Kinkirk's House - Front Yard
Kevin: Hi, I'm Kevin Kinkirk, the new owner. What's going on?
Milt: Oh, so nice to meet you finally... I'm Milt Madison. Call me Milt.
Kevin: Hi, Milt.
Milt: This used to be my house. My wife Edie and I lived here for twenty-five years... raised our daughter here. You hafta do more than just call the gardener. You, you hafta tell 'em what to do. I mean, these, these plants need some work.
Kevin: Oh... okay, I'll let them know. Thanks.
Milt: How does your wife like the house?
Kevin: I haven't shown it to her yet. It was supposed to be a surprise. I was going to bring her over after the baby shower, but she was born that day so I haven't gotten over here yet.
Milt: So she hasn't even seen it?
Kevin: Nope, but I'm sure she's going to love it. I'm hoping to bring her over tomorrow and I'm hoping that once she does see it, we can move right in.
Milt: What did you have, a boy or a girl?
Kevin: A little girl, Savannah.
Milt: Ah, nice name, nice name... the girls are special. My wife and I have a daughter, just the one daughter, Sally. You know, we gave up on Sally getting married. Ah, she's forty, a professional type, more interested in the career than a family, so we bought a place in Florida, sold this one, and wouldn't you know it, Sally and her boyfriend get pregnant and they're gonna have a baby. They got married last weekend. We're gonna be grandparents.
Kevin: Congratulations...
Milt: Oh, yeah, we're very happy about that it. Sure wish we hadn't sold the house, I mean Sally lives here in Glenoak.
Kevin: So you're here visiting?
Milt: Nah not exactly, the place we bought in Florida got demolished by one of the hurricanes, so we don't exactly have a place to live now. We rented something nearby, so we could be around when the baby comes. But, sure wish we hadn't sold this house.
Camden's House - Kitchen
Simon: Hi...
Annie: Oh, what are you doing home?
Simon: Hey...
Annie: Ohh...
Simon: I just felt like a home-cooked meal and some family time.
Annie: Oh...
Eric: I, I noticed you brought your laundry.
Simon: I figured I might as well.
Annie: Oh, just throw it in the laundry room; I'll be happy to do it for you.
Simon: Thanks, Mom.
Eric: The goal is to get them all out of the house and on their own.
Annie: I know.
Annie: What would you like for dinner?
Simon: Ah, anything, of course steak is always nice.
Annie: I'll pick some steaks.
Simon: I'll gonna go put my stuff upstairs.
Annie: Where upstairs?
Simon: Didn't Lucy and Kevin move out?
Annie: Oh... no, she hasn't even seen the new house yet.
Simon: Weren't they supposed to move out this weekend, though.
Eric: Well, you know, maybe, maybe they could. Now that you're home, maybe Kevin and Martin and you and I, maybe we could move them this weekend.
Annie: Yeah, maybe, maybe you could.
Simon: I, I guess we could... maybe Matt can help.
Eric: Matt... well is he's coming home again?
Simon: Yeah, he's done with this thing, the, the seminar. I mean, he said he was coming back... he better.
Annie: Better...?
Simon: Yeah well, I mean, that's kinda the reason why I'm here actually, I miss him.
Eric: You miss him?
Simon: Yeah, I miss Matt. I'm gonna put my stuff in the living room.
Eric: Okay, something's up.
Annie: Yeah, our son misses our other son. They're brothers. They want to be with each other. Isn't that great?
Eric: No, it's not great, it's... curious.
Annie: Ahhh...
Camden's House - Living Room
Simon on Phone: Hey, it's me. What are you doin'? I'm thinking of you, too, what else are you doing? Oh, come on, it's only going to be for forty-eight hours, before I'm back. How's my apartment? All right, but don't get too comfortable, you know we can't live together... no, no because... because it would be wrong... because my dad didn't help me get that apartment so we can live together. All right, fine... well look, Sunday you have to get back to your dorm... all right, Monday morning then... hey, I have to go. I'll call you back.
Simon: Hey, when did you get in?
Matt: Oh, just a few minutes ago. Everyone in bed?
Simon: Yeah, everyone's in bed.
Matt: Good... was that ah, Georgia?
Simon: No, no it wasn't Georgia. I have nothing to do with her anymore. When I see her walking on campus, I keep walking. It's over.
Matt: So ah, who was on the phone?
Simon: That was my new girlfriend, Anna.
Matt: Are you nuts?
Simon: What?
