Notes from the Underbelly

Lauren enlists Danny's help to surprise Andrew with VIP passes to the big concert festival in Palm Springs. The gesture is meant as a last hurrah gift before the baby arrives... and to offer a break from Andrew, who's been overly concerned the baby's about to be born with every grimace and expression of exasperation Lauren makes. Once at the festival, Lauren starts to experience what she thinks is indigestion, which prompts Andrew, when he sees their car is blocked, to commandeer a tour bus to get to the hospital. less

When Lauren dismisses Julie's recommendation for a pediatrician, Julie suddenly feels that her long-time friend doesn't trust her advice. Even though Lauren and Julie don't have a ton in common anymore, Lauren truly values Julie's friendship and goes to great extremes to prove it. Meanwhile, Danny confesses to Andrew that their one-time basketball league has not actually disbanded -- they just hated playing with Andrew because he was overly-aggressive. less

It seems everything is beginning to remind Lauren of the weight she's gained in the six months she's been pregnant, leaving her feeling decidedly un-sexy. Cooper, Julie and Andrew do whatever they can to help her out of her funk. Meanwhile, Danny asks Julie if he can borrow her baby to attract women in the park. less

When Lauren and Andrew make an appointment with a lawyer to create their will, they're faced with the important decision of choosing Olivia's legal guardian should anything happen to them. After Julie and Eric turn them down because they're "booked," they decide to ask their neighbors, a couple they hate for being too perfect -- until it dawns on them what great guardians they'd make. Lauren and Andrew quickly devise a plan to win them over, but it's abruptly spoiled when an overly eager Andrew "pops the question" too soon. Lauren tries to save Andrew from his mishap, only to make things worse with her poor choice of words. less
