Claire Hood's unconventional upbringing in the "Naked Family" - as they were infamously nicknamed by their suburban neighbors - taught her to embrace the unexpected. Now in her thirties, Claire has a husband, Jeremy, who longs to start a family, but Claire's blueprint in life is to avoid an ordinary existence at all costs. At the same time, her stepsister Nicole has set her mind on having a baby on her own. Just as Nicole needs Claire more than ever, Jeremy falls seriously ill and his high school girlfriend resurfaces to lend a hand in his recovery. Everything Claire thinks she values - and everything she imagines about the kind of person she wants to be - is thrown into question.
