That the script is really just an outline.
Okay.
All right, everyone, here we go.
Bob and amy, you're on the couch.
Teddy enters from over there.
Now remember, guys, This is just a rehearsal so use your scripts.
And action.
"teddy, can you come here a minute?" "teddy crosses to the couch, nervous.
'am I in trouble' question mark.
" No no no, kimmy, just the lines, honey.
Not the other stuff, okay? And action.
"teddy, we need to talk to you.
" "am I in trouble?" "well, I'll just say it.
- Your mother's gonna have a baby.
" - Okay, can we stop? Can we stop? I'm sorry.
These words they just don't fit into my mouth comfortably.
But it's what happened.
It's exactly what you said.
The day you were supposed to be wearing scrubs.
Okay, valid point, but do we want to make it real.
Or do we want to make it good? I want to make it before my battery dies.
Yeah.
Well, that new bike sure is a beauty.
Sure is, dad.
- All right.
Have fun.
- Okay.
- Gabe, before you go - Yeah? - One quick question.
- Mm-hmm.
You know that garage door remote that charlie had? - Mm-hmm.
- How do you think she got that down from the cupboard? - Maybe you should ask charlie.
- Yeah, well, - You know I can't do that.
- Oh, because she can't talk yet.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, that is a bummer.
Yeah, it sure is.
All right.
You know what? I'll see you later.
Okay.
You know what? Just one more thing.
Mm-hmm.
You know, I don't even think.
That remote works from the kitchen where charlie was.
Dad, what are you trying to say? Are you accusing me of something? No, I just wanna know when you're gonna be back.
Oh, half an hour.
Can I go now? Of course you can, gabe.
You've always been free to go.
Okay.
Okay okay, there she is.
Now I'm going to prove to you that she likes me.
- And not you.
- Okay.
Okay.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Hi.
So far it's a tie.
Okay, I know we both have a lot to offer, But you're gonna have to choose between us.
Oh, I choose p.
J.
Okay, let's try that again.
And remember it's a multiple-choice question.
My choice is still p.
J.
I'm sorry, I can't go out with you.
I wouldn't do that to emmett.
Pals before gals.
- Thanks, man.
- You'd do the same for me, right? Yeah, let's go with that.
Wait a minute.
I know what's going on here.
- You think I'm nina.
- You're not? No! I'm tina.
That's nina.
Twins! Wait.
What are we doing? And then I could say, "teddy girl, mama's having a baby child!" Right? Right? Isn't that better? Doesn't it make more sense.
That amy would tell teddy about the baby? "mama's having a baby child"? Well, teddy, I'm just trying to find.
The emotional truth to the piece.
No thank you.
Okay, fine.
You want me to be a robot, I'll be a robot.
I'll be a robot.
Am I in troue? No.
No no no no no.
Nobody's a robot.
We're doing the script as written.
Okay, places everyone.
And action.
Teddy, can you come here a minute? Am I in trouble? Teddy, we need to talk to you.
Well, I'll just say it Your mother's gonna have a baby.
A what? A baby.
You're gonna have.
A new little brother or sister.
- Oh! - Now what are you doing? I just felt the baby kick.
No.
No no no.
That's impossible.
The baby doesn't have feet yet.
Okay.
You know what? I'm just trying.
To figure out the mix of emotions th I was feeling that day.
You know, the excitement, the confusion, The fear, the hormones.
Yeah, do you know what I was feeling that day? It was "why are you having another baby? You barely have time for the three kids you have now.
" Was that in the script? Because I'm lost.
Teddy honey, What was that? I'm sorry, mom.
I shouldn't have said that.
Well, is that really how you felt? Were you really mad that we were having another baby? - Yeah, I kinda was.
- Why didn't you say something? Mom, what was I supposed to say? Charlie was on the way.
You were all so excited.
Excited? I didn't know how we were gonna make it all work.
- I was terrified.
- Really? 'Cause you didn't show it.
That's because I'm a really great actress.
Come here.
Sit down.
Do you still feel that way, Like we don't have enough time for you? Actually, today I thought maybe you had.
A little bit too much time for me.
No.
Seriously, I don't know how you're doing it, But you guys are doing a great job.
Well, that's because we're not doing it alone, And one of the big reasons it works is you.
The boys help out too.
But you're right, it's mostly me.
Look, teddy.
In the future, If ever you're feeling something, you've got to tell me, okay? Come here.
Come here.
I want us to always be honest with each other.
Okay, I'll be honest with you.
Say the lines as written or you're fired.
Aww.
What's the matter, gabe? Um, dad are you okay? You look shook up.
- Wheelie's back.
- I know! Isn't it great? Yay.
Um How did you find him? Oh, I came home from work, I saw that kidake on your bike, So I called the cops and they arrested him.
They arrested jake? But he's just a kid.
Ooh, he won't be when he gets out.
What? What's wrong, son? Something bothering you? Um No.
No? Well, something's bothering me, Because here's what I think really happened.
First, you sold your bike to jake And then you pocketed the money.
Then you opened the garage door Using the keypad.
Finally, you grabbed the remote From the kitchen cabinet And you planted it on charlie.
Interesting theory, but it doesn't prove a thing.
You're right.
You're right.
I didn't have any hard proof, But I kept thinking, thinking.
And thinking.
And then a bell went off.
- Is gabe here? - No.
Tell him jake wants his $10 back.
This bike is a piece of junk.
All right, you got me.
Now what happens? Ask your mother.
Back from the bike store.
Charlie, your brother has something he would like to say to you.
Go ahead, gabe.
Charlie, I'm sorry I tried to frame you.
Aw.
Remember the first time I said that to you? Like it was yesterday.
And now here is a little I'm-sorry present from your brother.
Okay, bring it in.
- Oh.
- Yay! Yeah, we exchanged gabe's new bike for this one.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Charlie, there you are on your very first bike.
Yeah yeah.
Teddy girl, Mama's baby child has a new tricycle! It's pink and red and it's got little stickers on it.
Yup, and there's mom stealing your very first spotlight.
Good luck, charlie.
I feel so bad.
I just can't tell them apart.
- It is hard.
- And I don't want to offend them.
Well, you just have to find one little thing that's different.
What do you think? I have no idea, and I'm married to one of them.
Hey, uh, dads, Can I have five bucks? Huh.
I love having two dads.
Unbelievable! Well! Let figure it out! Wait.
Wait.
Yup.
That's my guy.
