The Secret Life of the American Teenager s02e24 Episode Script

Previously on "the secret life of the American teenager" - So about John - You gonna take him on the weekends? This is something that you and Ricky need to work out on your own.
Ricky's not gonna get John.
If you don't give Ricky what he wants, he'll go to court.
Have you ever seen my bedroom? [chuckles.]
We wanna get to know John, and we wanna make sure he gets to know us.
Probably the best thing is for you to get a mediation.
I might wanna have real sex after Betty and Leo's wedding.
- Are we thinking about having sex? - We are.
Are you excited about the wedding? Of course.
You're gonna be there, right? After all you've done for me, I wouldn't miss it for anything.
I don't wanna be friends with you.
Not just friends.
I'm wrong, and he's right.
Ricky should be able to take John on the weekends.
Very good decision.
That was the right thing to do.
And now I don't get to have John on his first birthday.
You'll work it out.
You and I can plan the party together.
You can get birth control pills at the free clinic, but I suggest you ask your mother.
You have to be on the pill at least a month before they really get started.
I hope that's why I'm late.
[Phone ringing.]
- Hi.
What do you need? - [Ricky.]
I don't need anything.
I just thought we should talk about John's birthday party.
[Scoffs.]
How much do we need to talk about it? It's just your family and my family at the park tomorrow afternoon around 5, and then after the party, you take him home.
Mom's making a birthday cake, and you're doing everything else.
Okay.
Like what? Like bringing food for everyone.
What kind of food? Just get some wings.
Chicken wings? Do you want beer with that? - What? - Wings? I love wings.
Don't you know I love wings? No.
And I the think the question is, does John love wings? - It's his birthday.
Wouldn't he choke? - Fine.
Uh, nuggets.
I have to go.
I'm trying to be nice here and include you in planning the party.
Why are you rushing off the phone? Because I have to get John to bed.
He's not in bed yet? No.
Do you have a problem with that? No, I don't.
But his birthday is tomorrow, so I hope he gets plenty of sleep.
I just want everything to be right.
I never had a birthday party until I lived with my foster parents.
I don't know a lot about this stuff.
It doesn't have to be anything fancy.
It's not as much for him as it is for us and our parents.
Celebrating his first birthday and getting through this first year together.
He won't even remember it, but we will, so I don't know.
Bring some sandwiches from the deli.
Some chips, maybe some balloons.
Yeah, get some balloons.
He loves balloons.
Yeah.
And we'll just hang out for a bit, and that's it.
After the park, you'll take him home and have your first weekend together.
- Not a big deal.
- Taking him the first weekend isn't a big deal? His birthday.
John's first birthday is not a big deal? Well, it's a big deal, but it's not that big of a deal.
I'm surprised you feel that way.
And I'm happy you feel that way, Amy.
I'm glad I called you.
I feel a lot better.
The pressure's off.
Thanks.
You're welcome.
See you tomorrow at the park.
All right, Amy.
Good night.
Good night.
Good night.
John.
[Phone clatters.]
[Sighs.]
It's just me and you, kid.
Me and you.
All right.
So what no one knows is this: You and I are gonna have your birthday party right now.
It was a year ago that you started making your way here, so I figured, why not? And any time that daddy has you on a birthday or a holiday, we'll have our party the night before.
You wanna do that? All right.
I know.
Okay, we're gonna blow it out.
Ready? One, two, three.
Whoa.
Yay.
[clapping.]
Okay.
Ready? [Camera shutter clicks.]
[Laughs.]
Okay, you wanna open your present, huh? You wanna open your present from mama? All right.
[Shutter clicking.]
"Falling in love, is such an easy thing to do.
Birds can do it, we can do it, let's stop talking let's get to it, let's fall in love.
" Amy.
Hey, I just saw John in the nursery.
Why does he have on a suit? It's his birthday.
We got up early and then fell asleep.
Are you gonna have him dressed up all day? Why not? What was on his face? Are you okay? You look funny.
It's Mimsy.
Her nurse just called.
They think she might've suffered a small stroke last night.
I have to go up there, Amy.
I don't know if I'm gonna be able to get back this afternoon, but I'll try.
- Wait.
Try, mom? It's John's first birthday.
- I know, Amy.
I know.
Wait.
What was on his face? Uh, breakfast.
Really? 'Cause it looked more like cake with frosting.
Okay, you got me.
