Deadly Doula (2022) - full transcript
- Honey?
Lionel?
at the tone,
please record your message.
hey, baby.
You are so sneaky.
I don't deserve you.
I love you.
I don't deserve you.
Honey?
I love you.
Lionel?
I love you.
- Good morning.
- Morning.
- You got any morning cravings
I should know about, hmm?
- Just toast.
- Ugh.
Will you be home by 7:00?
latest, I promise.
- Oh, your wake-up call.
- Oh, thank god.
It's a life saver.
You know, as long
as coffee exists,
How bad can life really be?
Speaking of, I've now put
in my third formal request
For a proper coffee
machine at work and...
I'm still waiting.
- I feel so sorry for you.
Not being able to drink what
you want, when you want.
- You really should,
it's terrible.
- Yeah.
- You have no idea.
You wouldn't understand.
Does that feel better?
- Mm-hmm.
Now if you could get rid
of the constant nausea.
- Well, here's an idea.
You could stay home,
can relax in bed,
Watching your favorite
reality shows back to back.
- Ah-ah-ah, no judgment.
You love them just
as much as me.
No, I gotta go to the
store and check in on Lisa.
- Baby, she knows what
she's doing, all right?
She's a great friend.
You can trust her.
- Yeah, you're right.
I'm just a little nervous
passing my first baby over.
- Well, you're gonna
have to do it soon
Because this baby
is more important.
- Okay.
I will take it easy.
- Okay, I gotta go.
- I love you.
- Rest.
- Okay.
Oo, oo, oo.
- Do not eat that.
It's not worth it.
Oh.
Good.
- Yeah, I did that.
- Great.
I love you.
- Still?
Still.
Bye.

- Oh, morning, Hailey.
Feeling any better?
- Yeah, thanks.
I took a walk and the
fresh air helped so much.
As I was in the area,
I thought I'd drop by.
- Well, sugar is literally
the best medicine.
I'm practically a doctor now,
So I would know.
- You were a dental assistant.
Thanks, this is
exactly what I need.
Mm.
Mm!
Really good!
- Told you.
how's it going?
- Good, I signed off all
the deliveries this morning,
Tidied the backroom,
And now unpacking and
writing up inventory.
- I think I should come
in late more often.
- Well, you know you don't
need to come in at all.
I've got this!
- I never doubted
you for a second.
- And I can't wait 'til
you're officially on maternity
So you're out of my hair.
- Ha!
The boss from hell.
Thanks.
- So proud of you, Hailey.
And I'm loving these
dresses, they're so cute.
- I just hope you use the time
To find out what you wanna do.
- A store like this.
My own personal
wardrobe each day.
Mm, you wanna go
into competition.
Lisa, did you check the order
when you signed off delivery?
- Yeah.
- Well, there must
be some mistake
Because all the
stock's in one size.
- What?
No, no, no-no-no, I checked it.
It can't be.
- It's okay, these
things happen.
Why don't I get on the
phone to the supplier
And I'll fix it?
- Sorry, can I see this?
- It's okay, these
things happen.
You're doing great.
♪ into the great unknown ♪
- Oh, come on, ref!
That's offside!
Who trained this guy?
- Clearly biased.
I wonder what he has
against Springfield school.
- Hey, did you ever try
that ginger root tea
I told you about?
- Not making any difference.
I thought pregnancy was this
blossoming, beautiful time
Of your life and I've
never felt worse.
- Hey, Tyler's free,
he's wide open!
Sorry, sis, but this
one's all your own fault.
- Nicole!
- What?
Look at you!
You're eight months pregnant
And you still have so much
left to plan for this birth.
That baby is coming whether
you're ready for it or not.
- Well, it's not like
this is what I wanted.
After this year, it's just-
- no, I know.
- And I had to get
Lisa up to speed,
And she's getting there.
- Lisa?
I mean, come on, I love her,
but four jobs in four years?
That girl is flaky.
- She needed a job
And I needed someone
I could trust
To look after the store
whilst I'm on maternity.
Why are you stressing
me out even more?
I would love to take it easy
And prepare for the
biggest moment of my life.
It's just not
working out that way.
- Come on, Tyler!
- Good job!
- Oh, you're doing so well.
I'm so proud of you.
Look, mom would want
you to be excited
And putting your baby first.
And I keep telling you, just
do it my way, all right?
Have the home birth.
It is honestly the
best thing I ever did.
What's better than the
comfort of our family home?
All right, just do it, Hailey.
Mom went in for foot surgery
And she died from
the anesthetic.
So if you can avoid
hospitals, you should.
You can even use the
same doula that I had.
Oh, that would be so beautiful!
Hey, ref, come on!
Are you seeing all of this?!
Her name is Riley.
Her company's called
heavenly sent.
Just meet with her
and then decide.
Yes, go Tyler!
all right, here we go.
- What does it say?
- All right, hold on, hold on.
"it's better to be
the head of a chicken
"than the tail of an ox."
Oh!
- I don't know what that means.
- I have no idea.
- My sexy chicken.
- I would be a sexy chicken.
All right, your turn.
- Okay.
My turn.
"nothing in the world
is more dangerous
"than sincere ignorance."
- Hmm.
- Maybe it's a sign
I should call Riley.
- It's not a sign,
it's a cookie.
- A fortune cookie.
You know, my mom won't be there,
And she'll be like my support?
- Well, haven't I
been there enough?
- You're a great husband.
- Uh-oh.
There's a but.
there's no but.
Okay, but it's different.
- Ah.
- This is an experience
only women understand.
- Yeah, but a home birth?
my sister did it.
- Well, you're less than
two months away, baby.
I mean, is that even enough time
To find a doula and prepare?
- I don't know.
But I don't want a labor
That's gonna put me
off having more kids.
And mom's home makes me feel
safe, even if she's not here.
- Okay.
Okay, okay, okay.
Fine.
Get a doula.
Whatever it takes to
start filling this home
With as many little Joes and
little Haileys as possible,
Mainly little Haileys.
And make this home
ours, you know?
New memories.
I'm looking for a certain spot.
Where is it?
- No!
- I think I found it.
- Stop!
- Yeah, that's it.
- Stop!
that's it.
- Hi there, it's
Hailey kendricks.
I wanted to ask about
your doula, Riley,
And her availability please.
If you could please
give me a call back.
I will also send an email.
Thanks.
"out of office until may 22nd."
Great.
- Breathing in.
And exhale out.
Again, breathing in.
And exhale out.
Placing one hand on your
knee and one hand behind you.
- Hi, sorry I'm late.
The traffic is a nightmare.
ladies.
- Sorry.
This feels so good on my back.
Baby's getting heavy.
- Yeah, it's getting
pretty uncomfortable now.
- How far along are you?
- 33 weeks.
- My due date's August 4th.
- Shh!
- Congratulations.
- Boy or girl?
- Girl.
- Same.
Congratulations.
I'm jade.
- Hailey.
- Great to meet you.
- Oh, you too!
I saw it in the yoga studio
And it just really
stood out to me.
Labor coaching?
I didn't even know that existed.
So, glad you found
the house okay.
I'm quite nervous
about this,
So thank you for coming
at such short notice.
- This is a first for me.
Normally expectant mothers are-
- More prepared?
- No, just earlier.
Well, it's been the shortest
months of my life.
It was my sister who thought
maybe I need more support...
And a fortune cookie.
- My job is to make
you feel comfortable.
It's the most natural
thing on earth.
I respect your birth plan and-
- A birth plan?
- Have you thought about it?
To have a baby?
- There are lots of
other factors to consider
Like pain medication and
what music you want playing.
- Oh, a playlist.
Okay.
Well, I want to avoid
pain medication.
No epidural.
Also, I have a deep
fear of hospitals.
- Birth is a physiological
process, not a medical one.
There are fewer c-sections
and medical interventions
With home births because you
and the baby are less stressed.
And it's not without risk.
But if anything goes wrong,
You can be in a
hospital within minutes.
I can massage your shoulders,
We can set up some
music, scented candles.
- Sounds more like
a day at the spa.
- I'm not saying it
won't be painful,
But we can take away the fear.
Water births are
increasingly popular.
The warm water's great
for contractions.
I wish I'd met you
earlier.
My husband asked if
you had any references.
- Out of respect to my clients,
I don't like to share
personal information.
- Would it be possible to
ask a couple for me please?
I'd love to hear about
their experiences.
Oh, but this is great.
You know, I'm
excited.
- Yes, well, usually I'd
like many more sessions
For pain management training.
- Training?
- And bonding time,
breastfeeding,
Creating an exercise regiment.
There's a lot to get through.
- Yeah.
- Plus, due to the reduced
amount of sessions,
I will drop my fee by
half while still making up
As many sessions as
possible, of course.
- How about Friday afternoon?
Hey.
Good, yeah.
Just the heartburn now.
I don't know why
they call it that.
It's nowhere-
I think someone's upstairs.
- Are you serious?
Baby, if you're serious,
get out of there now.
Call the police, okay?
I mean it.
Hailey.
Hailey, please answer me.
Hailey.
Say something.
- I musta left the door open.
I feel so stupid.
- Are you sure?
- I'm fine, I'm just...
Just a little jumpy.
- Be careful, I love you.
- Bye.
It's amazing.
Isn't it?
A miracle.
- I can't really
believe she is in here.
the nursery looks great.
- I can't wait to be a mom.
Just the birth I'm afraid of.
- That's normal.
How long have you
wanted a baby for?
- Ever since we got married,
We talked about
starting a family.
- And your husband's supportive?
He'll help with the baby?
- Yeah.
Yeah, he's excited.
- Anxiety is the biggest cause
of postpartum depression.
It's a big change in your life.
You're gonna need your husband
by your side as a team.
- Yeah.
- My job is to make transition
as easy as possible,
But I'm
not here forever.
Now, for the fun part.
If you take a seat.
- Okay.
- Deep breaths in and out.
You'll be familiar from yoga.
- What are you doing?
- When the pain threshold
hits the next level,
Short shallow
breaths in your nose,
Out your mouth like this.
- Ow!
- Focus.
Breathe through the pain.
Harder.
- Stop.
- Harder.
- Stop.
- Harder.
- Stop!
- That's okay, we'll
just do it again.
- What?
- Here's a list of
items that you'll need
Before the baby arrives.
- Hey!
Jade!
It's Hailey, from yoga.
- Hi!
How are you?
- Good, how are you?
- Ugh, the back pain is
something else, isn't it?
- I know.
- Nearly there, though.
- Yeah, time has
gone by so fast.
Have you gotten
everything ready?
- I think so.
- Well, I'm out on
strict orders today.
- I found this.
Isn't it so cute?
Oh, that is
adorable!
Did you go to fenton state?
- I didn't, my partner.
- My husband, Joe, he did too.
- Oh!
Well, I better get outta here
before I max out my card.
Baby stuff is so expensive,
yet I want it all.
I was thinking of
grabbing a smoothie.
Do you wanna join me?
- Well, I'd love to,
but I've got all this-
- Oh, just a quick drink.
