All language subtitles for Fifteen and Pregnant (1998).en

I thought
my mom would have
let my dad move back by now.

My old man
split when I was 10.

It was the same
after as before.

Not for me.

If my dad wanted to live
with us again, I think I'd...

Does your brain ever
hurt thinking so much?

Don't say you love me
if you don't.

Stop feeding him!

Mom, Rachel's
letting Angus beg.

Blabbermouth.

It's not sanitary!
Neither is your room!

Girls, quit arguing.

Rachel, please, do not
chew with your mouth full.

If she tried that...

Adam, your
breakfast is ready!
Angus!

Come on, Rachel,
don't feed him!

Tina, please hurry.
Do not miss your bus.

You can't feed him
off the table!

How come Adam
gets to live with Dad?

Because he is messing up.

Adam, get down here!

Joan.
Hello, Evie.

Sorry.

Okay. Anybody been by yet?

Well, no one
you like, just Norman.

Great.

Before I look at
inspection assignments,

could I have a see at
any pending violations?
Good morning, Evie.

That new nursery
just off the interstate

still hasn't complied with
the correct ramp width yet.

I talked to the
contractor on Friday,

and he claims that
the work will be done
before the final notice.

I'll make sure it is, okay?

Okay, here.
Thank you.
Evie.

No, no, no.

Then, should
I start all over?

Thank God.

I said, "I hope Tina can
make it through her 15th
birthday without Cal."

Can you?

I don't know.
He really broke my heart.

And I asked Cal
on Friday...

Okay, I told Cal on Friday
to deal with Adam.

I mean, the kid lost his job
at Parks and Recreation,

and it was a
volunteer position.

And then suddenly
I realized, you know,

I didn't want them together,
having pizza for breakfast,

making him laugh,
shooting hoops together.

Don't want Cal
to have any fun?

No, I want him to suffer!

At least you've got
your girls at home.

Yeah, like that's a break.

You know, they've been
fighting with each other
even more than usual.

You'd feel worse
if you didn't have
them to annoy you.

I wish Laurie'd
move back home,

let me worry about
her and Allison.

She's so stubborn.

Yeah, well, that's a
sign of independence.

Supposed to mean you
were a really good mom.

I don't care what
they call me

if I could just get along
better with Laurie.

All set, Adam?

Look, Mom,
it's no biggie.

I'll still help you out
with the trash and stuff.

I'll look after your car
magazines for you.

Dad, we're
gonna be late again.

This is all right
with you?

As long as Adam doesn't
walk in on you and Leanne.

It's over, Evie.
I told you that.

Look, I'd never...
I'd never let the kids visit
if I was still seeing her.

I thought you wanted me to
help straighten Adam out.

Maybe you should try
and straighten yourself
out first.

Evie, for
God's sakes.

Let's not drag God
into this, Cal.

Come on, Dad.
Let's go.

Got your toothbrush?

Hi.

Let's ride.

- That's crazy.
- Yeah.

Here you go.

You first.

Me next.

You guys want to take off?
We got to talk.

I'll catch you later.

Where's everybody
going?

I got rid of them so
we could be by ourselves,

just you and me.

Don't, no...
That's not what I meant.

Look...

We got to slow
this thing down.

Coach told me he'd
give me another chance.

Honey, that's so great!

I'll cheer for you at
all the games, and I'll
try out for cheerleading.

No, I want to
chill a little.

I can't hang out with you
right now, comprende?

For how long?

I don't know, just...

Through football
season, I guess.

I thought we were
gonna be together
forever.

Look, July to October.

That's almost
forever for me.

It's not like I'm
seeing anybody else.

I'll talk to you later.

Ray, come on, man.

What you doing?

Waiting for you,
we gotta go.

Come here.
I got to talk to you.

What's going on?

What's the matter?
Is it that guy Ray?

Did you guys break up?

I thought we'd be together
for a really long time.

Now, he doesn't want
to hang out so much.

He says it's, like,
football season.

You're not pregnant,
are you?
No!

You sure you're okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I skipped my period last
month, but when I told Ray,

he said he'd never leave me
because he loved me so much.

Thank God, I got it today.

Did you guys use condoms?

Once, in church group,

Reverend Maclay said
if you use birth control,
it's really bad

because then you're admitting
you're planning to do it.

So, you
didn't bother?

I thought I was
finally gonna have a real
boyfriend for my birthday.

Hi, baby.

-Allie! Your mom's here.
-Hi, Laurie.

You ready to go?

Mama's so glad to see you.
Let's go home.

Thank you. Come on.

Bye-bye.
I got your raincoat. Hi.

Say bye-bye.

Okay, Allie,
we'll be home soon.

My stomach still feels
kind of jumpy, Laurie.

I don't know why.

I really hate
looking fat.

Do you think Ray will,
like, really want me
back after football?

Can you try and do
something for her, Tina?

I want my mommy!

Aww.
I want my mommy!

Mom's right here.
Don't worry.

I want my mommy!

Hello.

How is the Spangler
clan, Calvin?

Tina's voice is a gift
from the angels.

Well,
thank you, Reverend.

You're welcome.

Hey.
Cal, what are
you doing here?

I came to pick 'em up.

It's my turn. You brought
them, I get them.

Okay, honey,
I'm sorry, I'm...

I've got to take Adam home.
He promised to do...

I'll pick Adam up later.

Just scoot over a second
and let me sit down

till the Reverend
stops watching.

Tina, did you borrow
my baggy pants again?

You call those baggy?
Shut up!

All righty, then.
Shut up!

Are we kind of
overreacting?
Stop it, you two!

Adam, I do not know what
you are talking about.

But, Tina, I am telling you,
you are not borrowing my
things again without asking!

I won't borrow them again,
okay? I promise!

I didn't have anything
else to wear.

Well, maybe you should try
helping with the laundry!

Now, why do you think
Tina doesn't want to
have a birthday party?

'Cause she doesn't
have a boyfriend.

Well, that is ridiculous.
She's too young
for a boyfriend!

Don't yell at me.
I don't want one, ever.

You mean you're gonna
stay perfect for me

even after you
become a teenager?

Surprise!

Happy birthday,
honey.!

I remember the night
you were born.

I was so excited!

What was Daddy doing?

Well, he stayed by your
side for 24 hours,

and the nurse got really
agitated.

Open the presents.

It's from Daddy.

It's beautiful.

Mom, is this
one from you?

Now, gray is as close to
black as I'll go for 15.

I love it!

Happy birthday, honey.

I'm going upstairs
to put it on.
Okay.

I'll get it.

I've got to go!

Tina, what's going on?

You're gonna miss your bus!

