Mark Wahlberg and Rose Byrne play Pete and Ellie, a couple who seemingly have their lives sorted out. Married and working together in their successful home renovation business, it appears nothing is missing until the topic of kids come up. Pete jokingly suggests adopting a five year old to avoid becoming an ‘old dad’, a joke that Ellie runs with, landing them both in a Foster Care Information session run by Karen and Sharon, played by Octavia Spencer and Tig Notaro. Here they learn what it is to be a foster parent and how to love and care for a child that has faced difficulties their whole life.