Matt: You just broke up with Georgia because she lied to you about being pregnant, and now you're in another relationship like that?
Simon: Like what?
Matt: Like having that kinda of relationship again?
Simon: I happen to be in love.
Matt: (laughs)
Matt: No, you're not.
Simon: Yes, I am.
Matt: No, you're not.
Simon: I am, Matt, that's why I came down to see you. Because, I wanna make sure that nothing happens to me again, like when I was with Georgia.
Matt: Then don't have sex.
Simon: I was thought we... I could just be safer.
Matt: How could you be safer?
Simon: I thought you could write a prescription for my girlfriend for some birth control pills. Her dad is the doctor at the school clinic, okay. She can't go there, she's afraid he'll find out, so, I told her I'd ask you.
Matt: I can't write prescriptions.
Simon: Get her some samples from the hospital or something.
Matt: No, I can't and even if I could, the answer would still be no, absolutely not, and you shouldn't be doing this.
Simon: What do you want me to do, Matt? You want me to get married just so I can have sex like you did?
Matt: I didn't get married just so I could have sex.
Simon: Yes, you did.
Matt: No, I didn't. I was in love.
Simon: You fell in love on the first date... or did you stay out all night on the first date and then you couldn't get out of it, so you being the minister's son and her being the rabbi's daughter, other than to say you were in love and getting married.
Matt: Don't forget you're my little brother.
Simon: I'm not so little anymore, Matt.
Matt: Oh yeah, you've, you've gotten a lot taller, but not any smarter.
Simon: Smart enough not to get married just to have sex.
Matt: You think having sex makes you a man, huh?
Simon: Don't push me, Matt, I'll push you back.
Kevin: All right, knock it off.
Matt/Simon: (screams)
Savannah: (cries)
Kevin: Great... you woke up Savannah.
Matt: You can't have a gun in this house.
Simon: What's with the weapon, man?
Kevin: I thought someone was breaking in. Sorry...
Matt: Look, I don't agree with what you're doing.
Simon: And I don't agree with what you did... with what Mary did or what Lucy did. I don't want to get married until I'm like thirty, forty even.
Matt: I'm happily married and Lucy's happily married.
Simon: You talked to Mary lately?
Matt: (sighs)
Matt: (nods)
Camden's House - Upstairs Hallway
Eric: Ooooh...
Kevin: Sorry, I thought someone was breaking in, but it's just Matt and Simon downstairs killing each other with their bare hands.
Eric: Oh yeah, what's going on?
Kevin: I don't know, but someone could have told me that people were sleeping in the living room.
Eric: Ah, right, sorry. Well, when you move, you'll know who everyone is in your house, and where they're all sleeping. So anyway, ah, do you know what Matt and Simon were arguing about?
Kevin: Uh, I think it was women.
Eric: Yeah...? Come on, think.
Kevin: I'm too tired to think. Goodnight...
Eric: Hey, ah, in the future, could you possibly leave your gun lying in the trunk of your car or somewhere other than in our house?
Kevin: What if someone were really breaking in?
Eric: Then we'll call the police.
Kevin: And I'm the police, and I'd show up, or some other cop would show up with a gun.
Eric: You're not gonna have a gun in your house when you have your own house with your own precious, little daughter in it, are you?
Kevin: Probably... I'll keep the gun and the bullets in two separate places, each with a combination lock, just like I do now.
Eric: Ah, no, you're not. Children can get into anything.
Kevin: Not if anything is safely locked away and hidden... which is what I will do when I move... I'll safely lock my gun away and the bullets away in a safe and secret place.
Eric: Okay, well, until then, and I hope then is soon, I'd like it if you'd leave your gun somewhere other than in my house.
Kevin: All right, if that's what you want.
Eric: Where are you going to put it?
Kevin: I'll figure it our tomorrow.
Eric: I don't want the gun in the house tonight, no offense, but it makes me very nervous. You, you could have shot Matt or Simon.
Kevin: If you knew what they were talking about, you probably would want me to... arrest one of them.
Eric: Ah... so you do know what they were talking about. Which one?
Eric: You said I'd probably want you to arrest one of them. Which one... Matt or Simon?
Kevin: I shouldn't have said that.
Eric: Well...
Kevin: For all I know, it could be both of them.
Camden's House - Living Room
Eric: Hey, you guys asleep? I was gonna... I was gonna get a snack. Either of you feel like a snack? I think there's pie in the refrigerator.
Happy: (yawns)
Eric: Your mother was saving it for tomorrow, but... okay, goodnight.