It's important to stay hydrated.
- Okay, yeah.
I mean, they do not tell you
half the information you need.
The smoothie tasted
like shoe polish.
The doctor two weeks later
told me it was a symptom.
I had no idea.
I feel like I have to apologize
to this poor guy.
Thank you.
- Pregnancy's rough.
Honestly, guys have no
idea what we go through.
- No idea.
So, your husband,
how's he coping
With all your crazy symptoms?
- The father isn't
in the picture.
But I am hoping he'll step
up when the time comes.
- Oh.
Sorry, I feel like
such an idiot now.
- No!
- No, that was so insensitive.
I don't know why
I even asked that.
Do not worry.
Your husband must be so pumped.
- Yeah, yeah, he is.
He's still getting used to the
whole doula home birth thing.
- That is exactly what I want!
A home birth.
I just haven't found
the right midwife yet.
- Well, I could
give you her details
Bea Wexford.
She's great.
- That would be great!
- Sure!
- Thank you.
A natural birth is
just so beautiful,
When you see new life
enter this world.
- You haven't, have you?
- Oh yeah, a ton.
I've even delivered quintuplets.
- You're kidding.
Please tell me you're kidding.
Oh, wait.
Wait, so you're a midwife.
- No, I deliver
kittens and puppies.
- Oh!
- I'm a vet.
But delivering babies
isn't so different.
- That is so cool.
Okay, so you're a
doctor and you...
You don't want a hospital birth?
- I've just seen what
goes on behind the scenes,
The amount of times
patients get sicker
After they're admitted.
But I'm already on
maternity leave.
The second the smell of
blood made me nauseous,
I knew I was not a
lotta use at work.
- Oh, I am sorry.
My meeting overran.
This client is a nightmare.
- Sorry, I couldn't wait.
- That's all right.
- I was starving.
- How'd it go with
the doula today?
- Good!
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
We did some more
breathing exercises.
- Is that normal?
- Uh-huh.
I lasted an entire 45
seconds without losing it.
I think if I just stay in
my head, it might just work.
Baby, I do not envy you.
I swear, if men
had to give birth,
There would be a lot
more drugs and surrogacy.
- Well, as much as I would love
to switch places, we can't.
So, I guess it's only fair,
one year on diaper duty?
- Oh, an entire year?
Okay, you're right,
two.
Oh, now it's gone
up to two.
hi!
you found
the house okay?
- Great, yeah.
Yeah.
Nice place!
- Thanks.
How are you feeling today?
- Better.
Just wish I could get
a good night's sleep.
- I have an amazing
tip to help you sleep.
- It's not more pinching, is it?
no.
It's all about
pillows, lots of them.
Take a seat.
Can I have your jacket?
ah, thanks.
- Would you like some water?
- Oh, yes please.
- That's today's itinerary,
Which is going to
focus on breastfeeding.
First off, your phone.
- My phone?
- I just need to install an app.
While your due date
is five weeks away,
She could arrive any day now.
- Really?
- Okay, it's called
get here now.
It sends me your exact location.
You just press this button here.
- See?
It's that simple.
- Okay.
- It opens up a map and
you can track me live.
I will come no matter where
I am or what I'm doing.
So, don't be shy.
As soon as you feel a twinge
Or anything you're
concerned about,
Press it.
- Okay.
- You can have
many false starts,
But eventually it'll
be the real thing.
- Okay, but...
What if you're with
another client?
- I'm very particular
about who I take on
So the due dates don't clash.
- Oh, yeah, those references.
Did you get a chance?
- I'm still waiting to hear
back, but I'll let you know.
oh, one moment.
- Hi.
- Hi.
I'm jade,
sorry I'm a bit early.
Hailey!
- Jade, hey!
Hi!
- Sorry, I'm early.
I got my timing wrong.
- No, no, you're fine.
You're so big.
- Have we met before?
I feel like I know
you from somewhere.
- No, I don't think so.
As you can see, I followed
up on your recommendation
And got in touch with bea.
- Yes.
Well, we are in the middle
of a session, so maybe-
- No, no, it's not
a problem, really.
I've gotta get back
to the store anyway,
So I'll just leave
you guys to it.
- No, no, don't go yet.
I feel bad.
- Really, it's fine.
Would you mind
getting my jacket?
Sorry, I've got so
much to do anyway.
Plus, you need a
doula as much as me.
- Well, let me take
you out for some decaf
And thank you sometime.
After yoga tomorrow?
- Decaf?
Oh, the sacrifices we
make for our babies.
Sounds great, thanks.
- Can we meet up Friday then?
actually,
I'm meeting my sister.
How about Saturday?
Lisa!
- Oh, I didn't
mean to bother you,
But I didn't know what to do.
- You had to text, otherwise
you couldn't lock up.
- I put them down somewhere,
But I just don't
know where it went.
- They'll show up when
you least expect it.
- I'm gonna put these
with my house keys
So they'll be harder to lose.
Now go home and
put your feet up.
- You know what?
I think I'm gonna stick
around a bit longer.
- Great class today.
- Yeah, it was!
How'd it go with bea?
- Uh...
- Not for you?
Oh, I'm sorry.
- No, don't be.
I just wouldn't trust
her with my baby.
She's so young
and inexperienced.
You're very brave to
be her first client.
She did tell you that, right?
No one's ever hired her.
- Actually, no, she didn't.
- She should've told you.
Us moms need to stick together.
Why don't we go out for lunch
And we can look through a
list of respected doulas?
- I can't.
Gotta head back to the store.
- Still haven't switch off, huh?
- Hailey, thank you so
much for the invitation.
I'd love to come.
- Great, see you there!
You should come.
My baby shower, this Saturday.
- No, don't feel you
have to invite me.
- No, I don't,
you're very welcome.
Us moms need to stick together.
- Hey, honey, I'm just
heading back for my laptop.
I'll see you soon, okay?
Love you, bye.

Say hi!
Hi!
happy baby
shower, Hailey.
- Oh, Lisa, thank you!
That is amazing!
this is Cole.
- Oh, look at him!
Oh.
- I'm just gonna be
one second, thanks.
- Hey, buddy!
- How are you?
- Thanks for coming.
- Thank you for inviting me.
- I wanted to ask you something.
Apparently, I'm
your first client?
- Um...
Who said that?
- That doesn't matter.
Okay, you are my first,
But for my business.
I graduated top of my class
in nursing and midwifery.
And I promise you, I'm the
best person for this job.
- Why didn't you tell me?
- Who wants to be
a doula's first?
- Me.
Everyone has their first.
I think it might
be kinda special.
You'll never forget my
little girl, will you?
- No.
I really won't.
- I bet Joe is hating
missing out on all of this.
Let's make him
jealous, shall we?
Come on.
Big smiles.
- Jade!
Come here!
Put it higher.
Oh, there we go.
- Oh, okay.
Hi, it's Hailey.
Are you sure this is for me?
- I'm sure it's all a mistake.
Lisa.
- One second, okay?
Yeah?
- I just got off the phone
with our insurance company
About a claim for smoke damage.
Do you know anything about this?
- I told them to call me.
I didn't want them to
bother you with it.
- Wait, I'm confused.
There's smoke damage?
- No.
Okay, I handled it.
There was just a small incident,
But I took care
of it, I promise,
So don't worry.
- Lisa.
- I don't know, I musta left
the iron on or something.
There was just like...
A small fire.
- Okay, so now I gotta
go back to the store.
- No, Hailey, this
is your baby shower.
- You know what, Lisa?
You should have told me.
We gotta wrap this up.
You know I'm not gonna enjoy
myself until I check it out.
- No.
Everything's fine, really!
- Sorry, ladies.
- Where are you?
I've been waiting for hours.
I can't make it tonight.
It's not a good time.
- When then?
soon.
Soon.
- It was my baby shower!
I was supposed to
switch off from work.
Do I look switched off?!
no.
- Honey, have you seen
my mom's earrings?
I mean, I always keep them here.
I just...
I can't lose them.
I mean, I must be going crazy.
- Hey, all right, hey.
- I'm losing my mind!
- Take a breath.
This is a clearly a sign that
you've taken on way too much.
What you need to do is stay
home, take care of yourself.
- Why is everyone telling me
what I should and shouldn't do?
Lisa should've told me.
I would've sorted
it there and then.
- If you don't want me to go
on this site visit, just say.
- It's not like
you have a choice.
- Soon, I am going to be
spending all of my time
Making this our family home.
- This is our home.
- You know what I mean.
Adding some Kendrick
touches to it.
Make it ours.
- I couldn't sell mom's house.
- All right, you know what?
I'm gonna call up ted.
I'm gonna tell him to take
my spot because clearly-
- No, don't, you
know you've gotta go.
I'm fine.
Really, I mean it.
- So...
You are not going to
miss your husband, hmm?
- A little bit.
- A little bit?
- Yeah.
Are you gonna miss
your big fat wife?
- This machine's
fantastic, isn't it?
Women use it right
through to pushing.
Completely natural, doesn't
harm you or the baby.
Okay, here's the first setting.
Should feel that
twitching sensation.
You feel that?
- Yep, yep, I'm feeling that.
- So, you can keep turning it
up as the labor progresses.
- Okay.
your back pain
should be easing now.
- Yeah.
- And then you have this.
It gives you a
sudden electric surge
When you have a bad contraction.
- Okay.
- Higher.
Higher.
Higher.
Higher.
Higher.
oh!
Are you okay?!
- Ow!
What happened?!
- Oh my god.
I don't know, this has
never happened to me before!
One second!
- Okay.
I think I'm just gonna
use your restroom.
- One of them is
gonna be my baby.
oh.
- I'm adopting.
- Congratulations.
- I can't have children; well,
in the traditional sense,
So I'm gonna give a
child a loving home.
It's a genetic condition.
I've known since I was little.
I'm fine with it, though.
That's why I love this job.
To be part of
someone's pregnancy
In some way is really special.
To be the first one
to hold that baby
When they leave their mother
And start the rest
of their lives.
I can catch
the next flight out.
I can be home by tonight.
- No, baby, I'm fine.
- All right, well I hope
you're not thinking of jumping
Because I don't want
you getting a head start
On labor without me.
- Maybe.
I'll see you tomorrow.
Nicole!
Looks like you're having
more fun than Tyler.
- Is Joe okay?
- Joe's still pushing
me to ditch that doula.
- It's not too late.
- You've had a change of heart.
I thought you were all,
"natural is beautiful."
- No, I am, but not
if she's a psycho.
- I like her.
- Hey, you okay?
Sit down.
- Just a little Braxton hicks.
- You're making me nervous.
- Okay.
- Still can't find
mom's earrings?
- My head's all over the place
since the shop nearly burned.
- You try so hard to
see the good in people
And you keep digging
deeper and deeper,
And with some people
it's just not there.
I just don't trust bea.
Look, just be careful, okay?
I don't wanna lose you too.
- I can't have children.
I'm gonna give a
child a loving home.
To be the first
one to hold a baby
When they leave
their mother's arms
And start the rest
of their lives.
