Apparently, "a chance romantic encounter" goes wrong when the woman is revealed to be a wanted felon. When Jimmy visits her in prison, he learns she gave birth to a baby for whom, he is now responsible. and don't speak ill of Allison Janney. Have faith.

However, I'm with you on "Raising Hope," although I'm intensely curious why, precisely, this guy has a baby. It was really bugging me throughout the trailer.
