1
The thing about pregnancy is people treat you differently.
2
Like you're a kid almost.
3
They lose all sense of boundaries.
4
They start acting weird, telling you things that clearly aren't true.
5
I know it sounds nuts, but I think Dwight is the only one who's telling me the truth.
6
Dwight, am I hot right now?
7
Why would I or anyone else think that you're hot right now?
8
I can't impregnate you, and that's the driving force between male-female attraction.
9
What about before?
10
Was I attractive before?
11
Meh.
12
You were at your most attractive when you were 24, with a slight gradual decline.
13
And a steep drop-off when you got pregnant for the first time.
14
Gradual recovery and, uh...
15
Well, now, obviously, you're at an all-time low.
16
Hmm.
17
I think Jim's lying to me about not being attracted to Kathy.
18
You think Jim's lying?
19
That's so cute.
20
I know he's lying.
21
Five bucks if you can get him to admit it.
22
Done.
23
I never touch a pregnant woman.
24
Yep, that's the Dwight I need.