One of them is gonna be my baby.
Good job, Hailey!
You lasted an entire minute!
You're gonna ace this.
Is everything okay?
- Just overtired.
- If this is about
yesterday, I'm so sorry.
The machine-
- no, you're fine.
- I was hoping I might
be able to meet Joe soon.
- I know.
I know, he's just
overloaded with work.
- Yeah, he seems to be.
Hailey, I think I
know what's going on.
- What?
- Joe's left you.
You're scared and
afraid, and that's okay.
I'm here.
- No!
He's just out of
town returning late.
What, no!
- Okay.
I hope to meet him soon.
And the sooner the better.
No time for small
talk during labor.
Just gonna go get some
swaddling blankets from the car.
what were
these doing in your purse?
- I have no idea.
- My mom's earrings,
Bracelet, my jewelry!
- I have no idea.
- Bea, you need to leave.
- Okay, I'll just
come back later.
- No, don't come back.
I don't wanna see you again!
- You're weeks away and we
have so many more sessions.
- Bea, you're fired!
- Hi.
- Hi.
- How you doing?
- Not bad.
I mean, the kicks are more
like complete rolls now.
I think she takes after you.
Future soccer player.
Here.
- Wha?
Wow!
Look at her little hands!
- Isn't it amazing?
- You need anything?
Money or, I don't know, diapers?
- Just more time with you.
- Jade, I...
- We're having a baby.
- I know, and I'm gonna be
there, but just for her, okay?
There's no "we".
- Why, you haven't
even given us a chance.
- Jade.
I'm trying to be sensitive here,
But it was a
one-time thing, okay?
Nothing more.
I've told you, I love my wife.
- You treat me like I'm
some sort of filthy...
I'm the mother of your child.
- I'm sorry, I'm
sorry, don't get upset.
- You can't keep your
life separate, Caleb.
That night, you made a
decision to be with me
And now our lives are
bound together forever.
We're gonna be parents!
- Just...
Just call me when the
baby arrives, all right?
take care
of yourself, jade.
- Baby...
I'm so sorry.
- You said you'd
be home by lunch.
Where were you?
- I had to swing by
the office first.
- Instead of seeing your wife?
Your pregnant wife?
- No, I am sorry.
I trusted her.
- Look.
Maybe this is for
the best, you know?
- How?!
I'm due in a month!
I have no one!
I can't do this.
- Hey.
- I can't do this.
yes you
can, you have me.
- That's the one thing
she did get right.
You're never here.
I share you with work.
- Look, you are obsessed
with your work too, baby.
I mean, that's just what we do.
- But I can't anymore!
My life's changing so
much and yours isn't.
- You're right.
You're right.
Look, from now on, I am
going to be here for you.
You are the most
important thing in my life
And you aren't doing this alone.
Hey, look at me.
We're gonna be okay.
- I'm scared.
- I know.
your baby
looks very healthy.
You're doing a great job, mommy.
- Wow.
That's the head.
Wow.
- I'm going to let you clean up
And I'll see you at the front
desk for copies of your scans.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
See, I told you,
everything's fine.
- Good.
- She's perfect.
- Joe.
I want the home birth.
I know it didn't
work out with bea,
But I don't wanna
go into a hospital
Unless it's an emergency.
It's what my mom would want.
- Okay.
Whatever you want.
- Hailey, what are
you doing here?
- Well, at least somebody was.
If you need to head out,
You gotta tell me
so I can get cover.
- Well, you're not even
supposed to be working.
You're supposed to relax.
- Excuse me for not finding
any of this relaxing.
Missing keys, the shop
nearly burning down,
Finding it shut during in
the busiest time of the day.
- Well, I'm sorry I'm not
as perfect as you, Hailey.
- That's not fair.
I gave you a chance when
others said I shouldn't
Because I believed in you.
And now, this is
how you repay me.
- Wow.
Wow.
it's
a perfect sunny Sunday
In California.
In your car, home, or at work,
Thanks for choosing us
to join you on pulse 73.
- Hailey.
- Huh?
- That better be for Joe.
You know Camembert
isn't good for the baby.
- Oh!
Oh, yeah.
Yeah it is.
How are you doing?
- Partly counting down the days
And partly wishing
the day never comes.
- Oh, yeah, I know.
- How's Joe?
- He's good.
He's good, yeah.
How are things
with the boyfriend?
Any better?
- He's really busy with work,
Which is tough.
You know, being on your own.
Late nights, work trips.
I'm sure you know
what that's like.
- Yeah.
- What does Joe do again?
- He's an architect
at Lodwell's.
- Oh.
- I'm sorry, I think
you told me, but-
- An engineer.
Don't ask me exactly
what he engineers,
But gives him a good
excuse not to be home much,
Which is why us ladies
have to stick together.
How's that girl anyway, bea?
- It didn't work out.
- Do you still
want a home birth?
- Well, I'd like to, but
I'm running outta time.
- Let me do it.
I've delivered
hundreds of babies.
- Well, you know, it's
probably at this stage
Not even worth it anymore.
- I'm joking.
Your face!
- This just isn't exactly how
I envisioned my pregnancy.
- I say good riddance.
She stole really personal
things for quick cash.
I mean, your mom's earrings?
She's a monster.
- It just doesn't
make any sense.
Why?
She's been calling me,
telling me I've got it wrong.
I don't know, maybe I should
give her a chance to explain.
- As a medical
professional, my advice:
Isn't it time to stop
with these witch doctors?
- That's a bit unfair.
- I mean, a doula's what?
Two hours online
for a certificate?
- Bea's a qualified midwife.
Many are.
- My point is let's be
each other's support.
I mean, who knows better
what you're going through
With the pregnancy
than me, right?
- Yeah.
- When the time comes, let a
doctor step in and do the rest,
But you don't need
to hire someone
To help you with the pregnancy.
That's what I'm here for.
Why don't we go for a
walk after work tomorrow?
Obviously, broken up with
breaks every five minutes.
Yeah.
Sorry, would you mind?
It's my sister.
I gotta take this.
I'll be one second, sorry.
- Please.
- Sorry, sorry.
Hey, Nicole?
- If you had just listened to
your sister from the start,
You wouldn't have
wasted all this time.
I don't know why Riley's
not getting back to me.
Maybe she's on sabbatical?
I mean, we talked about her
dreams of traveling around Asia,
But that's going
back seven years now.
Oh my god, how do I
have a seven-year-old?
- Good afternoon.
Are you here for an ultrasound?
- Hi, Lionel.
It's me, it's Nicole.
I don't know if you remember.
- How's Tyler doing?
- Oh, he's good!
He's so big now.
He's not my little baby anymore.
- Any brothers and sisters?
- Of course not.
I would've come to see
Riley, which is why I'm here.
Not for me, obviously,
But my sister is in
urgent need of a doula
And I want her to have the best.
- I guess you haven't heard?
I thought she was
getting better.
She was taking
time out to mourn.
mourn?
- A client.
Her baby died.
She went into labor early
And Riley couldn't
make it in time.
She blamed herself.
I knew she was struggling,
but I never thought-
- Riley always treated
me like I was family,
So she must've mourned
like it was her own.
- She called me minutes
before to leave a voicemail.
- I don't deserve you.
I love you.
- She sounded fine.
Said I didn't deserve her.
I'm not sure what I did,
but minutes later...
I'm sorry.
So, you need a doula?
- I had one, but
it didn't work out.
- Anyone I'd know?
- Bea?
Bea Wexford?
- Bea Wexford!
How's she doing?
- You know her?
- Know her?
She was my wife's prodigy.
I haven't seen her
since the funeral,
But I always really liked her.
Riley trained her up,
Had nothing but good
words to say about bea.
She stole from me.
- Thank you, that's the first
laugh I've had in weeks.
Bea inherited a fortune.
She doesn't need to work,
but she chose this career
To make a difference,
just like my wife did.
- There you are.
Can you get the drinks?
- We need to talk.
- Not tonight, I'm
not in the mood.
Let's just eat and
watch Netflix, okay?
- It can't wait.
- Unless you're telling
me we've won the lottery,
I don't wanna hear it.
Let's just save it for
the counselors next week.
I can't.
I don't know how to
say this.
- Did you sleep with someone?
- Oh my god.
Oh my god, I knew it!
I knew it!
Ugh!
- It was a one-night
stand, okay?
Just the once.
It was while we
were on our break.
It was a big mistake, okay?
I regretted it instantly.
I love you with all of my heart!
- You lied to me!
- I know.
- You lied to our counselor!
- I know.
- You lied to everyone!
What's the point
of any of it, huh?!
- Just didn't wanna lose you.
- Yeah right, whatever.
- There's more.
- What?
- The woman...
It's mine.
- What?
- It happened only
once, I swear!
If you let me, we
can work on this.
Okay, I'll do whatever you want.
I'll do whatever it takes,
just give me a chance!
why
didn't you tell me?
- I'm so, so angry with him.
- But you love him.
- I do.
For my sins.
- Do you know who?
- No.
He won't say.
But I have a right
to know, right?
I mean, I'm gonna be a stepmom.
- Do you need a couple of days
to figure it out with Caleb?
I feel good.
I can manage.
Please.
- Thanks.
- I just cannot believe
Caleb, you know?
I never thought he would
do something like this.
- Maybe they can work it out.
- Well, what about us?
Have we worked things out?
- I think you still have
some making up to do.
- Oh, I do?
Okay.
what's that?
Honey, what is that?
- Stay here, okay?
Stay right there.
I'm just
gonna go try this on.
- Okay, great.
Right over there.
- Your pick-me-up.
ah, thanks.
- You really shouldn't
be on your feet, okay?
- I just can't stop
thinking about it.
- I followed up with the police.
They said they're checking
the cameras for prints,
But it's gonna take a while.
You know, bea has been
in our house a lot.
- No.
- And with the jewelry-
- No, no, why would she?
- Will you promise me
You will let me take
care of this, okay?
I will find out
who's responsible.
- Hey, hey!
Hey!
Hey!
You can't face me?!
Are you a coward?!
- I don't have to talk to you!
- If that's my husband's baby,
We're gonna be seeing a
whole lot more of each other.
- I doubt that.
He's been desperate to
leave you for months.
He loves me.
- We're not letting some
loose tramp ruin our marriage.
- You're pathetic.
He doesn't want
anything to do with you!
- Oh my god.
Oh my god.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Here, let me help you.
What's that?
- Don't apologize, sweetheart.
- Hailey!
- Jade, hey.
- Hailey.
- How are you?
- Good, are you okay?
I didn't hear back
about getting together.
Thought we were supposed to be
each other's support system.
- Oh, yeah, sorry,
I meant to respond,
But I've just not
been feeling up to it.
- Well, then you need
me now more than ever,
With the birth in a month,
your hospital date so close,
Overcoming your fear after
what happened to your mom.
You can't go through this alone.
Bea stealing from you
and putting cameras
around your house.
- Were you after
anything in particular?
- Yes, something light and flowy
If you have anything that'd
go over this big thing.
