Summary

We’re family. We don’t have to like each other.

Things are never easy for Ellis when the family gets together. A dad who doesn’t get him, a cousin who can do no wrong, a (not-so-passive) aggressive grandma, his dad’s latest intolerable girlfriend and a grandpa in an urn are just some of the things Ellis has to contend with. When it begins to become tradition at these occasions for true feelings to be unearthed, is it finally time for Ellis to cut ties?
