A Zed & Two Noughts - Unexpected News of Parenthood Emerges
Alba Bewick:
I am about to become a mother, and you are about to become a father... or fathers.
Oswald Deuce:
You what?
Oliver Deuce:
You are?
Alba Bewick:
I am.
Oswald Deuce:
Good lord.
Oliver Deuce:
You can?
Alba Bewick:
Of course! Is leglessness a form of contraception?
Oswald Deuce:
I'm not sure.
Alba Bewick:
You're not sure!
Oswald Deuce:
I'm delighted!
Alba Bewick: [suspiciously]
You are delighted! A pregnant cripple and you are delighted? Think of what it will do to my sense of balance!
Oswald Deuce:
It might help! Give you more stability.
Alba Bewick:
Then you recommend it? Recommendation's one thing. A womb on crutches is another.
Oliver Deuce:
So... who's the father?
Alba Bewick:
Well, well, well. Why don't you discuss it between yourselves?
Oliver Deuce:
Why, don't you know?
Alba Bewick:
Grand dieu! Does an animal behaviorist need to ask such questions? As far as I'm concerned, you both are.
Oswald Deuce:
But you...
Alba Bewick: [smiling]
NO BUTS! You're brothers, aren't you? What's a few spermatozoa among brothers!