Oh, that is perfect.
- Sure.
Here you go.
I'll take it.
- You don't wanna try it on?
- No, it's great.
- That'll be $65 please.
- Are you okay, Hailey?
- Yeah, it's just Braxton hicks.
- And you're still working?
- I'm fine.
Really.
- I hope so.
Us moms need to stick together.
Thanks.
- Nicole, she knew about mom,
about my fear of hospitals.
Dr. Jade Goddard.
- Your bouquet is ready.
- And that it was mom's
earrings that were stolen.
I never told her any of that.
She could only know
through the cameras.
- Good afternoon,
can I help you?
- I'd like to drop off
flowers for my friend.
Is jade Goddard
working at the moment?
- Oh, unfortunately no.
She's on maternity leave still.
- Actually, do you know
When she'll be
returning back to work?
- It's all a bit up
in the air right now,
As she didn't intend to leave
so suddenly a month ago.
It depends on how her
daughter progresses.
Have you met her
little girl yet?
- No.
- Poor thing.
I don't even know if she's
outta the preemie ward yet.
Well, thank god for her doula
Standing by her every
step of the way.
- I'll drop by her house later.
Thank you.
- Your flowers!
- Lionel, I need to know if
that was your wife's patient.
- It's her.
- She has a bump,
a very big bump,
And she's been showing
up at my yoga class
And she was at this-
- that's not possible.
- Do you know who the father was
Or any way to contact
him, any family?
I think she needs help.
"depression.
"vulnerable patient.
"fostered.
"no relationship
with foster family.
"highly abusive upbringing.
"possible PTSD.
"likely candidate
for postpartum.
"discussed father.
"Caleb."
- Honey?
Traffic was a nightmare,
But if we leave now,
we shouldn't be late.
I just
hope Lisa's okay.
- Still haven't heard anything?
- Sorry, Joe.
We can't have you
crashing the party.
Hello, bea.
Hoo!
Okay.
This is it.
Okay, this is it.
This is, this is definitely it.
It's happening.
I can do this.
I can do this, okay.
Come on, bea, I need you.
hey, you've reached Joe.
Please leave a message
after the tone.
- Hey, honey.
It's me.
It's time.
Okay, don't rush.
It could take hours.
And I've already called bea.
I know she was set up,
And we need her here with
us to do it together.
I know it's early, but I
think she's ready to meet us.
- We're having a baby.
We're having a baby.
Baby's here.
- No way, congratulations!
- Uh-huh, thank you.
- Good luck, good luck!
- Thank you, guys.
- Oh, Mr. Kendricks?
- Yeah.
Your wife's doula
is here to see you.
- Sorry, I didn't
mean to interrupt.
I just wanted to bring you a
cup of your favorite coffee
To apologize for everything.
- We don't have
time, we've gotta go.
- Go?
- Yeah, Hailey's in labor.
You didn't get the message?
- I didn't know, it's too soon.
Joe, your coffee.
- Look, I don't know what
to make of any of this,
But if my wife trusts you
then that's all that matters.
Just don't...
Don't do anything
thing to hurt her.
Hailey is everything to me.
I just wanna know that
her and my baby are safe.
- Here, Joe, your-
- hi, baby.
I'm on my way.
I've got the doula with me.
Just deep breaths, all right?
I love you so much.
Let's meet our baby.
- That baby is mine and Caleb's.
- What is he talking about?
Why isn't he here?!
- Hailey.
I need you to focus.
Your contractions
are coming on fast.
Get back into your body.
I'll speak to Joe, but,
Hailey, we don't have long.
- The water birth.
- We don't have time.
- It's too soon.
It's too soon!
- I can't do this!
It hurts too much!
Please, can we go to
the hospital, please?
- You can't, Hailey.
The baby's coming.
- Baby's coming?
- You've done such a good
job, now stay with me, okay?
I'll get it.
You're gonna feel like pushing,
But I need you to hold
on a little longer.
Can you do that for me?
I'll be right back.
- Joe?
Mr. Kendricks
is receiving care
At Bolton institute
emergency ward.
His condition is stable, but
please get here when you can.
- We'll see you soon.
was that Joe?
that was your sister.
She's on her way.
oh, okay, I'll wait.
- Hailey, if you wait any
longer, she'll be distressed.
- My baby?
- You've done
everything perfectly,
But now it's time to
meet your daughter.
Work with me here.
On the count of three,
you need to start pushing.
One...
Two...
Three.
okay, next one.
Push.
Push.
Push.
Okay, breathe.
Look at me, Hailey.
Okay?
I can't do it.
- You're doing it.
You're doing it.
You got it.
- I can't do it anymore.
- You got it.
- I can't do it anymore.
- You got it.
Hailey, look at me.
- I can't do it anymore.
- Look at me.
Hailey, look at me.
You can and you will.
You're gonna meet your daughter.
Three...
Two...
One...
Push.
She's here!
She's here!
She's here.
You did it, Hailey!
You did it!
- I got you.
I got you.
- Oh, just browsing, thanks.
Oh my gosh, how
far along are you?
33 weeks.
It's a girl.
- Oh, congratulations!
boy or girl?
- Girl.
- Same.
Congratulations.
I'm jade.
Hello, my precious dawn.
what's her name?
Mia.
Mia.
Oh, my mia.
Oh.
Hang on, I think he's here.
Honey?
- Hailey, we need to
go to the hospital.
- Is there something
wrong with the baby?
- No, no, she's perfect.
It's Joe.
He's been in an accident.
- No!
No!
- He's fine.
But we should go and see him
So he can meet his little girl.
- What happened?
- I don't know, I spoke with
the doctor and he's stable.
The best thing for Joe right now
Is for both his
girls to be safe,
So we're gonna go calmly
and slowly to the hospital.
How do you feel?
Do you think you could
stand in a shower
While I get the baby ready?
- I can go now, I can go now.
- Hailey, you'll feel
better and clean.
Okay?
You did such a good job, mommy.
You're gonna meet
your dad today.
I'm just gonna put
these in the car
And then I'll be right back.
- Oh, my precious dawn.
It's time to meet your daddy.
- No!
- Hailey?
- Where's my baby?
- Jade, it was jade!
Where's your phone?
Over there!
- I need the police
and an ambulance.
I was attacked and my
patient's baby was stolen.
I'm at 322 Longbourne drive.
Hurry please.
Hailey!
Where are you going?
- I need to save my baby,
I can't just wait here!
- You've just given birth, okay?
The police will come back
with your baby soon, okay?
I promise.
- Hi.
Where is she?
She's beautiful.
What have you named her?
- Dawn.
- Dawn.
Hey, why didn't you
call me in the hospital?
- I didn't have time.
I was busy giving birth.
- I'm amazed they let
you go home so soon.
- It was a smooth delivery.
She's perfect, look at her.
The only place she should be
is at home with her parents.
- What are those?
that must be them.
- I have to tell my husband.
He has to know.
- Here you go.
Let him know that
we're on our way, okay?
- Do you have anything
to help with the pain?
- Yes, I can get
some acetaminophen.
I'll be right back.
Yeah.
- I got us a beautiful
house in Texas.
It's a long drive, but dawn
will sleep most of the way.
- You're leaving town?
- Not me.
Us.
You, me, and dawn.
- What?
Jade.
I said I'd support the baby,
But I'm not gonna
be with you, okay?
Look, I need to find my wife.
She'll wanna meet her.
- Your wife?!
Your family is here.
- Shh.
We haven't even discussed this
And you haven't even
mentioned anything at all!
You just spring this on me.
You expect me to just
move to Texas with you?
Are you out of your mind?!
you expect me to
not hold you accountable
For your actions?
You slept with me.
That is our child!
I said I'd
support the baby, okay?
I am not going to be with you!
Okay, you must be exhausted
and emotional and-
- Caleb, we need to go now!
- Jade, that's enough.
It's okay, baby.
Come here.
There we go.
Hello?
Caleb?
oh my god!
Caleb, what's wrong?
It's Lisa, she's
dead!
The police rang and they want
me to come and identify her!
I don't know what
to do.
- It's probably better this way.
- What?!
- You can't drive like this.
You should stay here tonight
and we'll leave in the morning.
- What are you talking...
I don't under...
Did you want this to happen?
- Are you crazy?
- She was found in Carling park.
That's our park.
Did you?
Did you go and meet Lisa?
- Caleb.
- Answer me!
Did you go and meet Lisa?!
Jade.
- She wasn't that special.
- You killed my wife!
I'm sorry, baby.
Your head.
Hailey!
Hailey, do not touch my baby!
- Jade, please stop!
Let us go!
if you touch
her, I will kill you.
- I know you're in pain,
but this isn't the answer.
You're gonna have your own
beautiful, healthy baby.
Please!
- You have no idea what
I have been through.
Riley left my baby to die.
- You killed her, didn't you?
- It was all her fault.
- I know what happened.
There's nothing
anybody could've done.
It was a miscarriage.
Killing me won't bring your
girl back and you know that.
- She was my entire world.
The one chance at the
family I never had.
I just had to kill bea and Joe
And it just all
woulda been easy.
- You were fostered, right?
I know you're gonna
make a great mom.
I know because you're
never gonna let your child
Suffer like you did.
Jade.
Why don't we find someone
who can help you, you know?
You don't have to go
through this alone.
- I am not alone.
I have Caleb and dawn now.
- Jade, can we talk about this?
Jade?
Jade?
Jade?
Oh, little one.
We'll be home soon.
- Come on, Caleb, we
gotta get you outta here.
Come on.
What has she done to you?
What has she done to you?
Caleb, come on.
- As if a mother would give
up on her family that easily.
- Don't do this.
- You.
I didn't want it
to end like this.
Well, maybe I did.
- They'll lock you up.
You'll never see your baby.
- No one will find us and
dawn will have a loving home.
- She's my baby!
I'm mia's mom!
- You are not a mom!
You put my baby
in so much danger
With that stupid
pubescent doula.
They're not to be trusted,
And you kept working and
putting stress on my baby.
My baby!
Not even a fire would stop you.
You never put dawn first!
- And a good mom wouldn't
keep a gun in the house.
It's okay, baby.
It's okay.
Hey.
Hi.
Baby mia.
Isn't she beautiful?
- I shoulda been there.
- You were there.
All I saw was you there
with me, by my mom.
- Mr. And Mrs. Kendricks.
I just wanted to check
you're both recovering well.
- Do you have any news?
- We did an autopsy
on Riley bishop
And found traces
of pentobarbital,
A seizure medicine used
to euthanize animals.
We also found the same
traces in the coffee
That was in the flask your
husband was attacked with.
And with a murder
charge of Lisa young
Added to her rap sheet,
She'll never be free
to harm anyone again.
- Thank you.
tell me
if it's too soon.
- No, no, not at all.
We were hoping you'd
come, all right?
Come on, we're in here.
oh my gosh.
Wow.
Hi.
shall we open
some presents, mia?
- Sounds great, yes.
Oh, what do we have here?
- This is for you.
oh, who is this from?
You lucky thing.
