During a visit to her mother-in-law Linda, Macy faces relentless criticism about her cooking, appearance, and how she treats her husband Chandler. When Macy finally defends herself, she becomes the villain. An unexpected discovery at her father’s house reveals the reasons behind it all, changing her perspective.
On a sunny holiday evening, Chandler drives with Macy in tense silence. Chandler sings “Take Me Home, Country Roads,” hoping to lighten the mood, but Macy remains irritated. “Turn it down…” she mutters, reflecting her dread of visiting Linda.
At Linda’s house, tension escalates. Linda criticizes Macy subtly, prompting Macy to retreat to the kitchen. “She always finds something wrong… Either I cook wrong, clean wrong, talk wrong…” Macy laments to Chandler.
Macy reaches her breaking point during dinner, arguing with Linda. Chandler intervenes, but the conflict leaves everyone upset. Macy leaves and visits her late father’s house, seeking solace.
In the attic, Macy finds letters revealing that Linda had loved her father in their youth. Realizing Linda’s hostility stems from old wounds, Macy returns to Linda’s house.
“Forgive me, and my father,” Macy whispers, hugging Linda. This act of understanding and forgiveness marks the beginning of a new, friendlier relationship between them.