Camden's House - Kitchen
Eric: Martin?
Eric: Aaayahh!... don't do that. I have a bad heart.
Ruthie: Sorry...
Eric: Hey, Kevin... you see, you see how easy it would be to shoot someone?
Kevin: Did I shoot anyone?
Eric: Do you still have your gun?
Kevin: I'm not an idiot. I don't think every noise in the house is a burglar. I locked my gun away.
Eric: Away where?
Kevin: In a lock box in the closet.
Eric: I thought I made it clear that I don't want a gun in the house.
Kevin: Fine, I'll go get the gun and get it out of your house, right now, in the middle of the night.
Eric: What are you doing up so late?
Ruthie: I was on the phone with Vincent. It's okay, I don't have school tomorrow. It was kind like a phone date.
Eric: How long where you on the phone?
Ruthie: Until a few minutes ago.
Eric: No, I meant what time did the phone call start?
Ruthie: About eight o'clock.
Eric: You've been talking on the phone for... four hours? What could you possibly be talking about for four hours?
Ruthie: Stuff...
Eric: What kind of stuff?
Ruthie: School stuff... mostly.
Eric: I don't see any reason for you to be on the phone for four hours.
Ruthie: I know, but you're old, and you and mom probably said everything to each other you're ever going to say. We just met. We have things to talk about.
Eric: We have one phone line. We don't have call waiting.
Ruthie: I know, but Simon has a cell phone now and Matt has a cell phone. And Martin has a cell phone and Sam and David don't call anyone. And you and mom are home talking to each other, repeating the same conversations you've probably had over and over again since you've met.
Eric: What makes you think that?
Ruthie: Vincent and I were talking about what it would be like to be married, and we were wondering how long it takes before you've said everything you want to say to each other and then you just start repeating stuff.
Eric: Well believe it or not, when you have children there's always something new to talk about, but no one needs to be on the phone for four hours at one time..
Camden's House - Garage
Kevin/Martin: (screams)
Martin: I thought someone was breaking in. Sorry...
Kevin: I was just putting my gun away.
Martin: In the middle of the night?
Kevin: Dad doesn't want a gun in the house.
Martin: I don't think it's a good idea to have a gun either but it's also not good to be wandering around in the middle of the night.
Kevin: Well, I'm a cop, I have a gun. I know how and when to use it, but I was forced to wander around with it in the middle of the night. I'm done now, I'll go back inside. Goodnight...
Eric: (screams)
Eric: What is all the screaming about?
Kevin: I scared Martin.
Martin: And I scared Kevin.
Kevin: That's what you'd do if someone were breaking in, you'd grab a frying pan? You know, maybe Lucy and I shouldn't move.
Eric: Maybe you should, then no one would be scaring anyone.
Kevin: Right, but if you did get scared in the middle of the night, you could call me at my home and I would rush over with my gun and protect you, because I plan on having my gun in my house when I move into my house.
Eric: If you're scared out here, maybe we should move you back in the house with everyone else.
Martin: I wasn't scared. I have a bat, I'll be fine.
Eric: All right, well, I'll lock the garage door on my way out. Goodnight...
Martin: Goodnight...
Camden's House - Kitchen
Matt: (sighs)
Matt: You scared me.
Eric: It's been a very scary night.
Matt: Yeah, it has. Simon and I were having an argument, and suddenly Kevin was holding a gun on us.
Eric: Yeah, well, I, I told him to take it out of the house and I guess he was locking it in his car when Martin heard him and thought someone was breaking in. Fortunately, no one was hurt. It's really time for Kevin and Lucy to move, although I hope when they do move, that he doesn't keep a gun in the house.
Matt: Yeah, probably not a good idea. I've seen gunshot wounds... not a pretty sight.
Eric: So... you and Simon were arguing? You want to tell me what that was all about? Look, I know something's goin' on.
Matt: Yeah, something is going on, and maybe I should tell you, but...
Eric: But...
Camden's House - Eric and Annie's Room
Annie: Where have you been?
Eric: I just went downstairs to check on things.
Annie: Things like Matt and Simon?
Eric: Yeah...
Annie: You were gone a long time.
Eric: I ran into Ruthie in the kitchen. She was on the phone for four hours talking with Vincent tonight... four hours.
Annie: Oh, it must be nice to have so much to talk about. I remember those days.
Eric: We never stayed on the phone for four hours talking to each other.
Annie: Oh, yes, we did. So Matt and Simon?
