A woman struggling to get pregnant becomes embroiled in the criminal underworld with her potential egg donor.
After multiple failed attempts at IVF, JESSICA and GORDON SANDERS must explore alternative options such as egg donation if they want to be parents, a notion Jessica likens to being an understudy in a Broadway show about her own life. Fate, however, has a funny way of intervening, and after stepping in to defend a stranger from a group of thugs, Jessica meets BRIDGET GARCIA. Bridget offers her a “life-for-a-life” exchange to repay Jessica for her kindness. Unbeknownst to Gordon, Jessica strikes a deal with Bridget to use her eggs, thrusting her into a dangerous adventure in the criminal underworld.
