Kurt's pregnant employee [Spoiler]

Okay, SERIOUSLY?!

Even though I did crack up (especially at his grossed out response) when Kurt's employee, Margie was confused and said she wasn't pregnant toward the ending, but I was also really annoyed! I know that a lot of people sometimes can mistake a non-pregnant woman into thinking she is because of her weight, but that was a LITTLE ridiculous. She had a FULL BLOWN stomach and even held it like she was pregnant! She didn't just look overweight, the actress had to at least have on a fat suit or something... I have never seen an overweight woman who looked THAT pregnant, most of them you can't really tell, but her's was way too obvious...

I've seen that actress like 10 years ago on "The Wayans Bros." with the exact same physique, I'm pretty sure that's her natural build. Unless they picked her to have the exact fake stomach for totally unrelated roles 10 years apart.

That's your problem, welcome to Philly.

I agree. the first scene we see her in is when she is waiting for the bathroom [seriously, there is only one bathroom there??] and she is holding her stomach/belly. to be honest she was holding it like she was close to labor.

and if she was bursting for the loo and waiting a while,non pregnant ladies don't hold their stomachs like that. they suck air through their teeth and maybe do a little dance and hop from one foot to the other.

remember that episode of Seinfeld when George was pegged as an insensitive jerk and so he sees this 'lady' who seemed to be in the 'family way' and he let her sit down on the bus? she kept on rubbing her stomach and acting uncomfortable. when he gets to talking to her he finds out that she is not only not pregnant but also A MAN!!

OH THANK YOU GOD! THANK YOU SO BLOODY MUCH!!! Basil Fawlty

Love that scene but I think it is mad about you not Seinfeld.

If he had been at the company as long as was stated (and it appears that she has been there even longer, according to the VoiceOver at the end), surely he would know that she wasn't pregnant??? In the uk, pregnant women have to give confirmation of their due date for maternity pay etc, as the accountant for the company, he would know that the American equivalent hadn't been done???

There's 10 types of people. Those who get binary, those who don't & those who don't expect base 3.