Eric: Matt didn't want to say, other than that he doesn't like Simon very much right now. He thinks he's making some bad decisions.
Annie: Like...?
Eric: He didn't say.
Annie: He didn't go back with Georgia, did he?
Eric: No, he didn't.
Annie: He never said why they broke up.
Eric: No, he didn't. Goodnight...
Annie: Did you ask Matt why Simon and Georgia broke up?
Eric: No, I didn't.
Annie: I don't know, lately he just seems he's going from one woman to the next.
Eric: Yeah...
Annie: Aren't you even curious as to why Simon and Georgia broke up?
Eric: Sure, I am curious. Just because I'm curious doesn't mean I can get an answer out of Matt or Simon. Besides, I... it never seemed to me really like those two would last, so it doesn't really matter why, does it? Goodnight...
Annie: Maybe he's talking to Cecilia again.
Eric: No, he'd probably tell us if he was talking to Cecilia again. Goodnight...
Annie: Why do you keep saying goodnight?
Eric: Because I'm tired and I want to go to sleep. I can't stay up all night talking.
Annie: Sometimes I miss those days.
Eric: I honestly don't remember those days, but if you say we used to stay on the phone talking for hours, I believe you. Goodnight... Where are you going?
Annie: I'm going to try to get some information so I can sleep.
Eric: I told you something was up.
Annie: Yes, you did, dear, but you didn't tell me what it is, and until I know what it is, I can't sleep. Goodnight...
Camden's House - Kevin and Lucy's Room
Lucy: I thought you were staying with Savannah.
Kevin: I was, but she's sound asleep. I wanted to talk to you.
Lucy: Great, so you're going to tell me what Matt and Simon are arguing about?
Kevin: No... I'm going to tell you what we're going to be arguing about. You know I want to move.
Lucy: Well, I wanna move, too, and I can't wait to see the house tomorrow. And if we don't have to do any painting or replace any carpet or anything, we can move any day now, right?
Kevin: We should be able to, but there's a problem.
Lucy: Something wrong with the house.
Kevin: No, nothing's wrong with the house, but...
Lucy: But what? It's the middle of the night already, just spit it out.
Kevin: I sold it back to the people we bought it from.
Lucy: What!
Kevin: I sold it back to the people we bought it from.
Lucy: I, I, I didn't want you to repeat what you said, I wanted you to explain what you said.
Kevin: They bought a place in Florida, they lost it in the hurricanes, their daughter unexpectedly got married because she's pregnant, they wanted their house back.
Lucy: So you sold it back to them without even asking me.
Kevin: I didn't ask you when I bought it, so... I think I hear Savannah.
Lucy: No, you didn't. When did all this happen?
Kevin: Yesterday afternoon... I haven't told your mom and dad if that makes you feel any better.
Lucy: (sighs)
Lucy: It does. It does make me feel better. You know what, I don't care. I didn't want to move yet anyway and I'm sure the house is great, but I'd love it if we bought the next one together.
Kevin: So you're not angry with me?
Lucy: No, I'm not. I think it's great.
Kevin: Your parents aren't going to think it's great. Your dad can't wait to get us out of here.
Lucy: He just wanted your gun out of here; he doesn't want to get us out of here.
Kevin: I'm a cop. I have a gun.
Lucy: Oh, guns kill people.
Kevin: People kill people.
Lucy: People with guns kill people.
Kevin: I'm well aware... that's why I'm not just armed with a cell phone and a tazer.
Lucy: We can have this argument when we have our own house, until then...
Kevin: My gun will be locked in the car, so that if my car gets stolen, the car thieves will then be armed.
Lucy: I'm going to go downstairs. Want anything?
Kevin: I'll get you whatever you want. What do you want?
Lucy: I want to go down to the kitchen. I'll be fine. I'll be fine and my parents will be fine when we tell then we're not moving.
Kevin: Maybe we could wait until they get the other bad news, the Mary news, then we can tell then and then it won't seem so bad.
Lucy: Yeah, well, the only thing wrong with that plan is we don't know when they're going to get the other bad news, and I'm still praying that bad news goes away.
Camden's House - Attic Room
Annie: His parents don't mind if you stay on the phone all night?
Ruthie: No, you met them. They don't know if they're supposed to care or not.
Annie: Sometimes it worries me for you to have a boyfriend whose parents are just discovering parenthood.
Ruthie: Don't worry, Vincent's a cool guy, he's not going to do anything stupid.
Annie: Which means?
