Divination

Hey honey,

you almost ready?

They're gonna be

here any minute.

Yeah, i'm ready

That was the first time

and the last, actually,

That i ever offered to

take jason and a date

In my dad's truck.

Speaking of dads, happy

father's day tonight.

Thank you.

Oh, yeah, congratulations.

What is this like

your guys' 12th child?

This would be

our fourth, jason.

Speaking of which,

you guys trying?

Look it, why is it

when a couple has a child,

You immediately want

everyone else to join in,

Like, your misery club?

No, no, no, no.

Once you have your first kid,

You're gonna ask yourself

why you waited so long.

You are.

They're a gift.

Guess who's coming

back into town.

Who?

De.

- Really?

Oh, my god, i haven't seen

her since high school.

When's she coming back?

Three days.

Wow, it will be

so good to see her.

I think it

will be magical.

Yeah, i guess

you could say that.

So how is work

treating you?

I've been trying to

get to work from home,

But i'm afraid my boss

isn't gonna let me.

I've got to prove to

him that i can work

Without direct supervision.

Ah.

That way i can have

more creative freedom

With my sketch es.

I don't think you have

anything to be nervous about.

You're usually the most

talented artist i know.

Th ese new?

Yeah, some of them.

Jason, these are amazing.

What's this one for?

My boss is looking

for new ideas for comics.

It's kind of based on a story

that my dad used to tell me.

Anyways, it's a long story

So how is work going for you?

The layoff is treating

us pretty rough

But we're hanging in there.

If things get tight, don't

hesitate to ask for help.

Good to know.

I mean, just not from me.

Thank you.

It's so good to see you.

It's good seeing you too.

I'll see you later.

- Okay drive safe.

I'll see you later.

- Okay drive safe.

Will do. Bye.

So, i was thinking

that maybe we could

Get started a little early

Oh, boy you've got

the mom bug now.

Uh-Huh.

Uh-Huh?

- Yeah.

Okay, how early?

Well, if you

worked from home,

Then we could both

work after it's born,

And we could

start right away

So i'd be the

stay at home dad.

Yeah.

I'd come home from work and

the house would be clean,

And you'd have made dinner,

Wearing an apron

holding a baby

And some thigh highs?

Oh, no. Not holding

my kid. No.

Okay, i'll

talk to my boss.

I'll see what i can do.

Yeah.

Is this really

what you want?

Yeah, it is.

- Why did you ask him out?

You knew he was going to say

no because you're so ugly

Nobody's ever gonna

want to be with you.

you're never going to have

a serious relationship,

And then you're gonna die...

alone.

What do you

want, wormwood?

Fear.

I want to commend you on

doing such an outstanding job

With the male's mind.

Oh, i know who

we're talking about.

I've had a good

time with him.

And i am promoting you

over the entire house.

Now, i want you to assemble

a small team to gather

Information, then you'll

receive further instructions.

Why is any kind of

recon necessary--

Just do it.

Look, wormwood, just

let me in the house.

I can penetrate much--

Shut up!

You do not question me!

If it weren't for me, you

would still be working below

The surface, and i can send

you back there instantly

Fear, you are not

indispensable.

Now, assemble your team.

So what is the verdict?

So what is the verdict?

Is this all you ever

want to talk about?

Yeah.

Yeah.

There is more to

life than children.

Not after you have them.

What is it that scares you?

The whole human coming out

of a human concept

Is pretty creepy

Yes, it is.

Yes, it is very gross.

Stop stalling, tell me.

Tell me what is it

that scares you?

I guess it's the

permanence of it.

I mean, once that thing pops

out, there's no going back.

Do you consider your

marriage permanent?

Absolutely

Okay, so what is it about

that life commitment that

You have no qualms about?

Because i want

jessica to be happy

So now all you need

to do is ask yourself,

Will jessica be more

fulfilled as a mom?

That's checkmate, by the way

I don't know if

you noticed that.

Can i help you?

Yes, i need in to see mr.

Phillips.

Okay, do you

have an appointment?

No, but this is urgent.

I'm sorry, mr. Phillips

doesn't take walk-Ins.

You'll have to make

an appointment.

But this is

very important.

Is there a problem here?

Yes, this lady won't

let me see mr. Phillips.

Mr. Phillips doesn't take

walk-Ins, sir. I'm sorry

This is ridiculous.

Will you please

shut that thing up!

Sir, you need

to calm down.

How can you tolerate this

in a place of business?

This is a place of

business, our business,

And we love babies

here, even crying ones.

What we don't tolerate is

people belittling

Our front desk staff.

Now why don't you get out of

here before i call security

Don't worry about it.

You guys are fine.

He's so beautiful.

Thanks.

What's his name?

Porter.

Porter. Hi, porter.

May i hold him?

Yeah.

Thank you.

Hi, porter.

Hello, big boy

What are you waiting for?

I'm just not

sure about this.

This was your idea.

You told jessica

you'd call your boss.

What if i stick

my neck out there

And it doesn't work.

Manning up is never easy

You just have to do it.

Look at me. Nothing comes

to the man who waits.

Make the call.

What have we here?

Just a little picnic.

You said you skipped lunch.

Yeah, i'm starving.
