2004. The neon buzz of a cheap motel fades into the stark, silent reality of a sunlit apartment. Billie Joe, icon of 'American Idiot', stands frozen, his green eyes wide with panic. In his arms rests a newborn, a biological accident from a night of haze and strangers. The DNA test lies on the table, irrefutable. He is a rock god, not a father. The world expects rebellion; he is holding a life he doesn't remember creating. Terrified and utterly unprepared, the punk legend stares at the infant, the weight of fatherhood crashing down on him.