Ruthie: He's not going to try to have a physical relationship with me or anything like that.
Annie: I should hope not.
Ruthie: Lots of kids our age are having physical relationships.
Annie: You're not lots of kids, you're my daughter.
Ruthie: I know, I'm not going to do anything... not until I'm older.
Annie: Much, much older and married.
Ruthie: I have a plan.
Annie: Well, stick to the plan. Wait a minute... what is the plan, exactly?
Door: (knock)
Lucy: Can I come in?
Ruthie: Sure...
Annie: Oh, is the baby keeping you up?
Lucy: The baby and everyone else in the house... what's going on?
Annie: Ah, we were just talking.
Lucy: About?
Annie: Lots of things.
Ruthie: We're just wondering what's going on with Simon and why he's really home... again.
Lucy: I tried getting it out of Kevin.
Annie: I tried to having your dad get it out of Matt.
Ruthie: Sorry, I was on the phone all night. I don't know anything.
Lucy: Talking with Vincent?
Ruthie: Yes...
Lucy: I hope you two aren't getting too close too fast.
Ruthie: We're not, we're just getting to know each other.
Annie: It's a lifelong process getting to know each other.
Lucy: Yeah, it is. I'm just finding out Kevin is a gun freak.
Annie: You had to have suspected, he's a cop.
Ruthie: He probably just didn't tell you 'cause you're a minister.
Lucy: Sometimes I miss being up here.
Ruthie: Miss being single and sharing a room with me?
Lucy: Sometimes, yeah, but I'm happy with who I am. I'm happy being a mother and a wife.
Ruthie: Tell me the truth; if you had to do it over again, would you have gotten married before you were out of college, had you thought it would be okay to be with Kevin before you're married?
Lucy: Well, hmmm... you know it doesn't really matter, because I don't think it's okay to be with a guy before marriage.
Ruthie: That doesn't exactly answer my question.
Annie: Luce?
Lucy: Well, Mom, why did you and dad get married so young?
Annie: Because I was in love with your father.
Lucy: And you and dad wanted to...?
Annie: Get married. You know there are some things that parents just don't... you know... wanna share with their children. It's getting late, we should all get some sleep. Goodnight...
Ruthie: I'm gonna miss you and Kevin when you move, but it's time.
Lucy: Uh, yeah, it's time.
Ruthie: You must be so excited about your new house; when you see it you're gonna want to move right in.
Lucy: What... are you trying to get rid of me?
Ruthie: No, of course not, I just know how happy you're going to be about your new house. This might be our last hanging out time, if you move right away.
Lucy: We might hang out again before we move.
Ruthie: I just wish Mary was here hanging out with us.
Lucy: Yeah, I do, too. Why did you say that?
Ruthie: Oh, I don't know. I was talking to her about the same stuff I'm talking to you and mom about... and I asked her if wanting to have sex made her get married so young.
Lucy: And...?
Ruthie: And she says that was part of it, yeah.
Lucy: And...?
Ruthie: And I asked her if she had any regrets and...
Lucy: And what?
Ruthie: And you talked to Mary lately?
Camden's House - Garage
Door: (knocks)
Simon: Who locked the door?
Martin: Ah, your dad did.
Simon: Oh... well, do you think I could use your shower, all the showers are taken, and I wanna get out of here for awhile.
Martin: Sure, I was just going over to get some breakfast.
Simon: Okay...
Martin: So, how's school?
Simon: School's fine, why?
Martin: I was just wondering.
Simon: Does everyone know I'm having sex? I mean does the whole family talk about it? Do they know I'm in a new relationship and I'm with her, too? Huh? I mean am I just the subject of all the family gossip, now?
Martin: Actually, I didn't know any of that. But, now that I do, maybe I could get some relationship advice from you.
Simon: You didn't know?
Martin: No...
Simon: Any of that?
Martin: Well, I kind of suspected, but ah, no.
Simon: Oh, okay, ah, what do you wanna know?
Martin: I really haven't been dating that much because it seems to me that everyone just expects everyone to have sex, and I don't know, I thought I'd wait until I got married.
Simon: Yeah, everyone thinks that.
Martin: It just seems like the honorable thing to do, and being raised by a Marine, honor is a big thing in my life.
Simon: I was raised by a minister.
Martin: Yeah, right, I forgot. Must be tough on you, too, I mean trying to justifying what you're doing.
Simon: No, it's not. I don't have to justify anything.
Martin: So you don't feel guilty or like a bad person or...?
