My Son Stays Quiet as His Wife Insults Me — But He Soon Teaches Her a Lesson in Front of Guests
Kate is eager to spend her first Christmas with her son John and his wife Liz, but tensions quickly rise when Liz criticizes Kate’s cooking. Kate has always been the one to cook big family meals, but since her husband passed, it’s been harder. Still, she’s determined to make Christmas special with her signature roast dinner.
However, when Liz enters the kitchen, she suggests ordering takeout, claiming not everyone enjoys Kate’s food. This blindsides Kate, especially when John stays silent, not defending his mother. Kate is hurt but pushes on, continuing with the meal.
At dinner, John reveals Liz’s comment about ordering food, and the family stands up for Kate’s cooking. Liz is embarrassed, and later, she apologizes to Kate, explaining that she was feeling insecure about her relationship with John and his love for Kate’s food. Kate, understanding but still hurt, offers to teach Liz how to cook like her.
Kate realizes Liz’s comment wasn’t meant to be malicious but stemmed from insecurity. Despite the tension, Kate is willing to help Liz build her own relationship with John’s cooking and feel included in the family.
In another story, after losing her husband, Eliza hopes to make her son happy by meeting his girlfriend. She’s excited to prepare for her arrival, but when they finally meet, things don’t go as planned.