I already did!

I'm just hanging up with Dad.
Please, wait and drive me?

Honey, that
is really cute,

but aren't you
supposed to tuck it in?

If I can't wear it the way I
want to, you can have it back.

Topic this morning,
teenage pregnancy

reaching epic proportions.

Shirley from Beaverton,
you're on.

Good
morning, Larry.

You know, I just wanted
to say that in my day,

children were not
allowed to have babies

in the seventh
and eighth grade.

What happened
to them if they did
get pregnant, Shirley?

Well, that's just
my point, they never did.

I mean, maybe there was
one girl, but she was
already in the 12th grade,

and got a really bad
reputation on account...

Tine...

Have you or anybody
you know, or you...

Been sexually active?

How old were you when
you first had sex?

Twenty. Why?

Because I don't know
if Tina just admitted
having sex herself

or just knowing
girls that do.

You're surprised?

Yes! I mean, I thought maybe
these pimply little boys

just stuck their tongues
down girls' mouths

or felt around
under their sweaters,

but actually making love?

Where have you been?

Remember Laurie?

Laurie was 17 and a
whole lot more mature.

Almost 17, and I don't call
getting pregnant "mature".

I don't believe you.
Don't you remember
how I cried about it?

Yeah. Well, look how
well she's handling it.

As a salesgirl
at the mall,

taking a couple of
courses at Van Buren.

Do you think that's all
Laurie's capable of?

That is my point.

Laurie is smart.
She is focused.

She will make
something of her life.

Tina has always
been immature.

She has never
done well in school.

If Laurie is so smart,
then how come she graduated
with an infant?

If she hadn't had the baby,
there's no telling what she...

How can you say that?
That is murder.

Because I don't
think it is.

I love Allison to pieces,

but if Laurie wasn't saddled
with a two-year-old right now,

she'd be living out
one of her dreams.

I don't know.

I thought I was okay,
but then it was spotty
and only lasted two days.

It's okay, Tina.
That's why we're here.

I don't know how I really
could be, but, I don't know.

Look, we'll find
out for sure.

Oops. Here we go.

...anytime soon.
Stay tuned! When we come back,

we'll be joined by
Channel 3's own Lida Lee

with ten great ideas for
family fun this weekend.

Does she always
go that much?

It's just poop.

What does she eat?

Applesauce, mostly,
pureed vegetables,

breast milk at night.

Life,
what a beautiful choice.

What a
beautiful crock.

The guy's really cute.

Yeah.
When I had Allison,

I didn't get a handsome
hunk or a field of flowers.

Tina Spangler?

Hi, Carmela.
This is my friend Tina.

You got to tell him.

Ray already, like,
totally disappeared.

I left three messages
at his house!

Every thought I had since
July was about me and him,

and all the things
we'd do together.

Now, what do I get?

I don't know.
One of these?

Let me see your
tootsies for a second.

Where are the girls?
What's all the mystery?

It's five weeks since
I've even seen Laurie.

And all of a sudden,
she and Tina have to
cook us dinner.

I want
the back door!

I wanna go out
the back door!

Here comes
precious angel!

She looks
wonderful, honey.
Aww.

But isn't her
ribbon too tight?

Stop fussing
with her, Jane.

Well, it's pulling her hair.

Look, leave her alone.
I know how to dress
my own baby.

You better start
talking. I can't take
much more of this.

I'm pregnant.

Hello?

We're in
real trouble now.

You better get over here.

I'm sorry to let
you down, Daddy.

I didn't mean
to hurt you.

Shh...

I know. I know.

It's okay.

You're still
my little girl,

and I'll stand by you,
no matter what.

I know you've
got a paper due,

so I brought my
astrology book to look
up the baby's sign.

Cancer, I think.
She's sleeping.
We have to be quiet.

What am I gonna do?

You didn't tell Ray yet?

You don't have to have it.

I would never do that!

That's the most horrible,
wrong, gross thing you can do!

Okay, just stop shouting,

'cause if she wakes up,
we're finished, totally.

You could give the
baby up for adoption.

Why didn't you?

I'm not really sure.

I wish I had
never slept with Ray.

When I think of,
like, how it was,

I mean, everybody
must be lying about it,

'cause I thought it
hurt a whole lot.

He kind of pushed me into it.
But I totally wanted to,

partly just to
get it over with.

Will I have to
give up soccer?

Does she always do this?

Try every other day.
What do you think?

God, try to go back
to sleep, Allie,

just a little
longer, please.

I don't care
what Mom said.

What did you say?

I said, still planning
on singing your solo
in church tonight?

Things aren't bad
enough around here
without you messing up.

You're not exactly the
top of the food chain.

All righty, then.

Why don't you move
in some unwed mothers'
home or something?

Then I can move back
from Dad's and take
over your room.

Stop it! Tina,
it's not his fault!

You should have told
us instead of making
Mom and Dad do it!

How do you expect me
to face my teen group?

Everything isn't
about you, Rachel!

How could it be?
Everything's always
about you!

You'll probably get away with
more now that you're pregnant.

Maybe that sympathy stuff
works on Mom and Dad,

but don't expect us
to feel sorry for you.

Come on.

What did you think was
gonna happen hanging
out with that greaser?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I sinned.

Tina?

Come down for lunch.

You all right?

I can't go to church
tonight, Mom.

I can't sing.

Just tell everybody
I got the flu, please.

I don't want you in
the house by yourself.

Then you'll have to
hire a sitter to
watch me and my baby.

When you were little,

I could always tell your cry,
even on the playground,

from all the other children.

How did this happen?

How could you get kissed
and me not even know it?

I didn't do
it to hurt you.

Hey, Mom, look at this!

Adam!

I'll get it.

Angus!

Angus!

You can watch your
game upstairs, Adam.

I was getting ready
to practice the piano.

No, spank you!

I should have
stayed at Dad's.
Mom!

Move!

It's Grandma!
Who wants to talk first?

Me!

Angus!

Don't tell
her, Mom, please!

And don't let Rachel
or Adam tell either!

You don't have to
worry about me,

but Dad probably
already told her.

You know how nosy she is.

Tina?

Rachel, go upstairs and
check on your sister.

I don't want to.
I'm hungry.

Angus!

Merry Christmas,
Ms. Spangler.

I'm Ray Wood.
How you doing?

How am I doing?

Is, Tina here?

We are having
Christmas dinner.

You can come back
and see Tina tomorrow.

Who was at the door?

Your friend Ray.

I told him to come
back tomorrow.

How could you?
You had no right!

Under the circumstances,
I have every right!

Ray! Ray!

