We meet Leah and Graham. Leah is Jewish but has always loved the idea of Christmas, so when Graham invites her to celebrate Christmas with his family and meet his parents, she jumps at the chance.

First, they visit her parents for a Hanukkah celebration, and it’s a great time. Graham, however, warns her not to expect too much when they visit his family—just in case she’s disappointed. But when they arrive at his parents’ house, it’s a full-on Christmas wonderland. Leah is blown away—it’s everything she’d hoped for.

But then… Graham’s mom happens. She’s super serious, very intense about her schedule, doesn’t allow anyone to just rip open presents, and insists on fancy Christmas pajamas instead of fun ones. Leah quickly realizes that Graham’s mom is going to make things… difficult. Case in point: she even asks Leah to change her Christmas sweater.

The tension builds as Leah continues to clash with Graham’s mom, and Graham finds himself awkwardly stuck in the middle—handling it poorly, to say the least.

Leah’s big moment arrives during the gingerbread house competition. She absolutely crushes it, complete with a smoking chimney. And it’s clear that Graham’s mom is not amused. Leah turns to Graham, like, Why didn’t you warn me to let your mom win? And Graham just shrugs and says, Maybe I didn’t want her to win!

The awkwardness keeps escalating. Leah accidentally breaks some vases that Graham’s ex-girlfriend, Julia, made and sold at a Christmas market. And then—of course—Julia shows up to hang out. AWKWARD.

Things go from bad to worse when Leah’s snowman is less than Pinterest-perfect. Graham tries to lighten the mood with a snowball fight, but Leah accidentally nails his mom in the face. Yikes.

Later, Graham tries to reassure Leah, telling her he wants her to stay. But then things get even weirder when his sister announces she’s dropping out of business school to start an artisanal pickle company. The family is not thrilled. And to top it all off, Graham’s dad drops a bombshell, saying he’s been waiting for Graham to return home and join the family bank.

After dinner, Graham brushes it off: Oh, my dad always says stuff like that. Don’t worry, I’m not moving.

On Christmas Eve, Graham gives Leah… a gift basket. She’s like, Oh, this is… nice. Meanwhile, she’s gone all out, giving him a memory book filled with every single date they’ve ever been on.

But then, a twist: Graham’s mom suddenly does a 180 and starts showering Leah with praise, calling her so wonderful. Even Julia apologizes for overstepping. Things are really turning around for Leah!

Except… she can’t find Graham anywhere. She uses Find My Friends and sees he’s at the general store. When she gets there, she’s stunned to see her parents are there too.

They all end up back at Graham’s family’s house, where Graham announces, I didn’t just get you a gift basket for Christmas—I also got you this. And then, boom—he pulls out a ring and proposes! Big kisses, big celebration.

The next morning, everyone wakes up on Christmas Day and celebrates together as one big, happy family.
