Archibald: Junior, you and your sisters go into the waiting room.
(Junior nods then hugs both Archibald and Petunia then goes into the waiting room followed by Eloise and Libby then Christina looks back)
Christina: (Worriedly) You're gonna be okay, right Mommy?
Petunia: I'm gonna be okay, sweetheart.
Archibald: It's alright, dear. Go on.
(Christina nods then goes into the waiting room then Petunia suddenly doubles over and groans loudly then Archibald holds her steady then looks around)
Archibald: Help? Can we have some help here?
(Archibald sees a nurse over at the desk)
Archibald: You there! Nurse!
(The nurse jumps slightly then turns to Archibald still holding onto Petunia)
Archibald: My wife's in labor! We need a wheelchair immediately! Hurry!
(The nurse's eyes widen then she nods quickly then hurries off then Petunia turns to Archibald with a small scornful glare)
Petunia: (Whispering) Was that really necessary?
(Archibald shrugs then smiles sheepishly then the nurse comes around with the wheelchair then both Archibald and the nurse help Petunia into the wheelchair)
Nurse: We'll get her into a room.
(Archibald nods then begins pushing Petunia's wheelchair then another nurse at the reception desk clears her throat stopping the three)
Nurse 2: Sir, you gotta fill out her form first.
(Archibald turns to Petunia concerned then looks at the nurse)
Nurse: It's alright, sir. I'll lead her to her room and help her get settled in.
(Archibald leans over towards Petunia)
Archibald: I won't be long.
Petunia: Okay. But make it quick.
(Archibald nods then he and Petunia kiss then the nurse wheels Petunia away then Archibald goes over to the desk then Laura and Vanna approach him from behind)
Vanna: Uncle Archie!
(Archibald turns to Laura and Vanna)
Archibald: (Surprised) Laura, Vanna? What on earth are you two doing here?
(Archibald picks up Vanna)
Laura: What are you doing here, Uncle Archibald?
Archibald: Well, Aunt Petunia's gone into labor and...
Bob: (O.S.) Okay, sweetheart, here we are.
(Archibald turns around then sees Bob leading Katrina into the reception area)
Archibald: Bob?
(Archibald puts Vanna down then she and Laura go over to Junior and Libby and Eloise and Christina in the waiting room then Archibald goes over to Bob and Katrina, eyeing them confusingly)
Archibald: Bob, what's happened?
Bob: Hi, Archie. It looks like Katrina's well sort of gone into labor.
Katrina: (Scoffs) Sort of?
Bob: Ahem. Anyway, here we are.
(Bob looks around)
Bob: Hey, where's Petunia?
Archibald: She's also gone into labor.
Bob: (Surprised) What?
Archibald: (Chuckles) Looks like we're gonna be dads on the same day.
Bob: (Chuckles) Clearly.
(Katrina groans loudly then Bob quickly returns back to her side then a nurse comes with a wheelchair then helps Katrina into it then begins wheeling her away while Bob hurries by her side)
Bob: Okay, babe, just remember your breathing and...
Katrina: (Growls) We took lamaze class, honey, I know the drill!
(Archibald catches up to Bob)
Archibald: Bob?
(Bob turns to Archibald)
Bob: Yeah?
Archibald: I still need to fill out those forms but I'm worried about Petunia possibly having trouble. Is there any way you can be her temporary coach till I get back there?
Bob: But Katrina...
Katrina: I think you should go, sweetie.
(Bob turns to Katrina surprised)
Bob: But I don't wanna leave your side.
Katrina: It's just for a few minutes, I'll be okay till then.
(Katrina leans over then kisses Bob on the forehead then he nods)
Bob: Okay.
(Bob reaches up slightly then pecks Katrina on the lips)
Bob: I love you.
Katrina: Love you too. Catch you later.
(The nurse continues wheeling Katrina away then Bob turns to Archibald)
Bob: Archie, you've got a coach.
(Archibald nods then Bob goes down the hall then Archibald goes back over to the desk then he hears the sound of wheelchair tires skidding then sees a nurse wheeling Ellen with Jimmy following them)
Archibald: Jimmy?
(Jimmy stops)
Jimmy: (Panting) Oh, hi Archie.
Archibald: Is Ellen also...?
Jimmy: Wait. Is Petunia...?
Archibald: Seriously?
Jimmy: Seriously.
(Jimmy shrugs then continues following the nurse while Ellen screams and groans)
