The Brothers Solomon Page #2

Synopsis: John and Dean Solomon may have Ph.D.s, but they're socially inept after their widowed father home-schooled them in Antarctica. When their beloved dad falls into a coma, they hatch a plan to revive him using a positive emotional shock - giving him a grandchild. They find a surrogate mom through Craig's list - she's Janine, a penniless local musician, with a large, intimidating boyfriend, James. The pregnancy gives the Solomons nine months to learn to be parents. In a side story, John pursues Tara, a neighbor who takes care of their dad when John and Dean are out; but she has no interest in John. Can the boys keep Janine and James happy, keep dad alive, and learn to be dads?

Well, maybe.

Wait. How are we supposed to

make a baby?

I mean, we don't have the best of luck

with women, John.

Dean, I know that.

But before, we were trying

to enter women for ourselves.

This time,

we'd be entering women for Dad.

Hands in.

"Make a baby for Dad" on three.

One, two, three.

Make a baby for Dad!

You have got a nice face.

Thank you.

- Sure makes up for that body.

- What?

No. No, no, no.

I'm saying that your face...

...it makes up for your body.

Thank you.

Hey, you've got something right...

Right... No. You know what?

Chicken.

I gotta be honest, Erica.

I'm really feeling a connection here.

I mean, you're beautiful,

impeccable dresser...

...great personality, nice hair, fat,

great smile, smell good...

Have you ever heard of the phrase

"More cushion for the pushin"'?

Yeah, why?

Because you got it, lady.

Here, lift up your napkin for a sec.

Yep, you've got it.

There it is. There it is.

Are you ovulating right now?

This is our first date

and that's none of your business.

I'm about to make it my business.

Michelle.

Make me the happiest man

in the world...

...and marry me.

Are you joking?

I know. Isn't it great?

No.

What do you say we get out of here,

and I go put a baby in you?

Well, I don't...

No strings attached.

You have no idea how long I've been

wanting to have a baby like this.

I mean, this is like

a dream come true.

For me too.

A no-strings-attached situation

in which I can carry a baby to term...

...have it and then give it

to two wonderful people.

- It's great.

- Awesome!

You know what? I'm gonna deliver

this baby to you on a silver platter.

One hundred percent...

So she got hit by a bus, huh?

Poor girl.

Yeah, the bus took

a pretty serious hit too.

I mean, she was a large girl.

Comfortably in the 200s.

Oh, my God. Sounds horrible.

Yeah.

So how was your date?

Well...

...wasn't exactly an A-plus.

More like an A.

But don't worry.

I'm not giving up just yet.

Still a lot more fight

left in this old bulldog.

God, this thing is gonna be

harder than we thought.

Come on, Dean.

Don't think like that.

I mean, yeah, we're gonna have to

make some sacrifices.

But think about all the sacrifices

that Dad made for us.

Remember that Christmas

Mom died?

Dad told us we could have

anything we wanted.

Where does Santa live?

He lives at the North Pole.

I wanna live at the North Pole.

Me too.

And what did Dad do?

He took us to the North Pole

and raised us there.

And when we were teenagers

and needed a date for prom?

Dad went out searching for the most

beautiful women within 100 miles.

He almost died.

But the women he found!

Beautiful.

Oh, Qiqirn.
