S5E4: The Baby Pt.1

Morning
[outside, a neighborhood]
*Nina and Hallie were walking in Hallie's neighborhood. Nina's belly was huge, as she waddled along.*

Nina: You know, I'm starting to think we should change our daily walks.

Hallie: Yeah? How so?

Nina: Well, instead of us both walking, you push me in a wheelchair around the block. I get to relax, you get a little more exercise by pushing me.

Hallie: I think that defeats the purpose of the walk.

Nina: Not if we change the purpose.

Hallie: The purpose is to strengthen your pelvic floor.

Nina: My pelvic floor is strong, thank you very much.

Hallie: It's doctor recommended. Just stick with it.

Nina: Besides, I don't see how walking is supposed to do that.

Hallie: Walking actually does a lot more for your pelvic bone than you'd think. What, would you rather go home and do fifty squats?

Nina: We'll stick to walking.

Hallie: That's what I thought.

That Same Time
[Nina and Steven's apartment]
*Blake and Steven were setting up the nursery. Blake was helping, because she was an interior designer.*

Blake: That's good, yeah. But I was thinking the changing table could actually go over here, in this corner.

Steven: Let's see.

*Steven pushed the changing table to the corner.*

Steven: Wow. You're good.

*Blake smiled and they side-hugged.*

Steven: We should call someone to hang this light, and to put up the wallpaper.

Blake: No, come on! I do this all the time for work. Here, grab that end, let's put it up.

Steven: Okay.

*Blake and Steven grabbed each side of the wallpaper, when Nina and Hallie walked in.*

Steven: Hey, how was your walk?

Nina: It was fine. Why is she here?

*Nina was a little passive aggressive and rude, by talking about Blake when she was right there in the room. Steven was annoyed but Blake sweetly jumped in before Steven could say anything.

Blake: I was just helping set up the nursery, Steven asked me.

Nina: Wait a minute... Why is this here? There's no room for it anywhere else?

*Nina put her hand on the crib, which was right in the middle of the room.*

Blake: Right, uh... I know that it may not seem like it now but it's really popular, actually, to have the crib in the middle. It accentuates that everything centers around the baby in the room. Once we get everything else in order, it'll look great, trust me.

Nina: I think I've got it from here.

Blake: Oh! Sure. I'll let myself out then. Just... call if you have any questions.

Nina: *sarcastic* Oh, we will.

*Blake grabbed her purse and walked out. Steven shook his head in anger and embarrassment. He ran out after her. In the hall, Blake and Steven were standing in front of the elevator, holding hands.*

Blake: Honey, it's okay.

Steven: It's not.

Blake: I don't mind, really.
