limit.
You can't just say that.
Does she just think you should know, or? My mum's mental.
Well, I think it's good that you're going out with Soren tonight.
- Well, not any more.
- Why? Well, she asked if she could stay at mine.
Uh, you can still go out with him tonight, Nana.
Even if she's staying at your house, oh, yes, you can go.
It'll be great.
Oh, come on.
Nana? - Nana! Do you have a screwdriver? - What for? - We need to loosen - What you doing? We need to loosen this, so it can go around and onto the right side.
It shouldn't go on that side.
It's So, the leg goes It has to go down.
- But that's the leg.
- Yes, of course, that's the leg.
Yeah, that's the leg.
- It goes there.
- It goes this way.
- Don't just stand.
- It's the leg of the bed You'll have to show me what you mean.
- Here.
- Why are you taking the mattress off? - It goes on top, so you can So you can - On top? So you can lie on top.
Look.
Sorry.
Did you think you had to sleep under the bed.
- Silly.
- On top of the bed.
You know, it would look better if you got some colour in here.
Painted the walls.
- I'll get you a duvet.
- Then maybe some bookshelves and ornaments.
Oh, dear, it's a little too soft.
- Maybe I should just sleep with you.
- No, no.
- You wouldn't be comfortable like that.
- I don't take that much space, Nana.
Uh, yeah, no.
You won't be comfortable like that.
- Neither of us will, or I won't.
- The thing is, I can't sleep with my feet hanging off.
Well, can't you just move up? Well, as soon as I move up here like this No, I really don't want it.
- It's a bed.
Your head needs to go - Well, I'm not doing it.
- Here, Mum.
- You know why? - It feels like I'm going to tip over.
- Listen.
- Your feet go there.
- And I feel like it's gonna collapse.
Your head goes that end.
It's Okay, fine.
You sleep in my bed, and I'll stay here.
- No, sweetie.
That's not what I meant.
- Mum, you sleep in my bed, - and I'll sleep here.
Okay, Mum.
- I didn't mean it like that.
- I'm sleeping here and - Okay, you sleep here if you want to.
- Good.
Come on.
Go to your room.
- Go ahead.
I'll go.
All right.
- Come on.
- Let's sit a second.
Come on.
Let's just sit for a moment.
- Why? - See the day out and all that, no? Okay.
And this blood test is 100 percent accurate? Yep.
Uh, the blood tests are really sensitive to the hormones.
Much more than the home tests.
There's no doubt.
You are pregnant.
I don't want it.
It It is often very overwhelming when it finally happens after trying for so long.
Tobias left me.
Uh He he met someone else at at his work.
I'm really sorry.
That's Do you do abortions? No, we don't do that here.
But I I really encourage you to give it give it some time to think it through, so you can be certain.
This is a big deal.
In a couple more years I don't think Tobias will matter much.
You'll have a very different kind of love in your arms.
Some water? - Yes, please.
- Okay.
I'm not keeping it.
I just can't.
Fucking idiot.
This is Helle Svane.
Yeah, I This is Mads Knudsen from BT newspaper.

They offered me some money, - which I don't want.
