GREG I know. I know that … yes. It just didn’t feel right … under the circumstances …

CARLY Is it me or her? (Beat.) Most people don’t ever get a choice … or maybe, like, one time in their lives … but here you are. You got the two of us now and both of us are asking you to … whatever. Pick one.

GREG I don’t wanna do that! I’m not … this is not how I wanted this to end up …!

CARLY Yeah, but it did! (Beat.) I’m not saying you lied … even though you kinda did—you paused or whatever—and I get that, I do … we all know each other so there’s a history and, and … then with the baby stuff happening … it’s a mess. (Takes his hand.) I understand, Greg … and I’m not yelling or mad at you, but you need to tell me what’s going on.

So tell me what’s in your head./ Just say it …

CARLY …/ I’d take care of it, I guess.

GREG What?/ Great. (Beat.) Wait … what’s that mean?

CARLY Greg. The hell do you think it means?

GREG You mean … I wouldn’t want you to do it all by yourself … I’d be there for you, I hope you know that. I totally would.

CARLY … ok … thank you …

GREG And I’ve been going over and over this in my head because I think you’re amazing … I really do, Carly, so … and I want … I’m feeling like …/ With what you’ve said …

CARLY Yeah?/ (Beat.) What?

GREG No, I’m not saying kids have to have two parents or, like, a father, even, because you’ve done an incredible job with being a … with Jennifer. (Beat.) But either way, I’d like to stay involved, whatever we do here. Either way./ Share custody, or …