It was a cupcake.
I gave him a cupcake.
[Scoffs.]
Amy, did you wake up this morning, and have a birthday party with John all by yourself, just the two of you? No.
Not exactly.
What if we did? Well, then, I guess the rest of us who went through his first year with you missed it.
But if that's what you wanted You're his mother, so I guess that's how it is.
Well, that's not what I wanted.
You know what I wanted.
I wanted him to be here with me this weekend when it was his birthday.
I didn't know you were gonna miss the real party the one at the park.
Mimsy had a stroke, Amy.
At least they think that she did.
I have to go to her.
She's in the hospital.
She's my mother.
Well, if she's in the hospital, she's being taken care of.
- You can't wait until tomorrow? - No, I can't.
If you wanted me at the party, then maybe you could've included me in the one you just had.
I just said I didn't know you were leaving, - otherwise maybe I would've.
- "Maybe," huh, Amy? What happened to the girl last week who stood up and did the right thing? - Where is she?- I wouldn't have stood up if I had known that Ricky would get John for his birthday.
This is completely unfair.
Well, life's not always fair, Amy, but I guess you know that.
I have to go.
I have to.
Wait.
I hope Mimsy's okay.
I really do.
Thanks.
Okay, I'm just gonna go put a few things in the bag in case we have to stay.
Wait, wait.
"We" as in you and Robbie, right? Dad's not going up there with you, is he? Mom, I don't wanna go to the party with just Ashley.
Amy, you know how much Mimsy loves your dad.
Yeah.
And I know how much dad loves his grandson.
I thought I did.
Mom, it's John's first birthday.
I know, Amy.
I know.
It's lousy timing, but I can't help it.
I can't.
Can't dad stay up there and let you come home? Amy, she's my mother! Yeah, I know, but I'm your daughter.
Look, this is difficult enough as it is, Amy.
Don't make it harder.
[Scoffs.]
Hey, kiddo.
Your mom got a call.
The nurse thinks Mimsy might've had a stroke.
We don't know for sure, so we gotta drive up there.
We may have to miss John's birthday party.
- It's probably nothing.
- So I don't have to go to school? Not "we" as the entire family, just "we" as in your mother and me.
Oh, isn't the divorce part of the family? - Not my doing.
- Yeah, I know.
Uh, look, do you mind if I go on the pill? What pill? What are you talking about? You know, birth control pills.
For what? Skin problems? You have beautiful skin.
You don't need birth control pills.
- Dear God in heaven, I'll kill him.
Kill who? - You tell me.
- I'm assuming Grant.
It's not his idea.
I just thought this being the anniversary of the baby event, that I'm reminded of how important it is to use birth control if you're gonna have sex.
Please, don't have sex.
You won't like it.
It's not fun.
- Dad - It's not.
Just take my word for it.
All right.
Just so I'm clear, have you had sex? - No.
- Oh, good.
- So this is still under discussion, right? - Right.
You're too young.
Just because you and Grant have all the working parts doesn't mean the parts should be working together.
They shouldn't.
It's fine if they work alone, but not together.
I really like Grant.
I do.
He's a great guy.
But you don't want to have a baby with him, do you? No.
That's why I'm asking for birth control.
Yeah, but any time you have sex, even if you're using birth control, things can go wrong.
And besides, that's what sex is for making babies.
Yeah, for making babies and having fun.
No, no, no.
I told you, it's not fun.
Not for you.
Not for the girl.
Come on, dad.
That's not true.
All right.
But there are a lot of ways to have fun without having sex.
Yeah, I know.
It's just, like, Grant and I have been making out a lot, and I'm really enjoying making out with him, and at some point, we might wanna do more than that.
But I just wanna make sure I don't make any mistakes.
You're not gonna make any mistakes.
Well, I'm sure everyone who makes a mistake thinks that.
All right.
Years from now, when you're 18, then you can have sex, if it's with the right person and for the right reason, and I'll totally sanction you using the pill as well as any and all other forms of birth control.
But, Ashley, please, please, please wait until you're out of high school.
- I turn 18 before I get out of high school.
- Okay, so we'll compromise.
It doesn't have to be after you get out of high school, but wait until you're 18, and then I promise I won't fight you on this, if the aforementioned circumstances exist at that time.
All right.
I'll agree to that.
- But I wanna be on the pill anyway just in case.
- No.
There is no "just in case.
