Flirting with Disaster

Synopsis

Mel Colpin, who was raised in foster care, has just become a father and refuses to give his son a name until he learns who his birth parents are. Determined to uncover the truth, he embarks on a cross-country search with his wife Nancy and Tina, a stunning but hopelessly clumsy adoption agent. Their heartfelt mission quickly spirals into a madcap road adventure of mistaken identities, wrong turns, and increasingly absurd obstacles—culminating in run-ins with overeager, love-struck ATF agents that only make the chaos worse.