Simon: No...
Martin: Even though you know you're not gonna marry any of these woman you're involved with?
Simon: No, I don't feel guilty, it's, it's just sex.
Martin: "Just"? That, that seems so...
Simon: Healthy...?
Martin: No... it seems... kind of... cold.
Simon: Look, it's not like I don't care or I'm not involved, I'm just being realistic. Okay, it's not likely that I'm gonna get married any time soon.
Martin: And these women you're with, they understand this, they understand it's just a physical thing and it's not going to be anything else?
Simon: Yeah...
Martin: And even with the way you been raised, you can still live with yourself?
Simon: Yes, I can live with myself.
Martin: So, let's say in a few years when Ruthie's at college and she meets some guy like you and she wants to have a relationship with that guy...
Simon: Hold on... no, no, no, this is about me, this is not about my sister.
Martin: Yeah, but every girl is someone's sister or daughter, right?
Camden's House - Kitchen
Matt: See ya'.
Eric: Hold it, you've got a minute?
Matt: No, I gotta get to work.
Eric: Oh, just wait a second. Last night when you said that you should tell me what's going on, you didn't tell me that's going on. What's going on? What's, what's going on with Simon?
Matt: Ask Simon.
Eric: About...?
Matt: His new girlfriend. Really... I gotta go.
Annie: Problem with Simon's new girlfriend?
Eric: Apparently.
Annie: Well...? Is he... are they...?
Eric: Oh, I hope not. I hope he's not... they're not...
Annie: What is wrong with Simon? He's just jumping from one girlfriend to the other.
Eric: Well, we don't know that.
Annie: Why would Matt know that? I mean, why would Simon even bother to... you know... telling Matt about his new girlfriend?
Eric: Because Matt's almost a doctor.
Annie: You don't think he's in some kind of trouble do you... some kind of medical trouble? You don't think Simon's sick?
Eric: Matt's almost an OB/GYN.
Camden's House - Kevin and Lucy's Room
Ruthie: What's going on?
Lucy: Tell her.
Kevin: I sold the house.
Ruthie: What?
Lucy: He sold the house.
Ruthie: What!?
Lucy/Kevin: I sold the house.
Ruthie: No!
Lucy: No? What does that mean?
Ruthie: Well... what does that mean? You sold the house.
Kevin: It's a long story. The owners offered to buy it back.
Ruthie: That doesn't mean anything. You bought it. It's yours.
Kevin: Not anymore it isn't.
Lucy: Why do you care?
Ruthie: I care because... I was just so... happy for you.
Lucy: Really?
Ruthie: Yeah, but I can be happy for you again because you must have another house in mind, since you sold that one, right?
Kevin: No...
Ruthie: Well, you're going to look soon, right?
Lucy: Well, yeah, eventually.
Ruthie: No, no, no, not eventually. Now... today. You can't tell mom and dad you're not moving, they'll crack.
Lucy: No, they won't.
Kevin: I think they will.
Ruthie: Just tell me you're going over to look at the house you're supposed to move into, then go and look at another house and buy that house and move.
Kevin: Really, I think you're the only one who thinks we haven't completely worn out our welcome here.
Ruthie: Dad thinks he and Matt and Simon are going help you move all your stuff over there this weekend.
Lucy: I haven't even seen the house, how does he think that's gonna happen?
Ruthie: Well, I assume he was counting on a miracle.
Kevin: Great... we better just go downstairs and get this over with.
Eric: Get what over with? Just tell me, okay?
Lucy: Tell you what?
Eric: I know there's something going on and whatever it is, just spit it out. I know you know.
Lucy: You know we know...?
Eric: I know you know why Matt is home this weekend, and it's not for some seminar again. He's home because Simons is home. And Simon is home because...? Do you know if Simons' in trouble?
Lucy/Kevin/Ruthie: No...
Ruthie: Simon's in trouble?
Eric: Is he?
Lucy/Kevin/Ruthie: Is he?
Eric: Okay, maybe he's not.
Lucy: What gave you that idea?
Eric: Nothing, I was just... Hey, shouldn't you be over at the house?
Lucy: Oh, yeah, we're going, as soon as the baby wakes up and we feed her, then we're going. We're gonna rush over and take a quick look.
Eric: And then...?
Lucy: Well, then... you know.
Eric: Okay, well, we'll keep any eye on Savannah whenever you're ready.
Ruthie: Then I'll help you, too.
Eric: Okay...
Lucy: Go downstairs and find out what's going on?

