Hi.
Alf! What have i told you about being inside the house When there are people here.
More than i really care to know.
Well, go on out to the garage, And don't come back until the workmen Have left for the day.
They've been here for weeks.
How long does it take to build a stupid baby nursery anyway? Twice as long as they tell you it's gonna take.
Why don't you come out with me? We can play pin the tailpipe back on the car.
It's not as bad as it sounds.
I'm sorry, i can't right now, alf.
Kate and i are gonna have our first lamaze class this afternoon.
What's a lamaze class? It's where expectant parents rehearse for the baby's birth.
Today we're gonna practice breathing.
Admit it, wilderness.
This baby's become an obsession with you.
Well, of course it's an obsession.
It's the miracle of life.
It's the marvel of creation, The mystery of being.
Congratulations.
You're giving birth to an episode of nova.
And then, the doctor put the ultrasound machine on my stomach, And we could see the baby's head, And we could see the baby's legs.
We even saw its heart beating.
Please, kate.
Some of us are eating here.
Since when have you been squeamish? Since kate started talking about that parasite That's growing and changing inside of her.
Speaking of parasites, alf, are you ready For your fifth helping of meat loaf? Don't mind if i do.
When the baby gets here, Are we gonna be able to tell it about alf? Well, we'll have to eventually.
You know, the funny thing about this baby is that It's going to be growing up with alf.
I mean, to the baby He won't be weird or anything.
He'll just be normal.
Don't mind me.
I love being discussed in the third person.
Sorry, alf.
Just don't let it happen again.
[Doorbell rings.]
I'll get it.
Hide him.
Oh, hi, raquel.
Hey, laverne.
We're sorry to disturb your dinner.
Oh, we're used to-- I mean, come on in.
Oh, and how's the little mommy-To-Be? Not so little.
She blocks the whole tv when she walks in front of it.
Well, you know the old adage, Pregnancy is nature's little way of saying Wear a tent.
I've heard that.
We'll only take a moment.
It's about the litwak's house.
Isn't it, laverne? What? Oh, right.
Yes, our house.
Yes.
Wh-What about your house, laverne? Well, we might want to sell it Someday, you know.
So, i was wondering, well, kate, Since you're in the actual field of real estate, What, um, your thought About that.
About what? Laverne.
Hmm? Kate could probably get a much better idea Of what your house is worth If you take her outside and go over there For at least That would help a lot.
Now? If you wouldn't mind.
You know, just in case we decide to sell it someday.
Well, all right, laverne.
If it's--If it's that important.
Take your time now.
Ladies, you know the old adage.
Appraise and haste, repent at leisure.
That one i hadn't heard.
I thought they'd never leave.
Well, whatever's up, raquel? [Chuckles.]
Laverne and i want to throw A surprise baby shower for kate.
That's very-- Here.
Nice saturday.
Of you.
A baby shower sounds like fun.
I could help.
That was the plan.
Now, we will bring everything But the refreshments, the decorations, The party favors, and the folding chairs.
Sounds fair.
Well, it's the least auntie raquel can do.
Well, i'll you get back to your dinner.
Meatloaf again, huh? We like it.
Well, to each is own.
Tootles.
What's a surprise baby shower? It's a big pain in the-- So, when's my shower? How did you know? Laverne cracked.
Well, at least pretend to be surprised, So you don't hurt auntie raquel's feelings.
If it's more convenient, I could stay out here, And you could just pitch the rest of my dinner into my mouth.
Just come back to the table, alf.
No thanks.
I've heard enough about the stepford baby.
[Laughing.]
Laverne.
Hmm? You're supposed to twist streamers When you hang them.
Oh, is that written somewhere? Well, it doesn't have to be written somewhere.
If everybody knows something, There's no need to write it.
Hazel herobut was right.
What? Nothing.
Nothing.
[Doorbell rings.]
Excuse me.
Lynn, hi.
Hi, come on in.
What a thoughtful present.
We can practice on this one.
I hope you don't mind.
The sitter came down with a serious case of concert tickets.
Oh, andrea, you brought the baby.
I suppose that's nice.
So, this is where they're gonna stash the bad seed.
I may throw up.
Which could only help this wallpaper.
[Rattles.]
[Imitating indian tribal chant.]
Women: surprise! Oh, great.
The incredible expanding woman is home.
Oh, what a wonderful surprise.
Oh, thank you, raquel, laverne.
How did you know it was our idea? Who else Could be so thoughtful? Oh, andrea, you brought little elliot.
Yeah.
I'm afraid it's past his naptime, though.
If there's somewhere i could just go lay him down.
We can christen the nursery.
Come on, i'll show you where it is.
Great.
[Lullaby playing.]
Oh, man.

