When Raphael Del Gado arrives in town to make a movie, the Hubbards and Buells invite him to a dinner party – which soon becomes a family talent show.

The Hubbards and the Buells, battling over two theater tickets they got in the mail, carry their feud to the theater, where their antics provide a livelier show than the one on the stage.

To cut down on their wives’ meddling, Herb and Roger suggest that they get jobs. Realizing that all their “suggesting, recommending, and advising” might just be too much, they decide to try it.

Going to a store to return a duplicate wedding gift for the kids, the mothers, who have been banned from their own phones for continually calling the honeymooning couple, spend $15.70 talking to them on a payphone, unknowingly getting locked in the store when it closes. With only one dime left, they accidentally reach a sleeping bullfighter in Barcelona, whom they beg to relay their SOS to their husbands. Madness ensues when a security guards finds...
