Mitzi sits down at her computer desk the next morning.
Mitzi: What the-? Why is my computer in here, instead of in my office?
So, she goes to check her office…
Ray has managed to scrape up enough money to start the baby’s nursery. Mitzi realizes that she has the sweetest husband ever.
Cleaning a bathtub is difficult when you’re in your third trimester of pregnancy.
Ray is in the living room watching TV after Mitzi has gotten dressed.
Mitzi: I love the baby’s new room!
Raymond: It’s not much, but-
Mitzi: *interrupts* Shhh…. it’s perfect!
Raymond: Glad you like it!
Mitzi: So do you have any thoughts on what we should name the baby?
Raymond: If it’s a boy… I like Trent, but for a girl… I was thinking Sonia. What about you?
Mitzi: I don’t know, I always liked those combo names.
Raymond: Combo names?
Mitzi: Yeah… like if the mom’s name is Felicia and the dad’s name is Joe… you name the baby Jolicia.
Raymond: Yeah, but our names don’t exactly go together like that. What would we do? Name the baby Rayzi or Mitmond?
Mitzi: I guess that wouldn’t work for us, would it?
Raymond: No… not at all.
Stands up to leave the room.
Mitzi: I do kind of like Zimond though!
Raymond: No way Mitzi.
Mitzi: Raymit or Mitray?
Raymond: No Mitzi!
Mitzi: *chuckles* No combo names?
Raymond: No combo names… at all!
A nap for the pregnant lady.
Ray’s sister Gladys comes to visit.
Gladys: So, how’s married life so far?
Raymond: Great… Mitzi’s the best thing that’s happened to me and to top that, I’ll be a father any day now.
Gladys: You know how I feel about marriage and so-called commitment, but you and Mitzi’s relationship actually gives me hope!
Raymond: *sarcastic* Really? I’m shocked! What has the world come to?
Gladys’ visit is a good excuse for Ray to make drinks at his bar.
Raymond: So… if Mitzi and I give you hope, can I expect to attend your wedding anytime soon?
Gladys: Ha, don’t hold your breath!
Raymond: Don’t wait too long… my son or daughter will need a cousin to play with.
Gladys: That’s probably not going to happen.
Raymond: Never say never!
Mitzi is up from her nap when Gladys reenters the house.
Gladys: Hey Mitz! You feeling okay?
Mitzi: I think I may be having some contractions.
Gladys: Well that’s my cue to leave.
Gladys is obviously very uncomfortable with the idea of babies and labor.
