Der arbeitslose, aber ambitionierte 24-jährige Ben Russell bringt seine Freundin Cassie über Weihnachten das erste Mal mit nach Hause, in eine Kleinstadt in Oregon, um seine Familie kennenzulernen. Schon der erste Abend wird in Breakup Season zur Katastrophe: Die Familie triggert genau die falschen Punkte und so kommt es zu einem großen Streit zwischen Ben und Cassie, der in ihrer Trennung resultiert. Cassie würde am liebsten sofort zurückfahren, jedoch macht das Wetter eine Abreise unmöglich. So müssen sie in dieser wunderlichen Konstellation das Weihnachtsfest gemeinsam feiern.

00:00What have you told them about me?
00:07I told them everything.
00:09My big brother Ben is currently in route with his new girlfriend Cassie, who is going to
00:14be spending all of Christmas break with us.
00:16A special welcome to Cassie.
00:18Oh, thank you.
00:20Yay!
00:21Cassie, did you get enough to eat?
00:24Sorry yeah, no I just don't eat meat.
00:25Did we know this?
00:26Ben?
00:27Right.
00:28Sorry.
00:29What are you?
00:30Just the environmental impact.
00:31Did you fly here today?
00:32Hold up there.
00:33Whoa, no, no, no.
00:34I'm just a little confused on her position, so I'm trying to ask a question to Claire.
00:35This isn't working.
00:36What about all this Christmas stuff?
00:37I think I need to be with my family.
00:38I-84 is closed because of multiple crashes.
00:39The next available flight is on December 27th.
00:57We brought Cassie all the way here.
01:00They break up day one, and now she's stuck with us all of Christmas break.
01:04My DMs are open for survival tips.
01:09I can't resolve it while she's stuck here, or worse, try to get over her.
01:14You're going to spend a long time hung up on all the stuff that you wish you would have
01:17done better or different.
01:18You'll be playing stories in your head over and over again.
01:22Okay, what do I do with that?
01:26Don't set me up like this.
01:27You have fun with everyone else.
01:28No matter what I do, I just keep giving you the wrong impression.
01:32I'm not.
01:33I'm not.
01:34I'm not trying to get back together with you.
01:35But you are!
01:36Slow but steady, you know?
01:38Boy, if life was as steady as that, huh?
01:41Ah, gee.
01:44Woo!
01:52Why do you want to be around somebody who clearly doesn't want to be with you?
02:06I don't know what to do.
02:07You know, sometimes the best thing to do is nothing at all.
02:09I can't just do nothing.
02:11Buddha did.
02:12He just sat around.
02:13Got free rice.
