Adam’s wife, a prenatal teacher, is late and Adam is left to entertain the group until she gets there. A bumbling father of three, he does his best to be informative but with silly consequences (e.g., playing what he believes is a birthing video but really a video of his kids, and himself, performing armpit farts). In between these instances Adam spills his secrets: how he lost his daughters in Wal-Mart, how he missed the birth of his first child and how he wants to be a good father but most of all he WANTS TO BE LEFT ALONE! Despite a few stale nagging-wife jokes, Growe gives a confident and hilarious performance, with a gooey ending to boot.
