"In a traditional Japanese Soba House, high-volume slurpage is de rigueur." "Paternity results, anyone?" " Ah." " Thank you, sir." "Nice job, warp-speed." "Yeah, it's good to be the king." "So previous arrest files had Tahvalli's DNA blood work." "Compared it with Grace's prenatal tests, and paternity just got pushed past the shadow of a doubt." "So the target of your investigation sired a child with our witness." "Which makes custody an issue." "Are you kidding me?" "Notifying Tahvalli is way too dangerous." "If we put him in the same room with Grace, let alone give the guy visitation rights" "What are you suggesting, inspector?" "I'm suggesting the man's a criminal, and what he doesn't know won't kill him." "WITSEC protocol." "We gotta tell him." "Yeah, the precedent was established back in the '80s." "Career criminal figures out his pregnant ex is likely in WITSEC, he sues the federal government for kidnapping his unborn son." "Asshole won." "We had to arrange visitation." "Okay, so say we arrange visitation, and say Tahvalli, by some miracle, doesn't kill Grace, you know where this could go." "Yeah, Ali makes a sales pitch to Grace, she takes the deal, 36 hours later, they're happily ensconced in some island cabana somewhere sucking down frozen mojitos." "Exactly." "What can I say?" "It's a risk." "But our hands are tied." "Here." "Slurp on that." "And relax." "Each breath takes you deeper and deeper into your body." "And remember, even the little things-- a simple stroke of your partner's hair can really soothe her and help create a wonderful and perfect birth memory." " I bet." " Give it a try." "Oh, yeah." "No, I don't need to" "Oh, okay, uh-huh." " Isn't that nice?" " That is." "That's really, really nice." "It is." " How am I doing, sweetie?" " You're doing great." "You're a natural." "Yeah, well, two years of coked-up sex with a drug lord kinda makes you an expert on the whole in-through-the-nose thing." "Grace, shh!" "Be smart." "I'm just kidding." "For the record, I am smart." "Before I met Ali, I was a linguistics major at UNLV." "Yeah, fine, okay, whatever." "Just keep it down." "We shouldn't even be having this conversation here." "All I'm saying is that I had a plan, okay?" " A future." " Yeah." "Well, now you've got two." "Look, Grace..." "You've probably got a million things going through your head right now, but if adoption's one of them, we can refer you to a great agency." "Who says I don't wanna keep him?" "In just a moment, those of you planning a water birth will come with me to the pool." "There must be some mistake." "Your attorney has the results." "There's no mistake." "Grace is carrying your child." "My wife and I have undergone years of fertility treatment." "She would like nothing more than to be a mother." "I could buy her anything." "Well, almost anything." "Gentlemen, much as we appreciate you bringing this development to our attention," " can we get to it?" " Get to what?" "Your rights." "My client being a person of interest in your case does not abrogate his right to pursue custody of the child." "No one's arguing that." "Your client has lots of rights for the time being." "One of them is to decide what it is he wants to do, and quickly." "The baby's due this week." "It'd be best to notify the mother of your decision prior to the birth-- give her time to pursue adoption, if you waive parental rights." "We'll take that into account." "But this is a major life decision for my client." "He's going to need time to discuss the matter with his wife." "There will be no discussion." "I've made up my mind." "Yep." "Okay, great." "Tahvalli doesn't want the baby." "He's worried about how the Mrs. will react." "Yeah, well, ten years of unsuccessful fertility attempts topped off by him knocking up his coke whore?" " I'd be worried too." " This place is amazing." "It's got lollipops on the walls." " Oh, those are balloons." " Oh, my God." "Look at you, all geeked out over crib mobiles and baby monitors." "It's not even your kid." "It's not even yours adjacent, and you're practically lactating." "No, I'm simply guaranteeing the safety of a witness who, short of a full-on show of support at a time of extreme vulnerability, may well look for said support elsewhere." "Does dad need help making a choice?" "Oh, yeah." "No, I know he looks super old, but he's not my dad." "We would love some assistance." "Mother and I are looking for the audio infant monitor 8000." " I don't see it here." " Let me check in back." "Mother?" "Ease up, Norman Bates." "Um..." "listen." "We don't have to get into this if you don't want, but all this with the Templeton's, the adoption, that's all... set in stone?" "Are you serious?" "Oh, my God, get in line." "Tell Brandi and Jinx I say hi." "Hey, I just thought, I don't know, this Grace situation might've churned up" " some second thoughts for you." " Well, obviously, it's churned up some second thoughts for you." "You clearly think I'm