Ruthie: What's going on?
David: Lots...
Sam: Yeah, lots...
Ruthie: Lots...?
Sam: Simon's having a baby.
Ruthie: Where did you hear that?
Sam: Sitting right here.
Ruthie: Yeah, you can hear a lot sitting right here. Tell me exactly who said what. Simon said he was having a baby?
David: No, he told Matt.
Ruthie: Simon told Matt he was having a baby. You're sure?
Sam: That's what daddy said.
Ruthie: Daddy said Simon told Matt he was having a baby?
Camden's House - Kevin and Lucy's Room
Ruthie: Simon's having a baby.
Lucy/Kevin: No...
Ruthie: Yes... Sam and David overheard mom and dad talking in the kitchen.
Lucy: Who? Who is he having a baby with?
Ruthie: I don't know. They didn't find out everything, they're six.
Camden's House - Upstairs Hallway
Ruthie: Simon is having a baby.
Lucy: Wow...
Kevin: So now when do we tell them?
Lucy: Well, I think it should go like this. They know about Simon, which may or may not sound bad after they hear about Mary, then we tell them about us, and then our news won't sound that bad at all.
Camden's House - Stairwell
Sam/David: Hi...
Eric: Hi...
Camden's House - Kitchen
Eric: It's true.
Annie: Simon is having a baby? Oh, God.
Camden's House - Living Room
Matt: Hi, mom said dinner's almost ready.
Eric: Dinner can wait. I want to talk to you.
Matt: Did you talk to Simon?
Eric: No, Simon's been gone all day.
Matt: Well, maybe we would talk after you talk to Simon.
Eric: I wanna talk now. I need to talk now. So, Simon's gotten himself into some real trouble this time, huh? How long have you known?
Matt: How long have I known what?
Eric: That Simon and his girlfriend are pregnant.
Matt: (laughs)
Matt: I don't think so.
Eric: You don't think so or you know that they're not?
Matt: I, I'm pretty sure that they're not. I'm certain they're not.
Eric: Well, maybe you're just the last to know.
Kevin: Hi, Matt.
Lucy: If, if you're talking, Kevin and I can come back later.
Eric: No, no, we're all going to talk. Isn't that what you want to do, talk? Let's talk.
Lucy: Okay, first of all, it was great getting out of the house today. Thanks for the break.
Eric: I didn't do that much. Ruthie and your mother kind of took over. So, second of all?
Kevin: Dad, could we talk to you about this alone?
Eric: We could, but if this is about Simon, I think Matt should stay.
Kevin: It's not about Simon.
Eric: But you know about Simon. I heard you talking.
Lucy: So you know about Simon?
Matt: I don't know what's going on, but we should wait for Simon.
Eric: Okay, we'll wait for Simon and your mother and Ruthie because this affects us all.
Camden's House - Kitchen
Simon: Hey, Ruthie, where is everyone... specifically?
Ruthie: Specifically?
Simon: Yeah...
Ruthie: Well, mom's upstairs, dad's in the living room, Kevin and Lucy are probably with the baby and the twins are upstairs taking a bath and putting on their pajamas while there's still hot water in the house.
Simon: Okay, let's talk.
Ruthie: Yeah, lets.
Simon: What does that mean?
Ruthie: Nothing, go ahead.
Simon: Uhmm... I've something I want to tell you now that ah, you're dating.
Ruthie: I'll bet.
Simon: Uhmm... It, it may or may not have come to your attention that I have been the first family member to break that no physical relationship before marriage rule.
Ruthie: Yeah...
Simon: I knew everyone knew! I knew everyone knew!
Ruthie: It seemed pretty obvious to me.
Simon: It seemed obvious or Matt told you? It had to be Matt. It doesn't matter, you know why it doesn't matter... I was going to tell you anyway. You know why I was going to tell you? Because I've come to the conclusion that it's a mistake and I don't want you to make the same mistakes. You see Ruthie, there's a lot, there's a lot of pressure on guys to do it, there is. And it's easy because there are girls who will do it, and it's easy to get into, it's very difficult to get out of once you're there. I just, I want to make sure that you never get there, and I want you to promise me you're not gonna have sex before you get married.
Ruthie: What made you want to have this conversation with me now?
Simon: Because you're dating now.
Ruthie: And?
Simon: And what?
Ruthie: And why have you just come to the conclusion that this was a big mistake?
Simon: No someone brought to my attention recently that the women I've, I've been involved with are, you know, somebody's daughter and sister, and you're my sister and...
