Tim Bradford:
Okay, guys... I'm really starting to get worried here.
Celina Juarez:
Tim, buddy, what happened? You sound like you've seen a ghost.
Bailey Nune:
Did something happen to Lucy? Is she okay?
Tim Bradford:
I don't know how to explain this... but Lucy's cravings are out of control. First, she asked for a veggie burger with fries and extra pickles, right? So I go out, get it, bring it back, and—she starts crying because the burger was "lonely."
John Nolan:
Lonely burger? Wait, what?
Tim Bradford:
Yeah. Apparently, the veggie burger couldn't feel her love or something?
Nyla Harper:
Oh man, Tim. This is just the beginning.
Angela Lopez:
Yup, trust me. We all went through it. The cravings, the weird emotions—it's all a rite of passage.
Bailey Nune:
I feel bad for you, Tim. I've never seen someone so nervous about veggie burgers.
Tim Bradford:
I'm legit scared right now. She's also complaining about cramps and being sour? She's acting like she's made of sourdough bread or something.
Tamara Collins:
Tim, honey, you're going to have to let that one go. Hormones are in full swing right now.
Tim Bradford:
I don't think I can. She's pacing around the apartment, and when I try to help, she cries about how "the onion rings just aren't crunchy enough."
Sergeant Grey:
I have to say, I wasn't prepared for that level of chaos in a relationship.
Lucy Chen:
Guys, I'm right here, you know.
Tim Bradford:
And she can hear you!
Angela Lopez:
Look, Tim, it's going to get worse before it gets better. Just wait until she starts asking for midnight snacks. You're gonna be chasing ice cream and pickles at 3 a.m.
Bailey Nune:
Yeah, just stock up on snacks, Tim. She'll be fine. She's just in the "mood swings and cravings" phase.
Tim Bradford:
Okay, but what if she asks for something crazy? What do I do then?
Lucy Chen:
What's crazy? I'm just asking for pickles and onion rings.
Tamara Collins:
If you're craving something weird, just go with it. Trust me. My best friend had a full-on obsession with chocolate covered potato chips.
Sergeant Grey:
Chocolate covered potato chips... that sounds... disgusting.
Celina Juarez:
I'm not even going to comment. You just... roll with it, Tim.
Tim Bradford:
So, you're all telling me I just have to put up with this forever?
John Nolan:
Not forever. Just... the next nine months.
Nyla Harper:
And after that, a whole new set of challenges.
Bailey Nune:
Trust me, Tim. You'll survive. Probably.
Tim Bradford:
Alright, alright. I'm getting the hang of it. But I swear, if she asks for a peanut butter pickle sandwich, we're having a serious talk.
Lucy Chen:
You know what? That actually sounds kind of good...
Tim Bradford:
Oh God.
Sergeant Grey:
I don't think I've ever seen Tim this scared of food before.
Lucy Chen:
Tim, relax. I'm calm now. Promise.
Tamara Collins:
Yeah, she's just tired and craving some weird stuff. Don't worry, you'll be fine, Tim.
Tim Bradford:
Fine. That's what you're all calling this?
Celina Juarez:
It's just the beginning.
Lucy Chen:
And it's gonna be a fun ride!
Tim Bradford:
I'm doomed.
Bailey Nune:
Good luck, Tim. You're gonna need it.
Lucy Chen:
Oh, by the way, Tim, could you grab me a chocolate milkshake too? I'm feeling a bit thirsty.
Tim Bradford:
Seriously?
Angela Lopez:
Good luck, Tim. You'll need it.
