Janet's having a hard time remembering things now she's pregnant. Louise wants to stimulate their brains in the pub quiz. Kelly comperes the quiz and spends the evening making lewd comments about Gaz and Janet sleeping together.

Gaz has lost all his weight and is enjoying showing off his new body, and his new-found knowledge of pregnant women leaves Jonny feeling inadequate, as he's been missing his antenatal classes with Janet.

Janet's more bothered about the pub quiz than going to antenatal, so Jonny and Gaz decide to go to the class together. Using a Cuddles the monkey toy, Gaz is in his element showing off his parenting skills. Jealous Jonny tries to steal his thunder, with disastrous results.

Seeing Gaz slim and handsome again, Donna feels like a slob. She decides to go on a health kick, and realises that as she still has feelings for Gaz, and so can't help being mates with him again.

Janet worries that there's something wrong with the baby as she hasn't felt it move for ages. But her fears are quickly dispelled when her waters suddenly break!
