Nikki and Jason are a couple in their 30s who have been unsuccessful in their attempts to conceive a child. They have decided to take the plunge into adoption and attend a meeting to learn about the process.
At the meeting, they meet a few other couples who are also considering adoption. The group is led by Penny, a social worker who guides them through the various steps involved in the adoption process.
Nikki and Jason are excited about the prospect of becoming parents, but they quickly realize that the process is much more complicated than they initially thought. They have to fill out countless forms and provide extensive personal information, and they are unsure if they will be able to meet the strict criteria required for adoption.
As they navigate the process, Nikki becomes fixated on the idea of having a perfect family and starts to worry that they will not be good enough parents. Jason, on the other hand, is more laid back and relaxed, reminding Nikki that they cannot control everything and that they are doing their best.
Throughout the episode, we see glimpses of Nikki and Jason's life together, including their jobs and their relationship with each other. It becomes clear that they both have their own insecurities and fears about becoming parents, but they are determined to make it work.
The episode ends with Nikki and Jason submitting their application for adoption, with a mix of nerves and excitement at the prospect of starting a family.
