Is there much incidence of adverse reactions to...

-No. -OK. Cool.

-Hey. Shh. -You know, it's just...

You do this all the time and I don't mean any disrespect,

but she doesn't know why we're here.

And she trusts us. And we've taken her here to be...

Stabbed with a needle, so...

The most negligent thing you could do

would be to not immunise your child.

-Whoa, no, no. -No, no, no, no, no.

-We're not anti-vaxxers. -We are total science here.

-Yay! Science! -(GURGLES)

(CHUCKLES LIGHTLY) How's she going with feeding?

Um, not great.

DOCTOR: Hm.

See, I had hallucinogenic mushrooms last week

while I was feeding her.

-SANTI: Not on purpose. -OLY: Obviously.

They were my dad's new girlfriend's mushrooms.

'Cause my parents split up.

Anyway, um,

so we went to the hospital,

and I couldn't breastfeed her for a couple days

and now she'll just take the bottle.

-Which makes me sad. -(GURGLES)

I see. Is she taking solids yet?

Soon.

We, uh...we actually wanted to...

..start doing this thing called baby-led weaning.

I'm not sure if you're aware it.

Yes. I'm aware of it.

If we could just walk over here, please.

OLY: Yep.

-OK. -SANTI: OK.

-Head up this end. -Head up that end?

(DOCTOR WHISPERS) This end.

-OK. -Hey, bubs.

-OK, J. Hey. -(SANTI WHISPERS) It's OK.

Hey, J. Hey.

-(SANTI GASPS PLAYFULLY) -Ready?

-Ready? Ooh! -DOCTOR: Here we go. Very good.

Oh, you're very good at that. What's this?

-SANTI: Hey! -OLY: Hey!

OLY: Oh, that's just a scratch.

7.3 kilos. Good!

-She's not underweight? -No, right in the normal range.

-And what's that? -Average.

If we could just go over here, please.

Right thigh out, please.

OLY: OK. OK.

-SANTI: Ooh! -(GRIZZLES)

Hey, it's OK, puchita. It's not gonna hurt.

OK, let's not gaslight her. It's gonna hurt.

-OK, hold her still, please. -OLY: Yep.

Oop. (GASPS)

(SANTI GRUNTS NERVOUSLY)

(OLY GASPS PLAYFULLY)

BOTH: Good girl!

(BOTH LAUGH)

-You OK? -Yeah. I'm great.

I'm not great with needles.

Ah. Well, all done.

-(OLY LAUGHS) -Actually, I might just...

Tonight's our first party since we had her.

It's at an abandoned microbrewery.

So cool. We're so excited.

Uh, she hasn't had any fever?

Uh, no.

What's...this?

Oh, that's just a pimple.

SANTI: Mm.

(SANTI REPEATEDLY SCRATCHES HIMSELF)

Do you mind if I take a look?

-(UNEASY MUSIC) -SANTI: Whoa.

(REPEATED POPPING)

SANTI: Oi, I'll tell you what I reckon it was.

That gross, snotty toddler at library song time

who wouldn't leave her alone.

No.

She was like a walking Petri dish of bacteria and infection.

SANTI: What kind of irresponsible parent

lets their kid out like that?

Yeah. Some parents can be so selfish.

SANTI: It's ridiculous.

-Oh, how did it go... -SANTI: Stop, stop!

We have...we have a terrible disease.

-We caught it from J. -OK, it's called 'im-PET-igo'.

Oh, 'impet-IGO'. (LAUGHS)

OK, well, Mum, I'm glad that you're amused.

But it's actually a highly contagious infectious disease

that causes horrific blister sores.

Yeah. Yeah, that sounds like this parasite I got in Peru.

Yeah, the antibiotics

just napalmed my entire microbiome.

It's not the end of the world.

Now who's gaslighting?

Did you get the ointment?

Yeah, you'll be fine in a few days.

(BOWIE TAPS TABLE)

So...guess you guys aren't going out tonight.

ANGIE: Oh, no.

-So, Mum. -Mmm?

-No babysitting for you. -No.

I'm taking you out to dinner.

Oh! Did you get paid for your pamphlet run?

No, not yet.

(FOOTSTEPS RECEDE)

I was looking forward to babysitting.

TALIA: Oi, here's one for you, Mads.

White girl, brown hair.

May 2003. 47 bucks.

