Brenda (pleads with Kennedy): Please answer the door

Kenney (opens the door): Hello

Catherine Cryer (Brenda's friend and next door neighbor): Hello, Kennedy

Brenda (soaking wet), she limps toward Catherine): Catherine..

Catherine (comforting Brenda): No, sweetheart. You did not lose the baby. You underwent an emergency caesarean section. I recall you were hemorrhaging back at the house. Thankfully, you and Kennedy got a hold of me. Your daughter survived the tough ordeal.
