Even though she has recently married a kind-hearted man, mousy Ruth (Nicholle Tom) remains unable to break her dysfunctional relationship with her overbearing mother, Maylene (Christine Lahti), convincing new husband Artie (Stephen E. Miller) that the couple should live in her mother's house. As the three settle into new roles, Ruth learns to stand up to her mother's insults and passive-aggressive needling.
