[flashback:]
Lois: We can't do this! We are not having a baby with us like this. We have to figure out a way to fix this.
Hal: Well, I guess I can get a night job, and...
Lois: No, we have to figure out a way to fix us. And I don't mean just now because we're always going to have hard times. We have to figure out a way to get through this without us killing each other.
Hal: Well, I'm open to suggestions.
Lois: Okay, here's what we're going to do. You're going to tell me three - no, five - no, seven! I want you to tell me seven things you love about me. Seven reasons why this is all worthwhile. Seven reasons why we're still here.
Hal: Seven?
Lois: Seven. And I have to believe every one of them and you have to say them all right now.
Hal: Seven?
Lois: Oh, just please. Just do it.
