Excitement surrounded Ellen and David as their daughter Lisa’s wedding approached. Lisa, a doctor, earned a house from her parents for her achievements. When Lisa proposed her fiancé Ric moving in, Ellen and David hesitated but agreed. A family dinner turned disastrous when Ric’s parents hinted at not inviting Ellen and David to the wedding and making them foot the bill.

Disturbed by this revelation, David and their daughter Leah abruptly left. David overheard Ric’s parents planning to exclude them and make them pay for the wedding. Ellen, shocked, confronted Lisa’s in-laws the next day, but they revealed they were living with Lisa and Ric and wouldn’t be invited to the wedding.

Unable to comprehend the situation, Ellen urged Lisa to reconsider but to no avail. With the house still in Ellen’s name, she gave them 10 days to leave; when they refused, Ellen and David sold it, teaching them “a lesson in boundaries.” Lisa moved to a small apartment, and the family dynamics shifted, leaving Ellen questioning if her actions were justified.
