Wanda and Tony are expecting their first child. They are throwing a baby shower soon and a friend of hers offered to have it at his restaurant business. They have a party room and he will give it to her free of charge, they only have to tip the staff. She thinks it’s great, it’ll save them a ton of money and the place is lovely. Her husband has an issue with it though, because the “friend” is her ex who she was with for six years. He thinks it’s odd that he offered in the first place. He doesn’t know the guy at all and has never been to the restaurant. She thinks her husband is overreacting, she’s still friendly with him and it’s no big deal.

Marcus and Alana have a five-month-old baby girl. Marcus thinks that now she’s consistently has a 7p-midnight sleep stretch, they can go next door to the neighbor’s house on the weekends for drinks and dinner, they’ll just bring the monitor to watch the baby. If the baby wakes up, they’ll run home. Alana doesn’t like this idea at all, she says the monitor is for IN THE HOUSE, they can’t just leave their baby home along and go next door for wine. He says that he tested it and the monitor works perfectly fine, they’re 100 feet away if that, it’ll be okay. Would you?
