Rumors of Jo's sudden pregnancy spread like a virus throughout Eureka, let alone GD. In a matter of hours, Jo began receiving all kinds of gifts. Toys, clothing, diapers, advice. The gifts were gathering in the lab that Allison had to stop the gifts and send them all to Carter's house, though it was more for Jo than for her staff. Jo had enough to worry about, like how her clothes were no longer fitting her body.

Carter entered the lab carrying a bag in his left hand. He hadn't seen her since she blacked out several hours ago, but he noticed she'd gotten bigger. "How's she doing?"

Jo turned toward Carter. She noticed the bag rolled her eyes. "Jack-"

"Now before you panic, Jo, it's not from me." Carter explained.

Allison chuckled. "I thought you could use my old maternity clothes."

Carter set the bag by Jo. "Yeah, so don't kill the messenger."

Jo smiled. "Thank you. Both of you, but um…is there any reason for me to stay here now?"

Allison frowned. "Well, no. Both you and your baby are healthy, but we have no idea what to expect from this Jo."

"If I think anything s wrong, I'll come back, but I have work to do." Jo said. She eased her legs over the edge of her bed.

"Jo wait." Allison said. She walked to her desk and picked up two small gadgets. "I want you to take these."

"Vital monitors?" Jo asked.

Allison nodded. "One for you and one for your baby. If you're going to be out of the medical lab, I still want to how you're both doing. Even if you leave GD, I'll still be able to monitor you both in case something does go wrong."

Jo nodded and took the monitors from Allison. She placed one on her left side, near her heart. The second one was placed on her stomach.

"And before you go home I want to examine you one last time." Allison called.

"Okay." Jo called. She headed for the doors.

Allison sighed. "I wish we knew what we were dealing with, Jack."

Carter looked to Allison. "Well, you said that Jo and her baby are fine."

"Now, but what about tomorrow. I mean, we have no idea just how Terrin programmed his device or what he used to stimulate rapid fetal growth." Allison explained.

"Maybe we should ask him." Carter said. He pulled out his walkie. "Andy, I want you on the lookout for a Doctor Terrin. If you see him, bring him to the station."

"Understood Sherriff." Andy replied.

"It's a start." Carter said.

Allison nodded.

"Look, you've got Jo on the monitor. You'll know if something's wrong." Carter said.

"I know. But I can't help but feel that something very bad is going to happen." Allison replied.

Carter looked back at the door. "I hope your wrong Allison."

"So do I."

Jo sat at her desk, dressed in Allison's old maternity clothes. She'd picked out a pair of black pants and white top. The top was slightly loose over her belly, but Jo knew fairly well it would fit her by the end of her shift.

Despite Allison's attempt to divert the gifts, Jo still found a stack of cards and smaller gifts piled on her desk. Jo gathered them up and dropped them into one of the drawers of her desk. Looking back at her desk, it was then Jo noticed a cup with a covered straw. There was a sticky note attached to the cup.

A healthy combination of proteins and vitamin. Everything for a healthy mother and baby. It read.

Jo smirked. She pulled off the paper straw cover and took a small sip. It was very good. A combination of raspberry and mint. Jo took another sip, this time bigger.

"Thank you Vincent." Jo said.

"Enjoying the perks of pregnant life?"

Jo looked up. Zane was leaning over her desk. Jo set her up down. "Don't you have work to do?"

Zane didn't answer, but his eyes scanned over Jo's body. "You look pretty hot with a baby on board, Lupo."

Jo pulled out her gun. "You do know pregnant women have a tendency to become hormonal at any point in the day? I could pull this trigger and blame it on a hormonal imbalance."

Zane smirked. "You wouldn't kill the father of your baby, Lupo."

Jo cocked her gun and eyebrow.

"Yeah you would." Zane said. He set a pad on her desk. "Security upgrades and complete." He turned from Jo and walked away.

Jo released her gun and set the safety back on. She watched Zane leave her desk. Suddenly she felt something in her stomach. It felt like a flutter of butterflies. Jo placed her hand on her stomach. The movement stopped. Jo frowned and continued drinking her smoothie from Vincent. But she suddenly had a craving for chocolate.