" Make sure there's no "just in case.
" Don't let things go that far.
Well, I don't think I would let things go that far.
But I'm sure lots of people don't think things will go that far, and then they do.
- What people? - Oh, don't make me say it.
Me and your mother? Me and Cindy? Me and Kathleen? Who you talking about? - Kathleen? - Well, no, not Kathleen.
We were actually married first.
And you should be married first, too.
But I'll go with 18.
What happened, Ashley? I mean, what prompted all this? Did you and Grant do something? I swear I won't be upset with you.
- I just want you to tell me the truth.
- I am telling you the truth.
We haven't done anything, and I don't think we will.
Dad, I can see how it can happen, how even the most experienced girl can get pregnant.
What are you talking about? Amy wasn't the most experienced.
Adrian she's the most experienced, and The first thing you should do is tell your mother.
On her wedding day? They're getting married today at some judge's chambers.
I have to go there after school.
- Well, that'll be nice.
- No, it's not.
Not for me.
I'm not getting married.
I'm just having a baby.
You think you're having a baby.
You don't know for sure if you're having a baby.
You're just late.
You can be late for all types of reasons.
Stress Stress Stress or Just get an early pregnancy test and find out, okay? I don't think you're pregnant, but if you are pregnant, then you need to find out as soon as possible and let Ricky know.
- Ricky? - Yeah.
Ricky, right? Adrian? Not Ricky.
Not Ben? No.
No, Adrian, not Ben.
Okay.
The stupid condom broke, and I'm on a new pill, and And there's a chance it could still be Ricky's? No.
It could still be Ricky's if you say it's Ricky's and not Ben's.
What? Who do you wanna marry, Ricky or Ben? I don't wanna marry anyone.
I'm not having a baby if I'm having a baby.
Adrian, you know how I feel about abortion.
But you're okay with lying about who the father is? I'm just trying to protect Ben.
Oh.
And if you are pregnant with Ben's baby, then please don't tell him this weekend.
His father's getting married, and he's so happy right now.
Okay, can we just think about me here? I'm the one who'd be having the abortion, not happy Ben.
No, no, no, Adrian.
That's not an option.
I mean, you didn't get raped by some criminal or your father.
You had consensual sex with a guy you like, a guy you're friends with.
You have to step up and take responsibility here.
I am taking responsibility here.
Look, I'm gonna have to do what I have to do.
I am not having a baby and ruining my life like Amy did.
And besides, I can't be a mother like Amy is.
There's no way I'm gonna work at a church nursery and come home and take care of a baby and then get up to go to my senior year in high school.
That's not gonna happen.
Well, we can talk about all that later, and we can talk about other options like adoption.
But first we need to figure out if there's even anything to talk about or not.
If you are thinking about terminating the pregnancy, which I'm not for But this isn't about me, it's about you Then you need to find out as soon as possible.
So let's go get an early pregnancy test and find out, okay? Well, we can do that, but I think I already know.
I know the birthday party is just for family, but I mean, come on.
We are your family.
Yeah.
We've been your family forever.
Not just last year, all the years long before Ricky.
Well, I'm happy you feel that way, because if you're my family, then you'll support me during what promises to be a rotten day.
Well, rotten weekend, if you plan on going to the wedding.
Or if you're not going.
Rotten either way.
Support.
I need support.
That is not supporting me.
Well, what if we just happened to be at the park? - Then could we come? - Yeah.
[Sighs.]
- Poor Amy.
- Yeah.
So what are you gonna wear to the wedding? Something sexy.
Me, too.
So, are you and Jack still gonna do it? - Are you and Jesse? - Okay, this isn't a sex pact.
You don't need to know if I'm gonna do it with Jesse before you decide if you're gonna do it with Jack.
I know.
But are you? Well, he wants me to talk to my mother first.
How weird is that? Well, you're not gonna do that, right? No.
Are you? Well, I might talk to my stepmother about it.
Do you have birth control pills? No, but I have condoms.
Yeah.
I asked Jack to do that.
I didn't know what to get.
I mean, do they come in sizes? Yeah, they do.
And the wrong size condom can be less effective.
Hmm.
That makes sense.
I mean, men come in different sizes, don't they? I assume so.
We come in different sizes.
Yeah.
Well, like I said, I'm leaving it up to Jack.
- You told her to ask her mother? - Yeah.
Her mother's never gonna let you have sex with her.
