"Timing, Promotional Trailer"

Log Line: "Three Men and a Baby" if all the men were gay and the baby was 17. Synopsis: Jack, a delinquent teenage boy, runs away in hopes of reuniting with Jesse, the gay father Jack hasnt spoken to in seven years. Jacks timing couldnt be worse. To the shock of his father and his fathers partner, Connor, the boy shows up in the middle of their marriage proposal. Even more shocking, both Connor and Jack didnt know the other existed. The party transforms into a true Dynasty moment as Connor and Jack storm out in opposite directions. Torn between the two, Jesse doesnt know whom to go to first. The couples snarky best friend, Patrick, takes charge. He shoos Jesse after Connor and then rushes after the boy himself. Patricks love for his friends, his pity for the confused boy before him, and the blunt Jack pulls from his backpack all help Patrick convince the boy to stay. Meanwhile, Jesse is less successful. Connor packs a bag and goesacross the street to stay with the neighbor, Dale. Tense weeks go by as Jesse and Jack try to rebuild their relationship. However, even as father and son make progress, Jesse cant seem to patch things up with Connor. The couple continues to drift further and further apart. Dale watches as Connor acquires a glut of new habits going days without bathing, strewing trash, and drinking continuously until he cant take anymore. Dale teams up with Patrick (a la I Love Lucy) to step in, intervene, and accelerate the healing process. The plan works! The couple reunites, Jack gets back on track, wedding arrangements are made, and everyone blends into one big happy family. Until Theres a knock at the door. Its two weeks before the ceremony, and the sons girlfriend, Cara, is standing there. Scared, alone, and VERY pregnant. At this pivotal moment, can this group of gay men convince the straight boy to man up? Will the coming baby get more presents than the happy couple? And, more importantly, can Jesse endure his new title: Grandpa? What makes Timing unique is that it is based on actual events from the authors life. This personal touch strikes a chord of realism while remaining laugh-out-loud funny. "Timing" is currently in Development as a feature film, and seeking production partners.
