When Pete and Ellie decide to start a family, they stumble into the world of foster care adoption. They hope to take in one small child but when they meet three siblings, including a rebellious 15 year old girl, they find themselves speeding from zero to three kids overnight.
Navigating the chaotic, paperwork-heavy reality of foster care adoption turns a quiet domestic dream into a whirlwind of teenage rebellion and unexpected chaos. This heartfelt comedy finds its soul in the messy, unscripted moments of three siblings trying to fit into a home that wasn't prepared for them.