- Yeah.
I'm hoping.
- What? Well, I figured if her mom said no, then I wouldn't have to.
- You don't want to? - Well, I think it's a little too soon, isn't it? Plus it'd be her first time, and I don't wanna be her first.
That's a lot of responsibility.
You know how that goes.
Been there.
I know what you're talking about.
The emotional reaction is completely unpredictable.
Grace always struck me as a little unpredictable to begin with.
- How so? - All that Jesus talk.
So she's a Christian.
I'm a Christian.
Oh, I had no idea.
Yeah.
My dad's a minister at the church.
Well, if he's preaching what you're doing, then I'm joining.
He and my mom don't recommend sex while you're still in high school, but they're realistic about it.
Well, half the kids in high school don't have sex.
- Yeah, I know.
- Well, and you should never feel like you have to have sex, and right now, I feel like I have to have sex.
[Grace whispering.]
Psst! Jack! Psst! Excuse me.
I think someone wants to talk to me.
God help you.
Hey, Grace, who are you hiding from in the hallway where everyone can see us? - Madison.
- [sighs.]
All right.
Well, she can find us any second, so what do you want? And make it quick.
I don't want you to mess up anything.
- Like what? Sex? - How'd you know? I'll try not to mess up your sex life, but I'm just really upset, and I need to talk to someone, and you're the only friend I have besides the one I wanna talk about.
Adrian.
Shh! - What did she do this time? Who did she sleep with? - It doesn't matter.
What matters is that she thinks there might be a problem.
And if there is a problem, you and I need to get together and talk to her together as christians who do not support abortion.
- What? - I don't know how much time we have.
And I can't do this alone.
She's not gonna listen to me.
- Holy shnikies.
- Shh! Just be prepared.
If this is just some scheme to get me back, Grace, it's not gonna work.
I don't want you back.
I just thought that we were friends.
I'm not Adrian's friend.
Ben's her friend and your friend.
Go to Ben.
No way.
Jack, I swear, if you say anything to anyone, I will make sure you never have children.
You and Tom tried that.
Evidently, I'm a man of steel.
Oh, please.
Hi, Madison.
See you later, Jack.
[Sighs.]
- That's not right.
- It's John's first birthday.
It's not really for him.
It's for their family, so they just invited their families.
- We have a gift for him.
- Yeah.
So do I.
We'll give the gifts to Amy, and then she can give them to him.
No.
No.
I'm not doing that.
- Alice.
- Hank.
This is what we're doing the three of us.
We're gonna go to that birthday party as if we never heard it was just for the family.
Alice, I can't go anyway.
My dad's wedding's tomorrow.
I have a family dinner tonight.
Oh, and we're not invited to that, either? It's just me, my dad, and Betty.
It's just the three of us.
And believe me, I'm bowing out early because I'm sure they'd rather have it just the two of them, and they just invited me to be polite.
But both of you are invited to the wedding.
Everyone's invited to the wedding.
Even me? Because Ashley says, no, I'm not invited, and my cousin Grant's not invited.
But, you know, I mean, it's okay.
No, that's not okay.
Listen, you're more than welcome to come.
Please come.
Bring anybody you want.
Bring your cousin.
If you wanna bring a date, you can bring a date.
Bro, hey.
Love you, man.
Thank you.
Thank you.
- Who does he date? - Guess we'll find out.
So, problem solved.
Ben just invited me, my date, and my cousin to the wedding.
Oh, that's great.
But who are you bringing? You're not dating anyone.
Well, you really think I'm just studying while you're out with Grant? Well, we haven't been out.
Yeah.
I heard you're thinking about staying in.
What does that mean? It means it's too soon.
It's really none of your business.
Oh, it is my business.
I'm your friend, so I'm making it my business.
You're 15.
It's too soon.
Well, then it's too soon for you, too.
I'm supposed to be looking out for you.
I'm your fairy godbrother.
You know, this is between Grant and me, not between you and me.
I'm surprised he said anything to you about it.
That's not like him.
And I told him I'd kill him if he said anything.
He didn't say anything.
Well, then, how do you my dad? Don't be mad at your dad.
He's just being a dad.
And I'm just being a friend.
Oh, don't be like that.
So you already had a party? Not the kind of party I wanted to have.
That's not the point.
The point was, we were supposed to do this together as John's parents.
We are doing this together as John's parents.
I just did something with him alone as John's mother.
