Mel Coplin is on a mission. Though he loves his beautiful wife Nancy and their baby, he feels his life is incomplete. What's missing is knowing the two people who brought him into this
world - his biological parents. Enter Tina Kalb, a psychologist from the agency where Mel was
adopted. Her intent: to reunite Mel with his parents while videotaping the experience for her
own research. The problem is, Tina seems interested in more than just research. Meanwhile,
Mel's adoptive parents are worried. Why isn't their son satisfied with the mother and father
who raised him? What exactly is he looking for? To answer these questions, Mel, Nancy, Tina
and the baby set out on a crosscountry trek that brings them more surprises than they
bargained for.