You're heavier than you look.
I have big bones.
So, which side of the bed do you want? Alf, you can't live in my room.
What if aunt raquel and uncle trevor see you? Good point.
Let's get a place at the beach.
Alf, we can't be roommates.

I'll be the sloppy one.
Oh, it's so cute.
So, when are you going to break down And have one of your own? Oh, please.
I can't even grow plants.
[Laughs.]
I'm sorry to be a wet blanket, But i really do have a plane to catch.
Oh, honey, thank you so much For coming all this way.
I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
A 7 year old knows that you're supposed to Twist streamers when you hang them.
Well then, next time you want to throw a baby shower, Get a 7 year old to help you.
Don't think i won't.
You still owe me for that plastic stork.
Dad, why do they call these cold cuts? Oh, i don't know.
Because they're cold and They're cut, i guess.
Cold cuts.
Uh, i don't know.
Well, what would you call them if you heated them up? I don't know.
I don't know nothing.
[Knock on door.]
jake: yo.
Yeah.
Come on in.
Uh, hi, mr.
Tanner.
Hi, squirt.
Hi, jake.
Hello, jake.
What's up? Well Uh Something wrong? Not wrong exactly.
More like missing.

"B" word? What do you mean, the baby? Ah-Choo! See, that's why i can't live with you anymore.
I'm allergic to babies.
[Sighs.]
What do you mean you're allergic to babies? Somebody brought one to kate's shower And put it in the nursery.
Soon as i went near the kid, I nearly sneezed up a lung.
Ah-Choo! Well, you're sneezing now.
There's no baby here.
Well, all i have to do is think about babies And i sneeze.
Well, there you are, alf.
You're not allergic to babies.
The whole thing is psychosomatic.
Psychosomatic? What's that, a food processor at the bates motel? It means you may think that this baby is gonna take your place.
Don't try to analyze me, I'm too complex.
Well, i'm worried about you, alf.
Yeah.
Well, don't bother.
I'm no longer a concern of yours.
I'm history, Vapor, Yesterday's old, stinky, smelly garbage With maggots all over it.
You know, when i married kate, I loved her more than anything in the world.
And then we had lynn and brian, And i found out i love them just as much.
But that didn't mean that i loved kate any the less.
And then Well, maybe, uh, It's not exactly the same, But, you know, we love ya, pal.
We all do.
On whose behalf are you speaking? Well, on my own, of course, and Lynn's and brian's.
Yeah? And? And i'm sure kate, In her own special way In her own Particular way Her own unique way-- She loves you.
You mean that? No one, believe me No one could ever take your place.
But If you really think That you'd like to live over here Well--Well, this room and i Really aren't in sync, And there's no sink in this room.
But But what? But if i'm to stay at your house, I want to be important to you guys.
I want to be a part of things.
I want To name your baby.
Forget it.
Raquel: jake, are you in there? Hide! No kidding, willie.
Hello.
Willie? Oh, hello, raquel.
What are you doing here? Oh, just looking for our cat.
Well, when you're through in here, Would you please put the furniture back the way you found it? Have a nice day.
Let's go home and burp the baby.
No, the baby's not even born yet.
Then let's just go home and burp.
"We will have a new baby soon Who will need that little bed, said papa bear.
" "A new baby? Asked small bear.
"He hadn't noticed that mama bear had grown very round lately, "Although he had noticed It was harder and harder to sit on her lap.
" Can i sit on your lap? I'd rather you didn't.
Fine.
Mom, dad's looking for you.
Oh.
He can't find his dental floss.
Tell him to look in the toilet tank.
Don't ask.
Alf Isn't this book a little young for you? I know that.
You know that.
Apparently no one's told kate.
Want me to? Nah.
Her maternal instinct's in overdrive.
If she wants to think of me As her I can handle it.
