| B: | I'm sorry I haven't called or anything, but right after you decided you wanted a break, I was called up north to put out some major forest fires! I was in the middle of nowhere, working day and night, trying to prevent the blaze from spreading! It was pretty intense. |
| |
| A: | Oh, honey, I'm glad you're okay! But I have some exciting news... I think I'm pregnant! |
| |
| B: | Really? Wow, that's amazing! This is great news! I've always wanted to be a father! We'll go to the doctor first thing in the morning! |
| |
| C: | We have your test results back and, indeed, you are pregnant. Let's see here... everything seems to be in order. Your approximate due date is October twenty-seventh two thousand and nine, so that means that the baby was conceived on February third, two thousand and nine. |
| |
| B: | Are you sure? Are these things accurate? |
| |
| C: | Well, yes sir, they are. |
| |
| A: | What's wrong? Why are you asking these questions? |
| |
| B: | This baby isn't mine! I was away the first week of February at a training seminar! |
| |
| A: | I... I... no, it can't be... |
