Crying isn't going to help.
I just can't help it.
Aw, Dory...
I didn't want to say anything
until I was sure, but I've known.
No mistake possible?
No.
How far?
Two months almost.
You, uh... You didn't give the doctor
your right name, did you?
No.
He knew I was lying.
It was awful.
You shouldn't have gone alone.
I should have gone with you.
What are we gonna do?
Well...
I know you want me to say
we'll get married right away but...
Don't want to get out of it, do you?
Don't even think that.
I love you.
Oh, I love you.
I want to marry you, more than
anything else in the world, only your...
- He doesn't matter.
- He's your father. He does.
What he thinks is important.
All I know is we don't have any choice.
Look, honey...
I know this is a shock,
but it isn't the end of the world.
Sure, it's a problem,
but a thing like this can change, Dory.
- No.
- There's always a chance. You know that.
I suppose so.
Dory...
Come on. Come on.
That's better.
Come on, honey. We'd better go.
My mother will be home soon.
- OK?
- OK.
Hm?
I don't feel good.
- I can't even eat.
- Well, that's natural.
I know, but the girls in the sorority house
are gonna start asking questions.
Well, I know what we can do
about that, Dory.
A friend of mine - Hermy Gosset.
Remember him?
One of his cousins owns a pharmacy.
Maybe he'd give me something
to make you feel better.
- You won't say anything, will you?
- No, of course not.
Oh, Dory...
Come on, will ya stop worrying?
Everything's going to be all right.
OK.
Come on, honey. We'd better go.
Be careful you don't
leave anything around.
- It's not right.
- What?
For anyone to love somebody
as much as I love you.
That makes us even.
Then we haven't got anything
to worry about. Haven't you heard?
Love conquers all.
- Hello, son.
- Hi, Mother.
- Had your dinner?
- No. I'm not hungry.
- There's a sandwich in the kitchen.
- I don't feel like anything.
- You've gotta eat something.
- Why?
- Aren't you feeling well?
- Mother, will ya, please?
There's something wrong.
You can't fool me. I know you too well.
Mother, please! Will ya?
It's just that I have to get something
special ready for a speech tomorrow.
I haven't much time to do it in.
- You work too hard. Play more.
- I haven't any time.
A person's gotta relax sometime.
Look, Mother, I'm 25 years old.
Where am I? No place.
I don't wanna wind up like Dad,
with holes in my shoes.
You're not like him. Not at all.
You'll see.
Anything you decide to do, you'll do it.
- I know.
- Sure, I'm a genius.
I think so.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Any change?
Nope.
Well, I think we ought to decide
and set a date.
You're not mad, are you?
No. Of course not.
I know it's not the way we planned
but... it'll be all right.
Sure. It'll be great.
- I'll quit school, get a job.
- No! No, you won't have to.
You'll get more money from the
government because you have a wife.
$105 a month.
Soda jerk. How does that sound?
I had such plans.
Everybody expected so much of me.
It's all my fault.
It's always the girl's fault.
Maybe there is a way.
We could call your father...
No!
tell him we did a terrible thing.
It won't do any good!
I know him.
I know the way he feels about me.
- But, Dory, all we have to...
- No!
We'll get along.
- Prove to him that we don't need him.
- I'm only...
I don't even want him!
Look, for the first time in my life
I feel like me.
