Samantha

runs her fingers through her hair, trembling Okay, okay, I need to think. Think, Samantha, think! This doesn't make any sense. How can I be holding a baby if I'm not pregnant? Maybe... maybe they mixed up the patients or something?
Mudge
no, the doctor came to our house twice this week. Once for the regular check in and again for the actual delivery. The doctor even called to tell you that you were going into labor early.

starts pacing back and forth No, no, no... this can't be real. This has to be some kind of mistake. I mean, how can they get something so basic as whether or not I'm pregnant wrong? I'm gonna call the hospital right now and find out what the hell is going on.
Mudge
good luck. My phone is dead and there is no other payphone around. The only thing I can do is watch as my best friend loses her mind.
