She can't make a baby without a husband! Or can she?

After witnessing the miracle of birth, self-determined spinster Miss Penelope Crone is having second thoughts about swearing off marriage. She wants—no, she needs—to experience the blessed event herself. Dear God, she's practically thirty! Time is running out!
