April Epner (Helen Hunt) is thirty-nine years old. Her biological clock is not so much ticking as sounding an alarm. In a matter of weeks her world is turned upside down, when her gentle but immature husband, Ben (Matthew Broderick), decides their recent marriage is a mistake, and her ailing adoptive mother passes away. If that wasn't enough to deal with, a brassy, overbearing local talk-show host named Bernice Graves (Bette Midler) shows up out of the blue, announcing herself as April's biological mother. Devastated on the one hand and bewildered on the other, April finds solace from her rapidly unravelling life in a blossoming relationship with Frank (Colin Firth), a handsome, charming and suddenly single dad of two.
