Watch Look Who's Talking Online

Mollie Jensen (Kirsty Alley) is an accountant living and working in New York City. The latest client she has been assigned by her firm is a charmingly-handsome but shallow womanising executive named Albert (George Segal) who seduces her and although married embarks on an affair with Mollie, promising to leave his wife for her. Mollie insists their relationship has to stop, however succumbing to temptation Mollie has sex with him and unbeknown to her, she becomes pregnant with his child.

After realising she is pregnant she informs Albert who takes the news well and again promises to leave his wife and raise the baby with her. Until then, Mollie decides to tell her eccentric and over-bearing parents (Olympia Dukakis and Louis Heckerling) that there is no father and that she became pregnant via a sperm donor.

Mollie continues her relationship with Albert as the pregnancy develops, however she fears he's seeing another woman, Melissa (Joy Boushel). Later when Mollie and her best friend Rona (Twink Caplan) are shopping Mollie finds Albert in a clinch with Melissa. Angry and upset, a heart-broken Mollie storms off in a rage while the fight causes her to suddenly go into labour. When she hails a cab the driver James Ubriacco (John Travolta) realises the seriousness of the situation and speeds off to the hospital. Upon reaching the hospital, the nurses' confuse him for being the father of Mollie's baby and he feels inclined to stay. Mollie gives birth to a son she names Michael "Mikey" (voiced by Bruce Willis).

A few days after Mikey is brought home, Mollie receives a visit from James, where he returns the purse she left behind in his taxi. James meets Mikey, and they seem to enjoy each others company. Over the next month or so, Mollie is dealing with being a single parent and Mikey is becoming used to his new world when she discovers that James has been using her address to keep his grandfather (Abe Vigoda) in a nursing home in the local area. She confronts James and he offers to baby-sit Mikey if she lets him continue to use the address, which she agrees to.

Mollie starts dating again, but quickly realises that none of the men she has been seeing are good enough for Mikey and one night she lets her guard down and almost sleeps with James; however after imagining what life would be like if she married him, she asks him to leave, despite James telling her he loves both her and Mikey.

Soon after, Mollie is forced to help Albert with his taxes, when he pleads her to let him see Mikey (who he mistakenly calls "Mickey"). Mollie agrees to let Albert see Mikey that night however forgets to inform James, who is babysitting Mikey. A fight ensues when Albert arrives claiming to be Mikey's father as James does not believe this possible as Mollie told him Mikey was concieved by a sperm donor. James and Mollie get into an argument and he leaves. Later Mollie takes Mikey to see Albert where he shows that he has not changed and she proceeds to destroy Albert's office.

Mollie later receives a call from the nursing home James' grandfather is staying at complaining about his behaviour. She explains to the manager why James' grandfather's behavior had been so bad and the manager agrees to let him stay believing Mollie to be James' wife. Mollie runs into James outside the office (who had overheard her talking to the manager) and he thanks her. After Mikey sees a yellow taxi cab outside the nursing home and believing it to be James, he proceeds to leave and ends up standing in the middle of open traffic, looking for James' taxicab. James and Mollie rescue Mikey from the street and when Mikey calls James "Da-da!" Mollie sees that James is not only perfect for Mikey, but is also perfect for her as well and they kiss, with Mikey looking on happily.

The end credits roll as we see an older Mikey and James walking through a hospital to see Mollie, who has just given birth to Mikey's half-sister, Julie, setting the sequel, Look Who's Talking Too, in motion.

Much of the film is based on sexuality which is why it is rated pg-13.
