Stone Cold Fox

Bea finds out she is pregnant, which forces her to think about whether she wants children, if she can be a good mother, and if the child will be like Bea and Bea’s mother. Collin is ecstatic at the thought of becoming a father, hoping the child is a girl, while Bea does not know what to hope for. Bea knows the child will entrench her more firmly in the Case family, though, and she notices how Haven treats her kindly after finding out. The family plans to have Bea and Collin announce the pregnancy at a friend’s anniversary party, and Bea looks forward to seeing Gale’s reaction.

At the party, Bea is dismayed by Dave’s presence, but she reminds herself that she will not sleep with Dave. After Collin announces the pregnancy, Bea relishes Gale’s look of shock, and Bea allows people to rub her stomach, though she hates being touched by strangers. Bea confronts Gale, who implies that she has critical information about Bea. Gale implies that Bea slept with Dave, which Bea denies, but Gale insists she has all the information about Bea’s history. Suggesting baby names, Gale brings up Richard, Mike, Seamus, and Dean, all names from Bea’s past.
