- Aqua: *kisses Jeffrey back* You never cease to make me happy dear.
Chapter 3: Baby Shower
- Aqua: Thank you for doing this for us, Pinkie.
- Pinkie: Of coarse. This is just so exciting! You're gonna have a baby and you'll be a mommy and Jeffrey will be a daddy and there will be a new member of the family, and I'll have a new friend to play with and have fun!!!
- Applejack: Easy there, Pinkie. Let the little gal get to know her parents first.
- Pinkie: Oh yes. Of coarse. It's no fun when the baby doesn't know her own parents. She should be able to love them and have fun with them too.
- Jeffrey: Thanks for saying that, Pinkie. And don't worry. She'll love you all too.
- Nails: You think so, boss?
- Jeffrey: Totally.
- Jaden: Jeffrey. Alexis and I have a gift for when the baby is born.
- Jeffrey: Really?
- (Alexis holds out a stuffed doll of Winged Kuriboh.)
- Jeffrey: *gasps* Oh, wow!
- Aqua: It's so cute. Thank you.
- Alexis: We hope she'll like it. We thought maybe she'd want something to sleep with.
- Jeffrey: We know she'll love it.
- The Mask: (dressed as a carpenter) Okay now. The baby's room is all ready. And I only got 6 splinters in the process.
- Aqua: Thank you, Mask.
- AppleJack: Come on in. The paint's all dried up.
- (Jeffrey and Aqua enter the baby's room)
- Aqua: *sheds a tear* It's perfect. Thank you, everyone.
- Twilight: And look. We even have gifts for when the baby arrives.
- Jeffrey: This is awesome, guys.
- Rainbow Dash: We just can't wait 'til the baby comes.
- Jeffrey: She'll be here soon enough. We just got to be patient.
- Spike: We know. But this is so exciting!
- Fluttershy: I bet she'll look so cute.
Chapter 4: The day arrives
- Jeffrey: *sits with Aqua*
- Aqua: ....! *moans*
- Jeffrey: Honey?
- Aqua: *smiles a bit* It's time.......
- Jeffrey: ...!! It's is?! Whoa! *falls down, then helps Aqua up* I'd better get help. *shouts loudly* JADEN!!

- Aqua: *breathes as calmly as she can*
- Jeffrey: *looks at Aqua with a worried expression*
- Aqua: *smiles a bit* I'll be... okay, dear. I promise....
- Jeffrey: All right...
- (They soon reach the hospital, and Aqua is immediately sent to a medical room)
- Jeffrey: Keep breathing, Aqua! Come on!
- Aqua: I am! *moans and starts giving birth*
- Jeffrey: *lets Aqua squeeze his hand* Come on, hon!
- Aqua: *squeezes his hand and screams*
- (Outside the room)
- Jaden: Oh dear..... I'm getting worried.
- Alexis: They'll be all right, Jaden. But...i am worried too.
- Jaden: Right. *paces around the room nervously*
- Alexis: *thinks to herself* Come on, Aqua.