Ruthie: Just say it, you and your girlfriend, whoever that is, are going to have a baby.
Eric: Uh-huh... I want everyone in the living room, now. I'll go get your mother.
Camden's House - Living Room
Simon: Why does everyone think I'm having a baby?
Matt: I don't know.
Ruthie: Sam and David overheard mom and dad talking. They know you're having a baby.
Simon: What?
Eric: All right, let's all just sit down and get all the information that everyone's trying to keep secret out in the open.
Annie: Simon, is it true? Did you come home to talk to Matt because you think you're having a baby?
Simon: That was months ago.
Eric: Months ago, you thought you and... Georgia were pregnant?
Matt: I never said a word.
Annie: Wait, that, that was months ago? Then, then why are you home now? Oh, you think you're pregnant with someone again, a second time... Simon?
Simon: No...
Annie: Then why did you want to talk to Matt? What's going on?
Simon: I have a new girlfriend. I just wanted to talk to Matt so I could make sure I didn't go through any scare like that again.
Matt: It wasn't my information to share and I, I advised him to cool it with the indiscriminate sex.
Simon: I'm in love, okay?
Eric: Back up. When did you think that you and Georgia were...?
Simon: It was Thanksgiving... she told me that she was just so I'd marry her. She was afraid of losing me.
Lucy: Are you kidding me? Oh, I knew I didn't like here. Didn't I tell you when I was in the hospital that I didn't like her and didn't trust her? Wait and you knew this was going on?
Simon: Oh, he knew. I told him, but it doesn't matter because it wasn't true.
Annie: We'll get back to that later. What about the new girlfriend?
Ruthie: Simon's never going to have sex again until he's married.
Simon: What? No, no, I said you're weren't gonna have sex until you get married and that... I've made some mistakes,
Lucy: I'll say.
Ruthie: But, you can't tell me it's wrong for me but it's not wrong for you, you said it was wrong got you. I'll promise if you promise me, but I want you to promise me.
Lucy: Promise her.
Eric: Did you and Kevin come down to talk to me about Simon or do you have your own bad news?
Kevin: We're not moving. I sold the house back to the owners.
Eric: Why?
Annie: Why didn't you tell us?
Kevin: We were waiting until Simon told you his bad news about his girlfriend, then we thought we'd tell you, because it wouldn't sound so bad.
Eric: But you are moving, you're going to get another house.
Kevin: Yes, we're going to get another house.
Lucy: You really do want us to move?
Annie: Well, Luce... yeah... you know when you can. Ah, this is a lot of information... ah, in fact enough information for right now. I'm going to finish making dinner, and then ah, we can all eat, and then we can sleep on all this, you know and ah talk again.
Eric: It's not getting easier, it's supposed to get easier.
Eric: Ah, I'll be in to help you in a minute, I just wanna ask Lucy something.
Annie: All right...
Kevin: I'm gonna go check on Savannah.
Eric: Just one more thing... earlier, when I overheard Lucy and Kevin and Ruthie talking, there was mention of a plan. You two weren't going to give your mother and I your bad news until Simon gave us his bad news, and correct me if I'm wrong, Mary gave us her bad news. What's Mary's bad news?
Simon: Well, if no one else is gonna tell you...
Matt: Let Mary tell them.
Lucy: Yeah, it's Mary's news.
Ruthie: Mary and Carlos' news... we shouldn't say anything. We promised.
Eric: I don't want anymore secrets. I can't take any more secrets, okay. I promise I'll, I'll be surprised when Mary gives me her bad news, and I want to know her bad news and I want to know it right now this very second.
Simon: They're having another baby.
Eric: Another baby, but Charlie's just...?
Simon: They thought you and mom would be upset, so they're waitin' to tell you.
Matt: And it's kind of soon. You never know, she might not actually be pregnant.
Lucy: Yeah, she should wait a couple of months before she makes it official.
Ruthie: And once they tell you, it's official. I mean, we're just the aunts and uncles, it's not the same as telling the grandparents.
Eric: Well, I don't know if that's such bad news. And I, I'm gonna want to tell your mother. In fact, I'm going to want to tell your mother right now.
Simon: Remember, you promised when Mary calls, you're gonna be surprised.
Eric: Promise...
Simon: Ow! I had to tell them something.
Matt: We didn't have to tell him a lie.
Lucy: Although, I've got to hand it to you... that was a whopper.
Ruthie: Just like old times... here we are again, lying for Mary.
