LILY SNYDER AND SIMON FRASIER CALLING FROM A PAY PHONE

> >> Lily: I'm outside now. Please tell me. Please tell me that we have a bad connection. Katie's what?
> >> Simon: She's pregnant, Lily.
> >> Lily: No. No.
> >> Simon: Look, I can't believe it myself.
> >> Lily: This isn't happening. This is not -- she's lying.
> >> Simon: I wish. I wish. Look, I'm sorry, Lily. I am so sorry.
> >> Lily: You were only with her that one night.
> >> Simon: Yes, yes, one night. I swear. One night, after a few too many. Once is all it took.

LILY SNYDER AND SIMON FRASIER CALLING FROM A PAY PHONE

> >> Simon: I know what must be going through your mind.
> >> Lily: You have no idea.
> >> Simon: Look, Lily, I was a drunken idiot that night. And if I could go back and change everything, you know I would.
> >> Lily: Are you sure that it's yours?
> >> Simon: Yes. Yes, Katie's only ever been with me. Look, I was gonna tell her that it was over, that I wanted to be with you, no matter what the risk. And before I could even get a word out of my mouth --
> >> Lily: Oh, that's Katie. You know, she's got impeccable timing.
> >> Simon: Lily --
> >> Lily: She tried to get her claws into Holden for months. She left us stranded on that island, so she could get what she wants. She lied. She lied to get a job. She lied about being stalked.
> >> Simon: Wait, wait, wait, what are you insinuating?
> >> Lily: I'm not "insinuating" anything. I'm just reminding you you're married to a consummate liar. There's no baby, Simon.

Scene 3:
Location: Emma Snyder's Farm near Luther's Corners
Scene: Outside the Farmhouse

LILY SNYDER AND SIMON FRASIER CALLING FROM A PAY PHONE

> >> Lily: Has Katie been sick, nauseous?
> >> Simon: Yes, today.
> >> Lily: Today? Was that before or after she told you?
> >> Simon: After. After.
> >> Lily: Of course, because she wants her story to look good. Has she -- has she even gained an ounce? Is she as bouncy as a golden retriever?
> >> Simon: She looks the same to me, yes.
> >> Lily: She's into, what, the end of her first trimester. She hasn't bothered to do the math up until this point? She's been pregnant for over two months, and she didn't even realize it?
> >> Simon: Wait, wait, wait. Lily, isn't every pregnancy different?
> >> Lily: Did she show you the results of the home pregnancy test?
> >> Simon: No, no.
> >> Lily: Proof from a doctor?
> >> Simon: No.
> >> Lily: Does she even have a doctor?
> >> Simon: She went and saw one, yes. Someone in Peoria.
> >> Lily: I'm sorry. I don't mean to grill you because I don't think you're the one that's lying. I'm just -- I made a decision about my life, to be with you, to leave the country to be with you. I'm minutes away from asking my husband for a divorce.
> >> Simon: Look, just Stop. Stop. Okay, look, I can't stand this. All I can say is I'm sorry, and I know that it accomplishes nothing.
> >> Lily: I don't want apologies. I want you. I want this to be a nightmare. And I want the name of Katie's doctor.
> >> Simon: I don't have it.
> >> Lily: Well, then, ask her for it.
> >> Simon: I did. I did. She'd forgotten it. She said she only saw the guy once.
> >> Lily: Well, then, ask her again.
> >> Simon: Lily, Katie's been through a lot with her family, and if she is telling the truth, she's got to be a little scared.
> >> Lily: Don't be so blind, Simon. Katie is not the innocent girl that she wants you to believe that she is. She came to me and she said she would do anything -- anything to hold on to you. And she's done it.
> >> Simon: Lily, she knows that I'm in love with you.
> >> Lily: Does she know that you were asking her for a divorce today?
> >> Simon: No, she didn't. How could she? She had no idea.
> >> Lily: Do not underestimate Katie Peretti.
> >> Simon: Listen, if she's lying, I'll deal with her. But if she is telling the truth, I will handle my responsibility.
> >> Lily: How did this happen to us?
> >> Simon: I want to see you, Lily. I have -- I have to see you.
> >> Lily: No. No, you can't do that. Nothing's changed. The I.N.S. is still following --
> >> Simon: Look, I don't care. I don't care about the I.N.S. I'm willing to chance it. Please, just let me come over and see you now.

