Tim Bradford: whispering frantically Can everyone see me? Please tell me this is working.
Angela Lopez: We can see you, Tim. Why are you whispering?
Aaron Thorsen: And why are you in what looks like a closet?
Tim Bradford: still whispering Because I'm hiding in our bedroom closet and I need help. I screwed up. Bad.
Nyla Harper: What did you do now?
Wade Grey: Bradford, speak up. We can barely hear you.
Tim Bradford: I CAN'T speak up! She'll find me! She has pregnancy super-hearing!
Celina Juarez: Tim, what happened?
Tim Bradford: Lucy was complaining that the baby kicks as hard as I do when I'm trying to get comfortable in bed, and I... I made a joke.
John Nolan: What kind of joke?
Tim Bradford: I said "Well, the baby IS half me, so what did you expect? Gentle little taps?"
Aaron Thorsen: Oh no.
Angela Lopez: Tim, please tell me you didn't—
Tim Bradford: I did. I laughed. At my pregnant wife. For complaining about our baby kicking her organs.
Nyla Harper: You're an idiot.
Tim Bradford: I KNOW I'm an idiot! That's why I need help! She looked at me like I was the worst human being on the planet!
Wade Grey: What exactly did she say?
Tim Bradford: She said, and I quote: "So you think it's FUNNY that YOUR child is using my ribcage as a soccer ball at 3 AM?"
Celina Juarez: What did you say to that?
Tim Bradford: I tried to backtrack! I said I was just joking around, and she said "Oh, so my discomfort is a JOKE to you?"
John Nolan: This keeps getting worse.
Tim Bradford: Then I made it worse by saying "I didn't mean it like that" and she said "How DID you mean it, Timothy?"
Aaron Thorsen: Full name again. You never learn.
Tim Bradford: frantically whispering She's been calling me Timothy for two hours! And she's been doing that thing where she's overly polite!
Angela Lopez: The scary polite?
Tim Bradford: THE SCARIEST POLITE! She offered to make me dinner "since you seem to think pregnancy symptoms are so amusing, TIMOTHY."
Nyla Harper: Where is she now?
Tim Bradford: Downstairs. Aggressively making cookies. I can hear the mixer from here and it sounds angry.
Wade Grey: Aggressive baking is never a good sign.
Tim Bradford: The whole house smells like chocolate chip cookies but it feels like a trap!
Celina Juarez: Maybe she's stress baking?
Tim Bradford: Or she's making cookies to throw at me! Lucy has good aim!
