Culver City, CA: Columbia Pictures, 1984. Draft script for the 1984 film. With a few annotations in manuscript ink throughout.

Rob Salinger (Moore) works as a television reporter and his wife Micki (Reinking) is a lawyer who is having difficulty getting pregnant, to the chagrin of Rob. While working, Rob meets a cellist Maude (Irving), who he begins dating, without mentioning his wife. She soon becomes pregnant, as well as his current wife and he ends up marrying Maude as well. To hide his bigamy, he uses work as an excuse to spend days with one woman and nights with another. The women eventually find out about each other as they go into labor (truncated) at the same time and are at the same hospital, on the same floor.
