"I'm not..." "I'm not asking for anything." "Except for maybe mercy." "Like, it would be friggin' sweet if no one hit me." "Well, what have you done, June bug?" "Did you hit someone with the Previa?" "No." "Dude, I think it's best to just tell them." "I'm pregnant." "Oh, God." "Yeah, but I'm gonna give it up for adoption." "And I already found the perfect couple."

"Oh, I..." "I know." "And I... it's just that I'm not ready to be a mom." "Damn skippy, you're not." "You don't even remember to give Liberty Bell her breathing meds." "That was once, and she did not die, if you recall." "Honey, had you considered you know... the alternative?" "No." "Well, you're a little Viking." "(sighs)" "First things first." "All right, we have to get you healthy." "You need prenatal vitamins." "Incidentally, they do incredible things for your nails, so that's a plus."

"I don't really know what kind of girl I am." "Whoa." "Just tell it to me straight, Bren." "You think this is my fault?" "I think kids get bored and they have intercourse." "And I thinkJune bug was a dummy about it, Mac." "I am not ready to be a Pop Pop." "You're not gonna be a Pop Pop." "Somebody else is gonna find a precious blessing from Jesus in this garbage dump of a situation." "Did you see that coming when she sat us down here?" "Yeah, but I was hoping she was expelled or into hard drugs." "That was my first instinct, too, or a DWI." "Anything but this." "And I'm gonna punch that Bleeker kid in the wiener next time I see him." "Mac." "Come on." "You know it wasn't his idea." "Yeah." "##" "##" "(doorbell chimes)" "Hi." "I'm Vanessa."

"June bug has a wonderful sense of humor, just one of her many genetic gifts." "I'll sit down." "So, Juno, first off, how far along are you?" "I'm a junior." "No, I mean, in your pregnancy." "Oh, right." "Um, well, actually my stepmom took me yesterday to the doctor, and they said I was 12 weeks." "VANESSA:" "That's great." "That's marvelous." "So you're into your second trimester." "Uh... yeah." "(giggles)" "Apparently." "I'm due on May fourth." "Great." "My girlfriends tell me that the first couple of months are the hardest." "I didn't notice it at all, actually." "Uh, I'm more concerned about when they have to put that, like, elastic band, you know, in the front of my jeans." "I think pregnancy's beautiful." "Oh, you're lucky it's not you." "Let's talk about how we're gonna do this thing." "What do you mean, don't I just have the thing, squeeze it on out and hand it over?" "Mark and Vanessa are willing to negotiate an open adoption." "Uh, wait, what does that mean?" "It means they'd send annual updates, photos, letJuno know how the baby is doing." "As he, or she, grows up." "Whoa, whoa." "No, no, no, no, no." "I don't want photos or any kind of notification." "You know." "I mean..." "Can't we just, like, kick this old school?" "You know, like, l-I stick the baby in a basket send it your way, like Moses in the reeds?" "Technically, that would be kicking it Old Testament." "(laughs):" "Exactly." "Right?" "Do you know what I mean?" "Like in the good old days, when it was quick and dirty." "Well, then... we all agree?" "A traditional closed adoption would be best for all involved." "Shit." "Yes." "Just close 'er on up." "Obviously we would compensate you for all your medical expenses." "Are you looking for any other type of compensation?" "Excuse me?" "What?" "No." "No, I don't want to, you know, sell the thing." "I just..." "I want..." "I just want the baby to be with people who are gonna love it and be good parents, you know?" "Um..." "I mean, l-I'm in high school." "Dude, I'm-I'm just..." "I'm ill-equipped." "Well, you're doing a beautiful and a selfless thing for us." "Vanessa's wanted a baby ever since we got married." "I want to be a mommy so badly." " (laughs)" " You don't say." "Have you ever felt like you were just born to do something?" "MAC:" "Yes." "Heating and air-conditioning." "There you go." "I was born to be a mother." "Some of us are." "How about you, Mark?" "Are you, uh..." "looking forward to being a dad?" "Mmm." "Betcha." "Yeah." "Every guy wants to be a father, wants to coach the soccer team and help out with the science fair... the volcano goes off..." "I don't know." "(laughs):" "Yeah." "All that." "VANESSA:" "Maybe Gerta could take us through the preliminary documents that you've drawn up." "J UNO:" "Sweet." "Yeah, uh, could I use the facilities first?" "'Cause being pregnant makes me pee like Seabiscuit." "Sure." "The downstairs bathroom's being retiled, but if you go upstairs and then to the right and to the..." "Oh, yeah." "The room with the toilet." "Is she all right?" "(laughs softly)" "(scary growl)" " Oh!" "It's you." " Sorry." "Sorry." "I didn't expect to see you up here." "Just came up to get something." "Did your wife send you up here to spy on me?" "No." "What?" "Do we come off as paranoid yuppies or something?" "Well, I..." "I stole a squirt of your wife's perfume." " Really?" " It's Clinique Happy." "Get a whiff of those sparkling' top notes." "Oh, yeah." "That supposed to make me feel... happy?" "You should feel happy, homes." "I'm giving you and Vanessa the gift of life- sweet, screaming, pooping life- and you don't even have to be there" " when it comes out all covered in, um..." " Viscera." "Blood and guts." "Uh..." "Whoa!" "Is that a Les Paul?" "Yes, it is." "Vanessa gave me my own room for all my stuff." "She gave you your own room in... in... in... in your whole house for your..." "for your stuff?" "Wow." "She's got you on a long leash there, Mark." "Oh, it's beautiful!" "You know, I always loved Gibson more than Fender." "Like, just..." "What do you play?" "Um..." "I rock a Harmony." "Oh." " Is it mahogany?" " Yeah." "And what happens if you crack the neck?" "I mean, that must be, like, a bitch to..." "Tell me about it." "I used to play in this real tight band when I lived in Chicago, and this one night we opened up for the Melvins, and I busted that thing right onstage." "It cost me $800 just to get it fixed." "Whoa." "So... so when was that?" "Was that, like?" "'93." "Best time for rock 'n' roll." "Nuh-uh!" "'77!" "Are you?" " What?" "!" " Punk, volume number one!" "You're crazy." "You weren't there."