I'm still
trying to figure out

why after years
of sex education,

and Tina going to
church her entire life,

she still knows nothing
about safety or sin.

When Walter died,
Laurie was eight,

so I rationalized it was
not having a man around.

When he died,
I'd hold her so badly
she'd cave right in.

I don't know about Tina.

Cal's always been
a tender dad to her.

He's been great with her,
never critical or judgmental.

Right from the start,
when we left your house,

he came right over.
He told her how he felt.

So sensitive, so kind.

Once upon a time,
he treated me that way.

Maybe he will again.

That's why I
never remarried.

(CHUCKLES
Not that there
were so many offers.

But Walter was just
so good to me.

Of course, I didn't have
him around all that long.

You never know how things
might've turned out.

What's Cal think?

He says it's
Tina's decision,

but he thinks we should
consider adoption.

He's right.

Tina says she'd never
give up her baby.

You know, part of me
wants to comfort her,

but part of me wants her

to really suffer
the consequences, too.

Have you discussed
doing anything?

Please, let's not talk
about that again.

Nobody's in favor
of abortion, Evie,

but sometimes a lousy
choice is better than
no choice at all.

I don't think Tina
expects anything from
this guy, really,

although you should have
seen the way she acted

when he came over
to our house.

You know, she's gonna
miss so much, and she
doesn't even realize it.

Hey, but what do I know?

I was gonna be free,

have a different kind of
marriage than my parents,

lots of hugging and kissing,
uninhibited sex, candid talk.

Then I saw Cal in
those bib overalls,

his cute butt
on that tractor,

polishing that seat,
and that was it for me.

Until Leanne.

Girls do die
in childbirth.

I read it in Time magazine
in my mom's doctor's office.

Still don't believe it.

It's true. It said 20%.

I think they keep
it a secret

'cause then no one
would have babies at all,

and then there wouldn't
be any more people.

Good. It'd be better
if we just had dogs.

Did you spend Christmas
with your mom or your dad?

My mom's house,
but mostly with Angus.

Didi's folks
got divorced.

She spends Christmas Eves
with her mom and Christmas
days with her dad.

But she gets presents twice.

Where are you going?

To live with Dad.

You can't just run away
from it, you know.

Why not?

You've got to find
a way to accept it.

I don't want to,

and I don't want to live
in the middle of this mess.

That is not the way sisters
behave in nice families.

Nice families don't have
pregnant 15-year-olds.

Hello?

I'm ready to go.

You didn't talk to your
mother about this, did you?

Wait outside on
the porch, Rae.

Please?

Fine.

Rachel came up with
this idea herself.

And that lets you
completely off the hook?

Is this really
about Rachel, Ev?

Don't you think
we need to talk?

What... What are
we doing here?

About what?

"About what?"
Tina, us, pick one.

I don't want to
talk about either.

I don't think
I have the strength.
Well, I do.

Now, what's this boy
prepared to do?

He's 16!

What's he gonna do,
take her away on his
skateboard?

Maybe we should
try his parents.

By the look of him, I don't
think he has any parents.

I checked records
down at work, county records.

He lives with his mother
and two younger brothers

out by the old mill on 16.

Is Tina really sure she
wants to keep this baby?

Tina is 15.

She is hardly capable
of making major life
decisions.

Looks to me like
she already made one.

Now, why don't...
Why don't you talk
to her about adoption?

I cannot believe
we disagree on this.

I could not have one of my
children or grandchildren

being raised out there
in the world
by total strangers.

Well, just who'd
you have in mind?

I don't know.
I haven't gotten
that far yet.

Well...

You and Tina could probably
raise this child on your own.

If you're gonna do that,
would you at least
consider letting me help?

No!

Don't even ask me that yet!
I don't know if we'll ever
be together!

But...

Thank you for wanting to.

She moved away.

Leanne did.

Before Christmas,
she, went to Tucson.
She's got family there.

I only just heard
about it at Denny's.

I know, honey.
Look, I'll be
back soon, okay?

Look, you're gonna have
fun with Rosalie and Ian
and Cassandra and Jack.

Yeah?

I want my blue blanket!

I want my blue blanket
and my mommy!

I want my mommy!

I hate Mondays.

I have three classes
and six hours at the mall,

and Allie's stuck there
till almost 7:00.

I hope I'm as good
a mother as you.

You remember how
I flipped out at Jane's?

I try not to scream,
but sometimes I just lose it.

I even gyp her.

I buy cheesy diapers
just so I can get myself
some makeup or something.

I mean, kids
aren't cheap,

and when they
need something,
you've got to get it.

What happens if
she gets sick?

I miss school,
and I miss work.

I already have two incompletes
from last semester,

and I've got to keep
my grades way up

so I can get that
scholarship money and
transfer out of here.

I'm gonna do something
with my life.

I mean, maybe become
an art historian.

I might get to
study in Paris.

I don't know. What's wrong
with sticking around here?

There. It's the
gray Trans Am.

Look, don't
expect too much,

you know, he's just a guy.
He let you down before.

What am I gonna
say to him?

That you're
having his baby!

Look, here, take this,
just in case you need
to take a cab.

You can pay me back later.

Thanks for bringing me here.

I used to ride my bike
out here, but...

Not the way I look now.

I'm warning you, Ray.
You try that one more time,

I'm sending you to live
with your old man!

Your old lady's as
big a bitch as mine.

Look, I came over
on Christmas.

That was 10 days ago!
I called you seven times.

I heard about the kid.

I'll be a better father
than my old man.

You're not mad?

I'm not doing that
much with my life.

Might as well
have a kid, right?

I'm really glad we're
having them young, too.

That way we won't
be too old to, like,

take them to the
playground and stuff.

We can dig the same
rides at the fair.

We can grow up together,
just the three of us.

Hey, hey, hey.
Take it easy.

I didn't say we were getting
married or anything.

My God, Tina!

Are your parents
letting you keep it?

All right, ladies.
Let's zip it up
and get it outside.

We have a lot to
cover today. Come on!

Let's go, let's go!

Come on.
Let's see some energy here.

Come on, let's go!

Good pass!

Come on, stay open!
Move the ball, Tina.
Come on, move the ball.

Stay open for it, Cindy!

Get a shot!
Come on, set it up!

Tina, Zoe's open!

Shoot!

I'm sorry, Mr. Spangler.

Tina's never fully worked
up to her potential,

but we expected more
from her, too.

What's happening here?
This is junior high.

We used to attach an enormous
stigma to unwed mothers.

I'm not so sure that was
altogether a bad thing.

Tina!

What happened?
My gosh...

Give her some air.
No, Coach is there.

Mrs. Knapp runs an excellent
program for teen mothers.

