Joel and Natasha may not have much in common, but one thing’s for certain: they both don’t want to be at this baby shower. Joel is on a mission to outrun the swell of his own “heartbreak water” and Natasha has become adept at hiding from her overcritical family. The two end up starting an unlikely friendship, realizing they each may be what the other one has been looking for.
