Alice, Griffin, and Dinah Stenen lost their parents when they were young, and now are adults are fumbling their way through life. Alice, an actress, falls for a neighbor with a young child, but isn’t sure she can commit. Griffin’s mate, Tomas, desperately wants to adopt a baby, but Griffin would settle for a dog. And Dinah has an unexpected fling that leaves her pregnant and floundering. Though living separate lives — in New York, Chicago and D.C.  — unexpected events bring them back together. Meanwhile, like a Greek chorus of two, their parents observe from the afterlife, weighing in on their children’s choices.
