Oh. What do you do?

I'm a writer, and an editor

for newspapers

which, unfortunately,

don't really exist anymore.

- Well, I'm a writer, too.

- Really? For what?

I have a blog. Mom stuff.

You should send me some samples.

I'm always looking

for freelancers.

I can pay in exposure

and experience.

Thanks, but, uh,

I think I'll concentrate

on the mom thing for now.

Pretty soon, the mom thing

will be the only thing.

Oh.

My heart rate's dropping.

I gotta go.

Anyhow, if you ever wanna go for

a run, I'm always on the move.

Well, it was great

to meet you, too.

Yvonne doesn't realize

that we're not all here

to entertain her.

I'm Sandy. I live next door.

Oh. Rachel.

- Let me help you with that.

- Oh. No, really, it's okay.

- I got it.

- Um...

Okay, well,

maybe just to the front door.

Please, really,

you don't have to do that.

[grunts] I am happy to help.

And besides, I always like

to get to know my neighbors.

- Where do you want these?

- Uh, anywhere.

- I'll figure it out later.

- Mm.

I met some

of our neighbors today.

Let me guess.

Gary, the silent dog walker.

He doesn't talk much,

which works out

because his wife Grace

doesn't shut up.

- She read my aura.

- Ah.

Other than the fact

that she sometimes dances naked

in her backyard under

the full moon, she's harmless.

- And you met Yvonne.

- Mm-hm.

- The workout queen.

- [laughs]

I walk every day, too,

but I do not treat it

like the Olympic trials.

Apparently,

she's also a blogger.

But she doesn't look like

she just had a kid, though.

So maybe I should go read it.

Yeah, well,

she's not exactly the most,

how should I put it,

hands-on mother.

I seem to be the talk

of the block.

Well, nothing much happens

around here.

So a new neighbor,

now, that's interesting.

What about you?

How long have you lived here?

And I bet I know

who sold you your house.

- Patricia?

- Mm-hm.

Well, she keeps telling me

it's time to sell

but I have a feeling

it's more about

her commission than it is about

finding my dream home.

So, what brought you

to our little neighborhood?

We needed something quieter,

and safer.

And boring?

I, uh, had a bad experience

at our old place

and Peter, the, uh... father

kinda freaked out.

So here we are.

And when you saw this house,

you thought...

"This is exactly

where I wanna be bored."

I did fall in love

with one room.

Welcome to the nursery.

Are you okay?

Yeah. I mean,

you guys are lucky.

My husband...

ex-husband and I tried,

but we couldn't...

I-I couldn't get pregnant.

And then we got divorced,

so... I guess it all worked out

for the best.

So, is the plan to have the kid

sleep on the floor?
