On Gil and Sara's day off they try to sleep in. Sleep is especially important to them now, considering Sara wakes up in the middle night with cravings for interesting foods like star fruit and sea weed. Grissom, being the loving, soon-to-be husband that he is, always runs to the nearest twenty-four hour grocery store to pick up food for her cravings.
Last night she had a craving for strawberries, so at 4:30am Gil went to the local Loblaws and bought a pint of strawberries for his pregnant fiancée. Sara gratefully ate the strawberries, but they didn't get back to bed until 6:00am. Thankfully, it was their day off so they could sleep in, or so they thought.
(Catherine unlocks the door to Gil's house and she and Warrick enter.)
Catherine: Rise and Shine you two! It's seven a.m!
(Sara and Grissom hear her from their bedroom.)
Sara: Did you tell her where the extra key was?
Grissom: Maybe…
Sara: Ugh!
(Sara puts her head under her pillow.)
Grissom: I'll go talk to her.
(Grissom gets up, puts his robe on, and walks out to the living room.)
Grissom: Some of us are trying to sleep Cath!
Warrick: I told you they'd still be asleep!
Catherine: Its seven a.m, I thought you'd be up.
Grissom: Sara had a craving last night which caused me to go to the grocery store at 4:30am and not get back to bed until 6:00am! We've only had four hours of decent sleep!
(Catherine looks embarrassed.)
Catherine: Sorry…I was just excited about the new plans I drew up for the table settings.
(Grissom sighs.)
Grissom: It's okay Cath. I know you meant well. Just hang out here while I try to get my hormonal pregnant fiancée up.
(Grissom heads back to the bedroom.)
Grissom: Sara, honey, Catherine is here with plans for table settings. She is really excited to show you.
(Sara muffled voice comes from under the pillow.)
Sara: Go away. I'm sleeping.
Grissom: Come on sweetie.
(Sara takes her head out from under the pillow.)
Sara: Fine! At least give me fifteen minutes to have a shower to wake me up.
Grissom: Sure, I'll tell them you'll be out in fifteen minutes.
(Sara slowly gets up. As she does Grissom lays back down. Sara slaps his shoulder.)
Grissom: Hey! What was that for?
(Sara gives him an evil look.)
Sara: If I have to be up so do you!
(Grissom groans.)
Sara: Go make a strong pot of coffee.
After Sara's shower.
(Sara enters the living room where Gil, Catherine, and Warrick are sitting.)
Sara: Hi guys. Thank you ever so much for waking me up this morning.
(Gil hands her a cup of coffee and kisses the top of her head.)
Catherine: Yeah, I'm sorry about that, but here's what I wanted to show you!
(Sara looks at the picture which has a beautiful white tablecloth embellished with silver flecks and a crystal vase in the center with six white roses in it.)
Sara: Wow, it's gorgeous. I don't think we'll be able to afford it though.
Catherine: Don't sweat it! I have it all worked out.
Grissom: Wait a second. Warrick, do you want to come to the den with me before the planning starts?
Warrick: Yes please. I'll keep you company.
Catherine: That's why I brought you along.
(Catherine and Sara smirk as the guys leave.)
Catherine: Okay here's what I have. There will be white roses in crystal vases on each table. The tablecloths will be white but have a hint of shimmer. The table setting will all be in the same pattern of white oleander and there will be a bottle of white wine for every table. All of this stuff we can get at this discount store I found.
Sara: Wow, you're organized.
Catherine: Well, that's a planner's job!
Sara: Thanks again Cath. I don't what I would do without you.
Catherine: Let's see, you would be an unhappy pregnant woman who would put everyone through hell.
(Sara rolls her eyes as Catherine chuckles.)
Sara: Thanks.
