How Sweet It Is

David Henderson’s family is preparing for his educational trip to France. His mother, Jenny, faces challenges with her husband Grif, who is hesitant to participate.

In a bid to get Grif onboard, Jenny cleverly highlights his skills as a professional photographer. She convinces him that documenting their travels could bring benefits to his photography business.

The family boards an ocean liner, arranged through a somewhat dubious travel agent named Gilbert. Their initial excitement quickly turns to disappointment when they realize the cramped living conditions onboard.

As the family settles in, the atmosphere becomes tense due to a nerve-wracking emergency drill. The experience leaves everyone uneasy and contributes to the growing discomfort of the trip.

Upon arriving in the enchanting city of Paris, Jenny decides to separate from Grif and the students. She is eager to explore the city independently, believing she knows the way to their hotel on the Riviera.

While wandering, Jenny unexpectedly discovers a stunning mansion owned by the affluent lawyer, Phillipe Maspere. Despite feeling out of place, Jenny’s charisma wins her an invitation to stay at the estate.

While in Paris, Grif finds himself drawn to one of the American chaperones. However, his feelings take a backseat when he sees a newspaper clipping of Jenny, sparking concern and alarm.

Concerned for Jenny's safety after seeing the newspaper, Grif takes drastic measures. He commandeers a stolen school bus and sets off on a wildly reckless journey across the country to find his wife.

Grif arrives at Phillipe's lavish estate, emotions running high as he spots Jenny by the pool. His shock quickly escalates into outrage, leading to a heated confrontation with Phillipe.

In a light-hearted twist, Jenny chases after Grif atop the butler’s tricycle. Their comedic escape is cut short when law enforcement intervenes, having been alerted to the situation.

In a surreal turn of events, Jenny finds herself locked up alongside sex workers. The group eventually gets bailed out by a charming pimp who escorts them to a plush hotel, adding to the chaos.

Amidst the confusion, David unexpectedly shows up at the brothel. The sight of their son leaves Jenny and Grif in utter disbelief, amplifying the absurdity of their predicament.

Through a series of bizarre and chaotic circumstances, the family must navigate the surreal situation they find themselves in. Each twist tests their resolve and unity as they strive to reunite.

Despite the series of misadventures, the family ultimately manages to come together. They prepare for their journey home, having learned valuable lessons about love and the bond they share.