LUKE GRIMALDI AND LILY SNYDER

> >> Luke: Mommy? Mommy?
> >> Lily: I'll be there. I've got to go.
> >> Simon: Look, okay, okay, I'll call you back. Please, let me call you back.
> >> Lily: No, there's nothing to talk about until we have real answers. So -- I've got to go.
[Lily hangs up]
> >> Simon: Lily?
[Dial tone.]
> >> Simon: Lily!

Scene 4:
Location: Burt's Garage

MRS KATIE FRASIER AND SIMON FRASIER

> >> Katie: Simon? Simon, are you here?
[When Katie hears Simon coming, she runs to the bathroom]
> >> Simon: Katie! Katie? Katie.
> >> Katie: Wait. Just a second.
> >> Simon: I think I've waited long enough. It's about this "pregnancy."
[Katie coughing.]
> >> Katie: I'll just be out in just a second.
> >> Simon: Oh, no.
> >> Katie: I'm sorry about that. It's just that most women usually have morning sickness in the morning. Mine lasts all day long. Bottoms up.
[Katie gargling mouthwash.]

Scene 5:
Location: Burt's Garage

SIMON FRASIER AND MRS KATIE FRASIER

> >> Simon: So, what's up?
> >> Katie: My weight. Am I already getting too fat, Simon? Tell me the truth.
> >> Simon: Please. Please. You look remarkably well.
> >> Katie: You know, pregnant women are supposed to have this glow. At least that's what the book said.
> >> Simon: What book?
> >> Katie: Oh, the one that I got from Margo. I went to see her today after > our talk.
> >> Simon: Wait, wait, wait. You told her?
> >> Katie: She's my sister.
> >> Simon: Oh, great. Oh, that's -- that's good news. She must really love me now.
> >> Katie: Well, to tell you the truth, it didn't go great. First, she shoves these books at me, and then she starts telling me how irresponsible I am, and how stupid this is, and how wrong it is to think that I could bring a life into the world.
> >> Simon: Maybe you just misunderstand her, that's all.
> >> Katie: Oh, fine! Take her side. I'm sorry, I'm only the one who has a child in my belly.
> >> Simon: It's okay.
> >> Katie: I'm sorry. I just have all these mood swings. I don't know what's gotten into me. Oh, well, actually I do. We're having a baby, Simon. Can you believe it?
> >> Simon: Oh, it's incredible.
> >> Katie: Well, you know, I mean, it's -- it's going to take some time to get used to. Of course, we're going to be somebody's parents, you know. But don't take too long, you know, we never know what this is going to bring for us.
> >> Simon: Yeah, yeah.
> >> Katie: I told Margo how great you're being and how supportive you're going to be and how you said you'd stand by me and everything. And I wouldn't want to lie to her.
> >> Simon: No, no. Who would? She carries a gun. Look, Katie, there is just one thing I think you and I -- we should do together immediately.
> >> Katie: What's that?
> >> Simon: See a doctor.
> >> Katie: Look, I have told you and I have told Margo that I've already been seen a doctor. I passed all the tests with flying colors. I'm healthy.
> >> Simon: Yes, healthy, I can see that. And that's good. That's very good news. But there's just something that we should do. We should see this doctor because I have a few questions I need to ask myself.
> >> Katie: All right. We'll do that. See? You're acting like a daddy already. Oh, if it's your night to cook, could you grab a pizza? I would kill for a pizza with extra cheese, pepperoni and anchovies on one half, and ham and pineapple on the other.
> >> Simon: Are you serious?
[In the meantime, Katie is pigging out on junk food]
> >> Katie: I have just had these insane cravings all day long. Guess we better get used to it, huh? Oh, and you should probably get yourself something, too.
> >> Simon: Fine.

MRS KATIE FRASIER ALONE

> >> Katie: Henry! Not again. Hey, where are you? I need that doctor, and I need him fast!

Scene 6:
Location: Lily Walsh Snyder Mansion

SIMON FRASIER AND LILY SNYDER

> >> Simon: Wait. Before you say anything, I know I shouldn't be here. But I had to see you. < br> > >> Lily: If Halliwell finds you here --
> >> Simon: Look, I don't care about the I.N.S., or being deported. I don't care about anything except you. So I just have to know -- what do we do now?
