This episode is a dialogue between Wanda and Enrique about someone who is expecting a new baby – a mother who is about to give birth to a new baby. Let’s get started.

Wanda: Oh hi, I wasn’t expecting you today.

Enrique: We’ve been cleaning out our garage, and your sister said I should come by with a few things for your baby.

Wanda: That’s really sweet of you guys, but I’m not due for another six months.

Enrique: But you’ll need these things to get the baby’s room ready, right?

Wanda: Well, we don’t actually have a baby room set up yet.

Enrique: There’s no time like the present.
