The Back-up Plan
I can't believe
I didn't get a pedicure for this.
How embarrassing. Look at that.
If I were with a real guy doing this,
I would've gotten a pedicure.
And a wax.
Oh, shit, that one's worse.
-Sorry I didn't get a pedicure.
-What?
My toes.
-l'm sorry.
-l'm not looking at your toes.
-l'm looking at your cervix.
-Right.
Now I kind of wish
you were looking at my toes.
-All done.
-That's it?
We'll elevate your legs for
First time l hear that ticking clock
and l'm not freaking out.
-Good. Just relax.
-l can't. l'm totally freaking out.
Come on.
Everything's gonna be great.
I have a feeling that you and...
...CRM-1 014 are gonna
make beautiful babies together.
Yeah. Thank you.
Oh, God, l hope this works.
I've wanted this for so long.
Maybe this isn't how
I pictured it exactly.
Thought I'd have
a little more support.
-No! You don't want kids. Trust me.
-Easy for you to say. You have four.
-And it's awful. They've ruined my life!
-Hi, munchkins.
What? No! Go away!
Have you seen my vagina?
I mean, have you?
Because I would show it to you.
I will show it to you just to prove...
...that you don't want to have kids.
I will show you my vagina.
I don't want to see that.
I want a baby.
I think you're tired of being alone.
Haven't met the right guy.
Not about a guy. l've dated hundreds
of guys over the past five years.
Not one of them's close
to being the one.
It's just not happening for me.
-Yeah, but doesn't mean that it won't.
-Doesn't mean that it will.
Is that my chicken?
What are you doing?
Give it back!
That is your dinner, not a toy!
I hate them. Do you smell pee?
So, l had to figure it out on my own.
I examined every possibility and
arrived at the most logical conclusion.
Will you be my baby-daddy?
What? No, l can't be the father.
Are you out of your mind?
What are you talking--?
No. I am in my sexual prime.
I have more women to bed before I do
something as idiotic as having a baby.
Clive, you're my friend.
Don't you want to help me?
We don't have to have sex.
You don't have to be involved at all.
All right? Just give me your sperm.
Okay. Okay,
you're feeling lonely, right?
Maybe a little dead down there.
I get it, I get it. Been a long time
since you've had, you know.
Just shut up, okay?
-Just forget it. Forget the whole thing!
-What?
Well, that was a bust.
So I took life by the horns...
...and I did what l had to do.
Yeah.
It's gonna be okay.
I have a plan.
Ding.
-You don't have to walk like that.
-What? Oh, okay.
By the way, l know an excellent
support group for single moms...
-...if you're interested.
-Great. Great.
Maybe we should hug. We might
have just made a baby together.
-Good luck.
-Okay. All right.
Hi.
-Hi.
-Hi.
-Hi!
-Get away from me!
Taxi!
Hallelujah!
Excuse me. This is my cab.
-What, you own it?
-No, but I'm about to rent it.
If someone hails a cab and it pulls up,
you can't jump in and say it's yours.
-l didn't see you.
-l saw you see me.
Sir. Sir, excuse me.
Who saw you first?
Look, maybe you're not
from around here, but there's a code.
-Certain rules that we try to follow.
-Fine! Forget it. I'll get out.
You're not right, but l'm in
a terrific mood and you're ruining it.
No, I'll get out.
-Now what?
-l don't know. You tell me.
-Hey, hey!
-Where's he going? Come back!
Well, that was stupid.
Why'd you get out, you stupid-head?
You said you were in a great mood
and l was ruining it. l felt bad.
I'm sorry,
did you just call me a stupid-head?
How's your great mood now?
Please, stop talking to me.
So why are you in
