The Secret Life of American Teenager 123
Ashley: Can we wake her up? I mean, how can she be sleeping like this?
Anne: She needs her rest.
Ashley: I need the rest.
George: We could all use the rest. You wanna go home, take a nap, come back?
Anne: While I'm at it, why don't I go get a SPA treatment too?
George: Or maybe you could get an epidural and make this a whole lot easier on Ashley and me. Is that your boyfriend?
Ashley: You said no cell phones.
Anne: I have it on silent. I'll be right back.
George: This were 50 years ago, I'd be in a nearby bar having a drink and waiting for a phone call.
Ashley: If this was 50 years ago, Amy would be in a home and we'd be saying she was at special music college in the midwest.
George: We would have made your mom wear a pillow for nine months. Then she would have given birth suddenly when we were on vacation in the midwest. Oh, those were the good old days.
Ashley: The era of shame. Too bad we missed that one, huh?
Ben: I think she's just out of it, and I think I've proven that I shouldn't be here for the actual birth. Uh, but if either one of you want my video camera...Well, don't you think that the baby will wanna see himself being born when he's older?
Ashley: As well as his mother giving birth to him?
Amy: Ashley can do it. Please, Ashley.
Ashley: Oh, great, now she's awake. Amy, I do not care to see you that up close and personal. I do not want to see the baby actually being born. No one does. It's a conspiracy by video-camera manufacturers. No one really wants to see the baby on camera until it's clean and smiling, about three years from now.
Amy: Ha-ha. You're funny. Just like dad.
Ashley: God, when is this all gonna stop? Every minute we're in here, I'm another year away from having sex.
Doctor: Hey, girl, did you get a little nap?
George: Should we step out?
Doctor: Yes, you might wanna step out. We'll let you know when you can step back in. It won't be much longer. The contractions are getting closer together.
Amy: Yeah, I think he might wanna stay a little longer. I think I might want him to stay a little longer.
Anne: Don't be scared, Amy. Everything's gonna be fine.
Doctor: Let's get some music going, get relaxed, let nature take its course. This is a natural process.
Amy: Then why do I have a big needle in my spine?
Anne: Because sometimes nature sucks.
Amy: Mom, don't make me laugh. Um, seriously though, how much is it gonna hurt?
Doctor: Don't think about that.
Amy: What am I supposed to think about?
Anne: Think about your baby, think about your son. I think he's ready. From this point on, it's all about him.
Madison: It would only take 10 minutes. Ten minutes. I can't stay awake any longer. I need coffee.
Lauren: Can't you stay awake on adrenaline? Our best friend is having a baby.
Madison: My adrenaline ran out hours ago.
Lauren: You're 15. You can stay up all night. This would not be the first time you've stayed up all night. We stayed awake all night the night we found out Amy was pregnant. So I think we can stay up all night the night she has the baby.
Adrain: Hold it. What happened? Did she have the baby?
Alice: We're just going to get coffee. You want anything?
Madison: Hello? No one is going to get anyone to bring them back coffee, either we all go or we all stay.
Tom: Wait, I'll go.
Tammy: Maybe we should just get a hotel room, Tom, and get some sleep.
Tom: If you want, yeah.
Grace: I don't think so, not until you're married.
Tammy: Your sister is such a buzz kill, no one said anything about having sex. I just want some sleep.
Adrain: Oh, that's nothing. I'm pretty sure they were making out before the baby shower.
Henry: You got served.
Alice: We have to get boyfriends.
Madison: I have a boyfriend.
Lauren: So I guess it's just you and me without boyfriends.
Alice: I'm getting Henry back. I was just trying to make him jealous.
Lauren: But I thought he wasn't...
Alice: We'll see about that.
Ben: Where is everybody?
Ricky: I just passed them. They're going to get coffee. She almost there? What does that mean, almost there?
Ben: I don't know, but I think that now she starts the pushing and shoving.
Ricky: What's the shoving part?
Ben: I don't know. Uh, but the doctor came in and she looks, ready to deliver a baby.
Ricky: Who's in there with Amy and the doctor?
Ben: Just her mom. You didn't wanna be in there with her, did you? When she has the baby?
Ricky: No, of course not.
Ben: Yeah, me neither.
Ricky: Then, what's the camera for?
Ben: Oh, jeez. Uh, where did I leave Ashley?
Ben: Oh. Hey, here, I forgot this. Uh, here's the zoom. It's just for her face, I just wanna see the look on her face.
Ashley: I'm not videotaping Amy's face or anything else for that matter.
Doctor: Ashley, Amy's asking for you. Oh, she wants you to bring the camera.
