When Jeremy and Nina returned from vacation, they expected peace — not chaos. Their home looked like a frat house, and sprawled on the couch was Ted, Jeremy’s freeloading older brother. Turns out, their parents had told Ted to move in while they were gone — without asking.

Jeremy’s confrontation with Ted turned ugly, with their parents backing Ted and brushing off his entitled behavior. Nina, furious and unwilling to live with Ted, packed a bag and left for her sister’s house. Jeremy promised to fix things.

Determined to drive Ted out without a direct fight, Jeremy made his brother’s life miserable: no Wi-Fi, ice-cold showers, only healthy food, and loud morning workouts. Within days, Ted cracked and left for their parents’ house.

Jeremy cleaned up, cooked for Nina, and called her home. He also told his parents Ted was their problem now. Though they were furious, they made Ted live in the garage and get a job. Jeremy didn’t care — he had his home and wife back, and peace was finally restored.
