[Elijah's mother has just given birth to him in a '60s dress store; a doctor, Dr. Mathison has arrived to take care of her before the ambulance arrives]

Dr. Mathison:
Is there a name yet?
Elijah's Mother:
Elijah.
[She hands him the wrapped child. We can't see the baby, but the piercing cries seem to get louder]

Elijah's Mother:
[almost laughing]
Is he supposed to crying like that?
[Elijah's mother can't see her baby anymore. She watches Dr. Mathison as he looks down and examines her child. Dr. Mathison doesn't look up for the longest time]

Elijah's Mother:
Can I have him back?
Dr. Mathison:
[looking at the saleswoman through the mirror]
What happened during the delivery?
Saleswoman:
Nothing. It was very quick. The baby just wanted to come right out. There was no problems.
Dr. Mathison:
Did you drop him?
Saleswoman:
What?
Dr. Mathison:
Did you drop this baby?
Saleswoman:
[indignant]
Jesus Christ, no.
[the baby continues to scream]

Dr. Mathison:
[to the saleswoman]
Inform the ambulance we have a... situation.
[to Elijah's mother]

Dr. Mathison:
I've never seen... this. It appears that your infant has suffered some fractures while in your uterus.
[beat]

Dr. Mathison:
His arms and legs are broken.
