    Today on campus, it’s 1985. Only, we’re not in America, we’re in Tokyo, Japan.

    In this heartfelt true story, a young couple, each from different parts of America, form an intimate relationship while studying overseas. When they suddenly learn she is pregnant, the two must make a life-altering decision 6,000 miles from home.

    We think this episode is unique since the entire experience is told from the man’s point of view. And that’s a voice and perspective about this subject that’s rarely heard.

It will take an iron gut to decide if being the life-of-the-party sorority girl is the person she wants to become.
