Plot
editDr. Freeman (Feore) runs a Las Vegas Assisted Reproductive Technology clinic. Eight of the nine women are inseminated and become pregnant, except Salome (Tilly) who manages to conceive naturally.
After the births, investigative journalist Tallulah (McGovern) notices a striking resemblance between the toddlers. She comes to believe that Dr. Freeman swapped donor sperm for his own. A preliminary hearing is held and the process of the nine women is recalled.[1]
