Honey, guess what?
(What?)
You're gonna be a daddy!
(...)
Did you hear me?
I'm pregnant
With child
In the family way
Have a bun in the oven
Knocked up, even!
(...)
Well...we have so much to do
Find a bigger place
Sell your convertible
Buy baby clothes... furniture
Sign up for Lamaze classes
Argue over possible names
Start a college fund
Never too early to start a college fund
(...)
I realize you're shocked
But...
Aren't you gonna say anything?
(I'm sterile)
What?
(Can't produce children)
...
(When we met, I told you)
(Few years back, had a severe case of the mumps)
...
(So...)
(Are you gonna say anything?)
Well...
In that case, you're gonna be an uncle!
