The series chronicles the lives of three generations of the Short family as they go about their daily lives in Los Angeles County. Each episode is told as four short stories, typically one for three of the four Short family branches and one that involves the fourth and ties the other three stories together.

"Demo Nosebreath Surgery Match"

In "Story One: Funeral For A Goose", Tyler feels bad about playing music after recording a demo that Tim paid for at a studio.

In "Story Two: Rough Pregnancy", Jen is feeling uncomfortable with her pregnancy, which also affects Greg.

In "Story Three: Good Care", Heather helps John with "his housekeeping" while Joan recovers from knee surgery.

In "Story Four: Meet the Parents", Matt and Colleen must compete against a wealthy couple in order to impress a potential birth mother, Morgan (Joey King).

"Misery Turd Name Pills"

In "Story One: Broken Mom-Mom", while Joan is bedridden recovering from surgery, she persuades Sophia to spend time with her. In the end, she regrets it.

In "Story Two: Birth Mama Drama", Matt and Colleen invite the family to dinner for them to get to know the birth mother, Morgan.

In "Story Three: The Name Game", Greg and Jen select a name for their new baby, only to learn that Matt and Colleen also chose the same one.

In "Story Four: Heather's Business", Heather starts a new business named "Feel-Betters" making bottled placebo pills for mothers to give to their children, which she closes down after learning about the legal landmines.

"Birth Meddling Jacket Denial"

In "Story One: Home Birth", when Morgan will prohibit anyone into the delivery room for the birth of her baby, Matt and Colleen convince her to give birth at home.

In "Story Two: Friend Fight", Heather is anxious after Samantha got along again with Jenna (Ashley Wolff), a friend who is a bad influence.

In "Story Three: Jen's Push Present", Jen is ecstatic after Greg bought her a gorgeous jacket, but actually it is for Joan.

In "Story Four: Denial", Tim keeps denying that he has a health problem, even though the doctor instructs him to go to the emergency room.