You know, I could've just had a party alone, too, but I didn't.
I included you and your family.
But my family can't go except for Ashley, and that doesn't count.
So you're free to do whatever you want.
Hey, what's going on? Nothing.
What do you want? I just wanna make sure you're coming to the wedding tomorrow.
Hope that you're bringing John and anyone else you wanna bring.
I'm sorry, but Amy just makes me so crazy.
Yeah, I know.
She used to make me crazy sometimes.
[Sighs.]
I miss that sometimes.
- And sometimes you don't? - Sometimes I don't.
What happened? It's so stupid, but Amy had a birthday party with John all by herself, and that really pisses me off.
I mean, as much as I wish we'd act like adults, we don't.
Yeah, we're gonna run off to Vegas after Leo gets married to Betty tomorrow.
George, are you sure you really wanna marry Anne? You know, you don't have to marry her just because she tricked you into having another baby.
It's our third.
She keeps tricking me, and I keep falling for it and for her.
I love her, mims.
So, Robbie fell right asleep.
Oh, good.
Probably tired from riding in the car.
Well, I guess I've gotta pack my things.
We'll all drive down together to that other baby's birthday, and to your wedding.
[Chuckles.]
I can't wait.
What wedding is she talking about? We haven't decided if we're getting married or not.
Yeah, we have.
We just haven't decided when.
You say next year, I say next day.
Tomorrow.
George, don't you think we have enough going on right now without getting into all this? No.
Let's get into this.
You wanna get married or not? - No, not now.
- Not now, tomorrow? Not tomorrow.
Stop being a scaredy-cat.
You know we're gonna get married again.
Let's get married again.
Stop making such a big deal out of it.
We're already a family, and we're gonna stay a family.
So let's just make it official without making it so important.
Come on.
What do you say? George, you're right.
We are a family, and we'll most likely stay a family, but let's not make any big deal about it.
- Let's just leave things as they are.
- Can't.
You know, if you keep pushing me, I'm just gonna move in the opposite direction.
- It's not a good day to push me.
- Then I'll push you tomorrow.
How's that? Look what I found.
What is that your wedding dress? Surprised I wore white? Your dad was, too.
[Laughs.]
No, I'm just surprised that you have your wedding dress hanging in your closet.
Well, I recently had occasion to wear it again.
What do you mean? - Mimsy, baby, I got here as quick as I could.
- Oh.
Oh.
The hospital said they sent you home.
What what happened? Uh [clears throat.]
Meet Mr.
and Mrs.
Levy.
Oh, God.
Now I think I'm having a stroke.
Is he really asleep, or were you just holding him captive? You don't technically get him until it's bedtime.
It's not bedtime.
It's nap time.
Amy, you agreed to have the party this afternoon at the park.
Can we just go and get this over with, please? "Get this over with"? It's John's first birthday.
- It's supposed to be fun, not like his first party.
- What first party? Amy and John had a party all by themselves last night.
Oh, great.
I'm glad that we did.
It's raining, so there's no party at the park.
Then we'd move it to my apartment.
Why are you being so crazy? You're making me crazy.
This is what I was trying to avoid all the drama that goes on in this house every time I come over to see John.
[John crying.]
I'll get him.
- What is wrong with her? - I don't know.
Well, she is a 16-year-old mother who had to agree to give up her son weekends to his dad.
I know, Ashley.
I know it's not easy on her.
I'm trying to make it as easy as possible, though.
Then she went and had a party all by herself.
What are you, a girl now? Yeah, I guess I am.
I don't know why that bothers me so much.
He doesn't know they had a party without me, but that is technically his first birthday party.
And there I go again.
Jeez.
Hey, John.
Say hi to daddy.
Come on, Amy.
Come to the party.
I want you at the party.
You have to be at the party.
You're the mom.
He loves you.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry that I had a party without you.
I cannot control myself.
I just wanna, like, stomp my feet and scream.
I know what we worked out was fair, but it seems so unfair still.
And now my parents aren't going to be there, and your parents are, and it's just not how I pictured John's first birthday.
All right.
Well, let's think about this.
Your parents can't come, so I'll ask my parents if they mind backing out and seeing him tomorrow.
And it'll just be you and me.
Pack your bag, come over and spend the night.
I'll sleep on the couch.
It's just you, me, and John at his first birthday party.
[babbles.]
John will have his mommy and daddy.
