John Pope (Greg Poppleton) host of the Australian TV Talk Show "The Johnny Pope Show" and his bi-weekly appointed Assistant (Trudey Welke) have stumbled across an amazing Australian story.

The intense research about the family brings their own relationship closer and what they discover creates a range of emotional responses.

The discovery of the uncanny romance between Adam Todd (Shaughn Helliar) and his wife Suzanne (Shelley Green) starts with an Internet Chat room conversation and develops into a devoted relationship. Shortly after their perfect wedding, Suzanne falls pregnant. The discovery and confirmation excite them both. But their perfect birth plan is thwarted by medical dramas that increase wave after wave. After Adam takes total control of the birth with the assistance of an angel like Midwife, everything is again perfect. Until …

Arriving home the next wave of medical drama begins. Nurses making Home Visits raise concerns the baby is not doing well. Wild stories about a child slowly withering away spread through the community. Johnny tells his audience that words can not describe the events that unfold as the studio falls into darkness and the real video taken by the real Adam Todd begins to play ...
