What did you feed her?

I'm so so sorry

about your dog.

I just scheduled a full body

scan for MacArthur on Monday.

I have the day off Monday

but I'll take her Tuesday.

You'll take her Monday.

I asked for this time

off two months ago.

It's just one day.

I promised my boyfriend

we'd go camping

for his 25th birthday.

It's his 25th birthday?

Yeah, it is.

God, I had no idea.

I'm sorry. Why don't you

take the whole week off?

Really?

No!

Okay, no problem.

Come on, things

can't be that bad.

Okay. Let's see what I have

to look forward to in life.

Washing my boss's dog.

Blow-drying my boss's job.

Uh-mm.

Taking my boss's

dog for a CAT scan.

I'm officially

a pathetic loser.

Well, at least we still

have Skittles and cigarettes.

Maybe you and Miles

can reschedule the weekend.

Oh, yeah. I'll see if Miles

can reschedule his birthday.

No, maybe Jerry's

onto something.

Who needs a significant other

when you're dating your own dog?

Jerry's repulsive. Have you

smelled his breath lately?

He's lucky he can get

a dog to date him.

You know, it's one thing if Jerry is an

undersexed jerk who takes no joy in life

But why does he have to make the

rest of us that way? I hate him!

In my office. Now!

You've got some pretty strong

opinions about my personal choices.

You find my relationship

with MacArthur

something to deride?

Not at all. I respect

your devotion to animals.

You're involvement

with PETA is inspiring.

Don't bullshit me.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean it.

It was childish

and it won't happen again.

If you hate me so much,

I don't really think it's healthy

for you to continue working with me.

But, please.

You can't do this.

Watch me.

But I need this job.

Here I go.

I support my sister.

You're fired.

But I'm...

You're what? You're?

I'm pregnant.

Pregnant?

Yes, pregnant.

Totally pregnant.

The doctor says the chemicals

or hormones or whatever...

are messing up my system and you can't

take anything I say too seriously.

Except for when I say I'm

pregnant because, I am.

Oh, God.

When are you due?

Octember.

I mean, October.

October what?

Uh, probably the 6th.

Could be the 7th,

could be the 8th. But fingers

are crossed for the 6th

by then I'll just want

this thing out of me.

You're almost four

months pregnant?

Yeah.

Isn't that crazy?

Feels like yesterday I wasn't.

But I was because I'm four months

The legal department

is backing your story

about not being able

to fire a pregnant woman

no matter how much

she might deserve it.

So get back to work.

Thank you

so much, Jerry.

I really appreciate it.

Thank you. From both of us.

Congratulations on the baby. The

entire legal department is thrilled.
