Plot summary
Jamie Grover (Kimberly J. Brown) is an only child who has always wanted out from the constant attention her parents give her. Her wish is finally granted when she finds out her mother is pregnant, but when she turns out to have quintuplets, Jamie's life changes in ways she had never imagined. She discovers she might not want the same things her parents want for her, but nonetheless, her parents focus all of their attention on her baby brothers and sisters. But when one of her brothers gets terribly ill she discovers that she really doesn't mind the babies, and that she does have the courage to let her parents know she has dreams of her own.
Throughout the movie, Jamie will fool the audience to make sure they're with her. (Counts as breaking the fourth wall). This is the list of things she did in order:
- While showing them around Milford, her hometown, she showed one block to the east was The Statue Of Liberty, which wasn't really there.
- She described her school like going to the circus, with a man breathing fire, a clown for a math teacher, balloons and confetti all around the gym, etc. However, she admitted it was like any other school.
- When her parents are deciding the future jobs for the Quints, they tell Jamie to have fun and relax. However, her father told her it is more important than ever that they stick to "The Plan."
- During parent teacher conferences, her parents came and more confetti fell as her teacher told her that she got a A in his class. However, they didn't show up, instead taking care of the Quints.
- When she told her parents her art was in the main section at the art fair, they didn't seem to care and said they were never happy about the things she did. That was another lie.
- She had the governor's driver take her, Zoe and Brad to the ice cream parlor but they actually went to the art show.
- After her art won the art fair, she walked on stage and money fell all over, while the song "Money All Around Me" was sung. This didn't happen. Instead, it suddenly reversed [with a few seconds of speech being rewound], the real events then were shown.
- At the very end of the movie, she said that her mom was now pregnant again with septuplets, which are seven. She then said "Come on, haven't I taught you anything?" and held up a picture saying "Made you Look!" that she drew in bubble letters.