"happy birthday."
- Mama.
Lionel?
at the tone,
please record your message.
hey, baby.
You are so sneaky.
I don't deserve you.
I love you.
I don't deserve you.
Honey?
I love you.
Lionel?
I love you.
- Good morning.
- Morning.
- You got any morning cravings
I should know about, hmm?
- Just toast.
- Ugh.
Will you be home by 7:00?
latest, I promise.
- Oh, your wake-up call.
- Oh, thank god.
It's a life saver.
You know, as long
as coffee exists,
How bad can life really be?
Speaking of, I've now put
in my third formal request
For a proper coffee
machine at work and...
I'm still waiting.
- I feel so sorry for you.
Not being able to drink what
you want, when you want.
- You really should,
it's terrible.
- Yeah.
- You have no idea.
You wouldn't understand.
Does that feel better?
- Mm-hmm.
Now if you could get rid
of the constant nausea.
- Well, here's an idea.
You could stay home,
can relax in bed,
Watching your favorite
reality shows back to back.
- Ah-ah-ah, no judgment.
You love them just
as much as me.
No, I gotta go to the
store and check in on Lisa.
- Baby, she knows what
she's doing, all right?
She's a great friend.
You can trust her.
- Yeah, you're right.
I'm just a little nervous
passing my first baby over.
- Well, you're gonna
have to do it soon
Because this baby
is more important.
- Okay.
I will take it easy.
- Okay, I gotta go.
- I love you.
- Rest.
- Okay.
Oo, oo, oo.
- Do not eat that.
It's not worth it.
Oh.
Good.
- Yeah, I did that.
- Great.
I love you.
- Still?
Still.
Bye.

- Oh, morning, Hailey.
Feeling any better?
- Yeah, thanks.
I took a walk and the
fresh air helped so much.
As I was in the area,
I thought I'd drop by.
- Well, sugar is literally
the best medicine.
I'm practically a doctor now,
So I would know.
- You were a dental assistant.
Thanks, this is
exactly what I need.
Mm.
Mm!
Really good!
- Told you.
how's it going?
- Good, I signed off all
the deliveries this morning,
Tidied the backroom,
And now unpacking and
writing up inventory.
- I think I should come
in late more often.
- Well, you know you don't
need to come in at all.
I've got this!
- I never doubted
you for a second.
- And I can't wait 'til
you're officially on maternity
So you're out of my hair.
- Ha!
The boss from hell.
Thanks.
- So proud of you, Hailey.
And I'm loving these
dresses, they're so cute.
- I just hope you use the time
To find out what you wanna do.
- A store like this.
My own personal
wardrobe each day.
Mm, you wanna go
into competition.
Lisa, did you check the order
when you signed off delivery?
- Yeah.
- Well, there must
be some mistake
Because all the
stock's in one size.
- What?
No, no, no-no-no, I checked it.
It can't be.
- It's okay, these
things happen.
Why don't I get on the
phone to the supplier
And I'll fix it?
- Sorry, can I see this?
- It's okay, these
things happen.
You're doing great.
♪ into the great unknown ♪
- Oh, come on, ref!
That's offside!
Who trained this guy?
- Clearly biased.
I wonder what he has
against Springfield school.
- Hey, did you ever try
that ginger root tea
I told you about?
- Not making any difference.
I thought pregnancy was this
blossoming, beautiful time
Of your life and I've
never felt worse.
- Hey, Tyler's free,
he's wide open!
Sorry, sis, but this
one's all your own fault.
- Nicole!
- What?
Look at you!
You're eight months pregnant
And you still have so much
left to plan for this birth.
That baby is coming whether
you're ready for it or not.
- Well, it's not like
this is what I wanted.
After this year, it's just-
- no, I know.
- And I had to get
Lisa up to speed,
And she's getting there.
- Lisa?
I mean, come on, I love her,
but four jobs in four years?
That girl is flaky.
- She needed a job
And I needed someone
I could trust
To look after the store
whilst I'm on maternity.
Why are you stressing
me out even more?
I would love to take it easy
And prepare for the
biggest moment of my life.
It's just not
working out that way.
- Come on, Tyler!
- Good job!
- Oh, you're doing so well.
I'm so proud of you.
Look, mom would want
you to be excited
And putting your baby first.
And I keep telling you, just
do it my way, all right?
Have the home birth.
It is honestly the
best thing I ever did.
What's better than the
comfort of our family home?
All right, just do it, Hailey.
Mom went in for foot surgery
And she died from
the anesthetic.
So if you can avoid
hospitals, you should.
You can even use the
same doula that I had.
Oh, that would be so beautiful!
Hey, ref, come on!
Are you seeing all of this?!
Her name is Riley.
Her company's called
heavenly sent.
Just meet with her
and then decide.
Yes, go Tyler!
all right, here we go.
- What does it say?
- All right, hold on, hold on.
"it's better to be
the head of a chicken
"than the tail of an ox."
Oh!
- I don't know what that means.
- I have no idea.
- My sexy chicken.
- I would be a sexy chicken.
All right, your turn.
- Okay.
My turn.
"nothing in the world
is more dangerous
"than sincere ignorance."
- Hmm.
- Maybe it's a sign
I should call Riley.
- It's not a sign,
it's a cookie.
- A fortune cookie.
You know, my mom won't be there,
And she'll be like my support?
- Well, haven't I
been there enough?
- You're a great husband.
- Uh-oh.
There's a but.
there's no but.
Okay, but it's different.
- Ah.
- This is an experience
only women understand.
- Yeah, but a home birth?
my sister did it.
- Well, you're less than
two months away, baby.
I mean, is that even enough time
To find a doula and prepare?
- I don't know.
But I don't want a labor
That's gonna put me
off having more kids.
And mom's home makes me feel
safe, even if she's not here.
- Okay.
Okay, okay, okay.
Fine.
Get a doula.
Whatever it takes to
start filling this home
With as many little Joes and
little Haileys as possible,
Mainly little Haileys.
And make this home
ours, you know?
New memories.
I'm looking for a certain spot.
Where is it?
- No!
- I think I found it.
- Stop!
- Yeah, that's it.
- Stop!
that's it.
- Hi there, it's
Hailey kendricks.
I wanted to ask about
your doula, Riley,
And her availability please.
If you could please
give me a call back.
I will also send an email.
Thanks.
"out of office until may 22nd."
Great.
- Breathing in.
And exhale out.
Again, breathing in.
And exhale out.
Placing one hand on your
knee and one hand behind you.
- Hi, sorry I'm late.
The traffic is a nightmare.
ladies.
- Sorry.
This feels so good on my back.
Baby's getting heavy.
- Yeah, it's getting
pretty uncomfortable now.
- How far along are you?
- 33 weeks.
- My due date's August 4th.
- Shh!
- Congratulations.
- Boy or girl?
- Girl.
- Same.
Congratulations.
I'm jade.
- Hailey.
- Great to meet you.
- Oh, you too!
I saw it in the yoga studio
And it just really
stood out to me.
Labor coaching?
I didn't even know that existed.
So, glad you found
the house okay.
I'm quite nervous
about this,
So thank you for coming
at such short notice.
- This is a first for me.
Normally expectant mothers are-
- More prepared?
- No, just earlier.
Well, it's been the shortest
months of my life.
It was my sister who thought
maybe I need more support...
And a fortune cookie.
- My job is to make
you feel comfortable.
It's the most natural
thing on earth.
I respect your birth plan and-
- A birth plan?
- Have you thought about it?
To have a baby?
- There are lots of
other factors to consider
Like pain medication and
what music you want playing.
- Oh, a playlist.
Okay.
Well, I want to avoid
pain medication.
No epidural.
Also, I have a deep
fear of hospitals.
- Birth is a physiological
process, not a medical one.
There are fewer c-sections
and medical interventions
With home births because you
and the baby are less stressed.
And it's not without risk.
But if anything goes wrong,
You can be in a
hospital within minutes.
I can massage your shoulders,
We can set up some
music, scented candles.
- Sounds more like
a day at the spa.
- I'm not saying it
won't be painful,
But we can take away the fear.
Water births are
increasingly popular.
The warm water's great
for contractions.
I wish I'd met you
earlier.
My husband asked if
you had any references.
- Out of respect to my clients,
I don't like to share
personal information.
- Would it be possible to
ask a couple for me please?
I'd love to hear about
their experiences.
Oh, but this is great.
You know, I'm
excited.
- Yes, well, usually I'd
like many more sessions
For pain management training.
- Training?
- And bonding time,
breastfeeding,
Creating an exercise regiment.
There's a lot to get through.
- Yeah.
- Plus, due to the reduced
amount of sessions,
I will drop my fee by
half while still making up
As many sessions as
possible, of course.
- How about Friday afternoon?
Hey.
Good, yeah.
Just the heartburn now.
I don't know why
they call it that.
It's nowhere-
I think someone's upstairs.
- Are you serious?
Baby, if you're serious,
get out of there now.
Call the police, okay?
I mean it.
Hailey.
Hailey, please answer me.
Hailey.
Say something.
- I musta left the door open.
I feel so stupid.
- Are you sure?
- I'm fine, I'm just...
Just a little jumpy.
- Be careful, I love you.
- Bye.
It's amazing.
Isn't it?
A miracle.
- I can't really
believe she is in here.
the nursery looks great.
- I can't wait to be a mom.
Just the birth I'm afraid of.
- That's normal.
How long have you
wanted a baby for?
- Ever since we got married,
We talked about
starting a family.
- And your husband's supportive?
He'll help with the baby?
- Yeah.
Yeah, he's excited.
- Anxiety is the biggest cause
of postpartum depression.
It's a big change in your life.
You're gonna need your husband
by your side as a team.
- Yeah.
- My job is to make transition
as easy as possible,
But I'm
not here forever.
Now, for the fun part.
If you take a seat.
- Okay.
- Deep breaths in and out.
You'll be familiar from yoga.
- What are you doing?
- When the pain threshold
hits the next level,
Short shallow
breaths in your nose,
Out your mouth like this.
- Ow!
- Focus.
Breathe through the pain.
Harder.
- Stop.
- Harder.
- Stop.
- Harder.
- Stop!
- That's okay, we'll
just do it again.
- What?
- Here's a list of
items that you'll need
Before the baby arrives.
- Hey!
Jade!
It's Hailey, from yoga.
- Hi!
How are you?
- Good, how are you?
- Ugh, the back pain is
something else, isn't it?
- I know.
- Nearly there, though.
- Yeah, time has
gone by so fast.
Have you gotten
everything ready?
- I think so.
- Well, I'm out on
strict orders today.
- I found this.
Isn't it so cute?
Oh, that is
adorable!
Did you go to fenton state?
- I didn't, my partner.
- My husband, Joe, he did too.
- Oh!
Well, I better get outta here
before I max out my card.
Baby stuff is so expensive,
yet I want it all.
I was thinking of
grabbing a smoothie.
Do you wanna join me?
- Well, I'd love to,
but I've got all this-
- Oh, just a quick drink.
It's important to stay hydrated.
