"Let's call our moms." Quinn suggested when she and Puck got home.

"Okay." Puck said as he joined Quinn on the couch and looked at her.

"What's wrong?" Quinn asked.

"Nothing." Puck replied. "I'm just really glad the baby is okay. And that you're okay."

"I told you everything was okay." Quinn reminded Puck. "And we're gonna figure out what to do for you. Together."

Puck nodded slowly.

"The bruises are pretty much gone, and it was an accident." Quinn stated.

"Okay." Puck replied, though he wasn't completely convinced.

"Okay." Quinn repeated. "Now let's tell our moms the good news."

"We'll call your mom first." Puck said as Quinn dialed the phone.

"Hello." Judy answered the call.

"Hi, Mom." Quinn said. "It's Quinn and Noah."

"Hi, honey. Hi, Noah." Judy responded.

"Hi, Mrs. Fabray." Puck said.

"We wanted to tell you that, um, you're gonna be a grandma again." Quinn told Judy as she took Puck's hand.

"I am?" Judy asked. "When?"

"In December." Quinn answered.

"Oh, I'm so glad." Judy stated. "Congratulations! How do you feel?"

"Thank you." Quinn responded. "I feel a little better than I've been now that the first trimester is over."

"Are you two excited?" Judy wondered.

"We're so excited." Puck stated. "I'm done with the Air Force, so I'll be here every step of the way."

"Good." Judy said. "I'm so happy for both of you."

Quinn looked at Puck and smiled. "We are, too."

When they hung up the phone with Judy, Quinn and Puck were ready to call Puck's family.

Puck clicked through his phone and held it up so he and Quinn were in the camera's view.

"Why are you video chatting me?" Sarah wondered as she answered the call. "Hi, Quinn!"

"Hi, Sarah." Quinn smiled. "Is your Mom around?"

"Yeah, she's in her room." Sarah responded.

"Go get her." Puck commanded. "This is important."

"Fine." Sarah rolled her eyes as she got up and went to get her mom.

Puck added Jake to the call.

"Hey!" Jake said when he popped up on the screen. "Puckerman family videochat?"

"Hey, man. Yeah, just give my mom a sec." Puck requested.

"It's Noah and Quinn." Sarah said softly to Ruth, who was watching TV in her room.

"Hi, Mom." Puck waved as his mom popped up next to Sarah. "Can everyone hear us?"

"Yeah." Sarah said.

"Yup." Jake nodded.

"Okay." Puck smiled as he looked at Quinn. "You wanna tell them?"

"You can tell them." Quinn smiled as she leaned against Puck.

"You're getting married!" Sarah guessed.

Puck shook his head as he wrapped his arm around Quinn. "We're having a baby."

"Oh my god! I knew it!" Sarah exclaimed.

"Congrats, guys! That's awesome!" Jake replied.

"Congratulations!" Ruth smiled. "How are you feeling, Quinn? How many weeks are you?"

"Twelve." Quinn answered. "So I'm starting to feel better. My body is less sore and sensitive, which is good."

"Good." Ruth said. "I hope my son's treating you well."

"He always does." Quinn grinned. "We're both really excited."
