The Bad Orphan centers on Jessica and Karl, loving parents to Rhiannon, who after years of trying to add to their family, are elated to adopt Gabby, an 8-year-old orphan born with personal challenges. Their ideas of a perfect family come into question when they discover that Gabby is a troubled little girl, and the family begins to believe things aren’t what they seem.
