Nat: "How can you be pregnant?"

Shubie(crying): "I don't know Nat, I just don't know."

Nat: "This can't be possible! Wait a minute, how long have you been pregnant for?"

Shubie: "A few months. I went to the doctor a couple of months ago, and he said that I was pregnant. I just didn't tell you because, I- I didn't think you'd undersand."

Nat: "Well, you're right, I don't understand. I'm moving out."

Shubie: "No! Nat, we have to get through this, trust me, I don't want to have anything to do with it either. But we have to do this, for our baby."

Nat(sighs): "You're right. For the baby. Now I'm going to work."

Shubie: "Nat, thank you." Shubie gives Nat a hug and starts crying.

Dr. Forest: "Congratulations, Nat and Shubie, you are the new parents of a healthy baby boy." Dr. Forest hands Shubie the baby.

Dr. Forest: "So what's his name?"

Nat: "Why don't you name him, Shubie? If it hadn't been for you none of this would have been possible."

Shubie: "Let's name him William, but we'll call him Billy."

Nat: "Sounds like a great name."
