Synopsis[]

Peyton collapses in pain
Brooke storms out of her room and tells Julian that he has to go. As Julian asks why, Brooke says he should know why. He argues that most girls like what he done as Brooke says that she didn’t and tells him to get out. As Julian asks what the big deal is, Brooke says that she does not do what he done as she is a mom. Julian apologizes and says it won’t happen again as Brooke opens the door and asks him to promise and as Julian does, he says that he will never say that he loves her again, even though he does. Brooke shuts the door in fury as Julian repeats himself through the door and Brooke tells him to stop, which Julian finds hilarious. Millicent is looking at a picture of her and Mouth as he walks in. She tells him that she is picking her stuff up and she came as Skills said that he would be out all day. Mouth says that Skills told him to stay in and wait for the cable guy. Mouth realizes he unplugged the cable as he asks how New York is for Millicent. She tells him that it is great and she loves it as Mouth tells her about the movie. As she packs, Mouth says that he could have sent it to her but Millicent tells him that she is taking her car as she is staying on a permanent basis. As Mouth says that it will be goodbye then, Millicent says that it will be goodbye forever. Nathan arrives in an abandoned house and as he shouts for anyone, Haley jumps out on him. She kisses him and tells him that they have never spent this day apart so she has brought home to him. She leads him into a room that is done up with candles as she wishes him a happy anniversary. Meanwhile, Deb tells Jamie he can stay up late as it is just them two that night. She sets the table as she sees Jamie has set up an extra table. She asks if Orval is joining them tonight as Jamie says it is not for Orval. The door goes and Dan walks in and tells Deb she is looking old. Jamie runs up and hugs his grandfather and as Deb asks why he is there, Jamie says that he invited him. Lucas is ready to show Peyton a surprise he has got her and has been working on all night. He asks if she is ready, but Peyton says she is not. Lucas notices she is pale and asks if she has morning sickness, but Peyton collapses to the floor in pain.
The Surprise

Peyton and Lucas are given heartbreaking news
Peyton and Lucas get home and both look upset. Lucas tells her that they are going to bed as Peyton asks to see the surprise. Lucas is a lot more hesitant now saying it is not a good idea, but Peyton walks to the room. She opens it to see that Lucas has decorated his old room into a nursery with toys and a crib in it. He reminds Peyton it is their house now as Peyton looks around saying it is beautiful. She picks up a piece of baby’s clothing and reads it which says ‘I love my mommy.’ She begins to cry and walks past Lucas asking for a minute. As she walks out, Lucas hits the wall in frustration. As he goes to see what she is doing as Peyton tells him that they had not picked out names yet. She tells him that she was thinking of Anna for a girl, after her mother. Lucas tells her not to do it to herself as Peyton says she would like to call her child Sawyer if it was a boy. Lucas sits down next to her telling her that they have to take a few days to process the news. Peyton says that she thinks about all the times she worried about having the baby and thought she did not want it. Lucas assures her that the universe does not punish people, it does not work like that and Peyton agrees with him and says that she cannot do it. Lucas reminds her that the doctor said that if she has the baby, she could die and Peyton tells him that it does not matter as she is having the baby. She goes to clean up as Lucas joins her. He tells her that the doctor said that there was a very good chance that she could die and they could lose the baby anyway. He says that they can think about the decision before they go back. Peyton sounds disgusted as she reminds him that they will go back for an abortion. Lucas is furious and yells that it is not an abortion, but Peyton assures him it is. He says that no one will say it, but Peyton tells him it is still an abortion. She smashes a plate in anger and tells Lucas that if he would like to talk about it to call it an abortion. As Lucas wonders how it could happen in a month, Peyton confesses that she had some pain earlier in the pregnancy and she went to the doctors who said it was nothing. Lucas is mad that she did not say anything to him and tells her it is not nothing but Peyton asks if it is and what if they both survive. Annoyed again, Lucas tells her that if he has to, he will be the bad guy. He tells her that if the baby means that he will lose her, then they will end it. Peyton tells him that the baby is not an it and tells him that she wants him to realize it is a real child, their child. Lucas says that they can try again or even adopt like she was. Peyton agrees, but tells him that she wants the child to look like them and after all, she is carrying a life. Lucas says that he does not care about a child looking like him, he cares about a child being brought up with a mother as look at what it did to her. Peyton is shocked at how he is trying to guilt trip her into the abortion as Lucas says that he is guilt tripping her and will continue to if it keeps her alive. Peyton calls him a dick as Lucas agrees that he is.

