It seemed Celeste’s life was on a perfect fairy tale path. She excelled in a demanding job she loved with promotions forthcoming. Then there was her soul mate, Kyle. Theirs was a relationship on the fast track to optimal bliss or at least it seemed. No one could have foreseen the degree to which one person could change the whole trajectory of Celeste’s life, forever. But Kyle’s mother, Paula, had it in for Celeste the moment she laid eyes on the girl who would take away her one and only son. But Paula was not about to let that happen. So, it didn’t. One year after the whole Kyle/Paula debacle and on her way to the most important meeting of her career, Celeste literally bumps into Paula at the airport. Due to bad weather, all flights are cancelled forcing Celeste and Paula to share the only remaining rental car in the airport from NYC to Washington, D.C. In a truly unexpected turn of events, Celeste discovers that Paula is hiding a major secret from everyone, including her son, Kyle. Burdened with this heavy information, Celeste begins to soften towards Paula all the while trying to convince her to tell Kyle the truth she is hiding from him. Paula slowly realizes that she misjudged Celeste and may have made a mistake getting between her and Kyle. As the two begin to create a bond of understanding, the inclement weather conditions force them to take a detour to Paula’s cousin’s house for the night. To both their surprise, there are additional house guests for the evening, including Kyle and his new fiancée! And to be expected, the proverbial crap hits the fan.Stars: Renée Elise Goldberry, Lynn Whitfield, J. Alphonse Nicholson, Lisa Arrindell, Joe Holt, Rachel Nicks, Ben Rappaport, Lily Cowles
