I must admit when I read CJ Spooks story suggesting Alex's pregnancy stemmed from being a surrogate mother for a sibling, I thought it an interesting but unlikely premise. Clearly the LOCI writers didn't think it unlikely at all.

If not for my sis
I wouldn't do this
I would go to my tomb
Before renting my womb
But sis's has something amiss.
Still, who knew 'twas such fun
To be a surrogate Mom
And just to prove I'm not bitter
I'm gonna give her a litter!
Why should I stop at just one?
When those kids scream and rant
I'll not be mother but aunt
And I'll be quite happy
To not be changing a nappy
Though I don't want you to think that I can't
Poor Bobby, the dear
Is in big trouble here
The word in the stalls -
His new partner has balls
And no regard for a colleague's career
She'll watch Goren bleed
If it helps her succeed
I hope YOU can contrive
To keep him alive
Without makin' ME intercede.
