While Cleavon (Kevin Hart) is still looking for the woman of his dreams, Victoria (Tamala Jones) is married to a man who doesn't want children, Zenobia (Nicole Ari Parker) meanwhile, is too geeky to get a man, and Phil (Keith Robinson) is already married with children, but his wife is not very interested in being a mother. All four of them try to rectify their romantic lives and futures while their biological clocks tick away. [4]
