(Season 15: Ep. 16)

(Alex is sitting in his office, on his laptop, working)

(Jo knocks on the open door and walks in)

Jo: Your head turned out perfectly fine.

Alex: Thank you?

Jo: I mean, Maybe it was too big for regular hats, but who cares...

(She sits down on the opposite side of him)

Jo: You turned out perfect.

Alex: But it's my mom's head you're worried about, Right? You don't want to pass the crazy gene to our kids.

Jo: Alex, I love your mom. I do. I am not afraid of your genes...

(He looks at her confused)

Jo: I'm terrified of mine...

(He gives her a pitiful look)

Jo: You know, Every time I go to the doctor I have to write "Unknown" On my medical history. On both sides. And I've learned to live with that and define myself by my own terms. But when it comes to our kids... I don't want to not know.

Alex: Okay, so, we will hire someone to track down your family and...

Jo: No, no, no. I don't... I don't want to meet them.

(She shows him a DNA testing box)

Jo: I am going to spit in a tube.

Alex: Cool. I'm gonna grow a baby in a bag.

(She looks at him confused)

Jo: Wait. What?

Alex: Yeah. A baby in a bag...

(She gets her DNA test results bag and see's she has a possible cousin)

Jo: Oh, my... "You are comparing with Martha Tomlinson. It's probable that Martha Tomlinson is your first cousin."... I have a cousin.

(Jo scoffs)

Parker: Do you want me to find her?

Jo: How would you do that?

Parker: Start with a Web search, then Facebook, Instagram, then an exhaustive search of various consumer databases...

Jo: No, no, no, no! I don't want that!... No, that's... that's creepy.

Parker: It's all legal.

Jo: No... Okay, but if you could find her, could you also find out who she's related to? Could you find her mother or...

Parker: Or your mother?

Jo: No! I didn't say do it.

Parker: Oh.

(He chuckles)

Jo: Can you really find my mother?

Parker: Yes. Do you really want me to?

(She takes a second to think)

Jo: Yes.
