Motherhood Without Gratitude - Episode 3

On a rushed morning, a mother who has spent ten years waking and preparing her children refuses to get up—she's on strike. Her kids, Sophia, Julia and Zac, lash out: they demand breakfast, mock her as lazy, and insist on bringing Aunt Candice to replace her. The father hears the complaint and, after brief hesitation, agrees to let Candice move in. The mother confronts the emotional cost of caregiving, declaring she will stop humiliating herself if sacrifice draws no gratitude. The episode closes with Candice approved to join the household and the mother's vow unresolved.
