1 [TRAFFIC PASSING.]
[ SLOW DREAMY MUSIC .]
What? I'm working.
What? No, no, no, no.
No.
I'm gonna be a dad? You cannot have a baby with that idiot.
Yo, you hear that? I'm gonna be a dad.
Huh? Oh! Are you keeping it? Bridge, I'll take you to the clinic right now.
We can get it done, bing, bam, boom.
[RAFI LAUGHS.]
I love you.
I hate Rafi.
But you're gonna have to marry him.
[RAFI.]
Bridgette Bird, will you marry me? [JACKIE.]
You were a beautiful baby.
You were the most beautiful baby.
So you're gonna have a beautiful baby.
People love the halfsies.
The ones that are half and half are the most beautiful.
Motherhood is why God put women here.
It's your true calling.
You're gonna get stopped on the street, and people are gonna be like, "Oh, my God, is that a halfsie baby? They're the most beautiful babies.
" 'Cause it's true.
[ZAGGY.]
It's dear to everyone's heart.
But without a guy, how you gonna have a kid? Motherhood is the most fulfilling work for a woman.
It truly is.
Where do you think the term "motherfucker" came up? [LAUGHS.]
[TUTU.]
Your children will resent you for working.
[JACKIE.]
And for being a stay-at-home mom.
[TUTU.]
It's basically indentured servitude, Bridge.
[JACKIE.]
And then you're gonna die poor and alone.
- [TUTU CHUCKLES.]
- [JACKIE LAUGHS.]
- So here's to you.
- Cheers.
[TUTU.]
Cheers.

[ UPBEAT POP MUSIC .]
[BRIDGE MOANS.]
Like, this is gonna make or break his life.
I still think his name should be Adolfo.
We're not naming our kid after Hitler.
Adolfo.
It's my grandfather's name.
Means wolf.
Freedom, inteligencia, libertad.
- It's the same exact spelling.
- You know, natural instincts.
- It's not the same - Plus an O.
Yeah, but it doesn't mean the same thing.
There's a lot of words that change when you put a O after it.
Yeah, Hitler and Hitlero.
- Right.
- Same thing.
"Hitlero" sounds like a cereal.
"Hitler" sounds like a serial killer.
That's a good point.
Adolfo Gonzalez.
Why do we even have to use Gonzalez anyways? Why not? What else would we name the kid? You hate your dad.
You hate your dad.
Yeah, that's why I have my mother's name.
Look, it's one thing for you not to take my name, but for my son? No way.
Okay, how about we take him out of my body, put him in your stomach, you squeeze him out your dick, then we name him Adolfo Gonzalez? [MOANING.]
[ GENTLE MUSIC .]
[FIONA.]
All right, so I'm going to take a little listen to his little heart.
- [BRIDGE.]
Okay.
- [FIONA.]
Okay.
- Mm.
- You hear that? - Mm-hmm.
- Yeah? Rafi, you hear that? - Oh, wow.
- Sweet.
- Does it sound okay? - He sounds gorgeous.
It's perfect.
It's 140.
And I want to just check his position.
[SIGHS.]
So there he is.
Okay, honey.
- Good job.
Yeah? - Thanks.
Thank you.
Okay.
Good.
- Okay.
- So - Okay.
- anything else? Any fears, any kind of shames, anything like that going on just could sort of delay the labor process.
Good thing he's not pushing the baby out.
- Bridgette.
- I was making a funny joke.
I was making a funny.
[LAUGHS.]
And, Rafi, all sober? - It's all good? - [RAFI.]
All good.
[FIONA.]
So anything? Yeah, I mean, as long as it really just was a kiss, then I think we're good, right? It was just a kiss? 'Cause if you were lying about it, it would really it would delay the labor process.
Babe, I wouldn't lie about that.
- It was just a kiss.
- [BRIDGE.]
Okay.
So it's just a kiss, we're all good.
- [FIONA.]
Okay.
- It's just a kiss.
Excellent.
So, Bridge let it go.
- Me? Oh, no.
- [FIONA.]
Yeah.
It seems to me that your ego is still hanging on to the Shaunie thing.
Just just let it go.
Just let it go, babe.
You're gonna kiss a woman and you're gonna rub my shoulder and say, "Let it go"? It's one thing for her to say it.
But for you to say it is fucked up.
- I guess I am still - [FIONA.]
Just a little.
hanging on to it.
- [FIONA.]
Mm-hmm.
- Okay.
He's the one who gets mad when I say hi to a guy.
I don't do that anymore.
When, starting today? And I've said I'm sorry, like, a million times.
Why are you saying that to her? You're doing a great, great job, Rafi.
I'm doing great too.
Yes, you are.
Anything you want to share? Well, my-my biggest secret Mm.
Oh, God.
I really just want to be a good father.
I want to provide for the baby.
I want to provide for Bridgette.
I want to give them everything they need.
I mean, babe, think about it.
You got pregnant while you were on the pill.
Not really.
I mean, I was very inconsistent.
[CHUCKLES.]
I believe in us is all I'm saying.
I believe in you too.
I think that's beautiful.
You're such a lovely - Ow! - [FIONA.]
Okay.
I know.
- [GROANING.]
- Yeah.
All right.
Here we go.
Okay, honey.

