Nine months pregnant, Eloise is overwhelmed and frustrated when her husband, Tom, keeps putting off assembling the crib. Tired of his excuses and feeling alone, she builds it herself—physically and emotionally drained. When Tom dismisses her efforts, Eloise realizes it’s not just about the crib—it’s about the lack of partnership.
To make him understand, she gives him full responsibility for organizing a last-minute baby shower, knowing he’s unprepared. Watching him struggle and panic, Eloise lets the chaos unfold. At the party, she publicly shares how she assembled the crib herself, reminding everyone—and Tom—that parenting is a shared journey.
Embarrassed and remorseful, Tom finally sees the weight Eloise has been carrying. He apologizes and promises to step up, and Eloise gives him one last chance to prove he means it.
