How Would You Like Your Eggs?

Warning: Spoilers
College student and sorority sister Valerie ("Val") Vont faces a dilemma. She is about to lose her financial aid at college because her drunken father is falsely claiming her as a dependent on his tax returns. So, Val moves into action to consider donating her "eggs" for $25,000 or earning an even greater payday for carrying a child to term as a surrogate. She opts for the big money.

But a problem ensues when the parents who have enlisted Val die in an auto crash after their vehicle was rigged for the brakes to fail. The culprit was the boyfriend of Jameson's powerful mother and former congresswoman Maureen Darlington. It was her boyfriend Charlie Harding, who paid his former thug crony Walter to kill Sara. Unbeknownst to him, Jameson was also riding in the car.

Charlie is the lynchpin of the nefarious actions to gain possession of the baby carried by Val to ensure that the matriarch Maureen will be able to raise the child on her own. But Val wants the kind sister Stacie and her gentle husband Bob to be the parents. Charlie draws upon his background as the "fixer" for Maureen's corrupt political campaigns, the Walden video, wiretaps, and even the murder of her husband Edward.

The quick-thinking friends of Val, including her sorority sister Su and her compliant boyfriend Kyle become suspicious of the machinations of Maureen and Charlie. But the film really belongs to Val, who will stop at nothing to bring a happy baby into the world.

The only scene that truly stretched credibility was the moment in the hospital when Val cheerfully handed the baby off like a football to Stacie and Bob. No post-partum depression for Godmother Val! Hers was a job well-done in being a sorority sister that will make Omega Zeta Delta proud.
