Summary: Meredith Parker has made the journey to Bolton, her twins{u2019} college, dozens of times. This weekend, though, is different. Dawn and Cody are about to graduate and move away to separate corners of the country. Meredith is proud of her kids, and she{u2019}s proud of herself for helping them get this far. She just never expected the tidal wave of emotions sweeping over her - or the tangled family dynamics complicating everything. Meredith doesn{u2019}t miss her cheating ex, Roger, one bit, but sitting across from his very young, very gorgeous second wife threatens to unravel the graceful facade she{u2019}s trying so hard to maintain. Joel, Meredith{u2019}s husband, can see she{u2019}s feeling the first pangs of empty-nest syndrome and wants to soften the blow - but he{u2019}s distracted by a familiar face. Meanwhile, Cody and Dawn are sitting on their own secrets, and Roger{u2019}s new wife, Lily, wonders if she really wants to be a part of this wild, mixed-up family. As tensions simmer with each passing appetizer tray, Meredith{u2019}s vision of the perfect weekend goes up in flames. But before the party{u2019}s over, as best behavior gives way to brutal honesty, there{u2019}ll be a chance for this new blended family to truly come together - in all its messy and glorious imperfection