We'll transfer Tina
over there immediately,

and if she applies
herself and works hard,

then maybe we'll be able
to see that she finishes.

No, no, there's
no "maybe" about it.

Tina's gonna finish
high school, college, too.

Did it ever occur to you
that maybe you're making it

too easy for these
kids to have babies?

Maybe you should
be teaching them

about what it's like to
really parent a child

instead of what happens
between a sperm and an egg?

And what
are you teaching her?
You're her father.

I'm sorry to interrupt,
Mrs. Crawley.

I was told Mr. Spangler
was in your office.

Yes, Mary. What is it?

Mr. Spangler,
your daughter just fell
out on the soccer field.

She's on her way down
to the nurse's office.

Is she all right?
I'm sure
she'll be fine.

Um, we're
here to see Dr. Ross.

I can't hear you.
Would you please speak up?

Um, my daughter Tina Spangler
is here to see Dr. Ross.

The teen center called?

Age?

Forty-six.

Tina's age.

Um, 15.

Date of her last period?

Hey, Tina, I haven't
done anything yet.

I thought you did.

Would you like your
parents to wait outside?

I'll wait outside,
but let your mother stay.

Don't be mad, Mom,
but it would be better
if you left, too.

Well, she's just 15.

Come on, Evie.

Tina, we'll be
right outside, okay?

They were beginning
to make me nervous.

Would you like to hear
your baby's heartbeat?

Sure.

I called the
counseling center when
I couldn't reach you.

I didn't know what to do.

Should I have taken
her to Doc Carlson?

I'm ashamed
to take her there.

I mean,
this woman seems fine.

Do you think our health
plan will cover Tina?

If they turn us down,
I guess we'll just,
you know...

Have to dip into
our savings.

Tina's college fund?

I...
I met Ms. Crawley.

She said Tina has to start
the teen mothers program.
She doesn't have a choice.

Well, when I was
in high school, um,

a girl got pregnant
our senior year,

and, I mean, she just
vanished off the face
of the Earth.

Nobody knew where she went.
Nobody dare ask.

I mean, she certainly
didn't get to finish
high school in plain sight.

This isn't plain sight.
They're trying to hide us.

If our bellies
didn't stick out,

nobody would even know
we're over here.

I'm just trying to tell
you how it used to be.

Great! Thanks.

Do you want me
to come in with you?

Don't bother.

And in addition to
trying to keep up with
our regular academics,

we'll explore what's
happening to your bodies,

how it affects you
and your loved ones.

We have a unique opportunity
to help support one another.

I like to think
we're a community,
a kind of family,

and I'd like you all to
be able to speak freely
about your feelings,

without fear or humiliation.

Tina.

Do I know you?

No, but I'm a sub on your
soccer team. Well, I was.

That's why
you look familiar.

When's your baby due?

June.

How are your
parents taking it?

Just my mom, and she's
not taking it at all.

She threw me out.

That makes my mom
sound like a saint.

My friend Linda,
her mom is a saint.

She's letting me stay
with her till the baby.

Melody!

There's my boyfriend,
Paul. I gotta go.

Mine's coming tonight.

See you.
See you.

Hey.

How you doing?
How's my little baby?

Well, my family's
all boys.

I still hope
it's a little girl.

It won't be a
little anything.

My old lady's babies,
nine and 10 pounds.

My brother John was 11.

Hey, Ms. Spangler,
you want me to drive?

No.

If I crack the window,
can I smoke?
No.

Welcome.
Thanks for coming.

Now, I know that some of you
are very frightened by what's
happening to you now,

and what's going to happen
to you in the future.

I want to tell you first that
pregnancy is not a disease,

and that none of you,

despite how you may be feeling
this first trimester, are ill.

Now, there are lots of
myths about childbirth.

I'm sure you've heard
some of them by now,

and most of them involve
labor and delivery.

Yes?

I... I heard that
sometimes you poop when
you're having a baby.

Yes, sometimes...

Late contractions
or pushing may cause
bowel movements,

but it's nothing
to worry about.

I've never known a doctor
or a nurse to get grossed out,

and your babies won't
hold it against you.

Okay, now, this first chart

is a side view of the female
reproductive organs.

This is the cervix,
the vagina, fallopian tube,

ovary, uterus and bladder.

Any questions?

Okay. This is a head-on
view of the vulva,

or the outer
reproductive organs.

Now, I suggest that each
of you squat over a mirror

when you have plenty of
privacy and light available

and educate yourselves
about your bodies.

I swear to God, Jane,

when he walked behind my van,
I wanted to run over him.

Should have
put it in reverse.

I really considered it.

And the way Tina looks
at him makes me sick.

Come on.
Don't you remember
what that felt like?

Such an innocent time.

Well, then,
why are they in this mess?

She's just a kid, Evie.
Cut her some slack, will you?

I really want to,
but I want to kill her, too.

Evie, calm down.

Okay. You're right.
I will.

Okay. So...

Where can I get the
hippest maternity clothes?

There is no such thing
as hip maternity clothes.

But try the Emporium
out at the mall.

Do you remember your
great-aunt Virginia,
born in 1902?

Now, she was the first
woman forest ranger.

I mean, that was
before women were
allowed to be anything.

I mean, she lived all alone
in the Appalachian Mountains,

fighting off the elements,
staving off bears.

She lived quite an advent...
Excuse me, adventurous life.

Everyone in your family
always refers to her as,
"Poor aunt Virginia,

"the childless one,
the virgin."

You miss my point.

You can grow up to
be anything you want.

I just want to be
a good wife and mother

and make my husband happy.

Look at this stuff.
It's disgusting.

Well, I thought that's why you
wanted me to bring you here,

to buy maternity clothes.

Are you crazy? It's bad
enough being pregnant

without having to look
like a total loser.

Well, you should have thought
of that before you had sex.

You should have seen the stuff
she thought I should wear.

The only maternity
clothes I need are
three pairs of overalls.

You'd think it was
gonna bust her.

That's why I like
having my own money.

Look, have
something to eat.

I feel too sick.

I throw up
every morning.

Sometimes in the shower,
sometimes when I brush
my teeth,

as soon as I take those
nasty prenatal vitamins.

I'm afraid I'm gonna
puke my baby out.

Worse things are coming.

How come being pregnant
gives you pimples?

All the girls in my class
have faces like pizzas.

Isn't getting
fat bad enough?

I don't know.
It's some hormonal thing.

That's all they talk
about in class.

And they make you sit
at these tables.

I guess nobody's stomach
fits under a desk.

I wish this whole thing
would make Ray want
to clean up his act.

It'd sure help me.

I'm not smoking or drinking
at all, no matter what.

