Danny: "Do you plan on having children?" I'm gonna check "no."
Mindy: Wait, why would you check "no"? I do want to have kids, four of 'em. Jaden, Madison, Brie, and the little one is Piper.
Danny: Are you kidding me with those names? You want a bunch of girls who work at the mall?
Mindy: More like they own the mall.
Danny: But you aren't married or even in a committed relationship.
Mindy: Yeah, but when I do get married, I'm gonna stay married, unlike you.
Danny: Okay, let's do the math of how these four kids are realistically gonna play out.
Mindy: Okay. Math away, nerd.
Danny: So let's say you spend the next year or so dating this guy. You're 33 then. You spend a year getting to know him, 34, two years living with him, 35, 36. Finally he proposes. You get married. Congratulations.
Mindy: Thank you.
Danny: You're 37. You start talking about having kids, but the maternity leave alone's enough to take you out of the game. You spent so long building your career, 38. Now your husband starts resenting how busy you are. He wants someone with more free time, but you don't want to stop working, so he moves out. Divorce is finalized, 40, but you're not worried because 40's the new 30, right? You immediately start dating again, this time online. Good news, you find a guy real quick and get married again. Got a couple kids already, though, so it takes some time to convince him. Do you manage to have one kid under the buzzer? Hey, anything can happen. Okay, now that we're done with the paperwork, are you ready for your exam?
[3x] Mindy: Are you?
Danny: Are you?