George: I reserve the right to edit that before you see it.
Ben: That's fine. I don't even need to see it. It's just for Amy and the baby, when he grows up.
George: You wanna call your mom or dad to get them down here?
Ricky: Should I do that? Am I supposed to do that? It seems if I'm old enough to be a father, I shouldn't call my mommy and daddy to come hold my hand.
George: All right, after the baby is born, you might wanna call them. I'm sure they're gonna wanna see him.
Ricky: Thanks for being nice to me. And...
George: Don't say it. It is what it is.
Ashley: I don't think anyone should see what's going on in there.
George: Is she okay?
Ashley: I don't know how she could be. She's too young to be having a baby.
George: Jeez, Ash, I just hope she can get through this.
Ricky: Is your dad coming down here? Put your head between your legs, you'll be okay.
Ben: I'm okay. Really, I'm fine. I'm not really squeamish. It's just I hate to hear Amy in pain. It's killing me.
Ricky: I just feel so guilty. I feel so damn guilty. I can't believe I did this.
Ben: Yeah, well, you did do this, but it is what it is. And who knows why but maybe it was just meant to happen. Although I don't think it's meant to happen again.
Ricky: Yeah, believe me, it's not gonna happen again. I'm thinking about getting fixed. I mean it. The state should make me get a vasectomy or something.
Ben: Ricky, you're 16. You're in high school. I mean, maybe one day you'd like to grow up and get married and have some more children.
Ricky: I don't think so, this is it for me. I don't even deserve to have this one. I don't deserve to have a baby with a girl this nice, with Amy. God, I can't believe I did something so stupid that's changed the lives of so many people. I hate myself.
Ben: Hey, you can't enter into the world of fatherhood with that kind of attitude. Your son's gonna need you.
Ricky: Why? He'll have you, and Amy, and her family.
Ben: You're his family, Ricky. You're his father.
Ricky: Whoever raises the child is his father, and I don't know if I can do it, or if I should do it. Maybe I should leave now before I mess up anything.
Ben: You're not gonna walk away from this. If you were gonna walk away from this, you would have walked long before now.
Ricky: How does this work? How do I act like a father when you're Amy's boyfriend? How are the three of us gonna raise a child together? This is just crazy, Ben.
Ben: I admit it's crazy, but we'll do the best we can. I mean, hey, who would have thought that six months ago, that we'd be friends? Yeah, we're friends, don't you think?
Ricky: Friends, I don't know. I don't think I've ever had a friend before, and I don't know why we'd be friends now. We've been forced to deal with each other because of this situation. We've got nothing in common other than Amy and the baby, and that doesn't seem it would make a good friendship. If anything, it seems we have no possibility of ever really being friends, Ben. Think about this, as the years go by, we're gonna always be arguing over the two things brought us together. Amy and the baby.
Ben: Yeah, but as the years go by, there are gonna be holidays and birthday parties and the first day of school and...
Ricky: Who does he get to spend Christmas Eve with? What about Christmas Day? And do I get him for part of his birthday by myself or do I have to go over to Amy's house if I want to see him on his birthday? Is she taking him to the first day of school? Is she gonna let me teach him to play baseball? Or is her dad? Your future father-in-law? And if he wants a pony for his birthday and I say no, are you gonna say yes and get it for him anyway? No, my friend, we've got a lifetime of arguing over Amy's son.
Ben: Did you talk to Amy about any of this, or...
Ricky: No, I didn't. Why?
Ben: Because I was just trying to cheer you up. Listen, we can figure out all this stuff later, or you and Amy can figure out all this stuff later. But for now, let's just take it one day at a time. And I think that today, we should be friends. Truce from all the battles yet to be had?
Ricky: I guess.
Ben: Come on. You can do better than that. You're gonna have to do better than that. We're both gonna have to do the best we can for who we are.
Ricky: And what does that mean?
Ben: It means that...I am the skinny-but-intelligent son of a wealthy man who nearly passes out at the thought of blood, and who has very minimal motor skills. And you are the troubled, narcissistic underachiever who can do just about anything, from throwing a ball to wrapping a meat basket. And together, we have the potential to make a pretty good dad.
Ricky: You're an idiot.
Ben: Yeah, well, that's what all my friends say.
Adrain: We all went out for coffee. Did we miss anything?
Ricky: I don't think so, no one's come to get me yet. Anyway, they said things slowed down again.
Adrain: I brought coffee for you, and Ben and, Amy's dad, and an extra one for anyone who wants it.
Ricky: That was nice of you. Thanks.
Adrain: How are you?
