Jennie has been planning to adopt for several months, with an adoption lined up that is expected any day now. She receives an unexpected call from the adoption agency who informs her that the person who was supposed to put the baby up for adoption has had a change of heart and now Jennie will return to the waiting list. Devastated by the news, she impulsively goes to a classifieds website and creates a post to advertise that she wants someone to come to her house and cum inside of her. Faith and Ryan, a happily married couple, talk about how excited they are to be trying to get pregnant. Ryan says that he'll be right there with her, so no matter what happens, they can deal with it together. Several weeks later, Ryan has died, and Faith is wracked with grief. She gets a text from Chris, Ryan's sibling and gets an idea, sending him a message asking if she can come over.