[HUMMING.]
- Oh, God.
- Good job.
Good job.
- That really hurt.
- That did hurt.
I know.
I know, but - It did hurt me.
- the key is, just let go and unclench.
Do you think we should do this in a hospital? I just wanna be safe.
We have just gone through nine months of work together - to have a home birth.
- Bridgette.
And on the day, you're gonna suggest go to the hospital? You're scaring me, Bridgette.
I almost had a heart attack.
It's normal.
It's an option to go to the hospital.
It's also an option to stay at home.
- It's an option.
- But look.
Just get some protein.
Go have a little fun, okay? - Okay.
- Make love, and go up and down some stairs.
- We can do some stairs.
Okay.
- Yeah.
You're one or two centimeters, so tomorrow, maybe the next day.
Tomorrow? Or the next day.
- Oh.
- Yeah? - Okay.
- Yeah.
[RAFI.]
So I have a question.
Why do you always have to embarrass me in front of her? [BRIDGE.]
What are you talking about? You paint me out to be, like, this crazy, possessive boyfriend or whatever.
Well, that's because you are that.
Oh, and you're so, like, put together and sweet and nice and perfect, or what? [BRIDGE.]
Just chill out.
Stop acting like that, I'll stop calling you that.
You know what? You're such an ice queen.
[GROANS.]
You know, you're like a frozen fuckin' tundra.
- Stop being so sensitive.
- Oh, yeah? Push me again.
Push me again and see what happens.
Push me again, see what happens.

[BOTH MOANING.]
What? I don't feel like we have space.
Wanna go behind the dumpster? No.
That's gross.
What? I just feel like I'm gonna hurt the baby.
Okay.
That's fine.
[SIGHS.]
Once upon a time, you'd fuck me anywhere.
I mean, you'd really fuck anything anywhere.
Now I'm gonna be a mom, and you don't want to have sex with me.
And if we don't have sex, what's the point? You know, everything's over anyways.
Baby, we're getting married.
It's just the beginning.
It's not over.
- Bridgette, look at me.
- What? You don't have to worry about anything ever again.
That's my point.
What's your point, Bridge? I don't get it.
Just that we're not really gonna move to New York, are we? Of course we're gonna move to New York.
But, like, how am I supposed to work and have a kid? It's been done, babe.
I promise you.
I just wanted to be classy.
I wanted to travel and just I mean, I've never even been to Maine.
[LAUGHS.]
Baby, you'll go to Maine.
But can I be classy? Of course you can be classy.
But it's gonna be as a mom.
Like, a classy mom who just [SIGHS.]
I know how much you love me.
I do love you.
I do.
You want to go to Pino's? Get a slice of pizza? - Yeah.

