Our generous protagonist has been treating his fiancée’s family to dinner every other week, but when he discovers their habit of leaving only a $1 tip, he decides enough is enough! He informs his fiancée that he’ll no longer be footing the bill for their meals, and she reluctantly agrees. However, her family doesn’t take the news well, accusing him of being ungrateful and suggesting that his wealthy family should continue paying for their meals.
