Return to Zero Page #2
out a way to get rid of him.
You know, Ned is fully vested.
We don't have the authority.
Takes another surgeon
to do that.
It turns out Ned's son
is a surgeon, just like dad.
And he's interested.
You know, it's a beautiful thing
When a son wants to follow
in his father's footsteps.
Are you kidding me?
Oh, that.
I don't know what that is.
It's his head.
No... Oh!
Oh!
Oh, no! Rewind!
Rewind it! Rewind it!
I want to see that again.
What was that?
I don't know.
I think he was winking.
Oh, he's so ugly.
Aww, he's...
Don't say that!
He can hear you!
He can hear your voice.
He knows your voice.
He knows my voice?
Did you read any of the books
I gave you?
Do you listen to anything I say?
You gave me books.
Hey, read him a book right now.
Look it up.
Uh, okay.
The choices are "Anna Karenina,"
"Guns, germs, and steel,"
oh, "the human stain,"
Or "but not the hippopotamus"
by Sandra Boynton.
I think this is best.
"Guns, germs, and steel."
"A hog and a frog
cavort in the bog,
But not the hippopotamus."
See?
Did you do that?
Was that a trick?
Yeah, I did that.
That foot.
Let's see.
"A cat and two rats
were trying on hats,
But not the hippopotamus."
Oh, my god.
Ow!
Don't tell your mother,
but one day, when you're older,
You and I are gonna
build a sailboat.
And I'm gonna take you
to my favorite spot,
how to sail.
Okay?
Knock twice if...
I think we may have
The next America's cup captain
right here.
Okay, well, wait.
Let me help you.
No, I got it.
Yeah.
You're only nine months
pregnant, Maggie.
God forbid
you let anybody help you.
Well, you are, too.
No, I'm not.
I'm seven months, thanks.
Ohh.
Oh,
this turned out beautifully.
Don't break your arm
Patting yourself on the back.
I haven't been able to reach
my back in a month, thanks.
You okay?
Yeah, it's nothing.
What is it?
Are you going into labor?
No, ohh.
I have got to go
to the bathroom.
might be happening.
It rhymes with "maybe."
What you up to?
Nothing, Trish.
Quite obviously nothing.
What are you up to?
pregnant women that question.
That was a joke.
False alarm.
Ah, all right.
Well, I better get home
Before my boys
burn the house down.
Maggie, you okay?
Yeah.
Oh, I almost forgot.
There's a wait list
For infant day care at the club,
So you'll want to
take care of that, okay?
I can't right now.
And I know you got a lot
But Mrs. Dufrense just became the
head of admissions at Roosevelt,
And you're gonna need her to get
that little guy into Pre-K.