-Yeah, but my hair's pink. -You can just say you dyed it. Duh.

This is so tedious!

Let's go to Dodgy's, have a slap.

-Why would we do that, Madison? -You got a better idea?

(VINCE GRUNTS)

OK. Yep, I tap out. You win.

-(LAUGHS) -You win.

-MADISON: I win. -VINCE: Yep. You win.

-(VINCE GRUNTS) -Anyway...

-VINCE: Madison. -(MADISON GRUNTS)

-You're still coming, right? -Yeah.

-Can you rotate it? -It's fine.

We should probably strap it so you can walk.

TALIA: Do you think we'll even need ID to get in?

(LAUGHS) OK.

OK, what's funny?

It's just... Why do you have a bandage?

Mother makes me carry a medical kit everywhere.

-MADISON: She's sick! -Never know when you'll need it.

It's true.

You know, I was thinking of becoming a midwife, like Mum.

(LAUGHS)

-Seriously? -Yeah.

It's, like, the only job in health care

where you can work with people on their happiest day.

So you're gonna be a mid...husband?

Mid...bro?

No. Mid...mid-dude. Mid-dude.

Wow. Mid-dude.

No.

The correct term is male midwife, thank you very much. -Oh, OK.

I wonder where they are.

Not yet!

Madison, you're gonna peak too early.

-Good. -Mads, no!

ZAC: What do you mean, good?

-TALIA: She's doing it. -ZAC: She's doing it. All right.

-Go on, pop it. -Eh, OK. We're in.

-Oh, she's gonna film it. -We're in, we're in.

We're in, we're in. Eh!

(ALL LAUGH AND MAKE SILLY NOISES)

-(BABY CRIES) -(MADISON'S VIDEO PLAYS)

-I know you're itchy. Come on. -Hey.

(ALL LAUGH AND MAKE SILLY NOISES)

ZAC: All right, we good to go?

Well, this sucks.

I guess we better tell them that we're not going out tonight.

(BABY GURGLES)

Hey, Reema. Share with the girls.

-Thanks. I know, Mama. -Hey, is that Vince?

-(LAUGHS) -ISHANI: Hi.

Hi, Ms Malick. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you too! It's not Malick.

But don't worry about that. Call me Ishani.

Ishani. Got it.

I have heard so much about you.

-VINCE: Yeah? -No, she hasn't.

(LAUGHS)

Would you like to stay for a bite?

-That would be lovely... -No, thank you, Mum.

-We're good. -(LAUGHS)

OK.

Enjoy your night.

-MADISON: TNs. -TALIA: Check.

ZAC: TNs, check. Thank you!

-I should have worn sneakers. -You should have worn your sneakers! -Yeah, as if you didn't!

OK, so what else?

Ooh, I can get some vodka from my dad!

Snap! Go!

-I'll call Tone. -Dial-a-Cone. Boom!

Now, do you want to split a pill with me?

I have a pretty strong attachment

to this version of reality, thanks.

-Ew, why? -Could ask why you don't.

You're at risk of being a killjoy, Quinn.

VINCE: So your dad's from Pakistan?

Yeah. He's Muslim.

-Mum's Hindu. -Oh.

Why did they split?

They were two different people, I guess.

It was never gonna work.

-VINCE: Oh. -(PHONE CHIMES)

Oh, excuse me?

Yeah, we'll just head to the food court,

get some bubble tea, maybe look at a few shops.

You girls and your shopping.

I know! We just love it.

Must be something to do with our wombs.

Whoo!

(WHISPERS) Fuck.

Are you OK?

Absolutely great.

Lovely to see you, Mr Annan.

Lovely to see you too, Madison.

MADISON: Mm.

Mm.

REEMA: Oly! Santi!

SANTI: Doin'?

We're not feeling very well.

-Oh, boo! -Hey, guys.

You cannot seriously be flaking.

Sorry.

I'll just say it - you guys are dangerously close

to becoming a smug couple

who don't even care about your friends anymore.

OK, personally, I would rather be anywhere else than here right now,

so, just saying.

Why, then?

(WHISPERS) We have an awful bacterial infection.

What?

MADISON: I want to run... to Marrickville.

-(PHONE RINGS) -Phone. Oh look, phone.

OK.

MADISON: No, no. M-E-T-H.

-We have an infectious rash. -We caught it from Baby J.

