“YOU CAN’T GET PREGNANT” – Bridget drops shocking news to Electra after examining her
The film begins with a sweeping shot of Los Angeles at dawn, the city glowing like a promise nobody can keep. Inside a private women’s clinic tucked between luxury boutiques, Dr. Bridget Forrester moves through the halls with the calm precision of someone who has seen every kind of heartbreak—and learned to carry it without flinching. Today, however, is different. Today she is waiting for a patient whose arrival will shake the foundations of several lives.
That patient is Electra Montel, a rising model with a meteoric career and a secret she has shared with no one: she thinks she’s pregnant. The tests she took at home gave mixed results. The symptoms feel real. Her body feels different—changed, unfamiliar. Her boyfriend, a charismatic actor named Levi Rourke, has been distant ever since the scandal involving his ex. Electra believes that a baby might be the one thing that finally stabilizes the relationship.
When she arrives at Bridget’s clinic, cameras flash outside. Paparazzi have caught wind of her appointment, turning a simple checkup into a media circus. Inside, Electra tries to calm herself, insisting she only wants clarity. Bridget—professional, warm, steady—assures her they’ll get to the truth.
The film shifts into its first emotional twist when Bridget performs a full exam and ultrasound. Electra waits, heart pounding, rehearsing how she will break the “good news” to Levi. But when Bridget returns with the results, she doesn’t bring a smile. She brings devastation.
Her voice is gentle but unflinching:
“Electra… you can’t get pregnant.”
The words freeze the world. Electra stares, unable to process what she’s hearing. Bridget explains that scarring from a medical emergency Electra experienced years earlier—an incident Electra barely remembers because it was brushed off by a doctor at the time—has made natural conception impossible. She has been living her life believing her future was wide open, not knowing a door had already been locked behind her.
Electra collapses into shock. Bridget tries to console her, promising treatment options, alternative paths, second opinions. But Electra hears nothing. Her entire sense of identity evaporates in a single moment. The paparazzi outside, the career pressures, the unstable relationship—everything she thought she could fix with motherhood—now feels like a cruel joke.
The spoiler deepens when Electra storms out of the clinic, desperate for air, and ends up in Levi’s mansion hours earlier than he expected. She imagines he will comfort her. Instead, she overhears him on the phone, telling someone he can’t “handle another meltdown from Electra.” He still thinks she’s coming to him with pregnancy news. He never imagined she would come with tragedy.
Electra confronts him, but instead of support, he panics. His own secret unravels: months ago he paid a tabloid to bury a story about a violent altercation with an ex. Another scandal could end his career—and he fears Electra’s medical news will be twisted into a narrative about him “breaking her.” Levi makes the unforgivable mistake of asking her to stay quiet about her diagnosis. Not for her sake. For his.
Electra walks out.
The film shifts into a psychological thriller as she unravels alone. She replays old memories, suddenly recognizing signs she never wanted to see: the doctor who dismissed her pain years ago; the partner who only wanted her when she was flawless; the career built on perfection that never allowed her to be human.
Meanwhile, Bridget battles her own turmoil. The test results don’t add up. There’s a pattern of damage in Electra’s scans that suggests medical negligence—possibly even malpractice from the doctor who treated her years ago. When Bridget investigates, she uncovers something far darker: Electra’s previous physician was involved in a series of botched procedures that were covered up by the hospital board.
As Bridget gathers evidence, Electra spirals into paranoia, convinced her entire life was built on lies. The paparazzi find her again. Rumors explode online—pregnancy, miscarriage, mental breakdown, career collapse. Each headline pushes her closer to the edge.
In the film’s final act, Bridget rushes to find Electra before she disappears completely. She locates her standing on the roof of a downtown building, staring at the city that once adored her. Bridget tells her the truth, the real truth—not only about her infertility but about the doctor who stole her future long before she even knew she wanted one.
Electra doesn’t break. She ignites.
The movie ends with Electra walking away from the rooftop, Bridget beside her, determination replacing despair. This isn’t a story about losing a future.
It’s a story about reclaiming one.
