Knocked Up
Alison Scott is an up-and-coming entertainment journalist whose 24-year-old life is on the fast track. But it gets seriously derailed when a drunken one-nighter with slacker Ben Stone results in an unwanted pregnancy. Faced with the prospect of going it alone or getting to know the baby’s father, Alison decides to give the lovable doof a chance. An overgrown kid who has no desire to settle down, Ben learns that he has a big decision to make with his kid’s mom-to-be: will he hit the road or stay in the picture!

As they discover more about one another, it becomes painfully obvious that theyâ¿¿re not the soul mates they’d hoped they might be.

What makes a happy lifetime partnership after all? A couple of drinks and a wild night later, they’ve got nine confusing months to figure it out.
