George (Paul Rudd) and Nina (Jennifer Aniston) seem like the perfect
couple. They share a cozy Brooklyn apartment, a taste for tuna
casserole, and a devotion to ballroom dancing. They love each
other. There's only one hitch: George is gay. And when Nina announces
she's pregnant, things get especially complicated. Nina's
overbearing boyfriend - the baby's father - wants marriage. Nina
wants independence. George will do anything for a little affection,
but is he ready to become an unwed surrogate dad? This comedy/drama
