16.25 min. (Short Subject)
Newlyweds Eddie & Betty (Joe DeRita and Christine McIntyre) move into their honeymoon house, only to find her relatives waiting to move in for a few months. The in-laws are soon eating everything in sight, and taking over the household. Friend Dick comes up with the idea for he and his wife (Dorothy Granger) to pose as Eddie's relatives, alumni of a sanitarium, to scare Betty's family away. The plan works, all too well to the newlyweds' regret.
