Why Him? (2016)
Ned ein überfürsorgliche Vater, will in den Ferien gemeinsam mit seiner Familie seine Tochter am College besuchen. Schnell wird der Trip zum Albtraum, als Ned seinen vermeintlich zukünftigen Schwiegersohn Laird kennenlernt, ein gutmütiger, aber etwas veschrobener reicher junger Mann. Ned, der sich als Geschäftsmann aus einer Kleinstadt in dieser glamourösen schnelllebigen Welt nicht besonders zu Hause fühlt, entwickelt direkt eine Rivalität zu dem jungen Technik-Genie und nimmt sich vor, seine Tochter um jeden Preis vor dem zu bewahren, was in seinen Augen der größte Fehler ihres Lebens werden könnte.