"No... you see, my dad went through this huge obsession with Roman and Greek mythology." " So he decided to name me after Zeus' wife." " I got it." "Zeus, like, he had tons of lays, but I'm pretty sure Juno was his only wife." "And she was supposed to be, like, really beautiful, but really mean." "Like Diana Ross." "That suits you." "Thanks?" "You are something else." "Ah... (garage door opening in distance)" "There's Vanessa." "You'd better go." "What?" "Why?" "She hates when I sit around and I watch movies and I don't contribute."

"It's just some stuff I picked up for the baby." "Don't you usually get all that stuff at like a baby shower?" "'Cause my stepmom- she was pregnant with my little sister and she got a million gifts, you know?" "But I wasn't jealous, 'cause they all super lame." "I doubt anyone's going to throw us a shower." "Why wouldn't they throw you a baby shower?" "VANESSA:" "I don't think people know... how to feel about the situation because it's..." "not set in stone." "What isn't set?" "No, no, no, no, no." "You don't think that I'm going to flake out on you?" "No, I don't, Juno." "We went through a situation before where it didn't work out." "Yeah, cold feet." "Oh." "You should have gone to China." "You know, 'cause I hear they give away babies like free iPods." "You know, they pretty much just put them in those T-shirt guns and shoot them out at sporting events." "Your parents are probably wondering where you are." "Nah." "I mean, I'm already pregnant, so what other kind of shenanigans could I get into?" "Though, I should..." "I should probably bounce."

