Here is Cheryl, a tightly-wound, vulnerable woman who lives alone. She is haunted by a baby boy she met when she was six, who sometimes recurs as other people's babies. Cheryl is also obsessed with Phillip, a philandering board member where she works. And when Cheryl's bosses ask if their 21-year-old daughter, Clee, can move into her house for a little while, Cheryl's eccentrically ordered world explodes.
