Storyline

Carlos and Allison used to say yes to everything in life, and also when they met and later got married. But then they moved to suburbia and had three kids, their lives became a long line of no. Their oldest daughter, Katie, 14, gets no from Allison to going to a concert with friends. Carlos also says no to employees at work at Icarus Technologies. Allison is trying to return to the labor market but gets no at job interviews. At Katie's school, Carlos and Allison are shown Katie's project on video. It compares "Mommy Dearest" to Stalin and Mussolini. Later, the guidance counselor etc. gives advice on why he's so relaxed despite having six kids. He gives them a YES Day on which he and his wife, with a few ground rules, say yes to everything. Allison agrees to a 24 hour YES/Fun Day after seeing an over 15-year-old photo of her skydiving. Will it be apocalyptic, as she first feared, or a wild and fun adventure for the five of them?—Scott Filtenborg