"Oh, they just... you know, they wanted to know about the stuff and I said I'd keep them updated, so I did." "Well, you could have mailed it to them." "Why would you drive an hour out to EastJesus Nowhere?" "# Mm-mm!" "# I just did." "You know, and while Mark and I were waiting for Vanessa, we, uh, we watched The Wizard of Gore and then he burnt me a couple CDs of this weird music." "So, it was cool." "He's kind of cool." "Juno, you can't just drop in on them like that." "No, it... it was not a big deal." "He was totally cool with it." "You don't understand." "Mark is a married man." "There are boundaries." "Oh, come on." "Listen, Brenda..." "Now you're acting like you're the one who has to go through this." "Like you're the one who has to get huge and shove a baby out of your vag for someone else." "And what does it even matter if he's married?" "I can have friends that are married." "It doesn't work that way, kiddo." "You don't know squat about the dynamics of marriage." "You don't know anything about me." "I know enough." "We don't even have a dog." "Yeah, we don't have a dog because you're allergic to their saliva." "I have sacrificed a lot for you, Juno, and in a couple years, when you move out," "I'm going to get Weimaraners." "Oh, dream big." "Oh, go fly a kite!" "Hey, Juno." "What can I do for you?" "Uh, Bleeker home?" "Bleeker's mom was possibly attractive once, but now she looks like a hobbit." "You know the fat one that was in The Goonies?" "Hey, man." "Don't concentrate so hard." "I think I can smell your hair a-burnin'." "Hey, what's up?" "Not much." "I just..." "wanted to come say hey." "I mean, I miss like... just hanging out with you on school nights, you know." "Orange tic tacs are Bleeker's one and only vice." "The day I got pregnant, his mouth tasted really tangy and delicious." "Boy, you really... really seem to be getting, uh, pregnant-er these days." "Yeah." "You know, I set up this whole private adoption, and this... this married couple in like St. Cloud, they're..." "they're going to be the parents." " So, it's..." " Really?" "Yeah." "Wow, what are they like?" "Well, I mean, the guy- he's awesome." "His name is Mark and, um... he likes old horror movies and he plays the guitar." "We actually hung out this afternoon." "Is that normal?" "Probably not, but..." "Listen, I talked to Dad and Bren and they said they wouldn't narc you out to your folks, so..." "Okay." "I think we should be cool, you know?" "That's a relief." "I'm gonna start looking like a pretty big dork soon." "You still going to think I'm cute when I'm huge?" "I always think you're cute." "I think you're beautiful." "Geez, Bleek." "I do." "Hey, June bug, you know, when this is all over we should get the band back together." "Yeah." "I mean, that would be..." "that would be awesome." "I mean, once Tino gets the new drumhead, we're just, like, ready to rock." "And, I mean, we could... we could always get back together, too." "It's an option." "Oh... were we together?" "Yeah, we were once, you know..." "that... that time." "What about Katrina De Voort?" "You could totally go out with Katrina De Voort." "I don't like Katrina." "She smells like soup." "I mean, have you ever smelled her?" "And her whole house smells like soup." "Okay..." "So we have custard and cheesecake." "They're yellow." "Right." "I wanted to pick something that was gender-neutral until we get the baby and then we can just add a more decisive palette." "Why does everybody think yellow is gender-neutral?" " I don't know any guy with a yellow bedroom." " It's for babies." "I'm thinking more custard." "Just with this light." "I don't know, maybe I should I should paint a larger swatch or just try it on a different wall..." "Or you can wait a few more months." "Like the baby's going to come storming in here demanding dessert-colored walls." "What to Expect says that readying the baby's room is an important process for the woman." "Especially if you're adopting." "It's called "nesting."" "Nesting?" "Yeah." "Are you going to build a crib out of sticks and spit?" "Hmm?" "Well, you should read the book." "I flagged the daddy chapters." "They're..." "I think it's too early to paint." "That's my opinion." "I disagree." "This wall is going to need something." "Our first family photo right in the middle." "Right up there." "Can you see it?" "Yum!" "This pretzel tastes like a friggin' donut." "Well, share the love, sweetie." "No, you can't have any." "She's assaulting me." "She's denying me fresh-baked goodness." " Oh, my God." " What?" "That's her." "That's Vanessa Loring." "Of the PennySaver Lorings?" "Dude, she's, like, really pretty." "You sound, like, totally shocked or something." "She's totally going to, like, steal that little kid for her collection." "Right?" "Seriously." "Boring." "Ah..." "Oh, I could so go for, like, a huge cookie right now with, like, a lamb kebab simultaneously." "God, spermie, must you always feed?" "It's like never ending, pretty much, you know." "Juno!" " Hi." " Hi, Juno." "Vanessa, what, what brings you to the mall today?" "I was just shopping, you know, with my girlfriends, and..." "You're gay?" " No." " Oh, please, just ignore her." "Okay." "Well, how are you feeling?" "Great." "Everything's stupendous, you know." "Oh, coming in on that snooze button." "Wow." "It's incredible." "Huh." "Oh, God." "What?" "Kicking... kicking away." "Could... could I feel it?" "Are you kidding?" "Oh." "God, that's cool." "Everyone's just, like, grabbing my belly all the time." "It's crazy, but I'm a legend, you know." "They call me the cautionary whale." "I can't feel anything." "It's not moving for me." "Well, you should try talking to it, 'cause, like, supposedly they can hear you even though it's all, like, 10,000 leagues under the sea." "(clears throat)" "Hi, baby." "Um..." "It's me." "It's..." "Vanessa." "I can't wait to meet you." "Can you hear me, baby?" "Sweet angel?" "I felt him!" "Oh, God." "That was magical." "(cooing)" "(quietly):" "Thank you." "Thank you."
