- trying to make a good first impression
- getting upset at the lack of respect his father-in-law shows for his own son
- trying to make polite conversation with his father-in-law
- bonding with his mother-in-law by asking her for embarrassing stories about his husband’s childhood
- actually making a good impression by saving the day
+ the aftermath: aggressively taking care of his dumb husband who is physically unable to rest for more than two seconds
