I’m sorry, but you have the wrong number.

No, I don’t. This is Dr. Shelli Carter, right?

What do you want with me and my family?

Shelli
You don’t have a family?
Unknown Caller
Unknown Caller
I thought I would when I found out I was pregnant.
Unknown Caller

But when I told John…
Shelli
Shelli
You’re saying my husband is the father of your child?!
Unknown Caller
Unknown Caller
It’s no use calling John.
Shelli
Shelli
How did you know I was calling him?
Unknown Caller
Unknown Caller
His phone is on my nightstand.
Unknown Caller
Unknown Caller
He has you saved as 'My Sister Shelli,' by the way.
Unknown Caller
Unknown Caller
But now I know you’re his wife.
Shelli
Shelli
My husband is with you right now?
Shelli
Shelli
He told me he was showing a house out of town.

Just like he told me he wasn’t married.

He’s a liar, Shelli.

We’ve been married 5 years.

How long have you been in the picture?

Over a year.

But he quit coming around as much after I asked him to move in with me.
Unknown Caller
Unknown Caller
When I told him I wanted us to be a family.
Shelli
Shelli
I’m sorry, I can’t listen to this.

You both look happy.

Where is my husband now?

In the shower.
Unknown Caller
Unknown Caller
I’m really sorry.
Shelli
Shelli
That doesn’t mean anything to me.
Shelli
Shelli
It’s not your husband with another woman.
Shelli
Shelli
It’s not another woman carrying your husband’s child.
Shelli
Shelli
We found out I can’t have children over a year ago.
Shelli
Shelli
I guess it makes sense that he’d go looking elsewhere.
Unknown Caller
Unknown Caller
If I’d known he was married, I never would have given him a second look.
Unknown Caller

He lied to me just like he lied to you.
Shelli
Shelli
How far along are you?

Unknown Caller
I’m due in 2 weeks.

So why did you contact me?
Shelli

Just to rub salt in a wound?

We should confront him.

Together.

The empty parking lot behind Walmart.

I’ll meet you there in 10 minutes.

You already know who I am.

I guess you’ll be the one in the truck with my husband.

I wish we had met under better circumstances, Shelli.

We might have even been friends.

Yes. It’s me.

To start our family? Of course I am.

I gave her the full dose of morphine, just like you told me.
