00:00They're here!
00:05I just don't want to find myself at 50 in some block association meeting trying to prevent the opening of a new bar.
00:11Richard, we're not turning 50 on East 6th Street.
00:14I'm 47.
00:20Having a baby is an immoral act. Overpopulation, climate change, rise of neo-fascism.
00:26Did you take your Valium?
00:27Yes.
00:28Why?
00:31They're trying a by any means necessary approach.
00:33I thought they were done with all that and they were trying to adopt.
00:35They're still doing that.
00:36They're like fertility junkies.
00:43Your best chance for success is with the donor egg.
00:46He's out of his mind.
00:47There's a lot of positives.
00:48Oh, it's easy for you to say. You'll have your genetic contribution and me, I'm just left out.
00:55Don't even...
01:01Mom, Uncle Richard and Aunt Rachel said I could stay at their place anytime I want to.
01:05They're not in any position to take care of anyone but themselves right now.
01:08My mom told me you guys had a lot going on, but I had no idea.
01:11This is a really bad time for me to be crashing here.
01:13No, no, no, no.
01:14Really? Because I have friends in Bushwick.
01:16We're so glad that you're here.
01:19So, how's college going?
01:21Everyone is so convinced of their own artistic promise.
01:24And I'm like, hey, my uncle is an award-winning theater genius and my aunt is a real-life playwright.
01:28And they're over 40 and still have to live in a rent-stabilized apartment on Avenue A
01:32with like drunks and graffiti in the front.
01:34So don't talk to me about the sacrifices you're making to be an artist, okay?
01:42We are doing everything we can.
01:45We are doing everything we can short of kidnapping to start a family.
01:51I don't think I even want to have a kid anymore.
01:57What do you think? Did you give your unborn child to these people?
02:00Totally. I wish you were my parents sometimes.
02:04I feel closer to you than everyone else in the family.
02:09Surprise! Happy anniversary.
02:15We need to take some responsibility for the situation.
02:18A lot of women have babies at 41.
02:20I thought I could too.
02:23You ready?
02:24One, two, three.
