On last night's episode of Teen Mom, we there were plenty of surprises! 

Maci and her boyfriend announced that they were pregnant, much to the shock of the MTV producers. They decided to turn the tables on them and make the announcement while filming, but without giving them a heads up. Lolz! Next they had to tell Bentley, and they did it in the cutest way possible. After his birthday party, they brought him home and he had gifts waiting for him on the couch. With the gifts was a card, explaining that he was going to be a big brother and that the gifts were from the baby. He was so surprised that it took him like five minutes to actually believe them! Very cute. Although the baby wasn't planned, (Maci has polycystic ovarian syndrome and was told it would be difficult for her to get pregnant) she's pretty happy about it. She did comment however, on the fact that she wants a ring so that her grandparents don't think she's a slut muffin. 

They weren't the only ones with a baby on the way though. It turns out that Gary got Kristina, the girlfriend he has lukewarm feelings for, pregnant. Supposedly she was switching her birth control and that causes a loophole that allowed another Shirley baby to start cooking. As soon as she told Gary, he started feeling her out to see if she would have an abortion, and he's not sure if he's ever going to marry her. 

When he told Amber, I noticed something that I've seen many times before on the show. Gary seems to enjoy saying and doing things that he knows is going to upset Amber. When he dropped the bomb on her, he was smiling. Amber was shocked but she took it really well at first. She was even calm as she told her cousin, but later, the cameras caught her cracking. The producers found her on the couch, bawling her eyes out as it really sank in that she would never have her family together again. I can't blame her, that's really hard. Hopefully she does what her brother advised her to do prepares herself for Gary to take her to court over Leah. It's sad that he enjoys upsetting her. Really sad. 

After last week's fiasco, Caitlin and Tyler were waiting to hear from Brandon and Teresa about a possible visit with Carly and to discuss the video issue with them. They received a call and were asked to sit down with their adoption counselor in a few weeks time. They were rehearsing what to say and what not to say, and Tyler was trying to make sure his temper wouldn't get the best of him during the meeting. Stay tuned for next week to see what happens! Oh yea, and Farrah comes back next week! 

Teen Mom airs Mondays at 10/9c on MTV.
