Lillian

I keep trying to remind myself that when Jesus closes a door he opens a window.

Mary

Yeah, so we have something to jump out of.

Mary

Why would Dean's parents send him to a place like that?

Lillian

They probably didn't think they could handle it.

Mary

What do you mean?

Lillian

Well, having a child is like owning a car. I can change the oil, fill the gas tank, take it to a car wash, but if the carburetor broke, I wouldn't have a clue as to how to fix it.

Mary

So, you're saying you'd just send me to a place like Mercy House?

Lillian

Oh, Mary, please don't tell me you're a lesbian!

Mary

Mom...

Lillian

Do I need to worry about you? No. No, you're perfect. I don't have to worry about you.

Mary
[voice-over]

My mom just compared me to a car, so me having a baby is definitely under the category of things she couldn't handle.

Paramedic
[Mary is going into labor and is being carried into an ambulance]

I only got room for one of you.

Dean

I'm the father.

Patrick

I'm her boyfriend.

Mitch
[points to Dean]

I'm HIS boyfriend.

Paramedic

That's nice, but I've still only got room for one of you.

Lillian
[climbing into the ambulance]

Starting the party without me?

Lillian
[Mary and Lillian are watching a game show]

I hate this show. [switches channel]

Announcer on TV

Coming up on Lifetime: Valerie Bertinelli stars in Bitter Harvest, a sensitive portrayal of one woman's struggle with cancer.

Lillian

Oh, this looks good.

Valerie Bertinelli
[many minutes later]

There was a feeling of twilight in the air. All honeydew and lilac. God wasn't just smiling down on me; he was...jumping up and cheering! And then, well...I thought I was pregnant. I'd been throwing up every morning and I hadn't had my period in two months, so I took a home pregnancy test.

Woman, off-camera

What happened?

Valerie Bertinelli

...found out I wasn't pregnant. It was the cancer.

Mary

She found all that out from a home pregnancy test?
