Yeah. The guys were all talking about it this morning. What the hell was that about? Did he lose track of time fixing that gorgeous Hollywood hair?

Nisha Arora

So, plot twist: Patton’s long-lost mom sorta dropped in on his life hours before Gia’s birth. He’d forgotten his phone in his truck and never saw all the missed calls. Yeah, 10/10 on timing.

Rani Meyer

WHAT?! Seriously?

Nisha Arora

Couldn’t make it up if I tried.

Kavi Case

That’s . . . wow. A surprise baby and a surprise mom on the same day. Patton’s head must be spinning.

Sarina Winters

It’s why she forgave him. Can you imagine if he said he was running late because he was stopping for snacks or something?

Rani Meyer

Nisha would have thrown him out the maternity ward window. [GIF of person being hurled out a window]

Nisha Arora

I won’t deny it. I was thinking about all the ways I’d end him until he showed up.

Bella Meyer

And I assume his mom has green eyes?

Nisha Arora

Exactly the same shade as Gia’s.

Mala Meyer

So, what’s the deal now? Is his mom going to meet Gia? Is she sticking around this time?

Piper Menon

Neesh, tell them the rest.

Rani Meyer

There’s more??

Nisha Arora

Remember how I do hair at the homeless shelter?

Bella Meyer

Yeah. Which is so big-hearted of you, BTW. But also, not a surprise.