Both of us.
Okay? What about that? What do you say? Okay.
So I'm not going? - Do you wanna go? - Well, of course I wanna go.
You know, I think this is really a good idea for just you and Ricky to be at the party.
Just you, Ricky, and John.
It's perfect.
So do it, Amy.
Go.
Go and have a good time.
You sure, Ashley? Mom and dad aren't here, so they probably won't make it home tonight, and you'll be alone in the house.
You going to be okay here by yourself? Could Griffin come over and stay or something? Yeah, or something.
You go.
[Dialing phone number.]
Hi, Grant.
- What's taking so long? - Your mother's wedding dress.
Oh.
Then she should take as long as she likes, because when my mother sees a picture of my bride in that dress, she's gonna be thrilled.
- Have you seen the dress? - Well, I didn't wanna see it before the wedding.
- That's bad luck.
- Yeah.
Well, all I can say is my mother really, really loves you.
Oh.
Cindy.
Nice to meet you.
Uh, this isn't Cindy.
This is Adrian my daughter.
Adrian, this is Fast Eddie.
I'm sorry.
I meant, this is judge Cooper.
I'm a little nervous.
They call me "Fast Eddie" because I don't waste any time in court.
Oh, well, nice to meet you.
It's nice to meet you, too, Adrian.
This is a special day for your parents and, I understand, a dream come true for you.
Yeah.
Something wrong, Adrian? You feeling all right? You look a little pale.
Okay, one, my fault for not opening the package sooner, and wearing my sweats down here, thinking I was gonna be putting on this beautiful wedding dress.
And two, certainly your mother did not get married in this dress.
And three, she hates me, because I was sitting right next to you when you told her I was a size two, not a 32.
I, uh, don't know what to say.
You look Funny.
[Laughing.]
I promise to never let this or anything else my mother does come between the two of us.
And I love you for wearing that.
I love you, Cindy.
And I love you, too, Adrian.
I only wish that I had married your mother when I should have.
And I'm so glad she had you.
I am, too.
I am, too.
Okay, just do it.
We'll need a witness here.
Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to join these two people in holy matrimony.
Oh, my God, we're soaked.
Here's the key.
Let yourself in.
I'll go get the suitcase.
Hi.
- Hi, Ben.
- Hi.
I guess the birthday party got rained out.
Hi, John.
Say hi to Ben.
- Why don't I take him up and get him changed? - No, I can do it.
Or, yeah, I can go get your suitcase or - You spending the night? - Hey, look who's here.
The birthday boy.
Hi, Amy.
You know Bunny? This is our boss.
We've never been introduced, but I've heard a lot of nice things about you.
Same here.
I took all the party things upstairs, and Ben gave me some presents from some of your friends for the little guy.
Yeah, I did.
Of course, I won't be coming to the party.
No, 'cause you got a big wedding to go to tomorrow, and your dad needs you, so why don't you take off? I can close up here.
I didn't know it was gonna be a sleepover kind of birthday party.
No wonder no one else was invited.
I don't believe that.
Hey, hey.
You don't believe what? He was just complaining this morning that she makes him crazy.
Now he's sleeping with her.
She's sleeping with him.
You don't know that anyone's sleeping with anyone.
He just said, "I'll go get your suitcase.
" None of your business, Ben.
Let it go.
It is my business.
This is the family apartment.
And it's it's completely wrong.
It's okay, Ben.
It's gonna be fine.
Go home, take care of your dad, and do not, under any circumstances, ruin his wedding day.
- You hear me? - That should've been my baby.
I would've been a good father.
I would've been a good husband and a good father.
Yes, you would, Ben, but it's not your time.
It's not your time.
I'll see you tomorrow.
[Sighs.]
I'm sorry, Bunny.
I'm not angry at you.
I'm angry with myself.
I've completely ruined my life.
I hope not.
[Bell jingling.]
I'm not gonna do it tonight.
We can't do it tonight.
I'm not emotionally prepared.
And I wanna be wearing my new dress, and I wanna have my makeup done.
I don't know.
Just, I don't wanna do it tonight.
All right.
I can wait one more night.
Right.
Are you nervous? No.
I'm not nervous.
I'm ready.
- You're sure? - Yeah, I'm sure.
Did you get the condoms? Yes.
Can I see them? Uh, yeah.
I've never seen one before.
