Diane Keaton is J.C. Wiatt, a Manhattan executive on track for a partnership when a distant relative’s will leaves her in charge of a baby girl she never expected. J.C. and her live-in boyfriend, Steven (Harold Ramis), have built their lives around work and agreed that children aren’t part of the plan, but Elizabeth’s arrival upends both. As she tries to balance power lunches, office politics, and round-the-clock childcare, a conniving colleague and a biased boss push her off the fast track.
