Doug Heffernan puts in a long day's work delivering parcels and comes home each night to his loving wife, Carrie; unfortunately, he also comes home to his wacko father-in-law, Arthur.

Doug tries to prove he would protect Carrie in a life-or-death situation after he makes a dumb move while on a rough plane ride.

Carrie asks Doug to be a witness at her boss's trial, but then fears he won't be professional in the courtroom.

Spence's new girlfriend Becky, a trainee chef, leads Doug into temptation with her culinary delights, to the annoyance of Carrie.

Doug spoils Carrie's plans for a romantic weekend when he organizes an outing to Atlantic City; his boss ends up joining them.