making a bad decision." "No, just a hard one." "Look, whatever you're going to do, I have total faith that it'll be the right thing for you, for everyone." "But it's hard for me to stand here and go on about being here for Grace no matter what without making it clear that the same thing goes for you, times ten." "No matter what." "Marshall, I just" "Hey, Stan, what do you got?" "Oh, seriously?" "Okay, you wanna tell her yourself?" "Stan?" "Coward." "Tell me what?" "Spit it out." "No, no, no, no." "Why are you smiling?" "Because Grace is in labor." " Grace?" " Yes." " Is in labor?" " Still yes." "And I really have to help with all that?" "Well, I'd do it myself, but you know, you are more qualified." "No, no, no!" "No, I'm not, I'm not qualified." "I'm unqualified!" "No, no!" "We only had one breathing class, and I barely paid attention." "Marshall!" "All I know is the stroking her hair part." "God!" "Ow, ow, ow." "Mary says Grace's contractions are two to three minutes apart." "She's 8-centimeters dilated, 100% effaced." "What, did you tag along to Lamaze class?" "No, and technically it's called the Bradley method." "How's she doing in there?" "I'm going to say not so great." "Make it stop." "Stop, stop it." "She wants it to stop." " Agh!" " Hey, hey, can we get some more drugs over here?" "Okay, Grace, the baby's coming now, it's too late for more meds." "I need you to just keep pushing." "Agh!" "Make it stop!" "Okay, I don't want to alarm you, but the baby's feeling a little stressed." "We need him to come out now." "So I'm gonna ask you to push a lot harder." "Give it all you've got, okay?" " What's happening?" " What's that mean, stressed?" "The baby's heart rate is slowing down." "We need to get him delivered as soon as possible." "Your job is to keep Grace calm, got it?" " Okay, yeah, yeah." " You doin' all right?" "I don't know if I can handle a doubleheader." "No, no, I'm good." "I've got this." "I got this." "I got it." "I'm good." " Mary, I'm scared." " Oh, you're scared." " I'm scared, Mary." " Grace, you're gonna be fine." "You're gonna be fine." "She said you're gonna be fine." "Just breathe, okay?" "Just focus and breathe." "Okay, just look, look, look, look." " Do it with me." " I'll do it with you, yes." "Stroke the hair, breathe in, breathe in." "And out." "See?" "See?" "That's working, right?" " No, it isn't!" " No, it isn't." "No, it isn't." "It's not working." "You two are doing great." "Grace, we're gonna help you out with this, but the baby's head is having a little trouble clearing the birth canal, okay?" " Oh, my God." " I need you to push hard when I tell you." "Hey!" "Look at me!" "Look at me!" "Okay?" "Mary." "Okay, it's gonna be fine." "I can do this in my sleep." "She does it in her sleep!" "She does it in her sleep." "It's nothing." " Don't hold back." " No, don't hold back." "Don't hold back, okay?" "Look at me, Grace." "You're doing great." "Okay." "Okay, okay." "Good." "Grace, one more push." " I can't." "I can't." " Yes, you can." "Yes, you can." " Look at me." " Mary." " Come on!" "Come on!" " One more." "It's good." "Hard push." "Now, push!" "Okay, there we go." "Oh, got it." " Sweet Jesus." " Is he okay?" "Is everying okay?" "Oh, your baby's great!" "He's great." "A healthy baby boy." "Oh, my God, thank you." " You wanna cut the cord?" " No, I'm good." "Good job, mom." "Oh, I'm not the mom." "I mean I'm--thanks." "'Cause I took Lamaze and all this" "Oh, my God." "You are perfect!" " We did it, Mary." " Yeah." "Thank you." "Yeah, we did it." "Oh, shh, it's okay." "Hey." "How you doing?" "You okay?" "Oh, yeah, aside from the labor-induced PTSD," "I feel like 100 bucks." "Was it really that awful?" "Yes." "Yes, it was really that awful." "I mean, I guess on some level it's amazing." "You know, it's a miracle and all that." "The whole person coming out of another person." "Like a little Russian nesting doll." "Yeah." "Mostly I'd say it was just... gross." "So she's keeping him?" "Yeah, WITSEC gets a baby after all." "Am I crazy to think that she might have it in her to be a good mother?" "People change." "And with enough support" "Hey, after what I just witnessed," "I think she's capable of anything." "How bad was it?" "Two words-- zombie, goiter." "Hello?" "What?" "No." "No, no, what do you mean?" "Oh, Christ." "Yeah, we're on our way." "Come on, we're going to the hospital." " Grace or the baby?" " Neither, both." "They're gone." "The baby's security anklet set off the alarm and the staff called code pink for a missing newborn, but it was too late." "They wait this long to let us know?" "What the hell's code pink around here?" "Sending out the guy with the mop to look both ways in the parking lot?" "Eh, staff didn't see anything suspicious in the maternity ward?" "Anything out of the ordinary?" "Mary's checking security footage." "Maybe she's had some luck." "Yeah?" "Hey." "When?" "Got it." "It's Tippy." "FBI's been surveilling Tahvalli in Vegas."

