Maria is a self-centred teenage suburban brat until she gets pregnant by her unloving quarterback boyfriend and gives her father a fatal heart attack. Matthew is a rowdy and disillusioned computer engineer with a vicious temper. Disowned by her devastated mother, dumped by her boyfriend, and shunned by her friends, Maria wanders the streets and bumps into Metthew. These two exiles fall in together and eventually set out trying to become a normal domestic suburban couple. But these troubled lives evolve in unexpected ways and Maria grows into a responsible person that few conventional notions of "ordinary' can contain.
