The Way of the Gun

---

Steff, please! You're still not

cut out to be a surrogate mother.

Look, there's a girl comes in here,

due any day, getting paid a million.

Sounds like a lot? Wrong.

She comes in for treatment three times

before the damn embryo takes.

Turns out the couple

is perfectly healthy.

I guess the wife just couldn't be

bothered to carry her own child.

They tell the girl what to eat, when

to go out, bodyguards watch her.

Of course it 's fishy. It 's what I'm

And in a few days, this baby

will be a part of your past.

And for you to leave

and not know it 's secure....

I would never ask you to trust me.

It 's the cry of a guilty soul.

But trust life. Always trust life.

If you're careful enough to listen,

life does take care.

You're gonna be a good father.

She's gonna be a good

mother. You'll see.

As soon as she lays eyes on him,

nature will take over. I know it.

I hope to God you're right, Robin.