- Okay, yeah.
I mean, they do not tell you
half the information you need.
The smoothie tasted
like shoe polish.
The doctor two weeks later
told me it was a symptom.
I had no idea.
I feel like I have to apologize
to this poor guy.
Thank you.
- Pregnancy's rough.
Honestly, guys have no
idea what we go through.
- No idea.
So, your husband,
how's he coping
With all your crazy symptoms?
- The father isn't
in the picture.
But I am hoping he'll step
up when the time comes.
- Oh.
Sorry, I feel like
such an idiot now.
- No!
- No, that was so insensitive.
I don't know why
I even asked that.
Do not worry.
Your husband must be so pumped.
- Yeah, yeah, he is.
He's still getting used to the
whole doula home birth thing.
- That is exactly what I want!
A home birth.
I just haven't found
the right midwife yet.
- Well, I could
give you her details
Bea Wexford.
She's great.
- That would be great!
- Sure!
- Thank you.
A natural birth is
just so beautiful,
When you see new life
enter this world.
- You haven't, have you?
- Oh yeah, a ton.
I've even delivered quintuplets.
- You're kidding.
Please tell me you're kidding.
Oh, wait.
Wait, so you're a midwife.
- No, I deliver
kittens and puppies.
- Oh!
- I'm a vet.
But delivering babies
isn't so different.
- That is so cool.
Okay, so you're a
doctor and you...
You don't want a hospital birth?
- I've just seen what
goes on behind the scenes,
The amount of times
patients get sicker
After they're admitted.
But I'm already on
maternity leave.
The second the smell of
blood made me nauseous,
I knew I was not a
lotta use at work.
- Oh, I am sorry.
My meeting overran.
This client is a nightmare.
- Sorry, I couldn't wait.
- That's all right.
- I was starving.
- How'd it go with
the doula today?
- Good!
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
We did some more
breathing exercises.
- Is that normal?
- Uh-huh.
I lasted an entire 45
seconds without losing it.
I think if I just stay in
my head, it might just work.
Baby, I do not envy you.
I swear, if men
had to give birth,
There would be a lot
more drugs and surrogacy.
- Well, as much as I would love
to switch places, we can't.
So, I guess it's only fair,
one year on diaper duty?
- Oh, an entire year?
Okay, you're right,
two.
Oh, now it's gone
up to two.
hi!
you found
the house okay?
- Great, yeah.
Yeah.
Nice place!
- Thanks.
How are you feeling today?
- Better.
Just wish I could get
a good night's sleep.
- I have an amazing
tip to help you sleep.
- It's not more pinching, is it?
no.
It's all about
pillows, lots of them.
Take a seat.
Can I have your jacket?
ah, thanks.
- Would you like some water?
- Oh, yes please.
- That's today's itinerary,
Which is going to
focus on breastfeeding.
First off, your phone.
- My phone?
- I just need to install an app.
While your due date
is five weeks away,
She could arrive any day now.
- Really?
- Okay, it's called
get here now.
It sends me your exact location.
You just press this button here.
- See?
It's that simple.
- Okay.
- It opens up a map and
you can track me live.
I will come no matter where
I am or what I'm doing.
So, don't be shy.
As soon as you feel a twinge
Or anything you're
concerned about,
Press it.
- Okay.
- You can have
many false starts,
But eventually it'll
be the real thing.
- Okay, but...
What if you're with
another client?
- I'm very particular
about who I take on
So the due dates don't clash.
- Oh, yeah, those references.
Did you get a chance?
- I'm still waiting to hear
back, but I'll let you know.
oh, one moment.
- Hi.
- Hi.
I'm jade,
sorry I'm a bit early.
Hailey!
- Jade, hey!
Hi!
- Sorry, I'm early.
I got my timing wrong.
- No, no, you're fine.
You're so big.
- Have we met before?
I feel like I know
you from somewhere.
- No, I don't think so.
As you can see, I followed
up on your recommendation
And got in touch with bea.
- Yes.
Well, we are in the middle
of a session, so maybe-
- No, no, it's not
a problem, really.
I've gotta get back
to the store anyway,
So I'll just leave
you guys to it.
- No, no, don't go yet.
I feel bad.
- Really, it's fine.
Would you mind
getting my jacket?
Sorry, I've got so
much to do anyway.
Plus, you need a
doula as much as me.
- Well, let me take
you out for some decaf
And thank you sometime.
After yoga tomorrow?
- Decaf?
Oh, the sacrifices we
make for our babies.
Sounds great, thanks.
- Can we meet up Friday then?
actually,
I'm meeting my sister.
How about Saturday?
Lisa!
- Oh, I didn't
mean to bother you,
But I didn't know what to do.
- You had to text, otherwise
you couldn't lock up.
- I put them down somewhere,
But I just don't
know where it went.
- They'll show up when
you least expect it.
- I'm gonna put these
with my house keys
So they'll be harder to lose.
Now go home and
put your feet up.
- You know what?
I think I'm gonna stick
around a bit longer.
- Great class today.
- Yeah, it was!
How'd it go with bea?
- Uh...
- Not for you?
Oh, I'm sorry.
- No, don't be.
I just wouldn't trust
her with my baby.
She's so young
and inexperienced.
You're very brave to
be her first client.
She did tell you that, right?
No one's ever hired her.
- Actually, no, she didn't.
- She should've told you.
Us moms need to stick together.
Why don't we go out for lunch
And we can look through a
list of respected doulas?
- I can't.
Gotta head back to the store.
- Still haven't switch off, huh?
- Hailey, thank you so
much for the invitation.
I'd love to come.
- Great, see you there!
You should come.
My baby shower, this Saturday.
- No, don't feel you
have to invite me.
- No, I don't,
you're very welcome.
Us moms need to stick together.
- Hey, honey, I'm just
heading back for my laptop.
I'll see you soon, okay?
Love you, bye.

Say hi!
Hi!
happy baby
shower, Hailey.
- Oh, Lisa, thank you!
That is amazing!
this is Cole.
- Oh, look at him!
Oh.
- I'm just gonna be
one second, thanks.
- Hey, buddy!
- How are you?
- Thanks for coming.
- Thank you for inviting me.
- I wanted to ask you something.
Apparently, I'm
your first client?
- Um...
Who said that?
- That doesn't matter.
Okay, you are my first,
But for my business.
I graduated top of my class
in nursing and midwifery.
And I promise you, I'm the
best person for this job.
- Why didn't you tell me?
- Who wants to be
a doula's first?
- Me.
Everyone has their first.
I think it might
be kinda special.
You'll never forget my
little girl, will you?
- No.
I really won't.
- I bet Joe is hating
missing out on all of this.
Let's make him
jealous, shall we?
Come on.
Big smiles.
- Jade!
Come here!
Put it higher.
Oh, there we go.
- Oh, okay.
Hi, it's Hailey.
Are you sure this is for me?
- I'm sure it's all a mistake.
Lisa.
- One second, okay?
Yeah?
- I just got off the phone
with our insurance company
About a claim for smoke damage.
Do you know anything about this?
- I told them to call me.
I didn't want them to
bother you with it.
- Wait, I'm confused.
There's smoke damage?
- No.
Okay, I handled it.
There was just a small incident,
But I took care
of it, I promise,
So don't worry.
- Lisa.
- I don't know, I musta left
the iron on or something.
There was just like...
A small fire.
- Okay, so now I gotta
go back to the store.
- No, Hailey, this
is your baby shower.
- You know what, Lisa?
You should have told me.
We gotta wrap this up.
You know I'm not gonna enjoy
myself until I check it out.
- No.
Everything's fine, really!
- Sorry, ladies.
- Where are you?
I've been waiting for hours.
I can't make it tonight.
It's not a good time.
- When then?
soon.
Soon.
- It was my baby shower!
I was supposed to
switch off from work.
Do I look switched off?!
no.
- Honey, have you seen
my mom's earrings?
I mean, I always keep them here.
I just...
I can't lose them.
I mean, I must be going crazy.
- Hey, all right, hey.
- I'm losing my mind!
- Take a breath.
This is a clearly a sign that
you've taken on way too much.
What you need to do is stay
home, take care of yourself.
- Why is everyone telling me
what I should and shouldn't do?
Lisa should've told me.
I would've sorted
it there and then.
- If you don't want me to go
on this site visit, just say.
- It's not like
you have a choice.
- Soon, I am going to be
spending all of my time
Making this our family home.
- This is our home.
- You know what I mean.
Adding some Kendrick
touches to it.
Make it ours.
- I couldn't sell mom's house.
- All right, you know what?
I'm gonna call up ted.
I'm gonna tell him to take
my spot because clearly-
- No, don't, you
know you've gotta go.
I'm fine.
Really, I mean it.
- So...
You are not going to
miss your husband, hmm?
- A little bit.
- A little bit?
- Yeah.
Are you gonna miss
your big fat wife?
- This machine's
fantastic, isn't it?
Women use it right
through to pushing.
Completely natural, doesn't
harm you or the baby.
Okay, here's the first setting.
Should feel that
twitching sensation.
You feel that?
- Yep, yep, I'm feeling that.
- So, you can keep turning it
up as the labor progresses.
- Okay.
your back pain
should be easing now.
- Yeah.
- And then you have this.
It gives you a
sudden electric surge
When you have a bad contraction.
- Okay.
- Higher.
Higher.
Higher.
Higher.
Higher.
oh!
Are you okay?!
- Ow!
What happened?!
- Oh my god.
I don't know, this has
never happened to me before!
One second!
- Okay.
I think I'm just gonna
use your restroom.
- One of them is
gonna be my baby.
oh.
- I'm adopting.
- Congratulations.
- I can't have children; well,
in the traditional sense,
So I'm gonna give a
child a loving home.
It's a genetic condition.
I've known since I was little.
I'm fine with it, though.
That's why I love this job.
To be part of
someone's pregnancy
In some way is really special.
To be the first one
to hold that baby
When they leave their mother
And start the rest
of their lives.
I can catch
the next flight out.
I can be home by tonight.
- No, baby, I'm fine.
- All right, well I hope
you're not thinking of jumping
Because I don't want
you getting a head start
On labor without me.
- Maybe.
I'll see you tomorrow.
Nicole!
Looks like you're having
more fun than Tyler.
- Is Joe okay?
- Joe's still pushing
me to ditch that doula.
- It's not too late.
- You've had a change of heart.
I thought you were all,
"natural is beautiful."
- No, I am, but not
if she's a psycho.
- I like her.
- Hey, you okay?
Sit down.
- Just a little Braxton hicks.
- You're making me nervous.
- Okay.
- Still can't find
mom's earrings?
- My head's all over the place
since the shop nearly burned.
- You try so hard to
see the good in people
And you keep digging
deeper and deeper,
And with some people
it's just not there.
I just don't trust bea.
Look, just be careful, okay?
I don't wanna lose you too.
- I can't have children.
I'm gonna give a
child a loving home.
To be the first
one to hold a baby
When they leave
their mother's arms
And start the rest
of their lives.
One of them is gonna be my baby.
