Kyle
What did the stick say?
Kyle
Come on, Ang. Talk to me.
Angie
It’s positive — I’m pregnant.
Kyle
This doesn’t change anything.
Angie
How can you say that?
Angie
My dad is getting sworn in as the President today.
Angie
And his underage, unmarried daughter is knocked up.
Angie
Do you realize what his opponents can do with that?
Kyle
You know I do. My family’s been playing the political game way longer than yours has.
Angie
Yeah, I know, sorry.
Angie
I just don’t even know how to process this.
Angie
I have so many plans for my future—
Angie
So many things I’ve been working toward.
Angie
And “teen mom” is just NOT on that list.
Angie
You can’t tell me this doesn’t change everything for us, because it does.
Kyle
Don’t worry. We’ll take care of this.
Angie
I can’t talk right now.
Angie
My stylist is here.
Kyle
Look, I know this is unexpected and scary.
Kyle
But try to put this out of your mind and have fun today.
Kyle
How many times do you get to be the star of an Inauguration Parade?
Angie
I’m just a doll who’s supposed to sit there and look pretty in the background.
Kyle
You’re more than that, Ang, and you know it.
Kyle
You’re Thorn Hollow’s Senior Class President…
Kyle
A future Supreme Court Justice…
Kyle
And MY future First Lady.
Angie
You can’t promise me any of that.
Angie
And I’d rather not be reminded of the life I could’ve had right now, thx.
Angie
Because it isn’t going to happen.
Kyle
What if I told you I was part of a secret society?
Kyle
One that specialized in making people’s political aspirations come true?
Kyle
They call themselves the Source.
Angie
Why are you telling me this?
Kyle
Because I think they can help us.
Kyle
Just think about it.
Kyle
One broken condom doesn’t have to completely derail our plans.
Angie
Easy for you to say. You’re not the one who’s pregnant.
Kyle
No, but I’m in this with you.
Kyle
Whatever happens — whatever we decide to do about this—
Angie
Thanks. Still really scary, tho.
Later that afternoon, during the Inauguration Parade, Angie gets a text from Kyle.
Kyle
I reached out to the Source.
Kyle
There’s a doctor who’s been a member since he was at Thorn Hollow.
Kyle
He can take care of it discreetly.
Kyle
No one will ever have to know you were pregnant.
Angie
You mean an abortion?
Kyle
Isn’t that what you want?
Angie
Why would they even set something like that up for us?
Kyle
Let’s just say they’ve invested a lot of time and money in me.
Angie
Nope, sorry. You’re going to need to give me more than that.
Angie
I’m not even sure I believe any of this.
Kyle
Ang, I’ve never lied to you. I wouldn’t start now.
Kyle
Look, the Source has been grooming me for years.
Kyle
They think I’ll be the perfect presidential candidate and promised to make it happen.
Kyle
But it’ll be pretty impossible if I become a dad at 17.
Angie
Kyle, I just found out I’m pregnant this morning.
Angie
I haven’t even had time to wrap my head around it.
Angie
I’m not going to do anything until I’ve had time to think it through.
Kyle
Okay. I’m not trying to pressure you, but we don’t have a lot of time.
Kyle
This doesn’t have to change anything.
Kyle
All of your future plans—
Kyle
Everything you’ve been working toward—
Kyle
It can all still happen.
Kyle
The Source can MAKE it happen.
Kyle
And no one will ever have to know this was even an issue.
Kyle
Just think about it, okay?
Angie thumbs through her contacts, pausing on her friend Will’s name.
Angie
I need to tell you something.
Will
Aren’t you supposed to be on TV right now?
Angie
I am. Aren’t you watching?
Will
We don’t drop everything to watch the Inauguration like they do in D.C.
Angie
I need to tell you something.
Angie
But you have to promise you won’t tell anyone, ever.
Angie
Swear on our friendship that you’ll take this secret to your grave.
Will
Maybe you shouldn’t tell me.
Angie
Because you won’t keep my secret?
Will
No, because it sounds like you’ll be stressed for the rest of your life if you tell anyone.
Angie
I have to talk to someone, and I don’t have anyone else I can trust.
Will
And you still trust me?
Will
You realize you haven’t texted me in months, right?
Angie
Isn’t that the point of best friends?
Angie
That we can pick up right where we left off?
Angie
I know I should’ve been better at keeping in touch.
Angie
Things just got so…crazy here.
Will
You don’t have to apologize. It’s not like I’ve been texting you either.
Will
It’s hard to keep up when your best friend moves to another state.
Will
Even harder when she becomes the president’s daughter as it’s happening.
Will
Alright, hit me with the secret.
Angie
You *promise* you won’t say anything?
Angie
And now that I’m the First Daughter, people will pay a lot of money for my secrets.
Will
You know me better than that.
Will
I would never say anything.
Will
You’re starting to freak me out.
Angie
…and I’m pretty sure I want to keep the baby.