Ricky: I don't know. I guess I'm okay. I'm sure I'm doing better than Amy.
Adrain: Yeah, but she's strong. She'll be okay.
Ricky: So how's your brother? So it wasn't any good? I knew it wouldn't be.
Adrain: I didn't come down here because things with my brother didn't quite work out the way I hoped. I'm here because I just wanted to be here with everyone else. You know, I just feel like we're all kind of connected by this baby now, by your baby.
Ricky: Are you still jealous?
Adrain: Not tonight, but I'm sure I will be when I see you hold your son for the first time.
Ricky: Look, I'm sorry if I hurt you.
Adrain: You didn't hurt me. I really care about you, and I just came over here to tell you that, and to tell you that I know you're gonna be a good dad. And I know you, I know you better than anyone. And if you ever need me, call me. I'll be there for you, always.
Ricky: What if I don't need you, I just want you?
Adrain: Either way, I'll be there for you. And you be there for your son, because it's not fun growing up without a dad.
Grace: Hey, I'm just gonna go and say good night to Ricky.
Grace: I just wanna tell you know, I think we're gonna head out. It's late, and it could be a while, and we all just kind of realize maybe this is just for the family.
Ricky: I'll let Amy know.
Grace: I'll be praying for her, and for you. I've had a really great time getting to know you the past few months. I think a lot of you.
Ricky: I don't know why. I really didn't treat you right, and I think I know why.
Grace: You don't have to explain.
Ricky: I wanna explain. I'm attracted to you, and I respect you for living what you believe and not having sex before marriage. But Grace, I like having sex. I like having sex with Adrian. I'm sorry.
Grace: Don't apologize. I mean, I think there's a reason you like having sex with Adrian. I think you like Adrian. No, I think you're in love with Adrian. And I don't know how that will change as your relationship with Amy changes but, I think you're in love Adrian, whether you know it or not, and I know that Adrian's in love with you. I also just wanted to tell you that I'm thinking about getting back together with Jack, and I just wanted you to hear it from me.
Ricky: Well, as long as we're being honest here, I still think you could do better.
Grace: You just have to get to know Jack. He's really nice, and we have a lot in common, so I should go. He's waiting for me. Night. You're gonna be great dad. I can't wait to see you with the baby.
Leo: I'm really proud of you, you know that?
Ben: Proud of me for what? I've been completely irresponsible and relying on you for everything.
Leo: Well, that's what I'm proud of. You realized that, and you're only 15. Of course, your girlfriend's about to become a mother, so it's not a moment too soon.
Ben: I am really and truly in love with her, you know.
Leo: I know that, and that's why I've been so hard on you. If you were going through all this just because you liked her, I'd be worried about you. But you're like me, when you commit, you commit. You might not be a big guy, but you got a big heart. You get that from your mother.
Ben: My mother and my father.
Leo: I miss her.
Ben: Yeah, me too. As much as you loved her, dad, she loved you too, and I think she'd be okay if you dated again, if you wanted to.
Leo: I can't imagine it, going out with another woman. Your mom, she was the love of my life.
Ben: And you don't get lonely?
Leo: I get lonely, but I had such happiness for so long. I feel like a lucky man. Some people never have that kind of happiness. She was the one. And as young as you are, I don't know, I think Amy's your one. It's a lot to take on at 15, Ben. A girlfriend with a baby, but you'll do okay. It's not gonna be easy, but you'll do okay, and I'm there for you, son. I know it doesn't seem like it sometimes, but I'm there for you. Always.
Alice: How can making out be so good and sex so bad?
Henry: It wasn't so bad, was it?
Alice: Yeah, Henry, it was.
Henry: Well, maybe because it was our first time, and our second time.
Alice: Maybe because it was too soon, and we just thought there wasn't anything left but going straight to the finale. Maybe we needed to spend more time doing this, because this is actually better than any intercourse we ever had.
Henry: Oh, I hate that word. It's so unromantic. It sounds like health class, Alice.
Alice: Shut up and kiss me.
Tom: I can't believe you two made us go to the hospital for nothing.
Grace: You wanted to go, so did Tammy.
Tom: Yeah, to see the baby.
Grace: Well, we'll see the baby eventually. Do you mind if I talk to Jack?
Tom: Do I mind? Aren't I the one who got you together with Jack?
Grace: It was nice being with you again.
Jack: And it was nice being with you again.
Grace: Do you think we could be boyfriend and girlfriend again? I mean, a lot of stuff has happened since we broke up.
Jack: Yeah, and even before we broke up. Grace, I love you. I've always loved you, but