Well, we can look at one together if you want, or I can just take care of that myself tomorrow night, and you really don't need to see it.
Yeah, that'd be good.
I don't really wanna see it.
All right.
So what if it breaks? That would be bad.
You're not on the pill, are you? No.
But as long as it doesn't break, we're okay, right? Right, but these things can break.
They usually don't.
It's never happened to me before, but they can, like with Adrian and Ben.
- What? - What? "With Adrian and Ben"? - What are you talking about? - You said, "Adrian and Ben.
" - Huh? - Yeah.
Why would you say that? Why would you know that? I mean, how would you know that? This isn't that "who, what, when, where, and why" that they talk about in journalism, is it? - Hey, this isn't an interview.
- No, it's off the record.
Now answer the question.
All right, Madison.
This is what I was talking to Grace about today About Adrian and Ben.
- Oh, my God.
- You cannot say a word Not a word to anyone.
- I'm serious.
- She's pregnant.
She doesn't know.
It's just that when something like that happens, it's pretty scary.
But she told Grace because she thinks she's pregnant, and she wants an abortion.
- That's why Grace told you.
- Damn, you're good.
Well, I'm not gonna tell anybody.
I promise.
Please don't.
I'm sure the word will get out soon enough.
But Ben doesn't know.
No one knows other than Grace and you and me.
That's it.
[sighs.]
Oh, God.
[Crying.]
[Ringing.]
Hi, Grace.
Hi, Adrian.
How are you? How was the wedding? - Beautiful.
- Really? - That's nice.
- Yeah.
Nice.
They went away for the weekend.
Ruben surprised her and got the bridal suite at some Beverly Hills hotel.
- Wow.
- Yep.
Wow.
- I have to go.
- Wait.
Are you there by yourself? Yeah, I'm here by myself.
Did you get the early pregnancy test? Yeah.
I bought one on the way home.
Do you want me to come over? No, Grace, I don't want you to come over here.
Adrian, I don't want you to be alone when you take the test.
I'll come over.
I'm your friend.
You know what, Grace? I don't know if I want you to know.
- Maybe you shouldn't know.
- Why is that? You know why, Grace.
And I saw you talking to Jack.
If I find out I'm pregnant, then it's my choice as to what I do.
It's not your choice, and it's not Jack's choice.
If you two ever get pregnant, then it'll be your choice.
Adrian, I just want you to do the right thing.
I will, Grace.
I will do the right thing for me.
And the thing is, Grace, I didn't get into this all by myself, so I think the person that I should have with me when I take this test is Ben.
But don't say anything to him.
- Let me be the one to tell him.
- I understand.
If you change your mind, if you want me there, - just call me.
- All right.
I will, if I change my mind.
I'm really sorry you're going through all this, Adrian.
Thanks, Grace.
[Beeps.]
[Beeps.]
[Sighs.]
[Recorded message.]
It's me.
It's Amy.
Leave a message for me and John.
[john laughing.]
[Beeps.]
Hi, Amy.
I'm really happy I got your voice mail.
I don't wanna bother you.
I know that you and Ricky are together tonight with John.
But I just wanted to say that no matter what happens between us in life, Amy, I'll always love you.
And I just wanted you to know that.
And if you ever need me, you can call me, and I'll be there.
Good night, Amy.
And happy birthday, John.
- That was a beautiful wedding.
- Wasn't it? Ben, your dad and Betty they looked so happy and so in love.
Here's to love and happiness.
Thank you for last night.
Thank you for last year.
You should really thank your mother for babysitting today, Robbie and John.
She's used to a lot of kids.
- I love you, Hank.
- I love you, Alice.
I wanna have a wedding like this.
- Anytime soon? - Tenth grade's a little early.
A little.
Yeah.
I just seems more romantic to wait.
You don't think Leo and Betty waited, do you? I don't know.
I doubt it.
But I get your point.
I guess your mother hates me now.
Not just my mother, my father, my stepfather, and my grandmother.
Well, it's better than doing it too soon.
I'll win them over.
You'll see.
- I'm sure you will.
- Yeah.
So, is Kathleen coming, George? - I've always wanted to meet her.
- She was inside.
I'll introduce you.
You two have a lot in common, what with being newlyweds and all.
Here you go, sweetheart.
Oh, thank you, lover.
[chuckles.]
Oh, jeez.
Hey, maybe you two would like to be witnesses at our wedding.
What wedding? Oh, there's Kathleen.
