Live Action’s latest comedy video, “Super Awkward,” features two male friends who run into each other at Walgreens and learn they are both expecting their first child. However, their intentions couldn’t be more different.

As John enters Walgreens and joins the pharmacy line, he sees his fraternity brother, Steve, ahead of him. As the two friends catch up, John shares that he is at the pharmacy that day to pick up thyroid medication for his wife, who is pregnant with their first child. Steve awkwardly admits that his “girl” is pregnant with their first child as well — but that he is there to pick up mifepristone, which is the first part of the two-drug abortion pill regimen.

“My girl’s also pregnant,” says Steve. “… I feel like we’re living like parallel lives here. … I am actually here picking up something for the pregnancy. It’s called… mifepristone. Something with a name like that’s gotta be pretty special, right?”

After John tells him that mifepristone is an abortion pill that would “kill the baby,” Steve argues, “No. No, no, no, no. See, man, we want to have an abortion, but kill the baby? Like, no. These are the no-more-baby pills, right?”

Shocked, John realizes his friend is knowingly there to get the abortion pill. But Steve paints both men as “knights in shining armor walking around Walgreens” because they are both there “serving our ladies.” He then claims his girlfriend pressured him after he told her it was all her decision — and if she had the baby, the child would be hers to raise alone.

“Cause I was like, ‘Look, it’s up to you. Ya know, like it’s your choice. You can either have the abortion or you can, like, raise the kid on your own’,” says Steve. “‘But like, You’re free. You know, like, you’re free to make up your mind about your kid.’ … And she’s like, ‘Why can’t we raise our child together?’ … She’s like, ‘What are you, gonna skip out on me unless I have, like, [an abortion]?’ ‘No babe, I’m here. I’m here for you to get — like I’ll go get the pills for you.’ And then you can see how she, like, twisted my words a little bit, like kinda manipulated it a bit and, like, here I am, trying to take the responsibility on my own shoulders.”

He asks John, “You don’t think it’s like killing a baby, right?” Steve then begins to cry loudly, creating a bit of an awkward situation. John encourages him to go home and tell his pregnant girlfriend that he loves her and the baby — to the applause of the other individuals in line at the Walgreens pharmacy.

In reality, Walgreens has said that once it completes the necessary certification process, it will begin dispensing the abortion pill. In a statement, the pharmacy chain said, “Walgreens has been consistent in and has never wavered from its position: We intend to dispense mifepristone in any jurisdiction where it is legal to do so.”

Earlier this year, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) finalized a rule change that would allow pharmacies to become certified to dispense the abortion pill. Because of the dangers of mifepristone, pharmacies that wish to dispense the abortion pill must be certified in the Mifepristone REMS Program through abortion pill manufacturer Danco Laboratories. CVS, Walgreens, and Rite Aid all signed on to do just that, despite the grave danger it may cause to women and teenage girls… and the fact that mifepristone’s purpose when prescribed in this regimen is to end human life in the womb.

Last year, Alliance Defending Freedom filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of the Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, challenging the FDA’s original approval of mifepristone in 2000. On April 12, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit issued a partial stay in Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine. While the circuit panel did not suspend the drug’s 2000 approval, it did uphold the suspension of mail-order abortion pills and reinstate safety requirements dating prior to 2016, including that the abortion pill be dispensed in person at a clinic or hospital and not at retail pharmacies. As the case plays out, the Supreme Court has allowed the abortion pill to remain widely available; however, it is unclear if Danco is allowing pharmacies to complete certification until the case is resolved.
