00:00I don't think I'm gonna get much sleep tonight.
00:06Me either.
00:08What if we're not good enough?
00:10If we're not, who is?
00:13Your visitor has arrived.
00:18I'm Virginia, your assessor.
00:21Over the next seven days, you'll undergo close observation and formal testing to ascertain suitability for parenting.
00:29I want to get to know the real you.
00:31Is that a good idea?
00:32Yes.
00:33I was joking.
00:38Assessment is a rigorous process.
00:42It'll do.
00:43With a high threshold for success.
00:49Oh, Virginia!
00:50Oh my god!
00:51I need to assess all aspects of your relationship.
00:54How's assessment going so far?
00:57It's a nightmare.
00:59Jesus!
01:00Welcome!
01:01This is...
01:02Our assessor.
01:03Is there alcohol in this?
01:04Yes, a bit. Is that all right?
01:05I'm gonna need something stronger.
01:07We should be reducing the population, not increasing it.
01:11We tore each other apart out of scraps.
01:15Because there wasn't room for everyone.
01:17You think we somehow conquered nature.
01:20You're wrong.
01:21It's really yummy.
01:22Whoa!
01:23You shouted at me.
01:24I did not.
01:25Virginia!
01:26What if I can't do this?
01:27She's just pushing buttons, okay?
01:28We just need to stay cool.
01:29Daddy?
01:30Ha!
01:31She likes you.
01:32You jealous?
01:33You cannot behave like this if you want a child.
01:35I want a real child!
01:36Not this!
01:37I'm bored.
01:38You want to play a game?
01:39You're having a nightmare?
01:40Oh, man.
01:41I'm scared.
01:42This is crazy.
01:43Mommy!
01:44Daddy!
01:45Stop!
01:46You cannot behave like this if you want a child.
01:50I want a real child!
01:52Not this!
01:53I am!
01:56I'm bored.
01:57You want to play a game?
02:04You're having a nightmare.
02:06Oh man, I'm scared.
02:08This is crazy.
02:09Mommy!
02:10Danny!
02:11Stop!
02:13End of test.
02:15Sigh.
