Not Under My RoofMother-in-law vetoes the bachelor bash, then books a better one

The story

Our exclusive: wedding week, one nervous groom and the bride's mother, who stands up at the family gathering and cancels his bachelor party flat out. He takes it like a gentleman and heads off to sulk. But the house empties fast. Her daughter, his fiancee, naps upstairs after a boozy brunch, a nap she has announced to everyone, and the mother-in-law lowers her voice, waves him over and promises a private surprise. She insists that everything remain among relatives, and very hushed. Our desk would like to know what exactly counts as family business.

The twist

Episode 2 opens with a pair of visitors: the mother-in-law's friend Bianca, who also happens to be the bride's godmother, is already in the room. The groom stammers that his fiancee is ten steps overhead. The hostess answers that this is exactly why everybody must be quiet. Nobody here is leaving.

Developing story

The paid episodes decide whether this groom reaches the altar with a clear conscience, or whether any wedding week can survive a bride's mother who has a plan and a houseful of company.
