From the moment Benchley learns about his impending fatherhood, he becomes consumed with anticipation, constantly trying to understand the mysteries of pregnancy.

Ultimately, the film culminates in the birth of Benchley's baby, with him experiencing a mix of emotions ranging from overwhelming joy to a continued sense of confusion. Through his funny and relatable portrayal of expectant fathers, Benchley captures the universal themes of love, anticipation, and the humorous side of the journey towards parenthood.
