The film follows three interconnected stories. In the first, a woman (Lisa Kudrow) reluctantly agreeing to work with a would-be young filmmaker (Jesse Bradford) in order to locate the now grown son she secretly gave up for adoption after becoming pregnant from her step-brother (Steve Coogan) (who is later found to be gay) 19 years earlier.
In the second story arc, her step-brother (Steve Coogan) and his domestic partner (David Sutcliffe) are deciding whether or not to confront a lesbian couple (Laura Dern and Sarah Clarke) who are their friends regarding the paternity of their son.
And in the third, a young man (Jason Ritter) is involved with a band and trying to keep his father (Tom Arnold) from learning that he is gay, while also dealing with the seemingly gold-digging woman (Maggie Gyllenhaal) who inserts herself into their lives.