I wish I could tell
my mom I cleaned up,

make her feel
a little better.

But she had no idea I
was into anything before.

Ray says he's
gonna marry me after
the baby's born.

Yeah, that's exactly
what Woody said.

Why are you in
such a bad mood?

Look, when you've been
up all night long

with your kid's ear
infection, ask me again.

Take a look.

Little baby.

You want to know the gender?

Sure.

Are you sure you
really want to know?

Okay, then.

It's a big, strong,
healthy boy.

Thanks, Dr. Ross.

I just love guys.

Hi.
Let's ride.

Ray's got a new job, Mom.

He has to work late,
but he'll be here
in a while.

He's really excited
it's a little boy.

Hey.
What's going on?

What am I gonna do?

Paul dumped me.

This is
Karen Gotatus,

and she wants to share
with you what it's like
to be a teen mom.

I really appreciate
her coming down.

She's still pretty tired,

just getting used to
four-month-old Tiffany.

So, you might find her
story pretty terrifying,

but I think it's important
that you hear it from
Karen's perspective

because she's been there,

and sat where each of
you is sitting tonight.

When my boyfriend said
he was gonna marry me,

I believed him.

I was sure we'd make
a perfect family,

have a little house of our
own with a Christmas tree,

and we were gonna decorate
it any way we wanted.

But he split.

We haven't seen or heard
a word from him since
Tiffany was born.

Maybe if she'd
have been a boy.

But now he gets to
live his life.

Play sports, sleep late...

Party.

I spend my time changing
diapers, filling bottles

and washing
nasty-smelling clothes.

She never sleeps
when I want her to.

Sometimes I beg her to.

We're both always tired,
and all she ever does
is cry, and cry, and cry.

And I don't even know why
she's crying half the time.

I got to stay up all night,

work two dead-end
minimum-wage jobs,

so I can pay $250
a month for babysitting.

I have no money.

I'm lonely
and I'm exhausted.

I have only one friend left
from before the baby.

And it's about to
happen to all of you,

and you have no idea.

I've got it!
I've got it, Ma!

Where were you?

Are you sure you
never did it before?

You would, like,
ask me that now?

Well, Joe says
everybody says you...

I don't care what he said!
It was my first time!

Denise, too.
How would she know?

You lied to me.
That's not true!

Get rid of it.

No. It's way too late.

Well, let's try.
Never! No!

Then I'll see you.
You can't!

Ray?

Little boy.

This is your mom.

Nobody wants
you born but me.

Hi.

You were so badly behaved
on the bus, they refused
to feed you?

All that sodium, there
wasn't one fresh thing
in those fast-food places.

My, you do favor
your grandfather.

Well, where is everybody?

Evie and Tina think
they can hide from me
for two weeks?

We could open
a donut shop at the mall,
and get really rich.

That sounds tempting.

Spending my days
in a shopping mall,

and my nights counting
money.

Don't talk with your
mouth full, either.

I'm not kidding.
I mean it, for reals.

Well, we'll see.

When you're ready,
I'll give you
the family recipe.

Do you love your sister?

Which one?
Clever boy.

I imagine you love 'em both,
but I'm asking about Tina.

I guess so.

Then you start
acting like it.

You're Tina's brother.

You can start helping
your mom out more, too.

You want to grow up to be
a man, don't you?

Well, men help their
mothers and their sisters,

and not because they have to.
Because it's the thing to do.

And it's as simple as that.

(GRUNTING

Tina?

How's it going?

I'm trying to cure gaposis,
'cause nothing fits anymore.

I look like a fat pig.

No, you don't.
How do you feel?

Huge, but at least
I finally stopped puking.

I want to throw
you a baby shower,
Tina, okay?

How about the end
of the month?

I'll invite
everybody I know!

I'll get everything
my baby needs!

Thanks, Jane.

Pick a Saturday
and call me.

You know, your friend here
forbid me to do it for
her, so I'd be thrilled.

I'll tell your mom
it's all set, then.
Okay.

How come you didn't let her
give you a baby shower?

I don't know.

I think I was too
ashamed, you know,

and Woody'd split by then.

Ray didn't show up
at the last meeting.

He promised he would.

Look, forget him.

I know he cares about me.
I guess he just got
scared or something.

And I don't think you should
get married just for the
baby if you can't get along.

I thought Ray
was really cool.

He probably has a new
girlfriend already.

As a matter of fact,

I saw Ray with
somebody at the mall.

You did?

What'd she look like?

Cheesy, really skinny.

Ray's a loser.

Of course, you should
definitely defend Tina
against Cal's mother.

She'll need protecting.

I've never been able to
protect Tina from anything.

The deed is done.

If you give up on her,

she'll run away from you
just like Laurie did from me.

Tina's getting pregnant
is not your fault.

It can't be.

Then what happened to Laurie
would have to be mine.

Here, come to Grandma.

Wanna see Grandma?

Good girl.

What a precious angel!

Hey, baby.
It's time for your nap.

Come on.
Let's go, Jane.

Okay.
There you go.

Thank you all
for coming by.
Thanks for having us.

Bye, Allison.

Bye. Be careful.
Thanks.

Bye.

Where's Dr. Ross?

I'm Dr. Warsaw, Tina.

Everybody disappears.
Ma, I want Dr. Ross.

Dr. Ross went back to Boston
to train in neonatology.

I don't even get
to say goodbye?

I'll be handling your
pregnancy from now on,

so, just try to
relax and lay back.

It's okay, Tina.

A lot of patients waiting.

All right.

Let's see.

I wish Dad had brought me.

So do I, but he's
busy trying to keep

your grandmother
out of our hair.

Well, young lady,

between the development
of the placenta and your
low weight gain,

I want you, from now on,
only to attend morning classes

and rest in the afternoons.

I'll give you a note.

And start gaining
some more weight.

What? I look like
a blimp already!

If I get any fatter, I'll
never go swimming again!

Hello?

Why didn't you send one
of these shower invitations
to any of my relatives?

Why should I?

- It's my kid, too.
- You dumped me...

My old lady's buying
a stroller, a car seat
and a swing for us.

She is?
Ray, that's so cool.

So, it was your idea
to keep this baby?

Tina and I agreed
from the start

that we would just
not be comfortable
with one of our own

out there in the
world somewhere.

This baby will grow up
with problems of his own.

Your love for infants is
getting in your way, Evelyn.

This is Tina's baby,
not yours.

At some point, the child
will live with that fact.
Maybe you should, too.

So, just because I
have failed with Tina

means I shouldn't be
allowed to raise any more?

Girl, you're not
thinking clearly.