"Some of us aren't cut out to be mothers." "You know what I mean." "I know exactly what you mean." "Get her out of here." "Can I at least say good-bye?" "You already did." " Come on." " I got her." "Good." "Yeah, good." "Come on." "Okay." "Okay, yeah." "It's okay." "It's okay." "Yeah." "Hey." "Okay." "Well, don't even think about it, pal." "You're barking up the wrong boob." "Leonard?" "He's a baby." "He's not a retired CPA from Scranton." "Well, Lubinowitzes have been trying to adopt for years, Mary, and your placement counselor made an excellent choice." "Yeah, but "Leonard Lubinowitz"?" "That's an ass-kicking at recess." "Oh, well, guess it beats the alternative." "The alternative is facing federal charges for human trafficking." "Turns out Grace had been working Tahvalli from day one." "Baby went from a bump in the road to a bargaining chip." "God, that's just reprehensible." " Using a newborn like a" " Pawn?" "Like a pawn, right." "But not even." "It blows right past "how do you sleep at night" territory and straight into the heart of darkness." "Ah, at long last, the spell is broken." "Welcome back, Serpico." "Was I susceptible to her shop-worn attempts to sexualize our professional relationship?" " Hardly." " What?" "She was a witness, same as any other." "Please." "She played that whole femme-bot fatale thing to a tee, and you bit on it hard." "You guys are so easy." "Honestly, I don't even know how you walk around with those things." "What, that last part?" "That was awkward?" "Good news is Grace will be femme-bot fatale-ing in prison for the next 10 to 15." "And Tippy got his guy, so he's happy." "Ah, well, as long as Tippy's happy." "Yeah." "So..." "So what?" "So, still holding firm on the Templetons?" "Oh, yeah, right, Marshall." "'Cause cradling a newborn for 30 seconds turned my whole world upside-down." "Then why keep the picture?" "This?" "This is evidence." "Ah, for the report, right." "Good thinking." "Marshall, seriously." "Look at his face." "It's like a Pug got tossed in the dryer." "They say you can't buy happiness." "What you can buy are the trappings of happiness." "Sports cars, mansions, friends in high places or in low ones, depending on the view." "But all we truly own, ultimately and everlastingly, are the various people in our messy lives." "This often has little to do with happiness." "This is Mrs. Anders with the Mountain States Adoption Ggency." "Please leave a message at the tone." "Mary." "Mom says there's a storm coming." "Mm-hmm." "What's up?" "You get some bad news?" "No, I just..." "Cancelled my meeting with the Templetons." "It's the adoptive family." "What does that mean, "cancelled"?" "I don't know." "I just..." "Well, all I know is I don't need to know tonight." "And I know that there's about 10,000 deli sandwiches out there that aren't gonna eat themselves." "I'm fine." "Really." "Okay." "I'm gonna go check on the centerpieces." "Yes, good." "♪ ♪" " Oh, my God." " Oh, my God." "You've gotta be kidding." "You've gotta be kidding." " Is that a baby?" " What?" "That?" "No, that's a basketball." "It's just, you know, easier to carry this way." "Frees up the hands." "Right." "Wow." "Guess I should say congratulations." "Yeah." "Guess I should, too." "That's mine?" "Actually, it's mine." "Well..." "Ours." "Okay." "Yep." "Well..." "This complicates things." "You think?" "No, I mean, I was gonna take you bungee jumping." " I have a coupon." " Mark." "Why are you even here?" "I was in town, I haven't seen you in months, and I can't get you out of my mind." "Yeah, well, this probably isn't exactly what you had in mind." "No, but I gotta tell you, you look" "Mark, please, please, don't." "Okay, you don't need to say anything." "Just" "You know, maybe I need you to say something." "You've been pregnant with my baby all these months and you don't even tell me?" "I'm sorry." "Look, forgive me for not thinking you're the poster child of dependability." " You don't even know me." " I know enough." "Not if you think I'm gonna bail on being there for you and this kid." "Wh-wha-- Mark, okay, look." "Okay, I am" " I'm 20 minutes away from playing hostess to a mess of people in my backyard." "And I hate the idea of playing hostess almost as much as I hate the idea of people in my backyard." "And I just cancelled an appointment with quite possibly the sweetest couple in the world, and all they wanna do is provide a happy life for this baby who's put a pretty big crimp in mine." "And now you show up plagiarizing Cusack and say you're gonna be there for this kid?" "I am." "I don't even know that I'm gonna be there for this kid!" "Then I'll be there for that." "I know you're pissed, but I'm glad I came." "Because this, whether you think so or not, is amazing, Mary." "And you're beautiful." "You're God-damned glowing." "I'm sweating." "That's sweat." "Mark..." "I mean, what do you want?" "Honestly..." "What do you want?" "I don't know, okay?" "I don't know what I want." "But it sounds like you don't either." "But I do know that I care about you, and that you could use some help, and I'm grateful that you let me in." "'Cause I've been traveling all day and I could seriously use the John." "You're an ass." "And you really are so..." "Sweaty." "You know you got the song wrong, right?" "I mean, that wasn't even Peter Gabriel." "I know, because I couldn't find a cassette, okay?" "And it doesn't play mp3s, obviously." "And they wouldn't let me check it on the airline." "You know, things don't always go according to plan." "You're telling me." "If I don't go to the bathroom right now" " Go, please." " Yes, okay." "I'll get you a beer." "A beer-- awesome-- or whiskey, whatever." "I've gotta stop drinking."
