“We are Family”
Everyone is at Sharon’s house waiting for the Dr. to call with the test results concerning TJ biological father. They decided to spend the weekend there to introduce TJ to his new found family.
Sharon
Lisa hates me because I'm happy. I know mom and dad are rolling over in their grave.
Tim
I wish I can do something to change this situation.
Sharon
No baby we good we just have to take care of Jr. first.
Aunt Ethel
I gave the doctor my cell number. I already explained everything to TJ. My girlfriend will be dropping him off from camp soon.
Sharon
ARRR Poor thing I hate putting him through all of this.
Aunt Ethel
No no sweetie its good that you brought this to my attention as soon as you were aware. So Lisa can be the only bad guy.
Tim
If I knew I had a son I would had contacted him immediately.
Aunt Ethel
As soon as Lisa turned 18 she should had contacted him and told you guys about him. I didn't want to force her hand and I promised your parents I will not tell anyone unless it was an emergency. He is really such a well mannered child. He is a pleasure to have around.
Sharon
Were mom and dad ok with her contacting him?
Aunt Ethel
No but I'm your Aunt Ethel I always have you girls back. Who brought you guys bras and cell phones after being told not to by your mom. It was our little secret right? ( Aunt Ethel winks!) Lisa could had visited whenever she wanted for as long as she wanted and your mom would had never known. And I am sure you guys would had kept her secret.
Sharon
I don't think Lisa wants a son. I mean she knows she can't raise a child by herself. The only reason she told us about him is to hurt me and she did. She really did!
Tim
Baby don't look at it like that. Whether he's my son or my nephew he is a blessing to this family.
Sharon
That's my guy ! Aunt Ethel did I pick a great guy or what?
Aunt Ethel
Sweetie you can't make a bad decision if you tried.
The phone rings and Sharon answers …It’s Lisa.
Lisa
I'm sorry we running late is he there yet?
Sharon
No not yet? We still waiting on the Dr. to call ...Wait a minute he is calling now. Hold on!
Aunt Ethel
Hello..huh huh ok yes ...thank you much...(pause) Tim is not the father !!
Sharon
That Little bitch!! She said she was a virgin.
Tim
( looks of disappointment) He is not my son??
Sharon
Hello Lisa, you still there?
Lisa
(Nervously)Yes
Sharon
The test proves Tim is not TJ's father.
Lisa
Wow really? Is that what he calls himself?
Sharon
Yes, who the hell is his father Lisa?
Lisa
I don't know. You are right I slept with another guy the same night I slept with Tim. Someone I met in the bar and I never saw him again. I can't remember his name. We will be there soon…bye
Lisa and Sharon hang up then Lisa turns to John.
John
What do you mean he's not Tim's son?
Lisa
Sharon says he wasn't according to the phone call Aunt Ethel got from the Dr.
John
Do you believe her?
Lisa