You've already got one
family and a marriage
of your own to save.

And I just don't
think that any of you

are equipped to
take on this baby.

She's just a young
girl, Evelyn.

She thinks she knows
everything at 15.

She gets older, she's
gonna realize just how
much she doesn't know.

Maybe she needs a kitten.

Look, there's a little
boy inside Tina's stomach

that's coming out this
summer, and there's just
nothing I can do about it

except try and make
the best of it.

I hate you, Ray Wood!
I never want to see you again!

That won't be a problem...

He'll get you pregnant
and leave you, too!

Ooh, Tina, you
don't look so good.

All of you totally go
for that mother thing,
don't you?

My old lady's in the store
right now buying it out.

You're really gonna score
big at your baby thing.

When'd you get so tough?

Getting over you.

Move back home
and take command.

Mother, this isn't Vietnam.
I can't just charge in.

It's not making
any sense,

and I still haven't figured
out why you separated
in the first place.

Evie and I are living
apart on purpose,

to give each other
some time...
In eight months,

have you decided
if you love Evie?

It's not about loving her.

Then get on
with it, Calvin.

It's not that simple, Mother.

You're operating
without all the facts.

What are the facts?

I'm trying to
earn Evie's respect.

Stop trying so hard, Calvin,
and just do something.

Evie's your wife.

It's the same conversation
we had at Christmas.

Do you have to talk
to me like I'm 12?

You forget about
yourself for a second.

You all have
too many feelings.

The family you created,
Calvin, is a mess.

One is stuffing her problems
back with carbohydrates.

Another's hiding under
those head things.

You're staggering around.

Evie's about to erupt.

And Tina, the one who's
supposed to be in trouble,

is in better shape
than the rest of you,

though I don't know how!

Because no one has
given that child any
real guidance or limits.

That's enough!

Let me come live
with you on the farm.

I'd be no trouble.
I'd work really hard.

Darling, I love
having you, Rachel,

and you'll come soon,

but right now, your mother
and your sister need you.

Tina never thinks
about anybody but herself.

Why can't she give
the baby to some couple

who can't have children
and need a kid?

I agree with you, darling,

but even if we
can't convince 'em,

they still need your good
sense and strong faith.

And you'll feel better
about yourself if you
try to help 'em.

Okay?

Thank you.

Look, Mother,

I know it's hard for you
not to be able to solve
every problem we have,

but that's not
the only thing we want
or need from you.

As soon as you leave,
we just go back to
flapping around,

making our own messes.

There's nothing you can do.

Well, I'm just sorry
you're mad at me for
speaking my mind.

But I can't just
stand by and watch.

No, you've never been one
to stand by and watch.

You've always
spoken your mind.

Regardless of how you
want us to live our lives

or how well-intentioned
you are,

we really are trying
to do the best we can.

I know
you're trying hard.

Try harder.

I was just remembering
one New Year's Eve,

when you were six
and I was nine.

You wanted to stay up till
midnight, but you couldn't.

I still
have that problem.
Not for long!

When you're about 35,
you'll get to sleep in again.

That old?

Yeah, unless your kid
follows in your footsteps,

and then you'll become
the young grandmother
who raises his,

and you still won't
get any sleep.

By my calculations, that'd
make you about 55 before
you get any sleep again.

So old!!

I need my prune juice.

Hurry up! Laurie,
get me my prune juice!

Come here.

No, I haven't
seen you in so long!

Sit down.

My butt hurts.

It's getting late.

Where is everyone?

I'm sorry about
your party.

I know how much
you were looking
forward to it.

You worked hard
on the decorations.

I'm glad Melody
and Linda could come.

Sometimes people can
be unintentionally cruel.

I do wish it had
turned out exactly
the way you'd wanted.

Don't you think I know
it wasn't supposed to
be like this?

I just wanted to
protect you from
all the bad things.

And I just wanted
to be excited about
all the good things.

I don't want
to feel so bad.

Maybe I am wrong for
sleeping with Ray.

And maybe it is
a sin against God.

But being pregnant
gives me something

to finally really
look forward to.

That's all mine.

Is that what you needed?

I wanted to, like,

know what love is,

how it feels inside,

especially when you're not
sure from looking around you.

I mean,
you and Dad were
always fighting,

and then you
threw him out.

But to me, it looked
like he was a good dad.

Things aren't always
that simple, Tina.

Well, then,
explain it to me.

Well, I can't.

Well, I'm gonna be able to
explain things to my kid.

Well, I hope you can, Tina.

All I can say is
that I am so sorry

you could not feel
our love for you.

I thought I wanted
to feel loved by Ray,

only the whole world
was so hung up about it.

I thought it would
help me keep him.

And what do you think now?

I don't know, really.

Everybody thinks it's bad
for me to have a baby.

But at least I'll
have someone to love,
who'll love me back.

Babies take a lot more
love than they give, Tina.

I don't know, Mom.

Sometimes it seems like
there's nothing else to do.

Hi, Mom.

Angus and me want to come
back home. Is that okay?

How come?

Grandma told me to.

I just feel
so bad for Tina.

No one's interested
in her baby, or glad
or excited for her.

How can we be?

At the doctor's office,
she started bragging about
how she was gonna breastfeed.

Instead of being proud
of her for making an
intelligent decision,

I, I wanted to hide.

Our daughter is going
to start high school
as a mother.

That's a fact we
can't change, Evie.

How we deal with it,
that's something else.

I forgot how good
you are at the
emotional stuff.

You know, I've been
thinking how we switched
roles in this crisis,

but it's always
been that way.

Do I deserve some kind
of credit for that?

Yes, I really think you do.

I want to come back, Evie.

You ready to let
me come home?

I'm not sure I'll ever really
be able to trust you again.

I know Leanne left town,

but then there's always...

I didn't say it'd be easy.

There's gonna be another
child in the house
for you to worry about.

Somebody else for you to pay
more attention to than me.

You'll have to give
me a little more time.

I mean, his mother probably
made him swear on the Bible.

I was so nervous myself,
I could hardly focus on
Rachel's coming home.

I hope she didn't
feel ignored.

How was Cal?

Nice.

We started out shaky,
but it ended up nice.

He wants to come home.

You gonna let him?

I hope I can.

I do miss him.

Did you, um...

No! We have children
staying at both our
houses. Where would we?

Those are for the young
lady in the green dress and
the one with the maroon top.

Yes, sir.

I, I want this
to be special for Tina,

so let me...
Let me make a fuss
over her, okay?

Do you mind?
No.

Okay.

Here you are.

Adam.

Happy Mother's Day.

Thank you.

And for the beautiful
mother-to-be.

Thanks, Dad.

