A Dull House: The Fosters want to have a child. They'll do anything - from high-tech procedures to common sense advice. But are they ready to become parents? Carol is physically, mentally, and emotionally exhausted from many years of fertility drugs, hormone injections, and egg freezing. Charley, her husband, is torn between sexual fantasies and his desire for emotional intimacy with his wife. Dorothy and Albert have different ideas for the Fosters to get pregnant or adopt a child. In the end, the Fosters realize their needs and abandon their wants. Sleepers, Awake!: Pastor Bender, a man of the independent spirit, begins to doubt God's existence and questions the superficiality of all religions. His wife, Hollis, remains firm in her faith despite her husband's gradual interest in atheism. Their son, who's the director of a major advertising firm, comes home to mediate between his parents. Soon, he's fascinated to learn about religious syncretism. He tries to revise and update the Christian faith by blending it with other religious beliefs and moral reasoning to bring his parents to accept the modernized and assimilated version of their faith. Reviving the Rileys: Barry Riley, an old and frail but wealthy man, does everything possible to prolong his life. He has software, hardware, wetware, pig, and monkey organs implanted in his body. His scandalous life reflects the stories reported by Tabloids magazines and the sensational newspaper he owns. His three children discover that they have different mothers - one who'd been killed, one disappeared, and the last one, a homeless, living on skid row. Carrie wants to find her mother; Frank wants his father dead, and Tim is anxious to write his father's story. It's Angelina, the maid, who tries to keep the family together and safe.