Lucas feels his child kicking
Lucas goes into the nursery and begins taking down stuff on the wall. Peyton yells at him to stop and drags him off the wall. Lucas comments on how she sounds like a mom as Peyton says she is one. As she says this, Lucas is overcome by sorrow. He tells her about a dream he had and in it she was hurt. He tells her that he cannot live without her. He says that even though she saves that he is always saving her, he cannot save her from this. Peyton remind him of all the stuff they have survived and says that they should not let doctors lay odds on them. She tells him that even if she does die, he will be okay and can raise the child on his own, like Karen did with him. Lucas asks how he is supposed to feel towards that child if it kills her and Peyton says that he is not that person and that he will never be on his own, he has all their friends. She says that he would even be found hot by some girls, like Jake Jagielski did. Her joke is not laughed at as Lucas asks how she can joke, Peyton admits it is because she is scared about their fate. She says that maybe the whole point of her and him is to lead them to the point they are at as maybe the life they have created could change the world. Lucas refuses to accept that their story does not have a good ending as Peyton assures him that their story already has the greatest ending, because they are together. Lucas tells her that he needs to know they are making the right choice as Peyton jumps in what seems to be pain. Lucas sits her down and goes to ring an ambulance as Peyton tells him not to. She tells him that he, the baby, is kicking hard and they feel their child kicking. Lucas begins to cry as Peyton tells him that it is okay for him to love the baby as it does not mean he does not love her. As she says this, Lucas tells her that he cannot live without her, but Peyton says that he does not have to as she can feel it will be okay and they will live happily ever after, all three of them.
The Long Goodbye

Millicent leaves Mouth for New York
Millicent is about to leave as Mouth runs to stop her. She asks what he wants to say after goodbye as Mouth notice she is not wearing her glasses. She tells him that she has had lasik so does not need them. Mouth says that it must have been a month of firsts as Millicent goes to leave insulted. He apologizes and as he admits he is still mad, Millicent says that there is nothing he can say that she has not said a million times to herself. Mouth says that maybe there is one thing and apologizes to her. She asks why as Mouth says he is sorry for driving her away. He gives her his cell phone bill and says that most of $300 was because of him and Gigi exchanging texts. As Millicent begins to get upset, Mouth says he is not doing it to be cruel, he is showing her that he is the one who should be sorry and has realized it. Millicent asks why he done it as Mouth says he does not know why exactly but wishes he never had done it. He asks her to forgive him as Millicent says that she understands that he has needs and she could not fulfill them. Mouth tells her that she did, everyday, but Millicent tells him that she did not at night and that she would often wish she would have had sex with him but was too scared she would mess up. She tells him that she has realized that their relationship was not that special. Mouth assures her that they were great together as Millicent says that even if they did start again, the past would always be between them, so maybe if they start new relationships, the past would disappear. Mouth asks if they go forward without the mistakes but with wrong people. He tells her that they can move forward together and get through it as he misses her. She asks what he misses about her and Mouth lists a number of things that he misses about their relationship. Millicent says that she cannot rewind the clock and take any of it back and Mouth tells her that he loves her for her and Millicent says he loves her too but it is not about him forgiving her, she has to forgive herself and she cannot do that with him around. She goes to leave as Mouth asks her to stay, but she kisses him and leaves upset.

She explains that it is too fast and that she has Sam to worry about.
