Becky, Dawn: GET TO IT AND DO IT!

Jenna: (Spoken) Wh- okay, girls! Enough!

Becky, Dawn: (Sung) YOU KNOW WHAT WE MEAN

Dawn: I HOPE YOU DRANK ENOUGH THIS MORNING

Becky: COME ON, SWEETIE, IT'S BETTER TO KNOW
WE'LL BE RIGHT HERE WITH YOU, SO . . .

Dawn: IT'S NO OR IT'S YES
BUT EITHER WAY YOU GOTTA TAKE THE TEST

Becky: A SQUAT AND A SQUEEZE
A PRAYER AND A PLEASE
IT'S NOTHING

Dawn: A STICK AND A LINE

Jenna: JUST ONE OF 'EM, IF I'M LUCKY

Becky, Dawn: A POT AND A PISS
HERE WE GO, SIS
AND WE'LL KEEP OUR FOCUS ON

Jenna, Becky, Dawn: THE NEGATIVE!

Becky: (Spoken) Read the instructions.

Dawn: (Read in spanish)

Becky: English!

Dawn: Do not insert the test stick into your vagina.

Becky: Wooooow. Thank you, Dawn.

Jenna: (Sung) HOW'S I EVER GET MYSELF IN THIS MESS?
ONE DRUNK NIGHT IN THAT STUPID RED DRESS

Dawn: (Spoken) Oh, I love that red dress! The way it sparkles, it looks like an ice skating outfit.

Becky: Stay with us, Dawn!

Dawn: (Sung) MAYBE HIS MACHINERY IS BROKEN SOMEHOW?
WHAT IF HIS BOYS DON'T SWIM?! I MEAN, WOW! (Spoken) Miraculous luck!

Becky: Yeah, miraculous! (Sung) TO GET AWAY WITH AN UNPROTECTED F-

Jenna: FUNNY HOW ONE NIGHT CAN RUIN YOUR WHOLE LIFE

Becky, Dawn: DON'T GO THERE YET, WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE TEST SAYS

Jenna: I'M ALREADY PANICKED!

Becky: (Spoken) Just calm down, Godammit!

Dawn: (Sung) MAYBE IT'LL ALL BE FINE

Becky, Dawn: MAYBE THERE'LL BE JUST ONE LINE

Jenna, Becky, Dawn: COME ON, NEGATIVE!

Dawn: (Spoken) I thought you don't sleep much with you husband much anymore?

Jenna: Well, I - he got me drunk. I do stupid things when I drink, like sleep with my husband.

Becky: Honey, we've all made that mistake.

Jenna, Becky, Dawn: (Sung) FOCUS ON THE NEGATIVE!

Becky: THIS WILL ALL BE ALRIGHT

Dawn: IT WAS ONLY ONE NIGHT

Jenna: SOMEONE SEND ME A SIGN

Becky, Dawn: ONE LINE

Jenna, Becky, Dawn: ONE LINE

Becky, Dawn: THAT MEANS THE TEST IS READY
THIS IS IT . . .

Jenna: . . . . shit.
