Four couples, who are also best friends since college, converge in a house in the mountains for a week-long retreat. • The first couple, attorney Dianne and pediatrician Terry, argue a lot because Dianne refuses to stop working. She takes calls on her phone instead of talking with Terry. • The second couple consists of hair salon owner Angela and former pro football player Marcus. Angela constantly argues with Marcus and anyone who interrupts them. • The third couple is housewife Sheila and entrepreneur Mike. Sheila has to get off the plane taking them there because of her weight and the requirement to purchase two seats while Mike continues flirting on the flight with her single friend, Trina. • The fourth couple consists of psychologist Patricia and architect Gavin. After everyone finds out what happened to Sheila, the other wives berate Mike for letting her drive alone. However, he shows disregard for her and disparages her weight. Providence leads Sheila to Sheriff Troy Jackson's office. Due to the weather, the roads are closed for the night and she has to spend the night in the office. That night, Angela catches Mike going to Trina's bedroom. Sheila arrives at the retreat house the following morning with Troy in tow. She introduces Troy to the others, revealing that she invited him to breakfast. During breakfast, the couples argue, as usual. During an argument at dinner, Angela exposes Mike and Trina's affair. In turn, Mike reveals the other couples' hidden secrets: Marcus contracted
VD after cheating on Angela, Dianne had her tubes tied after her daughter was born without Terry's knowledge, Terry got a DNA test on his and Diane’s daughter because he was unsure he was the father, and Gavin criticized Patricia for not protecting their young son in a fatal car accident a year prior. Angela admits giving Marcus the STD from her own cheating. Enraged, he tries choking her while the others pull him away. Mike says that he wants a divorce, and Sheila smashes a bottle over his head, knocking him out. Sheila checks into a hotel to recover from her divorce and discovers that Mike drained her bank account. She is distraught when Troy visits her. He takes her up to a mountain where she cries and mourns the loss of her love. The other couples head back home. Eventually, Patricia breaks down and confesses to Gavin that she was only trying to be perfect. They agree to face the situation and reconcile. Angela and Marcus are still fighting, especially when Marcus' ex-girlfriend and baby mama, Keisha, shows up at the salon, and disrespects Angela. This happens again when the couple arrives at her house for the kids. Marcus eventually stands up to both women and frightens Angela into realizing she is wrecking their life with her constant arguing by disappearing for days. On Terry's birthday at their home, Dianne accuses him of wanting her to be a housewife, while he calls her out for neglecting him and their daughter. He moves out, feeling that Dianne constantly prioritizes her career over them. Patricia meets up with Dianne and Angela, moping over their husbands, and gives them counseling about the need to get back on track: making a list of the good and bad things their husbands have done. In the mountains, Sheila settles into her new life with a new job at the general store owned by Troy's father. Angela cooks dinner for Marcus after finishing with her list. Although he suspects she is trying to poison him at first, they reunite and set new conditions. Dianne begs Terry to come back home after crying over her list. They reconcile as well. The couples later converge at a gala celebration for an award received by Patricia. She, Dianne, and Angela are elated when Sheila arrives, re-introduces Troy as her new husband, and says that she lost weight with his help. Although Mike is still with Trina, he tries to weasel his way back into Sheila's good graces, but she turns him down. Patricia encloses a confession of her love for Gavin and a message of loving, respecting, and trusting God in her acceptance speech. ==Cast==