Good job, Hailey!
You lasted an entire minute!
You're gonna ace this.
Is everything okay?
- Just overtired.
- If this is about
yesterday, I'm so sorry.
The machine-
- no, you're fine.
- I was hoping I might
be able to meet Joe soon.
- I know.
I know, he's just
overloaded with work.
- Yeah, he seems to be.
Hailey, I think I
know what's going on.
- What?
- Joe's left you.
You're scared and
afraid, and that's okay.
I'm here.
- No!
He's just out of
town returning late.
What, no!
- Okay.
I hope to meet him soon.
And the sooner the better.
No time for small
talk during labor.
Just gonna go get some
swaddling blankets from the car.
what were
these doing in your purse?
- I have no idea.
- My mom's earrings,
Bracelet, my jewelry!
- I have no idea.
- Bea, you need to leave.
- Okay, I'll just
come back later.
- No, don't come back.
I don't wanna see you again!
- You're weeks away and we
have so many more sessions.
- Bea, you're fired!
- Hi.
- Hi.
- How you doing?
- Not bad.
I mean, the kicks are more
like complete rolls now.
I think she takes after you.
Future soccer player.
Here.
- Wha?
Wow!
Look at her little hands!
- Isn't it amazing?
- You need anything?
Money or, I don't know, diapers?
- Just more time with you.
- Jade, I...
- We're having a baby.
- I know, and I'm gonna be
there, but just for her, okay?
There's no "we".
- Why, you haven't
even given us a chance.
- Jade.
I'm trying to be sensitive here,
But it was a
one-time thing, okay?
Nothing more.
I've told you, I love my wife.
- You treat me like I'm
some sort of filthy...
I'm the mother of your child.
- I'm sorry, I'm
sorry, don't get upset.
- You can't keep your
life separate, Caleb.
That night, you made a
decision to be with me
And now our lives are
bound together forever.
We're gonna be parents!
- Just...
Just call me when the
baby arrives, all right?
take care
of yourself, jade.
- Baby...
I'm so sorry.
- You said you'd
be home by lunch.
Where were you?
- I had to swing by
the office first.
- Instead of seeing your wife?
Your pregnant wife?
- No, I am sorry.
I trusted her.
- Look.
Maybe this is for
the best, you know?
- How?!
I'm due in a month!
I have no one!
I can't do this.
- Hey.
- I can't do this.
yes you
can, you have me.
- That's the one thing
she did get right.
You're never here.
I share you with work.
- Look, you are obsessed
with your work too, baby.
I mean, that's just what we do.
- But I can't anymore!
My life's changing so
much and yours isn't.
- You're right.
You're right.
Look, from now on, I am
going to be here for you.
You are the most
important thing in my life
And you aren't doing this alone.
Hey, look at me.
We're gonna be okay.
- I'm scared.
- I know.
your baby
looks very healthy.
You're doing a great job, mommy.
- Wow.
That's the head.
Wow.
- I'm going to let you clean up
And I'll see you at the front
desk for copies of your scans.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
See, I told you,
everything's fine.
- Good.
- She's perfect.
- Joe.
I want the home birth.
I know it didn't
work out with bea,
But I don't wanna
go into a hospital
Unless it's an emergency.
It's what my mom would want.
- Okay.
Whatever you want.
- Hailey, what are
you doing here?
- Well, at least somebody was.
If you need to head out,
You gotta tell me
so I can get cover.
- Well, you're not even
supposed to be working.
You're supposed to relax.
- Excuse me for not finding
any of this relaxing.
Missing keys, the shop
nearly burning down,
Finding it shut during in
the busiest time of the day.
- Well, I'm sorry I'm not
as perfect as you, Hailey.
- That's not fair.
I gave you a chance when
others said I shouldn't
Because I believed in you.
And now, this is
how you repay me.
- Wow.
Wow.
it's
a perfect sunny Sunday
In California.
In your car, home, or at work,
Thanks for choosing us
to join you on pulse 73.
- Hailey.
- Huh?
- That better be for Joe.
You know Camembert
isn't good for the baby.
- Oh!
Oh, yeah.
Yeah it is.
How are you doing?
- Partly counting down the days
And partly wishing
the day never comes.
- Oh, yeah, I know.
- How's Joe?
- He's good.
He's good, yeah.
How are things
with the boyfriend?
Any better?
- He's really busy with work,
Which is tough.
You know, being on your own.
Late nights, work trips.
I'm sure you know
what that's like.
- Yeah.
- What does Joe do again?
- He's an architect
at Lodwell's.
- Oh.
- I'm sorry, I think
you told me, but-
- An engineer.
Don't ask me exactly
what he engineers,
But gives him a good
excuse not to be home much,
Which is why us ladies
have to stick together.
How's that girl anyway, bea?
- It didn't work out.
- Do you still
want a home birth?
- Well, I'd like to, but
I'm running outta time.
- Let me do it.
I've delivered
hundreds of babies.
- Well, you know, it's
probably at this stage
Not even worth it anymore.
- I'm joking.
Your face!
- This just isn't exactly how
I envisioned my pregnancy.
- I say good riddance.
She stole really personal
things for quick cash.
I mean, your mom's earrings?
She's a monster.
- It just doesn't
make any sense.
Why?
She's been calling me,
telling me I've got it wrong.
I don't know, maybe I should
give her a chance to explain.
- As a medical
professional, my advice:
Isn't it time to stop
with these witch doctors?
- That's a bit unfair.
- I mean, a doula's what?
Two hours online
for a certificate?
- Bea's a qualified midwife.
Many are.
- My point is let's be
each other's support.
I mean, who knows better
what you're going through
With the pregnancy
than me, right?
- Yeah.
- When the time comes, let a
doctor step in and do the rest,
But you don't need
to hire someone
To help you with the pregnancy.
That's what I'm here for.
Why don't we go for a
walk after work tomorrow?
Obviously, broken up with
breaks every five minutes.
Yeah.
Sorry, would you mind?
It's my sister.
I gotta take this.
I'll be one second, sorry.
- Please.
- Sorry, sorry.
Hey, Nicole?
- If you had just listened to
your sister from the start,
You wouldn't have
wasted all this time.
I don't know why Riley's
not getting back to me.
Maybe she's on sabbatical?
I mean, we talked about her
dreams of traveling around Asia,
But that's going
back seven years now.
Oh my god, how do I
have a seven-year-old?
- Good afternoon.
Are you here for an ultrasound?
- Hi, Lionel.
It's me, it's Nicole.
I don't know if you remember.
- How's Tyler doing?
- Oh, he's good!
He's so big now.
He's not my little baby anymore.
- Any brothers and sisters?
- Of course not.
I would've come to see
Riley, which is why I'm here.
Not for me, obviously,
But my sister is in
urgent need of a doula
And I want her to have the best.
- I guess you haven't heard?
I thought she was
getting better.
She was taking
time out to mourn.
mourn?
- A client.
Her baby died.
She went into labor early
And Riley couldn't
make it in time.
She blamed herself.
I knew she was struggling,
but I never thought-
- Riley always treated
me like I was family,
So she must've mourned
like it was her own.
- She called me minutes
before to leave a voicemail.
- I don't deserve you.
I love you.
- She sounded fine.
Said I didn't deserve her.
I'm not sure what I did,
but minutes later...
I'm sorry.
So, you need a doula?
- I had one, but
it didn't work out.
- Anyone I'd know?
- Bea?
Bea Wexford?
- Bea Wexford!
How's she doing?
- You know her?
- Know her?
She was my wife's prodigy.
I haven't seen her
since the funeral,
But I always really liked her.
Riley trained her up,
Had nothing but good
words to say about bea.
She stole from me.
- Thank you, that's the first
laugh I've had in weeks.
Bea inherited a fortune.
She doesn't need to work,
but she chose this career
To make a difference,
just like my wife did.
- There you are.
Can you get the drinks?
- We need to talk.
- Not tonight, I'm
not in the mood.
Let's just eat and
watch Netflix, okay?
- It can't wait.
- Unless you're telling
me we've won the lottery,
I don't wanna hear it.
Let's just save it for
the counselors next week.
I can't.
I don't know how to
say this.
- Did you sleep with someone?
- Oh my god.
Oh my god, I knew it!
I knew it!
Ugh!
- It was a one-night
stand, okay?
Just the once.
It was while we
were on our break.
It was a big mistake, okay?
I regretted it instantly.
I love you with all of my heart!
- You lied to me!
- I know.
- You lied to our counselor!
- I know.
- You lied to everyone!
What's the point
of any of it, huh?!
- Just didn't wanna lose you.
- Yeah right, whatever.
- There's more.
- What?
- The woman...
It's mine.
- What?
- It happened only
once, I swear!
If you let me, we
can work on this.
Okay, I'll do whatever you want.
I'll do whatever it takes,
just give me a chance!
why
didn't you tell me?
- I'm so, so angry with him.
- But you love him.
- I do.
For my sins.
- Do you know who?
- No.
He won't say.
But I have a right
to know, right?
I mean, I'm gonna be a stepmom.
- Do you need a couple of days
to figure it out with Caleb?
I feel good.
I can manage.
Please.
- Thanks.
- I just cannot believe
Caleb, you know?
I never thought he would
do something like this.
- Maybe they can work it out.
- Well, what about us?
Have we worked things out?
- I think you still have
some making up to do.
- Oh, I do?
Okay.
what's that?
Honey, what is that?
- Stay here, okay?
Stay right there.
I'm just
gonna go try this on.
- Okay, great.
Right over there.
- Your pick-me-up.
ah, thanks.
- You really shouldn't
be on your feet, okay?
- I just can't stop
thinking about it.
- I followed up with the police.
They said they're checking
the cameras for prints,
But it's gonna take a while.
You know, bea has been
in our house a lot.
- No.
- And with the jewelry-
- No, no, why would she?
- Will you promise me
You will let me take
care of this, okay?
I will find out
who's responsible.
- Hey, hey!
Hey!
Hey!
You can't face me?!
Are you a coward?!
- I don't have to talk to you!
- If that's my husband's baby,
We're gonna be seeing a
whole lot more of each other.
- I doubt that.
He's been desperate to
leave you for months.
He loves me.
- We're not letting some
loose tramp ruin our marriage.
- You're pathetic.
He doesn't want
anything to do with you!
- Oh my god.
Oh my god.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Here, let me help you.
What's that?
- Don't apologize, sweetheart.
- Hailey!
- Jade, hey.
- Hailey.
- How are you?
- Good, are you okay?
I didn't hear back
about getting together.
Thought we were supposed to be
each other's support system.
- Oh, yeah, sorry,
I meant to respond,
But I've just not
been feeling up to it.
- Well, then you need
me now more than ever,
With the birth in a month,
your hospital date so close,
Overcoming your fear after
what happened to your mom.
You can't go through this alone.
Bea stealing from you
and putting cameras
around your house.
- Were you after
anything in particular?
- Yes, something light and flowy
If you have anything that'd
go over this big thing.
Oh, that is perfect.
- Sure.
