Based on actual events, The Specimen is the hilariously embarrassing tale of a man, a public restroom, and his intimate moment with a specimen cup. In this less than ideal backdrop, he has to battle his performance anxiety, overcome interruptions, and decide how far he's truly willing to go to become a dad. This is going to be awkward.
