Air mattress facade
A mother, her daughter, and the daughter’s boyfriend go through a huge ordeal to inflate a big, awkward, half-broken air mattress to put next to the daughter’s bed. This is supposedly for her boyfriend to sleep on while they’re visiting her mother’s house.
Yet every single person involved with this – the mother, the daughter, and the boyfriend – secretly know that he’s not actually going to sleep on it. It’s all theatrics so the mother doesn’t have to openly acknowledge that the two are sleeping together.