-Ew! -Do you know what kind of infectious rash?

OTHERS: Ew!

SANTI: Yeah, thanks, Vince.

It's called impetigo. OK, everyone?

School sores. They'll be out for days. Let's just go.

Man, your baby is such a drag.

Also adorable. No offence, J.

Call us later?

ZAC: OK. Yeah, yeah, OK, OK.

OLY: What happened to your ankle?

(BABY CRIES)

-No? -Yeah, it looks pretty bad.

(GASPS DRAMATICALLY) Oh! I am so shipping that!

-Yes! -(OTHER KIDS SHRIEK AND LAUGH)

-Funny. -TALIA: So, tell us.

Are you two together?

-Uh, we... -You look so in love.

Yeah, sir, that shirt is fly as...

-Thank you, Vince. -TALIA: OK, OK, bring it in, guys.

Bring it in, guys. Bring it in.

-MR HANOVER: Guys. -TALIA: Feel free to kiss.

-Guys, come on. -TALIA: Everyone say...

(KIDS SHOUT RAUCOUSLY)

Can you guys please just fuck off?

Harsh but fair, Ms Tan. Harsh but fair.

-Let's go, y'all. -VINCE: Great day, sir.

I love this for you two.

ZAC: Come on, let's go, Mads.

TALIA: Girl, hurry up. Come on.

(SIGHS)

My system is to start with the straight edges

and the corners,

and then you can work your way into the middle.

I don't really want to do this puzzle.

I'm itchy, Oly, and I'm... (SCRATCHES)

Yeah. Me too.

Do you want to watch a movie?

Can't believe I'm stuck here all night.

It's just so dinky.

Thanks for the ringing endorsement

of the pleasure of my company.

Do you want me to be stoked that we can't go out tonight?

No.

I just think worse fates have befallen people

than being stuck with their girlfriend and their baby,

and you're actually being kind of a dick.

(MADISON SHRIEKS AND LAUGHS)

(VINCE IMITATES REVVING ENGINE)

Flying!

(VINCE IMITATES DECELERATING ENGINE)

-Wait, are you two a thing? -No. Not a thing.

Oh, I need to piss.

Landing safely.

-Thank you for joining... -(WHISPERS) Down, down.

Whoo! (LAUGHS)

-MADISON: Whew! -(SIGHS)

(LAUGHS) Madison's pill's coming on.

Yours too, huh?

No. We're not...

She's really great. You guys should hang out.

(KIDS CHATTER AND LAUGH NEARBY)

(FENCE THUDS)

Sorry, boys.

I could work with the fanny packs

but I draw the line at that mullet.

-Your TNs. -ZAC: Yeah.

They're the new-season chartreuse colourways.

There's literally no way.

-Man, they're girls's shoes. -Yeah, obviously.

-Give me the shoes. -Bitch, please.

I slung kebabs to drunk homophobes for weeks

to buy these fine ath-leisure sneakers,

and, what, you think I'm giving them to some numpty eshay

and his notably thicker friends?

I think, you know, I was reading this article in the 'Guardian'

about perimenopause being, like,

a really challenging time for women.

-Like, are you OK, Mum? -Mmm!

-How is de facto/divorced life? -Yep, I'm fine. I'm good.

-Boyfriend? -No.

-Or girlfriend? Not to presume. -No, no.

You know? No? Why not? You know?

Like, it's not healthy for a woman of your age

to be alienated from her sexuality.

Mm-hm. OK. Thank you, Bowie.

I will give that advice its due weight.

I just think, you know...

'Cause Dad's moved on, right,

so, like, you know, it's probably been a while for you.

Though there was that whole Santi's dad thing.

-But you're not still... -No, I'm not.

-No. That's probably good. -Mm-hm.

-I imagine that would've been a bit weird. -Mmm.

You should get on Bumble.

I'm serious. No, no, no.

Like, you've still got a few good years.

Also, you were a bit of a dick.

-Debatable. -(LAUGHS)

Personally, I am very grateful for Baby J.

You and your babies, Mr Midwife.

I love babies.

I want to have heaps of kids.

When I was little, before we moved here,

I had heaps of, like, brothers, sisters, cousins everywhere.

How about you?

I always wanted a sister or a brother,

especially when Mum and Dad were miserable

and hating each other,

so that sounds nice.

Yeah. I meant how many kids do you want?
