'Lights, camera, action,' Donatel announced.

Peter slips on his house slippers and blows kisses at Tonya, 'I think that we can stop somewhere close, the Stratton Islands, and watch the water expand for miles. Maybe get some fresh breakfast food. Like eggs, bean sprouts, bacon, biscuits, and fresh orange juice.'

Peter hands Tonya a beautiful bouquet of flowers that was delivered a few minutes ago.

'Here's to you, living, loving, willing to my condition, for who I am,' Peter commented.

A beautiful bouquet of red poppies, chrysanthemums, baby breaths, and a single Red Rose.

Peter included, 'Are you ready to answer the question that I have been stalled in asking.'

He brings out a black box from his pants pocket, 'I know this has been a journey, but I am about to ask you if you want to go on another little, I mean a lifetime journey with me. Just nod!'

Tonya, all bright-eyed, 'Yes!'

Peter slips on the gold piece over her finger, 'Will you be my full-time wife?'
Wrapping Tonya in a long, dragged out kissing.

Peter says, 'Remember Dick, Jane, and Sally. How about See Spot Run?

Tonya smiles, 'Yes, oh how times fly when you're having fun.

Peter says, 'You need a better book to read, I got you the book, 'Van Helsing'. I was only thinking about how scared you get. I will be there for you with wide open arms. Not blood, only true love guiding you along the way. Through our lives of many rails.

Tonya cries, 'I too have good news. I have a gift for you, but you can't have it for at least six months.

Peter says, 'I wasn't expecting as much, so you are telling me that I am going to be a father.'

Tonya says, 'I think Marty or Maybelline is nice names. I am hungry.'

'That's a wrap,' Donatel announced.

The curtain falls.
