An up-and-coming, LA-based actor is about to have his “big break” meeting with a star-director when he abruptly gets news from his casual-girlfriend, Rachel, that she’s pregnant, unplanned, which begins a twist-filled night that escalates to an explosive climax between Dae and Rachel.

“…who may hold the answers…” – well does he or she? Clarity and definitive descriptions will sell your concept more than vague or suggestive statements.
Other than that, what is the inciting incident and what is her goal? These are the most important elements in a logline and are currently missing – checkout the ‘Formula’ tab on the top bar.
