A 21-year-old woman, in the process of moving out of her student house, found herself in a tense situation with her landlords. The landlords, an elderly couple, and their son, have an odd arrangement in managing the property. The son handles the lease and advertising, while the parents, Sean and Mary, collect rent. While Sean is a nice man, Mary is known for being rude, nosy, and intrusive. The drama unfolds when the landlords let themselves in without notice, leading to a heated confrontation.
