Their drinking contest ends in a one-night stand they both hope to forget. Three months later, Ella learns she is pregnant with Julian's child. She goes to the hospital for an abortion, only to find Julian is the attending physician. Medical issues postpone the procedure, so Julian moves in to look after her until it can happen.