- Hi.
- Where's your husband? He's delivering a baby.
Emergency.
I did that one-handed.
Hi, I'm Anne's mother.
Sit down.
I have so many questions to ask.
Yeah, join us.
This should be fun.
Hi, Jack.
Hey, Adrian.
How you doing? She told you, didn't she? To be honest with you, yes.
- And you told Madison? - No.
All right.
Well, where is Madison? Ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to present Mr.
and Mrs.
Leo Boykewich.
[Applause.]
The sausage king and his queen.
[Applause continues.]
Thank you for joining Betty and Ben and me today to celebrate our new lives together.
I am truly a blessed man to have Betty as my wife Ben as my son, and all of you as our friends.
All of you.
[Crowd.]
And to you.
Salud.
- [Man.]
Cheers! - [man #2.]
You look beautiful, Betty.
- Bunny.
- Oh, see? My favorite song "Last chance for love.
" - Do you get it? - I get it, honey.
I totally get it.
So, he's a gynecologist.
He is.
So how long after a stroke - is it safe to have sex? - Well, I'm not a doctor.
But you've been married to two of them.
Yeah, well, you know, I don't know about the sex, but alcohol is definitely a no-no.
Who's that with Mimsy? Well, if you'd been home last night, you'd know.
- That's your new gramps.
- Dad? That's right.
And if you were home last night, she wouldn't have been home last night alone with her boyfriend.
I swear we weren't alone.
Griffin was there, too.
We'll never know if that's true or not, because you've been known to lie.
- Ask Griffin.
- Where is Griffin? Hey, Michael, you're showing off.
Hey, just because I dance better than you do doesn't mean I'm showing off.
You're showing off.
Oh, now look who's gone and got all self-conscious.
- Oh, oh, yeah? - Oh, yeah? Come on.
Let's dance.
Oh, I can't.
I don't do disco.
I still wanna talk to you right after I talk to him.
You two better not have done anything.
I could say the same to you, sister.
* come on, baby, dance that dance * - How'd it go? That's for me to know and you to find out, for once.
- All right.
* come on, baby * * let's dance tonight * - What'd you find out? - Not much.
Ashley asked me about birth control pills yesterday? - What? - Yeah.
I'll talk to her, you talk to Amy.
I talked to Amy.
We don't have to worry about Amy and Ricky.
We have to worry about Amy and Ben.
- I thought - Yeah, I did, too.
- What about Jimmy? - They're friends.
Friends, just like us.
[Big band, slow tempo.]
George, we are friends, and that's a good place to be after all we've been through.
I'm happy that we're friends.
But I don't wanna get married just because we had a baby.
- Three babies.
- And two of them are almost grown.
One of them has a baby of their own.
We wouldn't tell Amy to marry Ricky just because they had a baby.
- I'm Ricky? - George, we've changed a lot over the years, but I'm not sure that, other than the children, we have that much in common.
I mean, I love a lot of things about you.
I respect you.
I think you're funny.
Thank you, finally.
Let's just take our time, okay? There's no hurry.
I want us to get to know each other again.
Hi, Ben.
Oh.
Hey, Adrian.
It's a beautiful wedding.
- Yeah, it is.
I'm really happy you could make it.
- Me, too.
Oh, how was the wedding yesterday your mom and dad's? Oh, great.
All right.
Enough small talk.
Look, no time is a good time for this, and, well, I don't think I can wait any longer.
I wonder what's going on with them.
[No audible dialogue.]
Nothing.
Absolutely nothing.
You could be right about that, because Ben called me last night.
He left a message for me.
He told me that he loves me.
- Really? - Really? And do you love him? I don't know.
I guess time will tell.
Where's your boyfriend? He's over there, staring at us.
I told him I just wanted to say hello to you.
What's up with you two? - Not much.
- Keep it that way.
- Because? - Because.
That's not a good enough reason.
That's all I've got right now.
No.
No, no, no.
[Sighs.]
- You had a few? - It's just one.
Me, too.
I'm sorry.
You broke up with Tammy? I didn't break up with Tammy.
She's just late.
There she is.
I've missed you, Tom! But not her! [Laughs.]
[Ends.]
[no audible dialogue.]
[Applause.]
[Piano.]
Did Adrian tell Ben yet? I think she's telling him right now.
I'm sorry I even told you.
I think this time we should just stay out of it.
All right.
