KNOCKED UP My prim-and-proper assistant has a dirty, dirty mind. I found her steamy writing on my computer. Now all I can think about is re-enacting the “good parts” of her story. But I don't sh*t where I eat. She's off-limits. Until I realize I need a baby — and she’d be the perfect surrogate. AGAIN My dad said the boy was trouble, and I didn't listen.

He’s only ever seen me as a crybaby. His friend's little sister. Now he’s back after 8 years away, and he doesn’t recognize me. The look in his eyes says I'm finally old enough for the ride of my life. I can't tell him who I am now… can I?
