Framed By My Fiance

So, trivia tonight, or are you

still bogged down by boards?

Oh, I am way behind on that.

(LAUGHS)

But I need an outlet for

all this useless information

I have stored upstairs, and

I like winning free appetizers.

I know you do.

(PHONE RINGING)

Oh, it's Daniel.

It's always Daniel.

Hey, you.

Hey! So, I made reservations

for an early dinner tonight.

Oh, babe, I just made plans

to do trivia with Rosa.

Babe, come on.

I had to use up a favor

to get the reservation.

Well, she has her heart

set on it.

Well, tell Rosa

that I have a coupon

for a free appetizer

she can have.

I could hear that.

How did he know?

How did you know?

Every time you have me

and Jenny over for dinner,

you serve chicken wings

and potato skins.

Are you complaining?

Absolutely not.

Uh, go have fun.

We'll do it next week.

Are you sure?

All right, I'm in.

I'll come right home after

work and pick you up.

And dress fancy.

Dress fancy?

Ooh, la, la.

Ooh, la, la.

This is really happening.

It's actually happening.

All these years,

all those treatments,

all those mis...

I know.

We made it

to the second trimester.

We're going to have a baby!

Oh my God!

So, this sweetest

little boy, Jeremy,

he's the one that has the, um,

the thing with his hair.

Cowlick, right.

Yes. Yes.

Um, he goes to me today,

he says, "Nurse Jenny,

you are the best nurse

in the whole world."

Aww.

Wait. No, wait.

So then I said to him,

"Jeremy, even though

I'm the one who gives

you your shots?"

And so he thinks about it

for a moment and he goes,

"Sometimes you're the world's

second best nurse."

You should get it made up

on a t-shirt:

"World's second best nurse".

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Enjoy.

What are we celebrating?

Certainly not me being the

world's second best nurse.

So, I got a call today

from Harold Barnes.

He's a friend who works

for the Governor,

and he asked me come down

to his office,

said that he had something

he wanted to discuss with me.

And?

And I sit down, very nice

leather couch, by the way.

Oh, oh, come on, tell me!

What?

So Harold tells me that

with the sudden retirement

of Judge Reynolds,

the Governor asked him

to make up a short list of names

to replace Reynolds

on the bench.

And...

My name is at

the top of the list.

Really?

That's fantastic.

It's not 100 percent guaranteed.

They still need to do

the vetting process.

So, I just need to keep

my nose clean

for the next month

or two, but...

That's exactly what you wanted.

I know. First I was the

youngest partner at the firm,

and now I'll be the youngest

judge in the state.

And who knows how far

I can go with enough time.

How... how far do you

want to go?

Congress?

Governor?

Oh, okay, big shot.

Let's toast.

To Governor Daniel Hackett.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

You're lying.

You're up to something.

No, I'm not.

Okay. This has been

my little secret up until now,

but you always do

that little nervous

tapping thing when you're lying.

I'm so sorry, sir.

This is the glass

for the young lady.

What?

(GASPS)

So, if I'm going to make

it big in politics,

I'm gonna need a

smiling wife by my side.

Daniel...

(GIGGLES)

It's beautiful.

Jenny Fischer...

Will you marry me?

Yes.

Yes, yes, yes!

(GASPS)

Hey.

Hey.

Sorry, I'm late.

It's all right.

I stopped by the club.

Judge Parker says hi.

Hmm.

Where's my ice cream?

Oh.

May, I'm sorry.

I texted you.

Rocky Road ice cream.

I'm sorry, I forgot.

Michael, I need

my ice cream, please.

Can I get it in the...

Unh-unh.

Don't be too long.

Be right back.

I love it.