I can't wait till my
little guy does stuff like
this for me on Mother's Day.

Anything
else I can get you?

One of the girls in
my class had her baby.

She said it hurt like hell.

Ten-and-a-half
pounds, a boy.

He's sort of cute,
but so fat, and he
has really ugly hair.

You're so lucky that
Allison's beautiful.

I won't be able to
handle it if Caleb comes
out creepy-looking.

Look, it won't be that
important. I promise.

You're not gonna start
lecturing me, are you?

I'm so tired.

Will you get me
a root beer, Laurie?
I'll pay you back.

You're welcome.

You're starting to
sound like my mom.

Look, ever since
your doctor told you
to take afternoons off,

I mean, I've kind of been
waiting for you to offer to
take care of Allison for me.

You could be saving me
a ton of babysitting money.

You never asked me.

Well, how come it never
crossed your mind?

I mean, I was hoping that
it would occur to you.

You're not my leader.
I don't act and think
like you.

Well, it wouldn't be
so terrible for you to
be a little less shallow,

maybe a little bit
more responsible.

You're not that great
either, you know.

Allison could use
a man in her life.

I don't want her growing
up depending on some guy.

I want to teach Allison
to be strong, independent
and responsible.

Good for you, but I'm
not your kid, so don't
lay your trip on me!

You're way too self-centered
to be a mom, Tina.

You just wait and see
how selfish your baby is.

Everybody thinks
I'm so stupid!

Don't you think I know this
baby's gonna change my life?

Rachel fractured
her ankle.
In two places.

I was lying there, Rachel.
I'm supposed to be resting.

Well, go upstairs and rest.
I can't move around too well.

You probably fell
'cause you're so fat!

Look who's talking!

At least I have
an excuse.
Some excuse!

Be careful.
Get off of my couch!

Rae, are you
all right?

Dad!
I'm not kidding, Dad.

She just marches in here
and takes over my couch.

Would you please
make Tina go upstairs?
It's too hard for me.

Rae, Tina's pregnant.

Like everyone
can't tell?

Come on, Rae. Let us
take you upstairs.

No, that's it!
I don't want to be in
this family anymore!

The day school gets out,
I'm gonna go live with Gram!

Rachel.

There won't even
be room for me in your van
when you add the baby seat.

I've always been the
fifth wheel, and I can't
wait to get out of here.

Rae, you're upset.
We'll talk about this later.

None of you should be
allowed to have kids!

The three of you should
start worrying about where
you're gonna spend eternity!

We're really gonna
let her go to the farm?

I don't know.

Maybe it'll help.

Tina will be so upset if
Rachel misses Caleb's birth.

And that she wants to take
a bus alone to Kansas,

I would never have
done anything like
that at that age.

Well, I think
she's just braver,

a little more honest
than the rest of us.

It'll all work itself out.

We just have
to have faith.

How come you're
always so certain?

Give yourselves
a round of applause.

Look how far you've come.

You're all
on the finish line.
You've almost made it.

Next week, we'll tour
the maternity ward.

Come on in, you two.
Come on.
Hi.

I'll meet you
downstairs in five.

Melody?

What's going on?

You need a gown if
you're going inside.

She's not coming in.

I had him Tuesday.

He's almost four weeks early,
so he's got to stay here.

His name's Andrew,
which means "strong," but...

He looks kind of
weak, doesn't he?

Laurie, I know you
probably never want
to talk to me again.

I'm such a little jerk.

No, you're not.
Your hormones are
just screwed up.

I'm getting so scared
about giving birth.

Melody's baby came early,
and he's so tiny.

Look you'll drive yourself
crazy worrying about all
the things that can go wrong.

But what if Caleb's sick?

Caleb will be fine.

You really think so?

I'm sorry for what
I said to you, Laurie,

and I promise I'll
babysit for Allie.

I want my mommy!

She woke up again?

I got to go.

Yeah, okay.
Thanks. Bye.

There she is, folks.

At just 14, she's the youngest
US National Champion.

And she's going to have to
really nail her long program

to hold on to her title
and have a shot at the world's

She's been skating
strongly in spite of
last month's knee injury.

All this pressure...

All these hopes...

All weighing in on
these young children.

Can she stand up
to the pressure?

We'll soon find out.

You've got to
eat more, Tina.

Remember what
Dr. Warsaw said.

I've got to go visit
Melody and her baby
at the hospital.

Mom won't have time.
She's taking me to the doctor.

Who asked you?
Laurie's taking me.

I think it is so
great you are there
for Melody, Tina.

I am very proud of you.

Anything I can
do to help?

Be one of those
ice-skating champions.

I'd like a big sister
who's really famous,

not just for getting
pregnant at 14.

If you want to be
an ice skater, you
should go for it, Rae.

Choose what you want.
Like you?

I didn't really
choose this.

It just happened.

It didn't just happen.

You let it happen.

You'll see when you have
your first boyfriend.

I'll never have a boyfriend,
and not 'cause I'm fat.

I don't want one.
Okay.

I'm never having
any babies, either.

You might. Don't say "never."

People die having babies.

Where did you hear that?
Your church youth group?

Holly read it at her
mother's doctor's office.

20% of women die
while giving birth.

Holly's a twit.

She's my best friend.

Are you scared I might die,
or are you just hoping?

Is... Is it time?

No. Tina's just fine.

I just had to drop
Norman at a nearby site.

And I hadn't been
here in so long, I...

Good to see you.

Sit down.

Want some coffee?

Are we gonna be able
to afford this baby?

The hospital alone is $2,000.

Well, we could always
go against Ray Wood.

I think legally we could
attach his assets.

What, his Trans Am
or his pompadour?

Let's leave him
out of this.

I don't even
want him around.

Well, I...

I told Tina she had
to think about getting
a part-time job,

along with finishing
high school,

as a condition to our
letting her and the baby

live with us at home
until she graduates.

Are we gonna
throw her out then?

You're something, Ev.

You okay, Ev?

Do you remember
how happy we were

when we ran this
business together,

before you could
afford to hire anyone?

Could always give you
your old job back.

I think you have a lot
more fun down at the building
department with those guys.

I do enjoy those guys.

You know, the closer I get
to 50, the more I understand
that I can't do everything,

have everything,
be everything to...

To you, the kids,
my mother, me...

No matter how
much I want to.

Mom.

What's all that stuff?

I don't know.

I was just letting
myself get excited,

thinking I would make
my first grandson
a quilt for his crib.

You know, Mom,
if you can forgive me,

I bet you could
forgive Dad, too.

Okay. I'll see ya.

Don't forget about Angus.

Hey, Rae, you know
we love you, right?

