Summary: Secrets are revealed.
"Come on, get up," Jack said.
"You really expect me to walk after that?"
"Liz, look at me. I'm wobbling too."
Liz laughed, and Jack helped her put her clothes on. Jack had an early meeting, so they just had breakfast at IHOP.
"How are we gonna tell them?" Liz asked.
"Tell them what?"
"That we've been sleeping together."
"It's not really going to be a surprise. The writers will see us wobbling around and--"
"Not the writers."
Liz pointed to the ring on her right hand, and Jack's ring on his left hand.
"Them," she said.
"I forgot about them."
"Yeah. Don't worry, we'll figure something out."
They went to work, as usual.
Later in the day, Jack went inside the writers' room to give the paychecks.
"Here's your paycheck, Elizabeth," Jack said, as he was giving Liz her paycheck.
"Um, thank you....John."
"Alright, what's going on with you two?" Frank asked.
"What do you mean?"
"I lost my wallet and..."
"You two are totally doing it!"
Liz scoffed.
"No, we're not!"
"Oh, yeah? Then how do you explain why you're holding your wallet in your hand right now? And why you're walking all weird?" Jenna asked.
"Well--"
Jack sighed.
"Get back to work, people!" Liz said.
The writers groaned. Liz went with Jack to his office.
At the elevator, Jack finally told her.
"Avery and Carol are upstairs. They have something to tell her."
Liz let go of his hand on her hand.
"WHAT?! Aw, come on! I thought we were gonna do it upstairs."
"We will...eventually. See, if they have something to tell us, we'll tell them. Don't worry, Liz. I'll be with you."
"So, you're just gonna get a quickie divorce as if nothing happened?"
"Legally, our divorce isn't even finalized yet, so I'm not married to her. We can cancel our divorce, and screening will be okay."
When they went inside Jack's room, Avery was sitting on one of the chairs, and Carol was pacing the floor.
"Hey, guys," Liz said.
"Oh, thank god, Lizzie," Carol replied. He went to go kiss her, but Liz turned so he could only get her cheek. He tried hugging her, but she only squirmed.
"I have...an announcement to make. As you all know, Abigail was born just two weeks ago. Well, I found out who the father was."
"Who is it?" Liz asked.
Avery pointed to Carol.
"Oh...." Jack and Liz both said.
"Well, on the bright side--" Liz tried to be nostalgic, but it didn't work.
"There is no bright side, Liz," Jack replied, interrupting her sentence.
"Actually, there is, okay?! Since it's confession time, I have something to say! Jack and I have been sleeping together for two months now. And I just found out that...I'm pregnant."
"You're what?!" Avery and Carol both asked.
Jenna barged in the door.
"You're pregnant?! BRIAN, BRIAN, COME OVER HERE!!!!"
Brian came over to Jenna and she told him about Liz'a pregnancy.
He went quickly back to his department, and the news suddenly went on.
"Breaking News..." he kept going.
"...Now you may ask, why are we doing Nightly News so early? Well, on the brighter side of things, Liz Lemon, head writer of TGS, is pregnant. All of us at NBC wish you and your husband, Jack Donaghy, all the best."
Avery quickly turned back at Liz.
"Husband? Jack, we're...we're married."
"About that..." Liz started to say.
"There was a mix up in St. Esclavage and Liz and I are technically married. We started to file a divorce, but we didn't have time for them to approve it."
"You must be having sex with Liz a lot if you call her by her first name," Jenna said.
"Jenna, out," Liz said.
"Whatever, fine. Sleep together for all I care! Have a million tiny baby nerds!" Avery said as she was walking out the door, taking Carol with her.
"Um, bye, Liz. Congratulations on you and Jack."
"Same to you, Carol. Only with Avery."
Carol smiled and left.
So, a new era begins for Liz Lemon's life, as she prepares to be a mother.
