Storks have moved on from delivering babies to packages for a global internet retail giant, Cornerstore.com. Junior, the company's top delivery stork, is about to be promoted when he accidentally activates the old, dormant baby-making machine, producing an adorable, unauthorized baby girl.

Fearing he'll lose his promotion, Junior must deliver the baby in secret with the help of Tulip, the only human on Stork Mountain, who was never delivered herself.

Plot:

Junior, a high-achieving stork working for Cornerstore.com, is tasked by his boss, Hunter, to fire Tulip, an orphaned human who accidentally caused the destruction of the mailroom years ago. Instead, Junior gives Tulip a job in the "letters from kids" department. When a letter from a young boy named Nate Gardner requesting a baby reaches Tulip, she accidentally activates the dormant baby-making machine, creating a new baby girl.

To avoid Hunter finding out and jeopardizing his promotion, Junior agrees to help Tulip deliver the baby to Nate's family. Their perilous journey involves evading a pack of wolves led by Alpha and Beta, navigating through various landscapes, and confronting the emotional complexities of delivering a baby after years of delivering inanimate packages. The adventure ultimately reignites the storks' forgotten passion for baby delivery, leading to a heartwarming resolution where Nate gets his sister and the storks resume their original purpose of bringing babies to families.
