Plot summary
Jiajia lives in Beijing on the money of a boyfriend who is already married. Pregnant with his child, she flies to Seattle, where an illegal maternity center will handle the birth, since having the baby in China raises legal problems. The house she stays in is shared with two other pregnant women, and Frank, a Chinese immigrant, is the driver who collects her at the airport. Frank was a doctor in China; he moved to Seattle to look after his daughter, while his ex-wife manages a pharmaceutical company and intends to settle in America. Jiajia finds her boyfriend difficult to reach by phone.

- The film's Seattle setting drove a boom in Chinese tourism to Seattle even though it was shot entirely in Vancouver. Visit Seattle's Janet Christopher said the phones "started ringing and it hasn't stopped"; the response led CCTV to broadcast live from Kerry Park on New Year's Eve 2013 and sparked a rise in Chinese romantic comedies.