Look, call us later, okay?

Okay.

Adam, put those tools
back in the garage, will you?

Sure, Dad.

Did you really
have to bring your
mother's lamp back, Cal?

I didn't miss
that one bit.

Wow!
How's Andrew doing?

Bye!

The doctor says he's
gonna be okay, but,

I just don't
know about me.

Will you start
high school in the fall?

I don't know.

Well, they let you bring
your baby to school.

How will we do homework?

My friend Laurie brings
the car seat inside,

puts it on the floor
near her desk,

and rocks the baby
with her foot.

Has Paul seen
his baby yet?

I called his mom,

and told them
about Andrew being
early and all, but,

I haven't heard from
her or anything.

How's Ray?

He's totally gone,

but I think I'm, like,
just about over him.

Welcome,
parents and graduates...

Do you feel bad
about missing your
real graduation?

It's just one of
a lot of things
I could feel bad about.

All you Clover Lake graduates,
you made it. Let's party!

May I have this dance?

Don't be weird.

I'm way too fat to dance.

Not to me.

I think you're beautiful.

Put your hand right there.

Calvin Spangler,

you are the sweetest
dad on Earth.

I hope someday Tina
has a man that

loves her as much
as I love you.

You want to feel him kick?

It's really cool.
All righty, then!

Feels pretty weird.

Does it hurt to have
your skin stretched
and shiny like that?

No, you just get these
creepy-looking things
called stretch marks.

But Laurie gave me
some cream that, like,
helps get rid of 'em.

I'd hate to never
wear a bikini again.

Don't you think Ray should
have to do something

for having his kid
living inside of you?

Like, pay rent?

I'm sorry, Tina.

But if I got a
girl in trouble,

I swear I'd stand by her.

I really would.

You know what, Adam?

You really are
a twit, but you're
a totally nice twit.

Okay.

I haven't smoked
in 11 years.

But I suddenly realized,
after a year of being alone,

I'm really terrified Cal
came home to save Tina.

Can't you just be glad
to have him back?

I didn't know
how lonely I was.

I'm happy for you.

Are you?

Thanks.

Aw, look, Mom!

It's so cute!

Aw, look, the little
stuffed animals. Look!

Aw!

I love that.
And a puppy.

It's $10.

Look, Mom!

This one makes
music, though.

Okay, now I have to rest.

I never had that much energy
when I was that far along.

I always have energy
for shopping.

Look at the
little carriage, Mom.

Come on. I want it.
Look. Aw!

Look at it, Mom.

It's so cute!
Look.

I love it!
Okay, look.

See if it works.
It does, it works.

I love it so much!

Come on, let's go!
Whoo! I got it.

It is
beautiful in here.

Cal, when did you have
time to do all this?

Adam did most
of it this morning

while Tina was
watching Allison.

Laurie had some
kind of exam to take.

You know, Caleb
will be the sixth baby
to use this bassinet.

Hey, look what
I got downstairs.

Here.

And we could set
it by the window,

and then she can
look out here.

That'd be nice,
don't you think?

Yep.

Dear.

Did you get your grades?

Yeah, I got three A's.

That's so great.

Where's Allie?

She's downstairs
with your folks.

They look like
they're rehearsing.

It's so sweet in here.

My dad and Adam did it.

And my mom put a rocking
chair here for me.

I washed all the new
clothes, the bedding.

What if I forget
to breathe?

I thought
I was gonna die.

All I wanted was Jane.
I was screaming for her.

You were?

You know, we're really
lucky to have our kind of
moms instead of Melody's.

Will part of me always
have to love Ray
because it's our baby?

No. I think of Woody
sometimes when

I can't stand how hard
it is to do it alone.

And sometimes Allison,
she even looks like him.

But I don't think that
Ray would have been
much help to you.

You know, he's not
good enough to love
either you or your baby.

You're dilated
two centimeters.

You're 80% effaced.

But the baby's heart rate
is a little uneven.

What
does that mean?

That's very normal
in young mothers,

no reason to
be concerned.

It just means your
water probably won't
break by itself.

If you haven't gone
into labor by Monday,
I want to induce.

Sounds okay to me.
I'm ready to let this guy out.

Will you be in
the delivery room?

There's a good chance.

But, still, it depends
on who's on call.

- I got your stuff.
- Thanks, Mom.

Don't forget this.

All right. Let's go.

Come on.

Alley-oop.

Call your grandmother
right away.

It's okay.

Breathe.
Breathe.

Good.
There you go.

Breathe.

I can't! I can't!

You're doing
great, honey.

Come on.

Shut up!

I can't!

It hurts!

It's okay, it's
okay. Just push.

Good.

That's a girl.
There?

There you go.

What a good girl.

My girl.

No.

Get out.

Hey, hey, it's my kid, too.

Not today. Sperm doesn't
entitle you to much.

Now, you and your friend,

you go wait in the
room down the hall.

The nurse will bring
him out for you to see.

Ray, what's going on?

I'll tell you
in a minute.

Good, good.
Push, honey.

Come on, Tina.

Hold on. You are
about to meet Caleb.

Let's breathe, okay?

Good, Tina, good.

One, two,
three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine...

It hurts!

Push again.

One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight,
nine, ten.

One more, baby.

One, two,
three, four...

All right,
help me out now.

One big last push, and you'll
bring your son into the world.

Okay?

Good! Good, good.

Hey.

There.

My baby.

Look, baby.
Look, baby.

Look, baby.
Look, baby.

Is he all right?
Is he okay?

He's okay.

Caleb! Hi, baby.
Hi, Caleb.

Little Caleb, hi.

Hi, Caleb.

He's perfect.
You did good.

You're so perfect.
You're perfect.

Yes, he is.
Good girl.

Caleb Spangler.
I's quite a mouthful.

Wonder where
she came up with that.

She said it's on
account of the Bible,

but I believe
it's because of you.

She wanted another
"Cal" in her life.

I cannot imagine
a bigger day,

except maybe her wedding.

Wish that had come first.

Me too.

I can't stop thinking
that everything will turn
out for her in the end.

I cannot believe Tina went
through labor and delivery
before she drove a car.

And I...

I can't believe we
all came through it
in one piece.

We got a baby.

Hi, Grandma.
Hi, darling.

Hello. Look.

You look thinner.

So do you.

Look at that.

I was so afraid he'd
come out goofy-looking.

I don't have any idea
what's gonna happen to me,

but for the rest
of my life, I'm gonna
be somebody's mother,

whether I want it or not.

Babies are nice,
if you're ready.

But it takes a lot to care
about somebody else

more than you care
about yourself,

especially when
you're still a kid.