Here you go.
I'll take it.
- You don't wanna try it on?
- No, it's great.
- That'll be $65 please.
- Are you okay, Hailey?
- Yeah, it's just Braxton hicks.
- And you're still working?
- I'm fine.
Really.
- I hope so.
Us moms need to stick together.
Thanks.
- Nicole, she knew about mom,
about my fear of hospitals.
Dr. Jade Goddard.
- Your bouquet is ready.
- And that it was mom's
earrings that were stolen.
I never told her any of that.
She could only know
through the cameras.
- Good afternoon,
can I help you?
- I'd like to drop off
flowers for my friend.
Is jade Goddard
working at the moment?
- Oh, unfortunately no.
She's on maternity leave still.
- Actually, do you know
When she'll be
returning back to work?
- It's all a bit up
in the air right now,
As she didn't intend to leave
so suddenly a month ago.
It depends on how her
daughter progresses.
Have you met her
little girl yet?
- No.
- Poor thing.
I don't even know if she's
outta the preemie ward yet.
Well, thank god for her doula
Standing by her every
step of the way.
- I'll drop by her house later.
Thank you.
- Your flowers!
- Lionel, I need to know if
that was your wife's patient.
- It's her.
- She has a bump,
a very big bump,
And she's been showing
up at my yoga class
And she was at this-
- that's not possible.
- Do you know who the father was
Or any way to contact
him, any family?
I think she needs help.
"depression.
"vulnerable patient.
"fostered.
"no relationship
with foster family.
"highly abusive upbringing.
"possible PTSD.
"likely candidate
for postpartum.
"discussed father.
"Caleb."
- Honey?
Traffic was a nightmare,
But if we leave now,
we shouldn't be late.
I just
hope Lisa's okay.
- Still haven't heard anything?
- Sorry, Joe.
We can't have you
crashing the party.
Hello, bea.
Hoo!
Okay.
This is it.
Okay, this is it.
This is, this is definitely it.
It's happening.
I can do this.
I can do this, okay.
Come on, bea, I need you.
hey, you've reached Joe.
Please leave a message
after the tone.
- Hey, honey.
It's me.
It's time.
Okay, don't rush.
It could take hours.
And I've already called bea.
I know she was set up,
And we need her here with
us to do it together.
I know it's early, but I
think she's ready to meet us.
- We're having a baby.
We're having a baby.
Baby's here.
- No way, congratulations!
- Uh-huh, thank you.
- Good luck, good luck!
- Thank you, guys.
- Oh, Mr. Kendricks?
- Yeah.
Your wife's doula
is here to see you.
- Sorry, I didn't
mean to interrupt.
I just wanted to bring you a
cup of your favorite coffee
To apologize for everything.
- We don't have
time, we've gotta go.
- Go?
- Yeah, Hailey's in labor.
You didn't get the message?
- I didn't know, it's too soon.
Joe, your coffee.
- Look, I don't know what
to make of any of this,
But if my wife trusts you
then that's all that matters.
Just don't...
Don't do anything
thing to hurt her.
Hailey is everything to me.
I just wanna know that
her and my baby are safe.
- Here, Joe, your-
- hi, baby.
I'm on my way.
I've got the doula with me.
Just deep breaths, all right?
I love you so much.
Let's meet our baby.
- That baby is mine and Caleb's.
- What is he talking about?
Why isn't he here?!
- Hailey.
I need you to focus.
Your contractions
are coming on fast.
Get back into your body.
I'll speak to Joe, but,
Hailey, we don't have long.
- The water birth.
- We don't have time.
- It's too soon.
It's too soon!
- I can't do this!
It hurts too much!
Please, can we go to
the hospital, please?
- You can't, Hailey.
The baby's coming.
- Baby's coming?
- You've done such a good
job, now stay with me, okay?
I'll get it.
You're gonna feel like pushing,
But I need you to hold
on a little longer.
Can you do that for me?
I'll be right back.
- Joe?
Mr. Kendricks
is receiving care
At Bolton institute
emergency ward.
His condition is stable, but
please get here when you can.
- We'll see you soon.
was that Joe?
that was your sister.
She's on her way.
oh, okay, I'll wait.
- Hailey, if you wait any
longer, she'll be distressed.
- My baby?
- You've done
everything perfectly,
But now it's time to
meet your daughter.
Work with me here.
On the count of three,
you need to start pushing.
One...
Two...
Three.
okay, next one.
Push.
Push.
Push.
Okay, breathe.
Look at me, Hailey.
Okay?
I can't do it.
- You're doing it.
You're doing it.
You got it.
- I can't do it anymore.
- You got it.
- I can't do it anymore.
- You got it.
Hailey, look at me.
- I can't do it anymore.
- Look at me.
Hailey, look at me.
You can and you will.
You're gonna meet your daughter.
Three...
Two...
One...
Push.
She's here!
She's here!
She's here.
You did it, Hailey!
You did it!
- I got you.
I got you.
- Oh, just browsing, thanks.
Oh my gosh, how
far along are you?
33 weeks.
It's a girl.
- Oh, congratulations!
boy or girl?
- Girl.
- Same.
Congratulations.
I'm jade.
Hello, my precious dawn.
what's her name?
Mia.
Mia.
Oh, my mia.
Oh.
Hang on, I think he's here.
Honey?
- Hailey, we need to
go to the hospital.
- Is there something
wrong with the baby?
- No, no, she's perfect.
It's Joe.
He's been in an accident.
- No!
No!
- He's fine.
But we should go and see him
So he can meet his little girl.
- What happened?
- I don't know, I spoke with
the doctor and he's stable.
The best thing for Joe right now
Is for both his
girls to be safe,
So we're gonna go calmly
and slowly to the hospital.
How do you feel?
Do you think you could
stand in a shower
While I get the baby ready?
- I can go now, I can go now.
- Hailey, you'll feel
better and clean.
Okay?
You did such a good job, mommy.
You're gonna meet
your dad today.
I'm just gonna put
these in the car
And then I'll be right back.
- Oh, my precious dawn.
It's time to meet your daddy.
- No!
- Hailey?
- Where's my baby?
- Jade, it was jade!
Where's your phone?
Over there!
- I need the police
and an ambulance.
I was attacked and my
patient's baby was stolen.
I'm at 322 Longbourne drive.
Hurry please.
Hailey!
Where are you going?
- I need to save my baby,
I can't just wait here!
- You've just given birth, okay?
The police will come back
with your baby soon, okay?
I promise.
- Hi.
Where is she?
She's beautiful.
What have you named her?
- Dawn.
- Dawn.
Hey, why didn't you
call me in the hospital?
- I didn't have time.
I was busy giving birth.
- I'm amazed they let
you go home so soon.
- It was a smooth delivery.
She's perfect, look at her.
The only place she should be
is at home with her parents.
- What are those?
that must be them.
- I have to tell my husband.
He has to know.
- Here you go.
Let him know that
we're on our way, okay?
- Do you have anything
to help with the pain?
- Yes, I can get
some acetaminophen.
I'll be right back.
Yeah.
- I got us a beautiful
house in Texas.
It's a long drive, but dawn
will sleep most of the way.
- You're leaving town?
- Not me.
Us.
You, me, and dawn.
- What?
Jade.
I said I'd support the baby,
But I'm not gonna
be with you, okay?
Look, I need to find my wife.
She'll wanna meet her.
- Your wife?!
Your family is here.
- Shh.
We haven't even discussed this
And you haven't even
mentioned anything at all!
You just spring this on me.
You expect me to just
move to Texas with you?
Are you out of your mind?!
you expect me to
not hold you accountable
For your actions?
You slept with me.
That is our child!
I said I'd
support the baby, okay?
I am not going to be with you!
Okay, you must be exhausted
and emotional and-
- Caleb, we need to go now!
- Jade, that's enough.
It's okay, baby.
Come here.
There we go.
Hello?
Caleb?
oh my god!
Caleb, what's wrong?
It's Lisa, she's
dead!
The police rang and they want
me to come and identify her!
I don't know what
to do.
- It's probably better this way.
- What?!
- You can't drive like this.
You should stay here tonight
and we'll leave in the morning.
- What are you talking...
I don't under...
Did you want this to happen?
- Are you crazy?
- She was found in Carling park.
That's our park.
Did you?
Did you go and meet Lisa?
- Caleb.
- Answer me!
Did you go and meet Lisa?!
Jade.
- She wasn't that special.
- You killed my wife!
I'm sorry, baby.
Your head.
Hailey!
Hailey, do not touch my baby!
- Jade, please stop!
Let us go!
if you touch
her, I will kill you.
- I know you're in pain,
but this isn't the answer.
You're gonna have your own
beautiful, healthy baby.
Please!
- You have no idea what
I have been through.
Riley left my baby to die.
- You killed her, didn't you?
- It was all her fault.
- I know what happened.
There's nothing
anybody could've done.
It was a miscarriage.
Killing me won't bring your
girl back and you know that.
- She was my entire world.
The one chance at the
family I never had.
I just had to kill bea and Joe
And it just all
woulda been easy.
- You were fostered, right?
I know you're gonna
make a great mom.
I know because you're
never gonna let your child
Suffer like you did.
Jade.
Why don't we find someone
who can help you, you know?
You don't have to go
through this alone.
- I am not alone.
I have Caleb and dawn now.
- Jade, can we talk about this?
Jade?
Jade?
Jade?
Oh, little one.
We'll be home soon.
- Come on, Caleb, we
gotta get you outta here.
Come on.
What has she done to you?
What has she done to you?
Caleb, come on.
- As if a mother would give
up on her family that easily.
- Don't do this.
- You.
I didn't want it
to end like this.
Well, maybe I did.
- They'll lock you up.
You'll never see your baby.
- No one will find us and
dawn will have a loving home.
- She's my baby!
I'm mia's mom!
- You are not a mom!
You put my baby
in so much danger
With that stupid
pubescent doula.
They're not to be trusted,
And you kept working and
putting stress on my baby.
My baby!
Not even a fire would stop you.
You never put dawn first!
- And a good mom wouldn't
keep a gun in the house.
It's okay, baby.
It's okay.
Hey.
Hi.
Baby mia.
Isn't she beautiful?
- I shoulda been there.
- You were there.
All I saw was you there
with me, by my mom.
- Mr. And Mrs. Kendricks.
I just wanted to check
you're both recovering well.
- Do you have any news?
- We did an autopsy
on Riley bishop
And found traces
of pentobarbital,
A seizure medicine used
to euthanize animals.
We also found the same
traces in the coffee
That was in the flask your
husband was attacked with.
And with a murder
charge of Lisa young
Added to her rap sheet,
She'll never be free
to harm anyone again.
- Thank you.
tell me
if it's too soon.
- No, no, not at all.
We were hoping you'd
come, all right?
Come on, we're in here.
oh my gosh.
Wow.
Hi.
shall we open
some presents, mia?
- Sounds great, yes.
Oh, what do we have here?
- This is for you.
oh, who is this from?
You lucky thing.
"happy birthday."
- Mama.
