Maternity Nurse at Desk
Allison Scott es una prometedora periodista de 24 años. Sin embargo, después de una noche de juerga con el vago de Ben Stone, descubre que está embarazada. Ante el dilema de enfrentarse sola a la maternidad o bien conocer mejor al padre, opta por lo segundo. Aunque Ben es una persona inmadura, decide afrontar su responsabilidad. Lo malo es que tanto él como Allison no tardan en darse cuenta de que son incompatibles. Para colmo de males, el único ejemplo de jóvenes padres que conocen son Debbie, la agobiada hermana de Allison, y el calzonazos de Pete. En cualquier caso tienen nueve meses para decidirlo.

The inhabitants of a deteriorating section of 1968 Junction City, Kansas known as "Junk City" bemoan their existence and revel at the history of their neighborhood during its 1940's heydays when legendary jazz musicians regularly played its clubs. In 1968, the area has diminished to strip clubs and juke joints inhabited by Vietnam War draftees that pass through from nearby Fort Riley. Heads of the group include a wino who lost a leg in WWII, a taxi dispatcher, a saloon owner, and a crazed bag lady. The younger generation is represented by a young prostitute who is trying to get off the streets, but is forced to continue to work by a no-good boy friend and the need to feed her baby. Martin Sheen also appears as a white minister who prefers the people in the area over his own congregation.