But then again, I took the meds, you know.
No pain, no pain.
That's what I think.
You know.
- Watermelon? - Go fuck yourself.
[MOANS.]
[FIONA.]
Just relax, Bridge.
[MOANS.]
[RAFI.]
I don't know what she wants.
Well, if she said, "Fuck you," that usually means she doesn't want what you're doing.
I don't know what to do.
What should I do? Listen to me, okay? Possums, they have 20 babies in each litter, and you know what? The mom only has 13 teats.
You know what that means? Seven of them are not gonna make it.
But they have those babies, and there's possums everywhere, and she's gonna be able to do it, Rafi.
You get out there, and you love her.
Okay.
Okay.
[MOANS.]
[LEIGH.]
Okay, you're doing great.
Do you need anything? Should I clean some of this up? [FIONA.]
Yeah, there's some rags right over there.
[TUTU ECHOING.]
Is that normal, what she's doing? The dripping of the blood? [FIONA.]
It's completely normal.
- [TUTU.]
It's normal? - [FIONA.]
Yeah.
It's called bloody show.
Okay, well, I had two children, and I didn't have any of this, so you think it's time maybe to go to the hospital? Yeah, well, you were probably lying down.
I was.
That's right.
You're right about that.
We don't need to go to the hospital.
She's fine.
[BRIDGE MOANING.]
[BRIDGE.]
I'm just gonna sit.
Okay, let me just grab you a towel, okay? Mm, okay.

- Rafi.
[TUTU.]
Bridgette was, like, stuck right in there - Tell her to be quiet.
- Huh? - [TUTU.]
You know what they did? - Tell her to be quiet.
[TUTU.]
They put this prong thing in, and they sucked her head right out.
- [FIONA.]
Right.
- Do you have any of those? - We're not doing it that way.
- Oh.
[FIONA.]
We're doing it differently.
Okay, I just thought that was standard - Please, please, just - Rafi, I'm doing the best I I know.

He is not going to come out your butthole.
He is coming out your vagina.

Yes, you can, Bridgette.
I can't do this.

[TUTU.]
Bridgey.
Hi.
[TUTU.]
He's a fighter.
He's a Bird.
[TUTU CHUCKLES.]
[TUTU.]
He's a beauty.
And I'm his grandma.
Yeah, you are.
What's he gonna call you? Tutu.
What's Tutu? That's Hawaiian for Grandma, and you know I've always wanted to be Hawaiian.
- [CHUCKLES.]
- Okay.
This is my chance right here.
- Okay, Tutu.
- [LAUGHTER.]
Look at him.
Hello.
[LAUGHS.]
Ha'ina 'ia mai Ana ka puana Kaulana kou inoa Pu'uanahulu
[ SLOW DREAMY MUSIC .]
What? I'm working.
What? No, no, no, no.
No.
I'm gonna be a dad? You cannot have a baby with that idiot.
Yo, you hear that? I'm gonna be a dad.
Huh? Oh! Are you keeping it? Bridge, I'll take you to the clinic right now.
We can get it done, bing, bam, boom.
[RAFI LAUGHS.]
I love you.
I hate Rafi.
But you're gonna have to marry him.
[RAFI.]
Bridgette Bird, will you marry me? [JACKIE.]
You were a beautiful baby.
You were the most beautiful baby.
So you're gonna have a beautiful baby.
People love the halfsies.
The ones that are half and half are the most beautiful.
Motherhood is why God put women here.
It's your true calling.
You're gonna get stopped on the street, and people are gonna be like, "Oh, my God, is that a halfsie baby? They're the most beautiful babies.
" 'Cause it's true.
[ZAGGY.]
It's dear to everyone's heart.
But without a guy, how you gonna have a kid? Motherhood is the most fulfilling work for a woman.
It truly is.
Where do you think the term "motherfucker" came up? [LAUGHS.]
[TUTU.]
Your children will resent you for working.
[JACKIE.]
And for being a stay-at-home mom.
[TUTU.]
It's basically indentured servitude, Bridge.
[JACKIE.]
And then you're gonna die poor and alone.
- [TUTU CHUCKLES.]
- [JACKIE LAUGHS.]

I still think his name should be Adolfo.
We're not naming our kid after Hitler.
Adolfo.
It's my grandfather's name.
Means wolf.
Freedom, inteligencia, libertad.
- It's the same exact spelling.
- You know, natural instincts.
- It's not the same - Plus an O.
Yeah, but it doesn't mean the same thing.
There's a lot of words that change when you put a O after it.
Yeah, Hitler and Hitlero.
- Right.
- Same thing.
"Hitlero" sounds like a cereal.
"Hitler" sounds like a serial killer.
That's a good point.
Adolfo Gonzalez.
Why do we even have to use Gonzalez anyways? Why not? What else would we name the kid? You hate your dad.
You hate your dad.
Yeah, that's why I have my mother's name.
Look, it's one thing for you not to take my name, but for my son? No way.

Just that we're not really gonna move to New York, are we? Of course we're gonna move to New York.
